I made these nails a while ago and wanted to share them here 💖✨
They're inspired by Babymetalclub prints.
Do any of you make your own gyaru-inspired items too? Nails, clothes, accessories… show me! I'd love to see them

going out yay

i reckon you could land a plane on my forehead. but here are some recent going-out looks.

honestly, the second picture is… not very gal. this is mainly because of my lash shortage (which will be solved soon!!!). perhaps it’s something more sinister and evil. haha

Gaijin Gyaru creators/influencers?

I am trying to fill my feed with as much Gyaru content as possible to get inspo. I follow many jp gals but struggle to find active gaijin gals.

I love styles like agejo, Hime, and tsuyome.

Any recommendations on people I should check out?

Question about ganguro and its origin

I noticed in the online community on social media people have been increasingly stating that gyaru and specifically ganguro and the other substyles it encompasses are specifically inspired by black american culture but is that true from Japan's viewpoint? They also sometimes say this in a weird way to sort of disparage and disregard Japanese gyaru which is weird to me.

The reason I ask is bc from what I know ganguro has a connection to Japanese folklore, particularly kabuki, and yamanba is the name of a yokai. The fashion seen in this substyle also looks more inspired by cultures and imagery of pacific islanders and specifically Hawaiians. The bleach blonde look is inspired by the "California girl" look. The tans are about doing the opposite of Japan's societal expectations. The extreme makeup is about going against the idea of natural beauty standards.

So I am wondering what are others thoughts on this? Where does the inspiration from American black culture come in to this specific substyle? I can def see the inspiration from black culture in substyles like tsuyome and amekaji, but not ganguro.

I just think sometimes Americans have to be less American-centered and more open-minded when engaging and participating with subcultures that originated in other countries that have their own unique social issues unrelated to the USA's history.

EDIT: Btw I am not saying none of gyaru has influence from black culture!!! I know some of the substyles do. I am just saying for ganguro it doesn't make sense when we look at the history of the style and I just really don't understand why people say it. I don't know what gyaru from Japan think about it bc they barely talk about gaijin issues.

Would this belt make me less gyaru?

I bought this belt because I wanted to wear it to an anime event I went to last month. I really like it, but I want to be into the gyaru tsuyome substyle... so I don't know if it suits me that well. What do you think? Can someone help me, please?😭😭

Suffering with hay fever so the only logical answer is to go outside even more and tan 😅

But seriously what are some of your recommendations for good oils that won’t make me just burn immediately? Are tanning beds actually good in your experience?
