Ikr 😢 i just got into it but i immediately lose 70% of the excitement 😭 i really like collect fashion statement pieces so it's a big deal for me whether or not i can find the pieces
I recently got into gyaru. It’s the only fashion/lifestyle that I feel super happy within. I haven’t had confidence for many years but whenever I wear gyaru clothing, I feel so confident & like myself again!🥰 Sad it’s so overlooked but thank you for such an informative video💞
you’re the nicest gyaru I’ve met and you always give reassuring comments about ways to maintain gyaru lifestyle because sometime I feel like I can’t be gyaru bc I’m lacking in some areas but you give the best advice thank you!
girlie i WISH i was naturally tan!! your skin is completely normal and beautiful and i bet youre a literal GODDESS 🫶🫶🫶 dont feel let down because of it, youre beautifulll
I love this style- and it’s so nice that small creators like you are still giving tips on less popular styles. Alternative and J-fashion has become way more popular again lately, but gyaru is still so overlooked! Also your eye makeup is amazing
LOOOVE this video! I think explaining that gyaru is niche is important. Be prepared to have to explain it to ppl many times and the roots of it esp outsiders haha. And be ok that most ppl wont get it or understand the appeal
Awh thank you so much! And yes I agree. We don't realise how niche it is because we're in an echo chamber and are actively searching for gyaru inspo, but it'll be hard to come across as an outsider!
Ive been on and off as a Gyaru for quite some time now. I decided again I would try once more after being discouraged seeing the backlash the style got on TikTok a year or so ago. It feels nice and it really gives me an excuse to not feel bad for taking care of myself and watching over my looks. (I grew up in a household where any percentage of vanity was seen as narcissistic) I dont think i could ever look back now! Also I am glad past me never sold her Alba Rosa coat 😭💗
I'm looking into gyaru because I was first atrrached by the face make up and fun loving nature! I'm thinking of trying Ageojo and Hime Gyaru~ Of course with a lot of research before! But I think it will also be a lot of fun looking for second hand clothes haha
Hello,I also wanna try gyaru style (kogal style)I really love the combination of schoolgirl style and a lot of accesories and make up.It's really sad that in my country this style is really underrated,no one knows about the gyaru community and J fashion in general.
i just started getting into gyaru this year even though i've been interested in it as long as i've been interested in fashion (which is roughly 4-5 year now) but i'm so intimidated by it:(( there's so many rules and do's and don'ts that it lowkey makes to too scared to commit as much as i want to. i know its not on purpose but lots of gals seem so intimidating and strict with the rules it makes me feel like a poser when i try to the point i feel like fraud when i try to call myself gyaru
I recommend starting small by first focusing on the makeup and hair styling before moving onto other things! Also, not posting on social media might help take the pressure off 😊
I've had a hilarious, tangential relationship with Gyaru. Gyaru influenced SO much of my early artistic inspiration and while I'm not into the style (I'm an OLD school goth in a young woman's body 😂), I LOVE the attitude and freedom gyaru express! Much love and luck wished to my gyaru sisters. We may look different, but our souls are free in the same way. 🖤
I've adored hime-gyaru and himekaji long before knowing the styles by name. I still can't dress how I want most of the time due to unsupportive family members. Would you mind making a video addressing this topic? 🥹 Lovely content as usual!
Aaah thank you so much! 💕 I've actually done a video that's very similar to the one you're asking for - ruclips.net/video/aZJvhn9jJoM/видео.html hope that helps!
You have such a sweet and encouraging way of speaking! Even though I'm more an early 2000's fashion fan, your video definitely helped me consider incorporating Gyaru elements into my style! Thank you so much for this!
