What kind of face do you want to have? Young girls in Tokyo want to have a face like following Japanese celebrities. Namie Amuro, YOU, Suzanne, Kaera Kimura, Aoi Miyazaki, Keiko Kitagawa, Erika Sawajiri, Nozomi Sasaki.

They indeed are so pretty!
In Japan, orthopedic operation is not as popular as in Korea. Suzanne looks like mixed blood, but she is full Japanese. She makes her face look like half, but she does that by makeup.

Mr. Tamura (TamTam) is a specialist to "dekame" (big round eyes).
His makeup gives us the impression of orthopedic surgery. He is so popular as to take care of cover girls for many fashion magazines.
Many of the Japanese do not have double folded eyelids but we think Western beauty is the beauty. That's why we have to rely on such an interesting gadget to make double folded eyelids. It's made of fiber tape and it's to be glued on the eyelids.

Japanese people like "dekame" (dekai=big me=eye(s)) and so, fake eyelashes are selling crazy. 100 yen shop in Harajuku deals with as many as 38 kinds of disposable fake eyelashes. There are also tourists from Australia who shop them to cover the usage of 1 year!

Let's take a look how high school girls wearing fake eyelashes. They use 2 or 3 different kinds of combination and spend as much as 1 hour to complete their dekame! "New half" means beautiful men and transsexuals dressed in women's clothes. Sometimes they act more feminine than real women. The hair wig store in Shibuya developped the one for Namie Amuro, a famous Jpop singar, and their wigs are heat-resistant against hot hair iron.

Japanese hair styles are very popular in Beiging, China. Japanese hair stylists who moved to Beijing to open Japanese-style hair salon for Chinese women are very successful now. Their price is 4 times as expensive as average hair salons in Beijing. Nevertheless, their salon is alwaya full of reservations. Mr.Asakura, the owner of this hair salon is originally from Kagawa prefecture, Japan. He had experienced salons in Tokyo and London before he came to Beijing 4 years ago. He was also introduced by a Chinese business magazine, as one of the most successful 20 foreign company owners in China. His salon has now as many as over 700 customers and is open 365 days a year! What's good about him is that he is good at arranging Japanese popular hair styles into Chinese ways. Chinese have different nature of hair, compared with Japanese. Climate is also different. It's more dry in China. He takes all these into consideration to find Chinese ways.

Makeup is fun; if you mistake, just wash it off.
3 models have changed so differently with makeup.

Kirin's opinion:

"Dekame" (big round eyes) are the must-have for girls to be pretty in your country, too? I can see that Japanese people appreciate Western beauty so much, and Japanese beauty with almond shaped eyes are not often regarded as kawaii here. It's not interesting that everyone tries to be the same sort of looking. What do you think? How are things in your country?
