In early years of the Qing Dynasty, Han women's hairstyle was similar to the Ming Dynasty. They combed flat, low and 
fitted hair bun. Since middle years, they had started to imitate the Qing royal maid and considered high hair bun as fashionable. Till tile end of the Qing Dynasty, round hair bun at the back of the head prevailed. Unmarried women wore long plaits or double horn buns or double whorl buns, Also in this period of time, originally a kind of young girl's hairstyle called "hair bang" - eyebrow- high short hair at forehead, was the rage for women of all ages.
The Han women also liked to decorate their hair with flowers. In wintertime, especially during the traditional Chinese New Year, women of different ages all liked to wear red or pink color silk flowers. These flowers were usually made into a certain pattern with lucky meaning. Women in the north liked to plug one or two silver hairpins in the hair buns and wear hair decorations made by fur in winter, which had the double functions of keeping out the cold and 
decorating the hair. Women from the South liked to stick a delicate patterned wooden comb into hair horizontally. They often wore headscarves to shelter them from sunshine and wind, and head hoops in cold weather - a kind of head ornaments made by black velour or black satin that was wrapped around the head and tied at the back of the head with bands.
The Han women started to bind their feet when they were four or five years old. Except those who were engaged in hard labor work, women with big feet couldn't find someone to marry no matter whether they were from noble or plebeian families. The undesirable custom of foot binding started as early as in the Song Dynasty. Small and pointed feet were considered to be the essential qualifications of a beautiful woman. Till the end of the Qing Dynasty, people with insight founded "No Foot binding Organization" in different provinces one after another. Under this movement 
of women liberation, women's feet were gradually set free.
Maybe because Manchu people used to live a kind of nomadic life, Manchu people in the Qing Dynasty liked to gird many daily articles for use. Men carried glasses case, fan covers, snuffboxes, pipes, flint, moneybags, little walking sabers etc. around waist. Women also liked to carry small daily articles. They didn't always tie them around the belt, but girded strands of articles in the front piece of the garment, such as a toothpick, nipper and ear pick etc. Some women even carried more than ten pieces. Besides, they wore strands of flowers or handkerchiefs. More than that, they also wore all kinds of jewelry, such as earrings, arm bracelets, bracelets, finger rings, neck rings, bead strands made by gold, silver or jade. Even women from poor families liked to wear several pieces of silver ornaments.