I'm so glad that I found this video before diving into gyaru fashion 😊 The gyaru culture has always been interesting to me and I can't wait to start my journey
thank you so much! i'm very late to this video but i've been really wanting to get into gyaru ever since i was in 7th grade... i'm in 9th grade now. it's nice seeing other dark haired gyarus! i'm not that tan, have dark hair, and don't wear circle lenses either so i'm really glad i can look up to you~~ but i curl my hair every day with heatless curls and i'm planning on getting some circle lenses soon ! ^_^
There’s one question that’s been sitting with me: is the idea of the gyaru subculture that the fashion still looks a lot like the 1990s to 2000s? When I look up gyaru I find very old school styles, but in shows like My Dress Uo Darling, you can argue that Marin is a gyaru but looks very modern in her style
Heya! Gyaru nowadays does look like how Marin dresses. A key example of gyaru in today's era is the models from egg magazine! But tbh it's all down to personal preference. I love old school himekaji so I dress in that 😊
Awh thank you so so much! And one of my close friends did a lil' video on the history of gyaru, would highly recommend it 💖 ruclips.net/video/TA5l2FlnHaI/видео.html
I love gyaru fashion!! Its litterally my hyperfixationnn im a gyaru too but i dont really do makeup, maybe because im litterally in 6 grade? Idek I STILL LOVE ITTTTT
great video!! i’ve loved gyaru for years, it’s so cool! but recently i really have been wanting to get into it. no matter how many styles i like or try to get into, i always fall back onto wanting gyaru clothes. it just feels soooo hard ti find where to start 😭😭😭
I have lots of advice and tutorials over on my blog ! 💖 Unfortunately there are loads of scalpers now so it's hard to find brand items for cheap... I have been buying from shein recently as they've done some dupes!
I’m so happy to have found your channel! I started trying out gyaru a few years ago, after wanting to try it for a really long time, but it seemed like its popularity was really on the decline. I’ve kept elements in my style but I’m really interested in delving back into it, but I’m so stuck on where to go for resources and like, finding a community. I’ve had look at your blog and plan to have a better browse through it in the morning so perhaps you’ve touched on this there but if not, I’d be so appreciative if you could maybe give me some pointers on finding gyaru communities? Both online and in person communities. Thank you so much for making these videos! 💗
Hey cutie! Aaah that makes me so happy to hear! There are lots of Gals on Instagram if you search under the gaijin gyaru hashtag, and there are also fb groups that you can join! ❤️
To be honest I feel like you don't necessarily need gyaru brand clothes, buy secondhand then buy main pieces...like thrifting an outfit then buying that expensive main piece...Idk, Ik people might not agree with me but that is just how I feel
My tip is that when you don't have money for a tanning salon, you can travel to a beach to get tanned on sunny days, you will also guarantee great gyaru photos on the beach 😁🤩 (I live in Rio de Janeiro, and I know that isn't a thing for most people, but it's an idea for vacations)
I’m in the jirai kei community but I’m not actively joining clubs etc I have one really good friend and I like to keep it that way. But I’ve always been a lover of gyaru since I was like 9 😂 I always watch video on gyaru it’s very interesting
I definitely can't buy gyaru brands unfortunately! I'm plus size (UK size 18-20) so I'd only be able to get secondhand accessories. Do you need brand to be gyaru? My first outfit is kogal just because it's easier to style however I want to delve more into agejo as kogal seems a little odd when you're in your 20s ^^;
You don't need brand to be gal as long as you match the overall aesthetic! And yeah tbh... I agree haha. That's why I don't really do kogal anymore unless it's for halloween or something !
DID YOU ALSO MAKE THE GYARU WEBSITE? I LOVE ITT! I STARTED TO RESEARCH ABT GYARU AND STUFF TODAY ( I knew and liked the style for a long timey just wasn't sure)
I've been interested in the gyaru style since I was a kid, and I want to start dressing in it now. I wanna mix gyaruo with different sub-styles of gyaru instead of strictly sticking to one, but idk if it would be looked down upon or even "allowed"???? (im trying to educate myself more about this lifestyle, so ANY tips, tricks, or advice related to it are very much appreciated ♡)
I have a question, I have been wanting to try out gyaru but the sub-style kogal/kogyaru (I already have a lot of the clothing/items since I already wear Sanriocore/ Angura Kei) , would it still be considered "mainstream" gyaru or would is it recognized as a different type of gyaru entirely?
