Traditional Bunkin Takashimada Hairstyle Process
In this video we visit Atelier Iro in Kyoto, Japan.
Here they provide Kimono wearing experiences for their guests. Whether they want wedding photos, are doing day-trips to Kyoto and want to wear Kimono around town, or have models for freelance ventures. They provide full make-up and hair styling to produce that traditional Japanese look.
There are many facets to Nihongami that I never knew about. So I felt privileged to learn about this traditional hairstyle from Chika-san.
I hope you enjoy the video and come visit their shop!

    Fantastic video. Thank you. My Father was stationed in Japan on a Medical ship during the Korean war. He brought back many toys like these. I grew up with them as a kid and started collecting them myself as I got older. Not very easy to do in the US. Impossible now. A couple of ideas for videos - I have a strong interest (and a small collection) in Post War Japanese Pop music - 1940s; 50's & 60a. The records, the artwork on the sleeves and the music. That might be an interesting topic. The artists; the studios and the companies that produced them. Also, the factory that makes Isamu Noguchi's Akari Light sculptures - still by hand, might be very interesting and along these lines. Thanks again.

    I really disagree with the framing of the old guy. It seems like he has some sort of insecurity or something to want Japanese people to take DNA tests. He will be very disappointed lmao. Yes, human beings did start in the continent of Africa, and we are still extremely similar genetically if not near identical. However, the small adaptations human beings began to develop differentiates them from each other. South Saharan Africans have very dark skin while Europeans have very light skin. East Asians developed epicanthic folds on their eyes (monolids) which differentiates them from others. Identities are built off of physical characteristics and culture. I agree with the lady in the orange jacket. Genetics are quite the dice roll.
