Baotou (包頭) is the wrapping and styling of the hair and headwear for dan roles (旦角; female characters) in Chinese opera. The steps include putting on a hair net, binding the scalp to lift the brows, adding hairpieces to the sides of the face and the forehead, and adding hair extensions/wigs and head ornaments.
