What 𪰌 means
In Japanese, it is read しゃぐま (shaguma). This kokuji (a kanji coined in Japan) writes 赤熊, red-dyed yak-tail hair. A yak is a long-haired bovine; its hair decorated helmets, wigs, and ceremonial hand whisks.
A Japanese medieval glossary records 赤熊 for this hair. A 1680 example uses the word for a hairpiece, and a passage from around 1711 applies it to red hair. A Chinese dictionary equates 𪰌 with 眊, meaning dim-sighted, confused, or old. Let the surrounding language guide the reading.

1Why does 𪰌 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
