Japanese girls submit to 2 hours agony for alluring coiffure.
Few people who admire the beautiful hairdresses of Japanese girls realise the excruciating physical punishment they go through to obtain them.
These pictures show the intricate processes which go to make the final effect, after two hours work on the part of the Kamiyuisan (hairdresser).
The subject for the pictures, Adrienne Moore, and when the coiffure was finished she said that when reclining in a chair she felt as if Haskell was being told out and found that lying down was almost impossible. Another fact she discovered was that Japanese women do not need to have the lovely thick tresses which the hairdress implies. Much false hair is used as padding and when finished, the coiffure weighs about 10 pounds. The headdress shown is the Shimada, most beautiful of all hairstyles, which is worn for the last time when the girl marries.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the untold story behind the alluring coiffures of Japanese girls. While many admire their beautiful hairdos, few realize the excruciating physical agony these girls endure to achieve them. The intricate processes involved in creating these stunning hairstyles are revealed through these pictures, showcasing the two hours of dedicated work by the skilled Kamiyuisan (hairdresser). The subject of this particular photoshoot is Adrienne Moore, who experienced firsthand the discomfort caused by her elaborate coiffure. As she reclined in a chair, she felt as if her scalp was being pulled and found lying down almost impossible. Additionally, it came as a surprise to her that Japanese women do not naturally possess such thick tresses; much false hair is used for padding purposes. In fact, once completed, this specific coiffure weighs approximately 10 pounds. The headdress depicted in this image is known as Shimada - considered one of the most beautiful hairstyles worn by Japanese women during their wedding ceremonies. It symbolizes a significant milestone in their lives. Through this thought-provoking photograph from TopFoto. co. uk, we gain insight into the dedication and sacrifice required to achieve traditional Japanese hairstyles. It serves as a reminder that beauty often comes at a price and invites us to appreciate not only the final result but also the journey undertaken to attain it.
