Come chill, hang out, and listen to 3 friends talk all about GYARU! My friends Chris (@_lamiann) & Shiena (@ningyosama) both combined have more than 20 years (!!) of experience with gyaru and are both extremely passionate about it. We talk about how gyaru has evolved over time from the 90s to today in 2021, how the gaijin gyaru community is different from the Japanese gyaru community, whether gyaru is an aesthetic, and so much more. Recently, I and many others have noticed a ton of misinformation being spread about various J-Fashion (also known as Japanese Fashion) styles so I came up with the idea on Twitter one day to start a video series where I sit down and talk to people who have been part of these communities either for more than a decade or who are extremely active in their communities. Through this series, I am hoping to share the knowledge that these J-Fashion veterans have with others about the rich history & culture of this global J-Fashion community as well those wanting to try out these fashions for themselves. Spending time with all these wonderful people has been such a delight and I have learned so much as well! We go over the history, the evolution, advice for newbies, misconceptions, and a ton of other stuff about these various styles. I really hope that this is helpful, informative, and that you have a good time learning with all of us! o((*^▽^*))o

Responding to the misconceptions question in the description; I hate the slut shaming and assumptions that gyaru are promiscuous.
frrr
That's why I'm now creating a Gyaru character that is asexual 💋
@@User_P1nkI LOVE that!!
I found so interesting the part about the stereotype of gyarus being mean or bitchy when they actually are just forward and honest. I used to be into lolita a few years ago and I remember conventions having such a toxic enviroment. So many people were being so polite and sweet on the surface and then being super judgy and shit talking everyone behind their backs if they didn't like their outfits so, yeah, definitively the gyaru way is so much healthier and positive. If you have an oppinion on someone, just say it to their faces, but don't prettend you like them just to shit talk when they're not around.
usually people say others are mean and rude when really they aren't. this happens all the time, ex. my mom said I had an attitude for talking quietly with no prior reason to think such. It's just how some people think unfortunately-
I wish life was more like this! I'm not rude, but I won't pretend to like someone if I don't. I also am honest, though not brutally. I don't like playing games like huh does this person like me or are they just faking?
I was gyaru before you guys were born I think... So just to complement with a bit of prehistory, the name gyaru started because of a brand of jeans called Gal that would sell well to college and office girls that went to Julianna's, a Tokyo club from waaaay back in the bubble economy when people partied a lot and companies would pay your partying because they had too much money, think dancing parapara and eurobeat, in the 80s and early 90s drinking whisky on company credit cards. Back then you were underage until 20 and you graduated HS at 18, by 25 you were expected to be married, a housewife and out of the office so you had at most 7 years of freedom.
The youngest girls that would sneak into these clubs, underage and still in school, would be called kogal (kogyaru) and it would be sort of like calling someone jailbait, as in they are still kokosei so stay away from them because they are too young, they are still kogyaru. This is also when the whole loose socks movement started and it led to schools getting stricter with their use and uniform rules. Girls started to rebel more and more. Some would have a second pair of socks, loose leg warmers to get the look or a second shorter skirt they would wear outside school. As kogyaru graduated school they would just be called gyaru, the name of them as a whole.
At that point in 1992 the Japanese economy crashed, the club closed in 93 and the partying stopped. With no office job prospects, gyaru became this group in their late teens or early 20s with no office job prospects that in a destroyed economy, with nowhere to go have fun, would take to hanging out and working in and around an almost dead mall from the 70s at the other side of the Yamanote loop called Shibuya109 (yamanote is a train loop around a central part of Tokyo and at that time it was already established as a place for fashion snaps). The area and mall became revitalized with shops aiming to that younger taste and each year aiming for younger fashion. Kogal would change into a second miniskirt uniform when they left school, put on makeup on the train home or the train to Shibuya shocking everyone. Some would say that gyaru didn't shower, others that they were a threat to the nation's youth, a threat on good morals but the truth was everyone was depressed and broke except these girls that were giving no damns about it, they kept partying and not conforming standards. Japan starts to have an obssesion with school girl stuff while simulstaneously hating on them because of their rebellion. Tanning, brown dyed hair and miniskirts became symbols that were slowly getting heavier to try to go against the grain and the yamato nadeshiko standard.
