You can wear the clothes, but gal is definitely about the make up, hair and nails too.

As long as you're not going round posting pics of yourself and tagging it as gal, I'm sure people won't care.

It was about $220 USD for 20 items; there was also a coat from Cecil Mcbee that's not pictured which I think is pretty good. But the shipping and commission was about $180. The bargains you find on Mbok are amazing but shipping just kills it.

I have a question.

I'm no gyaru, but I love the sorta "milky tea" hair colour they all seem to have.
Where would I go about scoring some?

If I can't get asian brand, what's the closest I could get using normal western box dye?

My hair is brunette, But I'm assuming most of these women have natural black hair yet they somehow manage to transition to this light colour without their hair falling out?

Problem is, I did that and did a dye test on a strand of hair. I picked a colour that looked similar to "milk tea" but it just came out yellowish and unpleasant.

Was thinking maybe you guys had more experience.

[Anonymous No.6771272]

>>6771255
Gah I've been thinking about this all day today!
Despite the hair lightening their hair always looks so healthy anyway? Whereas with my med/dark brown, hair dressers recommend against it. Even self dye packaging say the same.

I'm interested in milk tea (is that the same as mouse brown really?) But more particularly the slightly pink toned variety

Might be worth it to go to a salon to get the initial dye done and see how they do it. (Do they bleach then add color, do they just add one color that'll change it, etc) and then keep that in mind to recreate it at home later.

This has more long term effects.

I agree with the other poster. You can wear the clothes, but without the hair and makeup, it won't quite be gyaru. However, there are many different makeup styles in gal and I'm sure there will be one that will fit your features. I can post suggestions if you like.

Also, I'm a lesbian myself and whenever I'm in a relationship, I leave my nails short and paint them a solid color or give them a really simple design. (No 3D art, that shit is uncomfortable.) Although there are plenty of gals who don't have their nails done. In fact, most lesbian gals don't.

I was talking about some blog articles about gays and lesbians in the Japanese gyaru community. While not exactly prominent, the blogs have all said that the overwhelming majority of lesbian gals have plain, unpainted nails.

I think there are a few in the Western comms and there are some bisexual ones as well. A lot of the community members appear to be of that "LOLOL I LUV MAH GAY MEN BUT EW LESBOS" mindset. Or at least they are a very vocal minority. We're out there, but we just don't talk about it much because of how derp the online comms are. Well, I don't anyway.

I've been using Jergen's natural glow firming lotion as my night moisturizer. The change is subtle, but I like it. Once a week I use a deep self tanner, but I'm in the market for a new one.

I also pick a sunny day to lay out for an hour once a week, but I use sunscreen on my face, neck and chest. I also practically bathe in aloe gel (I have a huge plant of it) once I get in to minimize damage.

I also use Shea Moisture's coconut & hibiscus body scrub before I use my deep tanner. It makes it look more natural. (That same brand/fragrance is also my morning moisturizer.)

Lately, I've been the most into changing my diet/habits to enhance beauty (Eating/drinking beauty foods, working, giving myself massages regularly, etc.) and some DIY methods.

Just want to say that without bleach, you can never achieve Palty's milk tea brown (Oh Tsubasa, all of my jealousy ;_;). What usually happens is in order to obtain an ash tone of hair you have to bleach and tone it...and consistently use purple shampoo and whatnot to keep the orange tones away.

Gyaru is a style that uses western beauty ideals as a feminist movement for taking asian beauty ideals of "cute perfect childish innocent porcelain doll tiny waif with back length straight hair" and turning it on its head by being "white", or at least a caricature of westernized clubbing-type fashions.

Lolita does the opposite, by reclaiming those ridiculous japanese "perfect doll traits" and taking to an unsexualized extreme.

More importantly, why do weeaboos pretend to be Japanese? Why do we imitate their cultural movements of feminine sexuality if they lose so much meaning in the US?

I would argue that these subcultures are just as much an expression of rebellion or whatever against cultural norms for the Western guys and girls who wear them. The "meaning" that they take just differs, rightfully so because our culture is different. Cultural diffusion and whatnot.

I think gyaru in particular is appealing to some people because it can be over the top while still functioning in what most people would consider "the norm" because it's not quite as out-there was other fashion subcultures.

Or I could just be talking out of my ass and they dress that way simply because they like the way it looks.

Some of my childhood idols were Elvira, Peg Bundy and RuPaul. I'm not really surprised I ended up liking gyaru.

Pretty sure it's all about skin whiteness. I'm Chinese and I'm pretty sure most Asian cultures have a huge emphasis on white/pale skin. The fairer a person is, the more desirable a person is. No idea how this relates to gyaru though, since most gals seem to tan.

I heard that in Japan the Japanese tend to idolize Americans? I can't remember whether it was whites or blacks or Americans as a whole, but they'll stop you and try to talk to you if you stand out.
