The hair, when not worn loose, is held together with a home-woven ribbon, or a piece of cotton cloth rolled into a band; or with a strip of palm leaf.

Often men and women gather the hair in the back of the head, and men may also make a braid of it.
The women's toilet is just as simple.

A scrimpy woollen skirt is tied around the waist with a girdle, and over the shoulders is worn a short tunic, with which, however, many dispense when at home in the barranca.

The women, too, have blankets, though with them they are not so much the rule as with the men.

Still, mothers with babies always wear blankets, to support the little ones in an upright position on their backs, the blanket being tightly wrapped around mother and child.