By the mid 90s gyaru were everywhere and as the decade went by, most were not settling down, not getting married early and keeping their hobbies and lifestyle. You have publications like Egg, Cawaii!, Popteen all publishing gyaru eyemakeup tutorials with some street snaps also showing up on Fruits!. Print club or purikura was also taking it's current form and had morphed into stickers and being able to put decorations and other basic editing. Namie Amuro had already debuted and her fans the Amuras were unmistakenly gyaru, BoA debuted in Japan, other artists that tanned and had brown chapatsu hair were in as well, even Ayumi Hamasaki was tanned back then.
Many kogyaru had graduated school and now had to just be called gyaru with a lighter tanned look replacing their former fashion. Alba Rosa, nail art, liz lisa, platform shoes, gyaru circles, everything was already in place. This is around when j-phones were invented and text messaging was expensive which led to a whole bunch of gyarugo invented as shorthand and horizontal emojis, even the (OwO) face. Text messaging worked very different back then in Japan, they were actually e-mails, these phones had color screens and an early form of internet or some even had cameras. Meanwhile in other countries Nokia Snake was the new kid on the block lagging behind on dotted green screens. A bit of information could be accessed via forums like magazine scans.
At this point I managed to get my hands on some of these scans on my crappy dialup internet and managed to finally learn how to put on eyeliner on my tiny eyes to make them look twice their size. Every component of gyaru fashion is already there when some of the ganguro girls go full yamanba and as a reaction Ganjiro or shirogyaru look is invented in the early 2000s or maybe late 1999. I actually don't know the exact date but by Rainbow from 2002 I remember Ayumi Hamasaki had lost most of the tan.
Even though gyaru was counterculture, yamanba and later manba was seen as bit too much. The only thing that I think stayed on from the yamanba and manba eras was that they would use a lot of fake eyelashes and more exagerated nail art. Online from outside Japan you could only get very limited information on youth j-fashion but the news about rebellious kogyaru did reach the international media. I think this is why most people think that kogal and manba were actually first.
From the very start I think it's impossible to avoid having a reputation of troublemakers. Of course, the whole issue of many were rejecting normal life, how they were making a living, dressing and some engaging in risky lines of work while still being so young led to them being both sexualized and easy targets. There were even some scandals with runaway girls living homeless in the area of Shibuya in the early and mid 90s or some girls that would date older men to get gifts like Burberry scarves, LV bags and cellphones which back then were a luxury. These things DID happen but of course media would make it into a generalization and make it look like it was everyone. I think this reputation from back then still haunts gyaru in a way and it got later mixed with kyabakura culture making it even worse. The fact is being a single woman or a teen who aims to stay free in a society that viewed marying before 25 as an objective, because you were otherwise old chrismas cake, who was single but who still had relationships, hobbies and friends, would make you a target for being sexualized. So I think that it was innevitable from the start. The rest I think is covered super well in the video but I just wanted to talk about even older stuff.
ANY INFO ON THE GAL JEANS BRAND?? pictures links anything??
Whoa thanks a lot for this!! This was the first time I heard about the origins!
@@pastelrat they were actually made by Wrangler jeans as far as I have been able to find out
This is the insight that I needed😩🙏🏽thank you
Just wow... Reading this was really interesting, thank you so much!
