Hello everyone, this is Tanaka from Hair and Make Zen.
Today I'd like to talk about styling Japanese hairstyles for the autumn kimono season.
Not only orthodox Japanese decorations, but also western hair accessories can be used
like this to create a fresh new look.
I've created an easy method for those who may be a little bit hesitant about Japanese
wagami hair.
Please refer to this video for more information and let's get on to styling.
If you have strong hair parting when viewed from the front, you want to start by removing
this parting.
First, wet the roots of the parted area with a spray and apply heat from the hairdryer
to the roots, while firmly brushing the roots to create a flow of hair towards the back.
Once the bangs are combed back like this, take the triangular base and curl it with
a hot curler.
Next, curl the side part with hot curlers.
For the second part of the hair slice, cut the hair behind the ear, parallel to the face
line, and diagonally towards the slice.
Pull it out and curl it so that the hot curler curls parallel to this slice.
The other side of the hair should be blocked in the same way.
Curl the hair so that it is symmetrical when viewed from the front.
The top of the head is about 2 or 3 fingers apart from the highest point of the blocking
line between the side and slice you just took.
Separate the top and the bottom of the head into sections leaving a little space from
the top of the head to the concave area in the back of the head.
Then tie it with a hair tie at the golden point.
This is what it should look like from the back.
Now let's add some hair to the bottom part.
When backcombing the hair, divide the hair into 3 blocks from around 3 collar lengths
to the right side, to the left side, and in the center.
First, start off with the right side and backcomb the hair.
Divide the slice evenly into two parts and start with the high point to backcomb the
hair.
Once backcombed, keep the slice out of the way with a hair clip and backcomb the bottom
slice as well.
Next, do the same thing for the left side using the two slices to create a backcombed
hairstyle.
Once you have finished backcombing the hair, pull it down and place a half moon pluck at
the base.
Check the position of the hair tie and make the hair symmetrical.
Place the tsuki kumi so the highest point of the hair is around the base of the hair
tie.
Secure the hair with pins so that the outline of the hair is set in place.
Gather these hair strands together and bring them up to the hair tie at the top and tie
it together at the same position.
Our goal is the golden point at the hair tie, but first you can see I'm holding it quite
far back from the scalp.
You can make the surface more beautiful by raising it like this.
When you look at it from the side, the hairline overlaps with the base of the hair tie at
the very end of the combed part.
Tie the hair tie when you've lifted it up to this point.
Wrap your fingers around the base of the hair tie and tie it with the bundle you've just
lifted.
Here's how the back looks so far.
Now let's finish the front part with the hot curlers.
Since the bangs are quite thick, we'll divide it into two slices and backcomb the hair.
Once the first slice is backcombed, pull the second slice and the slice at the back to
the same position as the previous slice and backcomb it.
This helps the two slices come together in the same place.
So when you cover it in the back, it looks much more luscious and neat.
This time, I'll secure the bangs in place with an American pin with one finger down
in the place I just held.
Secure your bangs with American pins one finger down from your face line.
The pins should be parallel with the face line.
This makes it easier to work with.
When viewed from the front, the height and volume of the hair will vary based upon the
volume of the backcombed hair.
Tie the middle part with a string hair tie.
If you pull the knot forward a little, you can make the bangs look more lively.
And if you pull them back, it looks more gentle and relaxed.
Pin it in place while looking at the sides and the front to make sure that the hair is
balanced.
Let's also finish hot curling the side.
As with the center section, we'll divide it into two slices and add the shadows.
The angle of the slice should be parallel to the face line.
When the backcombed hair is perpendicular to the face line, pull out the second slice
and backcomb the hair.
For this example, fix the egg-shaped hair so that it is parallel to the outline of the
face.
Then apply the curler.
Turn over the backcombed hair and comb it toward the hair tie.
After blending the hair strands, add a twist while being careful not to loosen the bundle.
Fix the hair with American pins here.
Check the silhouette from the front and pin it in place.
Now do the same for the opposite side as well.
This is how it looks when it is pinned in place.
Check the silhouette from the front and try to make it as symmetrical as possible.
The last part to be finished is the root of the ponytail.
I'm going to deal with the part that was left when I applied the hot curler.
Wrap these three bundles around the elastic part of the root and secure it with pins,
making sure not to break the shape you've created.
After completing the hair tips, curl the root section to finish it off.
Divide the ponytail into two sections, front and back.
This time, we'll curl the hair that we parted first.
Curl in a line parallel to the floor, as if you were curling with a hot curler.
Then move around to the front and comb out the hair bundle you just curled.
Lightly brush back the hair at the roots.
Use these cylindrical hairs and roll them into the roots.
After curling the hair to the roots, secure the hair to the base with pins.
From here, spread the edges so that they form a radial shape.
Spray from the center of the back of the hair tie up to the front of the hair tie
to give it a more polished and clean surface.
From here, make sure that there are no tiny hairs being left on the edge.
Pull them out to a position so that it doesn't leave a gap when viewed from the front.
Now, let's finish this bundle at the back in the same way.
And now, we're done with the hairstyle.
This time, I used a combination of Western hair ornaments instead of Japanese ones.
So, how was it?
The essential part of this style is the symmetry.
When curling or tying the hair tie, make sure to check the center of the hair in the mirror so that it ends up symmetrical.
If you have any questions, leave them in the comments.
I've been Tanaka from Hair and Make Zen, and I hope to see everyone in my next video.
