This Igorot headdress was given as a pasalubong by my friend, Kuya Binsoy Jomoc when he went to #Baguio.

I was not able to use this one outside yet, but sometimes I would wear it at home. And because I am doing #MgaKwentongPamana I can finally feature it worn by Jesse.

What I remember reading was that in ancient Visayas, men wore a head covering made of abaca which was called #pudong. And a special red pudong could only be worn by a warrior who had killed an enemy in the battle.

Would you happen to know more about the head covering of the #Igorot?
