Japanese Make up -Ganguro-

If you walk down in Tokyo, especially Shibuya and Ikebukuro district. You will find many people, girls and women mostly in the most unusual styles and make ups. the one I want to share with you now is what known as Ganguro. 

The Ganguro trend actually seen as a way rebelling againt 'traditional' Japanese beauty; pale skin, dark hair and neutural make up tone, by putting on layers of colorful make up, bleached hair, tanned skin and bold costumes. 

The trend started around 90s and reached the peak half of decade later. When young women wanted to imitate the look of popular singers at that time, specifically Ayumi Hamasaki. I remember her as my very first favorite japanese female singer, love, love her songs. And the first time ever I bought a Japanese CD Album <3

And did you know that #HeySayJUMP member ever tasted how does it feels to be a ganguro? in a Show Tittled : HeySay Time Jumper Date : 2014-11-29 the trio #中島裕翔 Yuti #有岡大貴 Daichan and #高木雄也 Yuya were sent to meet a group of Ganguro and get a make over. The whole transformation took an hour to finish. with colorful wigs, skin bronzer, enormous amount of make up. See what you think of their new look. Aren't they adorable hehehe.