I'm young, and live in a poor/unsupportive country, so I'm worried to wear gyaru clothes, and do gyaru makeup cause I'm worried about being bullied yk? I used to know about gyaru and tried it, didn't work out at first, so I stopped, after a while I got back into it and absolutely fell in love with the style, I'm hoping to find more gyaru content, and try to work with what I have :) ❤
Edit: it's been a year, and I rarely do gyaru anymore, i still do the hair and makeup sometimes, but I fell in love with another style. I recommend everyone who still loves this style to take it slow! Don't try to get the style now, take your time to build your wardrobe and makeup. Love you ❤
I try to mix my gyaru aesthetic with my work uniform, like bright makeup and a cute choker, I'm so happy this culture is still alive
what country [ no hate ] just acting
Unfortunately (in Japan at least) Kogal run the risk of being bullied, slut shamed,or over-sexualized. But that’s because Japan doesn’t promote individuality and a lot of Japanese men think of Gal as “trashy” “promiscuous” “gross” and “ugly”. Kogal/Nachatte (if you’re out of school but wish to wear a uniform EVERY DAY) is I’d the say the tamest style of Gyaru. Very very light makeup, loose socks, accessorized uniforms. Look into Gyaru. Gyaru isn’t just droopy eye makeup and provocative clothing. There is over 100 sub-styles. Some bohemian, some over-the-top. But def do research beforehand
@@NYCTOSEE ty! ❤❤

As a kid I remember being obsessed with the Gals. They were like the scene queens I knew but mixed with DDR electronic vibes and extravagant makeup 💝💖🌺🍉🌴🌊✨
I am a Gal from Europe I live in Tokyo since long time and I saw quite a few fellow gyaru here during these years :3 obviously not as many as early '00 but still, definitely NOT dead! Also I am proudly married and not promiscous as a lot of people seem to think... thank you for sharing always useful and informative videos about Harajuku community from overseas I've been following this channel since quite some time and I must say I am loving this series sososo much I have always been judged negatively and suffered from severe depression in the past but I feel a lot better now 💜💜💜
42:49 I love that part when they talk about how direct and upfront the gyaru community tend to be, that's honestly one of the main charms of gyaru to me!! I'm a super shy and timid girl, so i really really admire how bold and confident gyarus are, they are honestly so cool to me 🥺💖 Thank you so much for such an interesting and enjoyable video!!
I’m a drag queen , and I personally love the gyaru style for me it looks so nostalgic to me it’s , reminds me of snooki , y2k styles , American Californian bombshells , kinda Paris Hilton , kinda trisha paytas in the 2000s . I like their outfits and style I hope it doesn’t die out in Japan .
as a gyaru, i think this is one of the best things someone has said abt it 😭
…did…did you actually just toss out a trisha paytas reference …for fashion lol? Lord have mercy. What is happening. Trisha did a completely disgusting xenophobic, racist, vile depiction of Japanese culture and fashion in her ridiculous video where she’s dressed up like a fake gyaru/ganguro just to get views ..that’s what she does. Do troll videos on whatever marginalized group is being discussed at the moment just to get some views..it’s vile (she’s made videos trolling and claiming she’s black because…she has oily eyelids (this is a direct quote not an exaggeration)…lying about being transgendered….saying she was now gay because she hates men so likeeee she’s totally choosing to be a lesbian…lied and faked DID just because it was trending on twitter….made videos about the death of celebrities and trolled about..their…DEATH…just to get views and traffic to her page because Robin Williams was trending when he passed/Cobain’s anniversary of his death was trending…etc etc ) If you’re referring to her…styl….sorry..I just can’t get that out. If you’re referring to how she dressed …what. She does head to toe copies of other peoples’ styles and calls it cosplaying? I’m sorry for this essay I just think before someone tosses out references like this they should educate themselves on the reference itself. Sometimes these mistakes can occur and I don’t hold it against you obviously and i hope this doesn’t come across as rude..but I had to shed light on this in case you were unaware. I’m hoping at this point you were unaware lol ✌🏻✌🏻hope this helps
@@gyaruxoxo Bc it's true 💞! The style is Pop Princess / Jersey Shore Dramatic/ Barbie Blonde with huge green or blue contact lenses and I LUVVVVVVV it ! You all look STUNNING to me . Asian girls look spectacular in Northern European Blonde Hair and with the light skin and light contact lenses you all look related to me and my family 💗💕💗💞 I hope this look never disappears bc you look amazing ⭐💫
i’m seeing this right before my gyaru themed birthday beach party!
the whole time i couldnt get over how good everyones makeup is ahhh
Not gonna lie, I start to sympathize more and more with Gyaru and kinda hate the misconception the other fashion communities have about them;
Being direct isn't bitchy nor rude but in japanese culture it's considered really rude which i find really sad not gonna lie.
This just enables an culture that looks out for image more than honesty and makes you an easier target to be sniggered about behind someones back.
Tbh I rather want to be confronted if my skirt is a bit messy or the back of my hair looks off instead of it being ignored and made fun of behind my back.