Yep kogal is a gyaru substyle so it would be classed as gyaru! I think my only qualm about kogal is that (and this is only my personal opinion) is that it does seem very cosplay-y, especially if you're not a student
Ahhz i actually barkey got jnto it and i was wondering if u have any good stores/websites or plaves to look for gyaru cloghes / accecories bevause im doing research but can barley find stuff
Oh! Really interesting! 😬 Well... You're probably one of the nicest people I know... Whether you're Gyaru or not... So everyone else wouldn't be as nice as you either way...
So like for almost 2 years ive kinda liked a pink and black like style and now i recently descorverd gyaru and ive like LOVE gyaru agejo and even if there is barley any vids about it i like waching gyaru vids and i love ur vids so im just asking do you know any brands that would fit that aesthetic ? My school starts in 2 days and i wanna wear somthing kinda like gyaru agejo (but not to much bc its like the 1st day but soon i will do more) and im kinda confident bc i do kinda wear stuff like that but im kinda scared to tell my freinds (i told my siblings and they say its pretty cool) but im scared to tell my freinds bc i know they will not like some types of gyaru (i know them) but i aslo think theres ones they would like and like im kinda sad bc its not popular but if theres also people like thw who just discoverd gyaru and like some substyles why dont we just like work together to bring it back ?!? Like maybe just a bit
Aaah I love love love agejo!! Unfortunately it is a very dead style (as with.. Pretty much 99% gal styles 😅) so you'll have to buy things secondhand. MA*RS is one of the most well-known agejo brands!
hi~ i have a bit of a question that i’m not really sure what to do about (*´Д｀*) i’ve loved gyaru dearly for a few years now and i’ve done my research but theres one thing. i’m autistic and I truly CANNOT handle wearing makeup due to sensory issues. can i still be gyaru without the makeup because of this?
Hey 💕 this is super tricky for me to answer but in short... No, not really 😰 even old school gals at least had deep tans, eyeliner and lots of highlight and that is the absolute minimum I've seen. I'm so sorry but throughout the ages the thing in common with gyaru is that they all wear makeup.... I wrote a blog post with some examples : www.hellolizziebee.com/can-i-still-be-gyaru-if/
@@HelloLizzieBee its totally alright, that’s sort of what i was thinking anyways! but thank you so much for answering so quickly haha (*^▽^*) i’ll just admire from the sidelines~ keep rocking!!!!
I'd look at general gyaru kei - take a look at old magazine scans (galrevo has looooooads and loads of scans) because you'll find that gals actually wear pretty "normal" clothes and it's all about the makeup etc! I'd recommend magazines like EGG and Popteen on there :D
as a person living in hk, amazon and ebay doesnt really help tbh, and every style is 'douyin makeup' and my mom calls girls with makeup 'whores' so I might keep it as a secret and this subculture is so cool :D
any tips for a short brown haired gal with glasses and no nails? I'm a rokku and I pretty much dominate the makeup but I've been focusing on other stuff I could improve, I bought graduated contacts that are still waiting to deliver so I can do more toned down makeup since I'm currently in boarding school, but im not sure if it will be my cup of tea and I may prefer just using my glasses if I end up not liking wearing contacts. my hair is short and brown with a shaved part, I put hairclips on it. I bought some halloween styled nails but I realized later that I won't be able to use them because I'm on music class and I play guitar x"D... Any tips? I know u can technically be a gal with the things I described but I can't help but feel like a wannabe without them lol
Gal is all about the overall look: if you're missing some aspects, you got to make up for it in other areas. Can you curl your hair? Tease it? Can you go more ott with your outfits? Sorry it's hard for me to give advice without seeing what I'm working with 😅
I think I mentioned in my video that gal brands are pretty much dead 😅 you'll either have to buy secondhand or buy stuff on shein and do reiwa/modern gal
@@HelloLizzieBee thank you! Also can you switch from other Gyaru styles? (Example: I love Kogal but can I also wear the other ones as well?) I want to try other styles of Gyaru not just Kogal all the time.
