Prior to cutting them off, elderly Jingpo men would have a pigtail tied on top of their head covered with a black turban. Young people prefer white turbans.

Some of the men wore a kind of leather scullcap with a curtain behind covering the neck - the front of the cap was often decorated with
teeth of wild animals.
