How to be Gyaru?

2011-12-19T06:13:00.000-08:00

Choose which gyaru substyle you like the most, or which gyaru magazine you can identify most with. Styles stretch from the cuter,fashionable, childish styles to the sexy, to the mature Onee style. From cleancut princess Hime style to wilder Onii.

Browse the net to find recent pictures on your favoured style. Recommended sources would be

popgyaru.com, ricoche.net and some blog/ site that provide japanese magazine scans like vvshu.com.

Study on what gyaru is. It's important to know what you're getting into and it's best to be really familliar with the looks that come with this particular style, rather than just copying one picture that might not be most fit for your body type or the shape of your face.

Pick up Magazines! This cannot be stressed enough. If you aren't able to pick some up or download them. Some good gyaru niche magazine is Pop Sister, Pop Teen, Ranzuki, Egg, Ageha and Blenda. Go to universal-doll.com for the latest scoop on the current fashions.

Go shopping! Purchase the acquired items for this style, in most cases, shorts, OTK's and heels are a great start. Even more important is the makeup, no 1 item that needs to be in your make bag would be the black eyeliner.

Get into makeup. Some people say this is the most important thing about being gyaru. Don't be afraid of using too much liner or eyeshadow, you're most likely to use too little. There are numerous makeup tutorials available online, in magazines and there's many you'll find on youtube, which is a great start before you can style it to your own face.

Study on hair-dos In most styles, gyaru hair is glamorous, big and puffy, often curled, it takes a bit more work than most people's everyday hairstyle. It's a good thing to show off that you put a lot of effort in your hair. Sometimes it might look wild but in many cases each strand was carefully arranged that way.

Get wild and be sexy! Gyaru enjoy having a lot of fun, hang out with your friends and party, don't be afraid of taking your look out to the streets! And even more important BE CONFIDENT. Gyaru style is gonna be sour if you're not pleased with how your body looks, or are scared to stand out a little. You're most probably a healthy young woman and you've got nothing to worry about, you'll regret all your insecurity when the first wrinkles start to show.

What Type Of Gyaru Are You?

2011-12-19T06:01:00.000-08:00

There many different kinds of Gyaru out there. My favorites are the kawaii(cute) ones like Hime, and others. Tho, I am actually a B-Gyaru. Anways I'm here to tell you all about different kinds of Gyaru so you know what type of Gyaru you really are. :)

Yamanba:

They had extremely dark tans, wore very wide, white panda circles around their makeup, and at time even drew designs or whiskers on their cheeks. They stuck small stickers all over their cheeks around their eyes, and even used white paint pens to get the extreme white they desired. Their hair could be any color of the rainbow, and was teased to stand anywhere from 10 to 15 cm off their heads. Extensions almost always were worn, sometimes in different colors. Their clothes were bright and outlandish.

Manba-

The style now has much thicker white makeup, brighter and more varied coloured eyeshadow, light to extreme panda makeup, coloured eyelashes and diamantes around the eyes. Clothing ranges from neon clubwear to sweat suits, but no longer includes the hawaiian accessories or huge amounts of stickers under the eyes. Hair tends to be bright, flourescent colours or blonde and is cut in a mullet style or braided.

Lolita-often called "Lolita Gal" but is rather Ro, as in romantic, and Manba who wear lots of pink and lots of lace. Romanba wear lots of Marie-chan and lots of pearls and flowers. Though similar to the idea of the Lolita Style. It is far from it. Typical brands are Pinky Girls and Liz Lisa. The skin tone is always very dark and the make-up is the same as Yamanba.

Kogyaru-The first style and the oldest is Kogyaru fashion. The best thing to look cute in Japan, it is of course the school uniform! It is essential to any Kogyaru!Indeed, they must be cute but also sexy, so it is not unusual to see high school students wearing skirts abnormally short or with a shirt knotted on the chest .

The loose-socks are the indispensable accessory , these socks are very long and wide, they are wore loosely by making pleats on the ankles and calves, falling on shoes. The length depends on the number of pleats desired, between 30cm and 150cm. Planned originally in the simple purpose of keeping warm during winter, even among other students, it is a fashion accessory absolutely essential and is part of their school uniform If there is something absolutely essential in Kogyaru fashion, it is the hairstyle!They can spend hours taking care of their hairstyle! The main feature of Kogal hair is the color! From brown to blond, it is necessary to go through bleaching ! The goal is always to be different from common girls, typical Japanese. Secondly, to accentuate further the difference in style, it is necessary to give their hair some body, using all means like: brushing, hair extensions or curling iron, everything is good! The volume of hair having the advantage of changing the face.

B-Gyaru-aren't trying to look like Black women, they are copying R&B artists who are predominately African American. The style is distinguishable only by a very dark tan(whereas Yamanba/Ganguro/Gonguro are mostly tan make-up or bronzer, the B-Gyaru tan is 100% permanent with upkeep of course) The hairstyles are mostly micro-braids, cornrows, and almost always extensions.