Hi! Aspiring and young haady gyaru here! I had a few questions! 1) Do I have do dress gyaru everyday? I’m also a scene kid and was wondering if I had to to be considered gyaru. 2) Is my hair okay? I have a mix of 3b and 3C curl pattern so I was wondering if I could style this instead of straightening my hair or a wig. And 3) do I have to wear extreme makeup? I want to do haady gyaru makeup. However, I go to a religious school and wouldn’t be able to wear it there. But I would be able to wear out some not-so-extreme makeup outside of school! Hope this wasn’t a mouthful!
1. You don't always have to wear gyaru but sure enough u have to wear gyaru to be apart of it! but like I said u don't have to everyday 2. some gals have curly hair and that's fine especially straightened hair! I usually see gals curl their wigs alot so it's completely fine 3. haady gyaru from what I've read has classic gyaru makeup and neon colours but you can definitely wear the makeup outside of school like me! but I really recommend you go find more info on gyaru websites or anything like that but I wouldn't recommend finding info on tiktok some of the info on there isn't the best explanation. Hopefully this helped I haven't dug into alot of haady gyaru since I've only been a gal for a full year now but yeah just find alot of info about it to learn more!
Sorry it took me so long to respond! 1) Nope - but obviously when you do your scene looks, that won't be classed as gal 2) Your hair sounds absolutely fine! No need to worry about wigs and extensions etc. I really look forward to how you style it for gal 💖 3) Makeup doesn't have to be extreme per say but it definitely has to exist hahahaha. Maybe don't wear it for school and do it outside of school and on weekends? :D Hope that helps 💖
Hmm this is kinda tricky... What is it about gyaru that makes you like it? Perhaps there's another style that's similar that isn't so makeup-focused? ☺️
Unfortunately there is a higher chance of this happening when wearing an alternative fashion... Perhaps you could first try experimenting with the makeup rather than going all in?
@@HelloLizzieBeeI do the makeup currently and I think it looks super cute!I'm planning on maybe wearing just more lowkey pink cute items thank you so much though!
I'm a younger gyaru, not saying how old for obv reasons, its even more challenging to find clothes! The only places I can shop online is Amazon, any keywords I could use? Thanks o(*°▽°*)o (my mom doesnt typically like gyaru, tips?)
I'd recommend looking through mag scans and picking out a couple of your favourite outfits and try to replicate them! That'll help you with your search terms 😊 what is it that your mum doesn't like about gyaru? The makeup? Clothes?
Hii! So im pretty young and i really wanna be a gal but because of that my mom wouldn't really allow make up ECT so can anyone help me find looks that have less make up?
Ur voice is so relaxing ur literally my favorite gyaru of all time!!! (￣▽￣) I have a question too, I love all gyaru sub styles idk what to chose I’m a obligated to take only one sub style or can I have many?
Aah thank you so much cutie pie! And nope, you don't have to choose a specific substyle. I've been switching between loads of them for years! They're just there to serve as like... Guidelines 😊
The easiest way to answer this is - if you don't look gyaru then you're not gyaru.... I might do another video or blog post shout this because I feel like I need to go into more depth
hi lizzie!! may i ask if you can have black hair and still be gyaru? i’ve heard that you have to have bleached or at least dark brown hair to be considered gyaru
Yes, you can have dark hair as long as you look gyaru. You might have to work harder on your overall appearance like makeup, hair styling and clothes 😊
Hiii!!! I am super super superrrr late but I came here as a person who is getting into gyaru and I have a question!!! Will I get hate just cuz im white??? Ive seen lots of pins of gyaru and its only asian (mostly japanese)girls ://help plssss!!
This video is old but i have a question,is it racist/asianfishing(idk do you call it that?) When ure gyaru but ure not asian?I once posted a tiktok and people started calling me racist,etc..And if so,is there a name for a non asian gyaru?😭
Hey i wrote another comment but i have a question,i've been getting a lot of mixed opinions from people online so i wanna ask you,do you think any race can be a gyaru?i know your a gyaru but im white and some people told me itsvracist:(
i want to feel the gyaru golden era 😭
Same 😭😭😭
Ikr 😢 i just got into it but i immediately lose 70% of the excitement 😭 i really like collect fashion statement pieces so it's a big deal for me whether or not i can find the pieces
No idea gyaru was still a thing, I loved it back in the day 😭 also, love seeing dark haired gals for a change 🖤
Yep, we're still here! And thank you so much 💖
I honestly think it’s coming back but within alternative subcultures
I see a lot of brown haired agejo gals
I have brown hair !