Tho there is a fine line between being direct and overly obnoxious about it:
My mom really cares alot about image and looking and would point out the most ridiculous things to me while I would tell her a story etc. pointing out that the 1 millimeter dirt underneath my one nail is embarrassing or how the lint that came off from my shawl onto my black jacket makes it look do ugly and i shouldn't have bought that jacket in the first place because it's black and makes lint more prominent for the eye to see. That's bitch and rude if you constantly point that out and can't shut up especially if I tell you smth and you kinda prove to me with that kind of behavior that u didn't listen to me in the first place.
But just helpfully pointing something out for someone who actually cares about it or put alot of effort into their outfit shouldn't be considered as rude in my opinion.Tho imo It's not what you say, but how you say it.
I love gyaru but I got into it when the gaijin community wasn't so kind to newcomers. I'm a mom now so I only have enough energy to dress up in gal on special occasions or if I get time to myself. It's definitely become more refined as a style for sure.
Same here. I kind of had a negative experience with someone in the community. And I have a few gyaru pieces/assessories but I don't wear them everyday.
@@WaLoliiiu I’m sorry about your negative experience ): I have a server full of new to semi-vet gals and gyaruos who r all welcoming if you’d like to join!
I loved Ran Kotobuki from Super Gals in highschool. But it took me 15 more years before I'd learn what a "gal" even was!
After watching this video and looking around my apartment, I realized that I've have been striving toward the gyaru style for years without even knowing it. Animal prints, tropical themes, bright colors mixed with bold patterns...I was just calling it "80s" because I associate those things with 80s fashion and mall culture. It seems there's a lot of cross over! I can't wait to learn more. 🥰
i’m here very late but everyone in this video is stunning
i wanna dress up like that when im older bc im literally obsessed with gyaru but idk hwo to do makeup or even like have th emoney 4 it
money worries shuoldnt hold u back pickig a style!!!!!!! if u keep an eye out fr thigns that fit th look and slowly accumulate stuff as much as u cn ull be able 2 dress however ud want in due time...n learnig makeups not too hard!!!!!!! just takes a lotta practice!!!!!!!!! dnt be discouraged:]
@@wikiprion thats true
Thrift shops are full of stuff from the early 00's! Take notes about the style you want about stuff like silhouette, cuts, colors, and accessories since they're cheap. It's easier if you do this than looking for very specific pieces
I really do hope it gets popular especially all the sub styles cause the main style ive been seeing is kogal
I was a gyaru back in the 2010s and I get the whole community thing. I loved in Arizona and then moved to Las Vegas and back then I had a hard time finding people who would be into gyaru but found no one and eventually just adopted a gyaruish makeup for daily use but not really did any other stuff lol
I used to LOVE gyaru when i was 14-16 ( i am 29 now :( ) i was so so so so bad at makeup and when i look back at the pics i cringe so hard but gyaru will always have a big place in my heart !
OooOOOooooooOoOOOooooo Can't wait to hear the tea from you beautiful Gals! I loved your Fairy Kei Vid! Such chill and calm vibes to have going in the background while I'm crafting! Definitely put me in a cheery mood!!
Im so excited for the next segment too. Omg. This one was already done so well! Thank you!
I also think Baywatch being the most popular show in the world for awhile, with Pamela and the other tanned, "bleach blonde" type actresses they cycled through during that time, feels like it might have contributed too.
Absolutely 💯 CORRECT! I agree . These women look like Baywatch light tanned Barbies with a touch of Jersey Shore makeup and hello kitty inspired clothes . Luvvvvvvv 💕
I’m loving this series so much! 💓
I love that interview so much 💖
AHHHHH I AM GLAD I FOUND THIS!!!! I CANT WAIT UNTIL IT PREMIERES
Looove this video, thank youuu!!!
I’m a gal at heart! Very happy you’re making this video💖💖💖 hime gals with feathers in their hair is so dreamy and angelic🥰
My introduction to gyaru was also Super Gals! Such a fun anime, i loved the nail art the most🌺
I’m so excited for this video cuz I do drag looks inspired by gyaru. Gyaru is so not dead, I’m an active participant 💕💓
I first dress in Gyaru fashion a year ago, so it’s great seeing that it’s still becoming known especially with social media 🥰🥰 so thank you for this video !!
wait i love this so much 😭 y’all are so fun and stylish 🥺💖🧡💛💚💙💜
Wait I think I follow you on tik tok! Lol
@@kalpic11 omg heyyyy🤩😊💓
i’ve loved gyaru since i was in 5th grade and this is the first time i’ve like seriously looked into it. thank you so much for this video im so ready to be a gal!! ^^
I’m going 2 try out my first gyaru look today and I’m so excited! My eyes like flow with the way you do the make up so I think it will fit my face well
So excited for this! 💖💖💖
TYSM FOR RESPARKING MY LOVE FOR DECORA AND JFASHION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so happy I have resparked my love for jafashion
I Love this video interview
very fun and informative!!!!
