>>6 well its mostly just fashion to me, but it differs for all people. some people say its a lifestyle, i call it japanese street fashion. it originally was dressing opposite to what people found beautiful, so dark skin, lots of white and black makeup, but now its evolved into different sub styles, but all gyarus know its necessary to work the style with confidence, thats the start. most styles require fake lashes and circle lenses (neither of which i have teehee i mean come on, doing that in highschool? not. happening) wearing fashionable clothes and having your nails done. thats pretty much gyaru in a nutshell. with that being said, it doesnt mean you have to do all that all of the time! i love to bum it sometimes in a t-shirt and sweats. i see no problem with it!
