The Chinese Tang Dynasty was a period of great cultural and artistic achievement, with its imperial court being the center of power and influence.
The imperial queens were highly respected and admired for their beauty, intelligence, and grace.
Their hair accessories were an important part of their attire, reflecting their status and style.
One of the most popular hair accessories during this time was the hair stick or "qian zi" in Chinese.
These were long, thin pieces of wood or bamboo that were used to hold the hair back from the face.
They were often decorated with intricate patterns and designs, such as flowers, birds, and dragons.
Another popular hair accessory was the hairpin or "qian pi" in Chinese.
These were small, metal or wooden pins that were inserted into the hair to hold it in place.
They could be plain or adorned with precious stones or other embellishments.
Hair clips and hair ornaments were also common during this time.
Hair clips were small pieces of metal or plastic that could be attached to the hair using bobby pins or other methods.
Hair ornaments were usually made of gold or silver and could be worn on the head or around the neck.
In addition to these practical items, there were also many decorative hair accessories that served as fashion statements.
For example, some women would wear a crown of flowers or a necklace of pearls around their necks.
Others would wear a headband or a turban made of silk or velvet.
Overall, the Chinese Tang Dynasty was a time of great beauty and elegance, reflected in the intricate and ornate hair accessories that were worn by its royal ladies.
