U+9AE2 "髢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
髢
U+9AE2 "髢" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that primarily refers to a type of wig or false hairpiece used in ancient East Asian cultures, often worn by women to supplement or adorn their natural hair. The character combines the radical for "hair" (髟) with a phonetic component (也), reflecting its etymological connection to hair adornment. In classical texts and historical contexts, 髢 appears in descriptions of elaborate hairstyles and cultural practices, particularly during the Tang and Song dynasties, where wigs were symbols of status and fashion. In modern usage, the character is less common but still recognized in specialized discussions of historical costume and traditional beauty customs.
