They have hair on the left side of their head because they don't won't the right side getting caught in the bow string.  And they look red because they put on a oily liquid that makes bugs stay off you.

Their skin is red because they slather a liquid on their bodies so the bugs can't bite them, and their hair is cut on one side so it doesn't get in their face when they are shoot arrows. Their hair is also decorated like we wear jewelry   Also, they wear moccasins because they don't make very much noise when walking, and the animal skin is to keep them warm.

They color there skin red, so bugs will not bite them. They shave there hair on one side so there hair won't get into there hunting gear. And they wear moccasins on there feet so there feet will be protected by the danger outside and so when they hunt outside, as they walk there feet won't make noise. And they use animal fir to keep them warm.

The Warraskoyack  cut the boys hair short on the right and long on the left . They cut it short on the right so there hair doesn't get caught in the bow string. They look red because they put this oil on there skin to keep the bugs away. They wear mocasins so they don't make noise outside when there walking. They wear animal skin to keep them warm.

The Warraskoyack wore moccasins so they wouldn't be loud when they hunted. Their skin was red because they wore a oily mixture made of bear grease and puccoon root to protect them from bugs. They shaved the one side of their head so the bow string wouldnt get caught in their hair.

 They use a plant to keep the bugs away. When they rub it on their skin, plant turns their skin red. They wear moccasinns to help them not to be heard when hunting, and shave one side of there head so the bow won't get stuck in it.
