The practice of maintaining both a beard and mustache was quite common among Ryukyuan men. Men and women also allowed their hair to grow quite long, avoiding cutting it in accordance with [[Confucianism|Confucian]] beliefs; they then wrapped it up into a bun atop their heads, secured with a [[hairpin]].

Men and women also allowed their hair to grow quite long, avoiding cutting it in accordance with [[Confucianism|Confucian]] beliefs. They then wrapped it up into a bun, secured with a [[hairpin]]; while in medieval Ryukyu men typically wore the bun on the back of their heads, in the early modern period it became typical to wear it on the top of the head, sometimes covered by a ''[[hachimachi]]'' or other type of court cap.<ref>Uezato Takashi, ''Dare mo mita koto no nai Ryukyu'', Naha: Borderink (2008), 29.</ref>
