Monograph.

The author obtained a lot of information and photos in the long-term fieldwork. Through these first-hand materials, he expounded and displayed the colorful and colorful clothing culture of Guangxi minority nationalities, and profoundly interpreted their cultural connotations.

For example, many friends who have been to Guangxi and Longsheng can not forget the long black hair of Longsheng red Yao women.

As an important part of clothing, hairstyle is also a symbol of significance in Guangxi minority costumes.

Longsheng Guilin and Pingxiang Huang Luo village are known as "the first village in the world." the local women believe that hair is the essence of human life, especially the hair of women. It is also the symbol of life. Therefore, women have long hair. The average hair of women is more than 1 meters long, and the longest is 1.9 meters, creating the Guinness world record of "the longest hair of group".

Girls in the village began to accumulate hair when they were 13 years old. They only cut their hair once at 16 years old to symbolize their adulthood.

The girl in the boudoir never easily lets others see their own hair. They put their hair on top of their heads, like a snail, and then wrap it up with a scarf.

Local customs hold that only the groom is eligible to see the bride's hair first; after marriage, they comb their hair on the forehead, wrapped in a scarf, and put their hair on top of their heads after being a mother.

Such a profound cultural interpretation is not known without fieldwork that has been going on all the year round.

These require people to fully understand history, which is also the important significance of our reading of the book.