I lived in Japan for a year, I literally just landed on September 2014 and I remember the change in those magazines! I actually still have a couple of them 😊😊
Super interesting and the pictures is a nice touch too
OMG, shiena speaks! i've been following her on FB and Insta for quite a while now, and never heard her voice before!
when pinterest was first making the rounds I delved into decoden from that I found Gyaru fashion. I adored it. And loved Hime Hime Star's channel to.
Wanna try gyaru but it's kinda hard to be orange when you're already brown lol. Thumbnail is so pretty though
if i'm not mistaken, it's not necessary to tan to be gyaru. you should definitely go for it if you'd like!
Everyone can be gyaru, you should go for it, i bet you'd look amazing ^^
Black gyaru exist! I’ve seen some amazing darker skin gals. I can’t think of specific names off the top of my head but I really recommend checking out the gyaru community on tiktok. If you like the style, I hope you can try it out someday! 💖
paigiechu, boy_kuma, bebeajadore, dd.kyoko, thehungrybug, kuroyaya, lovevaani, elysiumasami, kenbaii
just to name a few gals i know the usernames from off the top of my head
Awww thanks everyone! This community is literally so wholesome
I can not wait to see this video aeee wow wow 😱🇯🇵
i didn't know you had a UA-cam channel!! 😭❤️
What gyaru eye tutorial did you follow when you did your makeup in your gyaru style transformation video?
For like an year to now I have been getting into rokku gyaru even though that trend has bee out. So for me I like gyaru but more on the rocker/grunge style
Don't give up on your dreams!
Thank you so much for doing this! ❤️ Listening Chris and Shiena was so fun and interesting. I really hope more baby gals and people interested in the style want to join the comm. And today we started with the panels for the 109 Month, but we’re having all kind of activities and challenges. 🥰❤️
I'm a baby gal (started 4 months ago) and this video is so helpful! 💗
Decora butterfly clips give me ✨life✨
Can't wait to pick up more gyaru manga tomorrow
My heart breaks a little every time I hear someone say that e-girl is in any way related to goth :') It's not, but I promised myself I wouldn't type anymore correction essays :'D
This video was really good ! I think you asked all the good questions so tysm for that ^°^ !
Also the discord link has been expired is there another way for me to join ? Ty
I love this subculture so much, as far as feminism goes, I feel like gal's carry that badass Sailor Moon senshi girl power energy that's so feel good and just empowers everyone around them.
Barring the potential classist stuff that comes from brands, I'm impressed at the support that exists and that there are people keeping it alive and helping each other be the best GAL they can be. I'm a guy in his 30s now, but I used to listen to Hamasaki Ayumi, Eurobeat, Namie Amuro and Koda Kumi back in the day. I never realized until recently that with my artistic appreciation for makeup and fashion came from my hidden lil gal heart 😂. I look way too manly to even attempt anything though. But who knows, maybe I can look into gyaruo stuff.
Please do! They are so rare. I barley see them.
Chris looks more like a mix between gyaru and visual kei on her insta, even stepping onto goths' toes, but I like the mix 👌🏻
ohhh i love gyarus and the style💕>.
I’ve been wanting to do gyaru since I was like SO YOUNG like I’d say around like 5-6 especially when UA-cam first really boomed there was so many gyarus from Japan showing themselves off and I (not knowing Japanese obviously) was just so obsessed 😫
I just found your channel and I absolutely adore it, and you. You're so easy to listen to, so cute and kind seeming. ANYWAYS enough fangirling over here, I have a question if anyone can answer...I have always had a secret admiration for Gyaru, I don't have any friends that are into it, or would even understand it.
