        "description": "In this unidentified role, Iwai Hanshir\u014d IV is costumed as a woman with long flowing hair, wielding a sword. Men of the Edo period shaved their head from the forehead back to the crown, leaving the side and back hair long, though tied in an updo. Even after the practice was abandoned for Kabuki theater actors specializing in female roles, they kept the custom of concealing the area that would once have been bare, so Hanshir\u014d has a <em>murasaki no b\u014dshi</em> (\u7d2b\u306e\u5e3d\u5b50), or purple headband, attached to his wig.",