I recently got into gyaru. It’s the only fashion/lifestyle that I feel super happy within.
I haven’t had confidence for many years but whenever I wear gyaru clothing, I feel so confident & like myself again!🥰 Sad it’s so overlooked but thank you for such an informative video💞
Awh that makes me so happy to hear! 💖

Awh thank you so so much! If you need any help please let me know ❤️
I remember my first time in Tokyo seeing the gyaru in Shibuya. I was so intrigued by them, their subculture looked so fun and carefree.
That's so amazing! I hardly saw any when I was in Shibuya 😭
Usually I hate my skin because of the way our society views it, but in this aspect since I’m naturally tan, I feel grateful lol.
Awh yay I'm glad to hear that 💕
girlie i WISH i was naturally tan!! your skin is completely normal and beautiful and i bet youre a literal GODDESS 🫶🫶🫶 dont feel let down because of it, youre beautifulll

Omg YES Becoming Gyaru has helped me really appreciate my skin tone. ( I used to hate it)
Bank account also empty cause you get addicted to visiting Japan to live your gal life in karaoke, purikura and parapara!

I love gyaru style forever but heavy makeup doesn’t suit me I always feel silly when I try wear eyeshadow and countour
Awh no, that's a shame! Maybe it's something you just need to get used to?
seeing yourself with alot of gyaru makeup on would seem odd lol, just have too get use too it
I think you don’t need to be in any comunnity, and there will be still people that have problem with you. But you have to find people that adore you.
Yessss, totally agree!
I love this sub-culture! I wanna try it.
Aaah yes it's amazing isn't it 😍
i wish i was alive in the 90's , then in japan i could get gyaru clothes
Same 😭 or the early 2000s!
I recently saw a video of someone saying certain makeup things can be asian fishing, is it okay as a white person to dress and wear gyaru makeup?
Gal makeup isn't Asian fishing, and yes anyone can do gal regardless of race
aa ppl think it's asian fishing?? 😭
Thank you for sharing this.
Thanks for watching! 😊
I've been interested in the gyaru style since I was a kid, and I want to start dressing in it now. I wanna mix gyaruo with different sub-styles of gyaru instead of strictly sticking to one, but idk if it would be looked down upon or even "allowed"????
(im trying to educate myself more about this lifestyle, so ANY tips, tricks, or advice related to it are very much appreciated ♡)
I don't see why not! Go for it 🥰 I have loooooads of advice on my blog!
Any tips on younger people wanting to try out gyaru fashion?😭😭
I wrote a lil guide on my blog about how to get started in gal 😊

@@HelloLizzieBee Ah thank you sm!!😊
I have a question, I have been wanting to try out gyaru but the sub-style kogal/kogyaru (I already have a lot of the clothing/items since I already wear Sanriocore/ Angura Kei) , would it still be considered "mainstream" gyaru or would is it recognized as a different type of gyaru entirely?
Yep kogal is a gyaru substyle so it would be classed as gyaru! I think my only qualm about kogal is that (and this is only my personal opinion) is that it does seem very cosplay-y, especially if you're not a student
Ahhz i actually barkey got jnto it and i was wondering if u have any good stores/websites or plaves to look for gyaru cloghes / accecories bevause im doing research but can barley find stuff
I wrote a blog post on where to buy gyaru brand! www.hellolizziebee.com/where-how-to-buy-gyaru-brand/
Oh! Really interesting! 😬
Well... You're probably one of the nicest people I know... Whether you're Gyaru or not... So everyone else wouldn't be as nice as you either way...
Awh you're so sweet! Thank you so much 🥰 honestly though I absolutely adore the gal comm and they are super nice!
Can you also wear different color hair extensions. In other styles of gyaru. I see them have colorful hair as well
Yes you can 😊😊
Hiiii, I'm an 11-year-old Brazilian baby gyaru, you inspire me a lot! Always continue to be that glamorous icon !