OneeGyaru-

A classier style, very similar to regular gyaru-kei in fashion, but including only sexy or very stylish clothes, so for example you would wear a camisole instead of a tshirt, and heels are really the only footwear. There is a HUGE emphasis on designers brands, this is really the main point of Oneegal. Brands are very, very important as well as social status, which go hand in hand really. Don't do this unless you have plenty of money!

HimeGyaru- Himegyaru, meaning Princess Gals, wear the most expensive clothing, feature the most luxurious accessories and hairstyles, and are at all times immaculate. Hair is teased up on top and curled tightly in spirals on the bottom. Hair color is always caramel, black, or dark brown. Super-girly high heels, and completely feminine clothing are the uniform. Pearl and cameo inlays and beadwork on nails is also a big trend.

himekaji-

More like Onegal, includes things like silk camisoles, mini skirts and shorts, blouses, etc. People in casual hime often have their hair down and curled. Really the only time it's acceptable for himegal to have straight hair is if your hair is short or it's partially up.

Rasuta-

Rasta style is big in Japan so of course it is big in GAL style also, characterized by Jamaican flags, red-green-yellow, Bob Marley, and lots of straw handbags or hemp clothing. Not to be confused with B-Gyaru but can be sort of a spin-off also.

OGyaru-

O-Gyaru are all simply dirty Gyaru ! It is a fashion in which the principle is to not wash ... Makeup, hair colors, self-tanning cream are very expensive, and the young gyaru are poor, so they had to find a way to allow themselves to not spend too much money while having a very strong visual identity.

A Ogyaru often remains in pajamas, even outside and she doesn't use any make-up remover because it's expensive and keeping the makeup of the day before save a lot of time in the morning.

Ganguro-a deep tan is combined with hair dyed in shades of orange to blonde, or a silver gray known as "high bleached". Black ink is used as eyeliner and white concealer is used as lipstick and eyeshadow. False eyelashes, plastic facial gems, and pearl powder are often added to this. Platform shoes and brightly-colored outfits complete the ganguro look.

Fashion magazines like Egg and Cawaii magazine have had a direct influence on the ganguro. The ganguro culture has evolved its own synchronized dances, called Para Para. Participants do predetermined moves at the same time, usually as accompaniment to J-pop music. Para Para events are held by ganguro circles, and involve either going to clubs to perform Para Para or gathering to learn new dances.

GyaruKei-

General style, which doesn't require a tan, although most gals have one. Fashions can be worn by both Ganguro (tanned Gals) or Ganjiro (untanned Gals). Gyaru kei is the most popular gyaru style today. Some popular gyaru kei icon is Tsubasa Masuwaka, Kumicky, Kanako Kawabata, etc.
Gyaru kei has many sub-categories, here are some of the most common ones:

Amekaji-American Casual: "American casual" style. Gals wear what is commonly scene in America, but with a little more effort. A very popular brand is Cocolulu. Mickey Mouse is very popular.

Saike Gyaru-Psyche Gal: Club wear and tie dye, tribal prints etc.
A rather rock-inspired style, with the brand "moussy" in the lead. It has a few similarities to Saike, but without the tie-dyed and the too colourful hair - it's still rather wild though. The clothing has more ripped jeans and kind of edgy tops, rock-style belts etc.

Roma Gyaru-Romantic Gal: Gal that wears frilly, cute clothes etc.

Bohemian: Bohemian print dresses, fake fur waistcoat, etc.

Miritari-Military:'One Point' eg 1 item of camo or military style.

Rokku-Rock: Rock and biker style. Rock style tee, stripes, plaid, skull prints, denim etc. Lots of dark color and hard elements like spikes and leather jackets, yet still feminine. Faux-hawks, plaid, and Vivienne Westwood are very popular.

Rizouto-Resort: General, gypsy skirts, shorts, tees etc. summer clothes.

Marin-Marine: Blue/Red/White stripes, anchors etc, marine stuff!

Haady Gal: is purely a creation of Egg and so it barely deserves notation here, but since people talk about it so much: Includes brands such as JSG and Galaxxy, tied in with rock/punk style Gal fashion. Very bright, often multi-coloured clothes and crazy patterns.

GyaruO-Girls aren't the only ones following Gyaru Fashion, indeed there is Gyaru-Otoko Fashion, nicknamed Gyaru-O Fashion. So it's in fact the male version of ganguros. Like them, they shock, they attract stares, they move together as a group, they hang about Shibuya and they follow fashion magazines like Men's EGG. But unlike Ganguros who do it to distinguish, make friends or who simply go under the crisis of adolescence, they have a specific purpose: to appeal gyarus. Because it is inconceivable for a gyaru to date a common Japanese, these are the rules of their fashion. Gyaru-Otoko therefore not hesitate to spend astronomical sums of money to buy clothes ot to skip school in order to go out with them.

They also practice a Japanese method of trying and pick girls up, called Nanpa, widely used by Japanese youth, and particularly by gyaru-o. Here is the concept, a gyaru-o stays in a very public place of their city and waits. As soon as he sees a ganguro that he likes, he will talk with her, and when they are at ease, he takes her in a cafe or in a karaoke. Then followed a few hours of fun. . . and then, they go to a love hotel without any second rendezvous.
