Bad men and good clothes

I forgot in last entry several things, including the inspiration for my Yukata hair style I found in a magazine dedicated only to hair arranges that would fit Yukata. The first one was actually my top choice but since it is complicated and would have taklen too much time the hair stylist and I decided on something close to the second one. Still I would love to try it out on a more hair-friendly day in spring or autumn. Even the hair stylist thought it was really unique and pretty.

Second one:

Any Yukata/Kimono hair styles you like to try out or already tried?

The other thing is a short episode of human sweetness followed by cruelness I had during the Hanabi. Actually less than the fireworks I was absorbed with a cute baby girl. She, her grandmother and mother waved and laughed at me during the whole event and when it was time to leave they came with the baby car to me. Baby girl grabbed my hands and did not let go (cuteness) which was when her father uttered the following:

"Unlike your mother that big sister is beautiful, I understand, but still you have to let go"

Infront of his wife and the baby`s mother. That is not the way to have a happy marriage, mister!

Essentials of Japanese Summer

An essential part of Japanese summer is of course Hanabi, fireworks shows, and wearing a Yukata (thin summer kimono; still wearing it is certainly less comfortable and hotter than your average maxi summer dress) to it.

I decided on a Yukata set which included also hair accessories, Geta (traditional sandals), Obi, and other necessaries for under 10 00 Yen. usually those sets are cheaply produced and look that way (some of the gal brands ones, like Cecil McBee, tend to be that way) but this one actual has quality and a bit of a unique use of color. The base is soft purple, which is a color I actually did not see on anyone at the last firework shows I went to, with pink, white, yellow and black flowers.

Before the Hanabi I was stressed and had no time at all for styling myself, plus I am anyway clumsy so I got dressed up and got my hair done by a hair salon. I reserved their Yukata package over the Internet the night before. Pretty abrupt but I can recommend that service to everyone! The outcome was something like this:

It maybe does not look like it but it was a pretty complicated style and lots and lots of hair pins had to be used to keep everything up. (Not very pleasing for my scalp...XD)