Awh thank you so so much! 🥰
omgg me too!! I'm not brazilian but anywho.. goodluck on Ur journey aswell :3
I found out that asian face will suit gyaru better 😂
Well gyaru did originate from Japan... 😂
So like for almost 2 years ive kinda liked a pink and black like style and now i recently descorverd gyaru and ive like LOVE gyaru agejo and even if there is barley any vids about it i like waching gyaru vids and i love ur vids so im just asking do you know any brands that would fit that aesthetic ? My school starts in 2 days and i wanna wear somthing kinda like gyaru agejo (but not to much bc its like the 1st day but soon i will do more) and im kinda confident bc i do kinda wear stuff like that but im kinda scared to tell my freinds (i told my siblings and they say its pretty cool) but im scared to tell my freinds bc i know they will not like some types of gyaru (i know them) but i aslo think theres ones they would like and like im kinda sad bc its not popular but if theres also people like thw who just discoverd gyaru and like some substyles why dont we just like work together to bring it back ?!? Like maybe just a bit
But idc if people say negative comments but im not gonna do EVREYTHING at the same time just bit by bit
Aaah I love love love agejo!! Unfortunately it is a very dead style (as with.. Pretty much 99% gal styles 😅) so you'll have to buy things secondhand. MA*RS is one of the most well-known agejo brands!
I'd say for now, focus on hair and makeup ❤️
@HelloLizzieBee tysm for advice!!
No more gyaru brands nooo i rlly wanted to try put this style
Unfortunately they all died so we can only get secondhand now... 😭 But you can find some good things from local stores and do offbrand outfits!
Im just getting into gyaru and I’m just using the clothes I have 🙃
That's what I did when I first stayed, too!

Aaaah so lucky! ;;
hi~ i have a bit of a question that i’m not really sure what to do about (*´Д｀*) i’ve loved gyaru dearly for a few years now and i’ve done my research but theres one thing. i’m autistic and I truly CANNOT handle wearing makeup due to sensory issues. can i still be gyaru without the makeup because of this?
Hey 💕 this is super tricky for me to answer but in short... No, not really 😰 even old school gals at least had deep tans, eyeliner and lots of highlight and that is the absolute minimum I've seen. I'm so sorry but throughout the ages the thing in common with gyaru is that they all wear makeup....
I wrote a blog post with some examples :
www.hellolizziebee.com/can-i-still-be-gyaru-if/
@@HelloLizzieBee its totally alright, that’s sort of what i was thinking anyways! but thank you so much for answering so quickly haha (*^▽^*) i’ll just admire from the sidelines~ keep rocking!!!!
I'm so sorry I couldn't really be of any help 😥😥 but thank you for being so kind!
@@HelloLizzieBee you’re completely fine!! and thank you so much
Can someone help I want a gyaru style but like a more simple version of it. Not that much of accessories and make up. Is there a substyle like this?
Himekaji can be a simple substyle! you can try that out
@gyarutopic tysmm
I'd look at general gyaru kei - take a look at old magazine scans (galrevo has looooooads and loads of scans) because you'll find that gals actually wear pretty "normal" clothes and it's all about the makeup etc! I'd recommend magazines like EGG and Popteen on there :D
@@HelloLizzieBee ty
as a person living in hk, amazon and ebay doesnt really help tbh, and every style is 'douyin makeup' and my mom calls girls with makeup 'whores' so I might keep it as a secret and this subculture is so cool :D
tbh I'm pretty lazy, could I wear a wig
Yes, you can wear a wig!
Aaaah good luck!
any tips for a short brown haired gal with glasses and no nails? I'm a rokku and I pretty much dominate the makeup but I've been focusing on other stuff I could improve, I bought graduated contacts that are still waiting to deliver so I can do more toned down makeup since I'm currently in boarding school, but im not sure if it will be my cup of tea and I may prefer just using my glasses if I end up not liking wearing contacts.
my hair is short and brown with a shaved part, I put hairclips on it.