My question being, If I wanted to finally take my dream into the public and try Gyaru, would it be acceptable or frowned upon to try the style for Halloween, or for Comic Con, or Anime Con. I totally understand that I don't want to say or portray that Gyaru is a form of Cosplay....I guess It would just seem easier to me to try for an event that people dress up I guess? What are your thoughts?
that seems totally fine! its just you trying out so go for it :)
Echo Rice Thanks so much for your response! :)
I love how when you guys are talking about a fun colorful and creative style you act like your in a buisness meating xD
How can gyaru be dead if im one
In all seriousness I love this style so much and I'm happy I decided to try it out!! I love that this video also goes into interviewing senior gyarus I'm only a few min into the video but this is so cool!!
I love gyaru!!
Can you please do a video on Yume kawaii the dream version not the menhera one pleaseeee 🙏🙏🙏🙏😭😭
I will try my best to work on this! I am having some trouble finding people for this but if you have any suggestions for anyone who wears Yume Kawaii (preferably those who have worn it for a couple of years), I would appreciate it ❤
i wanna start being a gal but i also need a whole gal squad :(
the gyaru discord link isnt working 💔
The new Gyaru style is so much better
i love super gals!
I can't find the discord
Gyaru wants to accumulate all the styles lol. Seriously tho gyaru is supper awesome and I love the vid
Does anyone have the discord link? The description links expired! :(
please let me know if you find it!
Is the Discord still active? The link didn't work and I'd really like to join. I'm new to the fashion and would love to talk to others about it.
please let me know if you find it!
Gyaru is so beautiful and Gyaru will ALWAYS keep thriving HEHE
does anyone have the link to the discord server as the link is invalid
please let me know if you find it!
Tbh I’m more into the school gal aesthetic I always wanted to be it but I couldn’t afford it😩😩😩😩
Hey, I tried joining the channel's discord server and it didn't work :c
I'm so sorry about that, just updated it so hopefully the new link works!
hii! sorry to bother but do you still have the discord link to their server??
please let me know if you find it!
wooowww!
18:45 aged amazingly haha
going to be honest some the blogs linked for ''resources'' are just mean spirited ''do it yourself'' long winded posts. at least the ones by sei. even if gyaru was dead, how could we be surprised when no one wants to even help others without having an attitude.
Help! The discord server link doesn't work anymore! :(
please let me know if you find it!
I want to wear gyaru and I first found it about 3ish years ago from the anime Please Tell Me Galko-chan! Galko-chan is a gyaru and she is super pretty and smart! :)
Got into Gyaru watching nonsummerjack 😳
I feel like the spice girls were gyaru without even knowing it lol.
oh man the discord link is invalid now
I'm so sorry about that, just updated it so hopefully the new link works!
@@cybrgrl UR FINE THANK U
I'd love to try out gyaru but I'm not super good at makeup and prefer more minimal looks? would I have to do super intense makeup to fit into something like kogal as well???
just try nanchatte!
There are lots of toned down gyaru make you could try, it also depends on the style of gyaru you're into because every style has its key points including makeup, kogal makeup is not as flashy so you should be okay ^^ but if you're not asian you would have to focus on the shape of the makeup a little bit more so its read as gyaru
If u dont really like the makeup and just wanna wear a uniform then u should probs get into nanchatte
If you want to try looks with a Japanese school uniform, what you're looking for is Nanchatte! Kogyaru is part of the Gyaru style, so bold makeup is a must.
HELPP THE SAME GIRL ON THE THUMBNAIL IS ON MY PFP- anyways i love seeing other gyarus in the wild internet, and if u wanna be gyaru i definetely reccomend watching kawaii pateen makeup tutorials, explore which substyle you wanna be and make other gyaru friends! online friends or irl friends dont matter.. and if ur over 18, you can join a gyarusa! just a reminder to NOT support egg magazines. theyre problematic as fuck
I have enough clothes to be called a gyaru but I'm not of the legal age to drink and go to nightclubs yet😮💨😔 and do how to find people in Sweden who dress like this and I get really nervous when I talk to people so...
Ur so cute omg
Lol Ganguro literally translates to “Cancer girl”
LOVE THIS CYBER TYSM!
i've been in love with this style for over 10 yrs & i feel like im too scared to try it but i wish maybe one day.. 🥲 it's so nice to see it still around tho!
