In fact if you are to review the account of history of Japanese gyaru you might be actually surprised how many variations there are.
One of the more fascinating gyaru looks, had young girls sun tanning themselves black and then dyeing their hair bright. These were given names such as yamamba or ganguro. However as fashion trends moved these often extreme ways of dressing and wearing make up grew out of fashion with the young crowd. You may even be surprised to see one or two of them bound for trained to Shibuya.
By far the Japanese gyaru look has become in some ways more mainstream and if you ever have the time to go down to Shibuya 109 you will notice that a larger proportion of older women are starting to shop in what really is the mecca for Japanese gyaru fashion.By far the Japanese gyaru look has become in some ways more mainstream and if you ever have the time to go down to Shibuya 109 you will notice that a larger proportion of older women are starting to shop in what really is the mecca for Japanese gyaru fashion.
Nowadays most girls are interested in what is known as himegyaru, which is basically Japanese for Princess girl a fashion style that is characterised by really long flowing golden hair which is often curls to extreme lengths. For these girls make up consists of light foundation to create an illusion of perfect skin. Their hair is usually whipped up into large beehives which form the core of the Princess look.
Without a doubt the Japanese brand Liz Lisa sets the trend when it comes to himegyaru is that brand caters specifically for this Princess look market. The clothing worn is basically best summed up as long dresses which often are covered with first and to emulate the rich style in set with sparkling rhinestones and all manner of roses and flowers. The colour choice of hime gyaru is surprisingly restricted to blondes or light-coloured hairstyles. It is unlikely you'll find Princess gyaru with crazy hair colours such as red.
Very close cousin to hime gyaru is little devil girl, also known as agejou. A style that is well popularised by the magazine called Ageha. Flipping through a copy of Ageha you can see many is numerous examples of the style, directed primarily at women who work in Japan's night industry. Without a doubt,agejou carry themselves if a slightly more sophisticated look and class in order to attract customers at night.
