The Huli Wigmen  are best known for their custom of wearing decorative woven wigs. These wigs are elaborate headdresses and decorated with bundles of multi-colored feathers during celebratory festivals.
Food:
The Huli Wigmen survive by both men and women contributing efforts to make food. Men do the hunting, and the women gather plants and grow crops. The men then clear the land to help the women prepare to grow their crops.
Family Culture:
In Huli Wigmen culture, boys are raised in a specific way. Boys will live with their mothers till they are about 8, and then will go to live with their fathers to learn the skills men are expected to know, like hunting and making houses. They will then spend the rest of their education in wig school until they graduate.
