Jinshi's most prominent feature his outstandingly beautiful face. Frequently described as having "the looks of a celestial maiden", he has a feminine appearance, with long, silky, jet-black hair and obsidian eyes. In the light novel, he is stylized with dark purple hair and pink eyes. Unlike most other court officials in the series, he wears his hair in a half-back style tied with a cloth. While he wears an angelic smile on his face in public, he removes this persona in privacy and reverts back to the childish expressions he normally wears. He is most often seen wearing court official robes.
