髵
U+9AF5 "髵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to the hair on the sides of the face, often interpreted as whiskers or sideburns. It consists of the radical for hair or fur (髟) combined with a phonetic component, and its usage is found in classical and literary Chinese texts to describe facial hair or bristly growth. While not commonly used in modern everyday writing, it retains relevance in historical linguistics and specialized dictionaries that catalog rare or archaic characters.
