HIIT

In Maya culture, hair is held to be a very important element of ethnic identity and culture. It is tied directly to beauty, to power, and even to the rank or the circumstances of an individual. As in other cultures, cutting one's hair was a mark of dishonor.

To dress their hair, men braided it and wound it around the head like a crown, letting the excess fall at the back. Women divided their long hair into two parts to braid it, adding an ornament as a distinguishing feature.
