Template:Short description Script error: No such module "redirect hatnote". Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
The Script error: No such module "Nihongo". is a hairstyle consisting of straight, usually cheek-length sidelocks and frontal fringe. The rest of the hair is usually worn long and straightened. The style is thought to have originated, or at least become common, in the Imperial court during 794-1185 CE, when noble women would sometimes grow out their hair for their entire lives.[1]
History
According to Professor Tomita of Yamano College of Aesthetics, the Script error: No such module "lang". cut originated from the hairstyles of noblewomen in the Heian period in Japan.[1][2] Noblewomen in the Heian period had their hair styled in the Script error: No such module "Nihongo". and Script error: No such module "lang". styles.Template:Explain When a woman reached the age of 16, the hair around her ears would be cut shorter than the rest of her hair in a ceremony called Script error: No such module "Nihongo"., resulting in short forelocks at the front and long hair at the back. In the Edo period, this ceremony was held on June 16 at the age of 16, and a woman's fiancé or her father or brother cut her hair.[3][4]
Though not known as the Script error: No such module "lang". cut at the time, the name "Script error: No such module "lang". cut" seems to have been retroactively applied in association with princesses of the Heian aristocracy, due to their depiction in media with the hairstyle.
A 1970s idol, Megumi Asaoka, is known in Japan for popularizing the Script error: No such module "lang". cut, which became her trademark.[5][6]
Styling
The Script error: No such module "lang". cut is high maintenance for those without naturally straight hair, and requires frequent touch-ups on the sidelocks and front bangs in order to maintain its shape. Hair straightening is sometimes used to achieve the hairstyle's straight appearance, as well as straightening irons and specially formulated shampoos for straight hair. Humidity is also cited as a problem with certain hair types, as the curling caused by excess humidity can change the shape of the hair. Occasionally, hair extensions are used for the side locks in order to prevent this.
The hairstyle is frequently seen in Lolita fashion, especially the classification of Gothic Lolita. Within the Lolita community, the Script error: No such module "lang". cut is considered a more elegant alternative to other styles that may require frequent curling and crimping that can permanently damage the hair.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
