Memory story · made up to help you remember
“Let your hair down! This radical represents the beauty, length, and texture of the hair on our heads. When it sits atop a character, think of personal grooming, the style of one's locks, and the cultural importance of hair as a marker of identity and health. It brings a sense of elegance, personal adornment, and the flowing grace of nature to its characters.”
Where it sits in a kanji
Indicates hair on the head, hairstyles (beards, bangs), beauty and adornment, or the concept of things that are long and "tangled" like hair.
