This is the universal dress, except in a few cases where Malay "sarongs" have come into use.

Their frizzly hair is tied in a bench at the back of the head.

They delight in combing, or rather forking it, using for that purpose a large wooden fork with four diverging prongs, which answers the purpose of separating and arranging the long tangled, frizzly mass of cranial vegetation much better than any comb could do.

The only ornaments of the women are earrings and necklaces, which they arrange in various tasteful ways.

The ends of a necklace are often attached to the earrings, and then looped on to the hair-knot behind.