I bought some halloween styled nails but I realized later that I won't be able to use them because I'm on music class and I play guitar x"D...
Any tips? I know u can technically be a gal with the things I described but I can't help but feel like a wannabe without them lol
Gal is all about the overall look: if you're missing some aspects, you got to make up for it in other areas. Can you curl your hair? Tease it? Can you go more ott with your outfits? Sorry it's hard for me to give advice without seeing what I'm working with 😅
Jesus Diamante still does Hime style I think
Yes, it does! It's one of the very few that remain
@@HelloLizzieBee Cool! What are the other ones?
There aren't any left haha other than JD in terms of hime unless you buy old stock secondhand
@@HelloLizzieBee Oh! What about gyaru in general? Any brands that still do that style?
I think I mentioned in my video that gal brands are pretty much dead 😅 you'll either have to buy secondhand or buy stuff on shein and do reiwa/modern gal
Hi! Quick question, do I have to do the proper iconic make-up to be gyaru?
Yes! 😊
So 1st you wonderful. Im just a punkkurololita but more as grunge or eh emo. So jeah love out❤❤
Oh i love tangurls😢 (everyone loved my white european skin😂❤)
Awh thank you! 😊
I love the fashion
Me too!
can u make a video on how to meet ppl in the subculture ? im brand new and id love to meet some ppl i can talk w :
I'll do my best!
i do NAURT wanna have to spend money on tans!!! so upsetting :(
For the majority of the substyles, you don't have to!
Where would you recommend as a starting point for changing to gyaru style?
I have lots of articles for beginners on my blog! www.hellolizziebee.com/gyaru-for-beginners-checklist/
@@HelloLizzieBee thank you! Also can you switch from other Gyaru styles? (Example: I love Kogal but can I also wear the other ones as well?) I want to try other styles of Gyaru not just Kogal all the time.
Yes definitely! 😊
how can i do gyaru makeup without lashess plz help mee!!
Ooh maybe follow the eye makeup routine as normal, but instead of lashes just put on lots and lots of mascara ❤️
@@HelloLizzieBee Thank youu💖💖💖
Hi! Aspiring and young haady gyaru here! I had a few questions!
1) Do I have do dress gyaru everyday? I’m also a scene kid and was wondering if I had to to be considered gyaru.
2) Is my hair okay? I have a mix of 3b and 3C curl pattern so I was wondering if I could style this instead of straightening my hair or a wig.
And 3) do I have to wear extreme makeup? I want to do haady gyaru makeup. However, I go to a religious school and wouldn’t be able to wear it there. But I would be able to wear out some not-so-extreme makeup outside of school!
Hope this wasn’t a mouthful!
1. You don't always have to wear gyaru but sure enough u have to wear gyaru to be apart of it! but like I said u don't have to everyday
2. some gals have curly hair and that's fine especially straightened hair! I usually see gals curl their wigs alot so it's completely fine
3. haady gyaru from what I've read has classic gyaru makeup and neon colours but you can definitely wear the makeup outside of school like me!
but I really recommend you go find more info on gyaru websites or anything like that but I wouldn't recommend finding info on tiktok some of the info on there isn't the best explanation. Hopefully this helped I haven't dug into alot of haady gyaru since I've only been a gal for a full year now but yeah just find alot of info about it to learn more!
@ thank you so so much! This was super helpful and I appreciate you so much! Have an amazing rest of your day/evening/night
@echoonpawss you're welcome!
Sorry it took me so long to respond!
1) Nope - but obviously when you do your scene looks, that won't be classed as gal
2) Your hair sounds absolutely fine! No need to worry about wigs and extensions etc. I really look forward to how you style it for gal 💖
3) Makeup doesn't have to be extreme per say but it definitely has to exist hahahaha. Maybe don't wear it for school and do it outside of school and on weekends? :D
Hope that helps 💖
@ thank you so much and don’t worry about the late response! I really appreciate it!!
Can you be gyaru and not wear makeup BECAUSE of your faith or religion?
Hmm this is kinda tricky... What is it about gyaru that makes you like it? Perhaps there's another style that's similar that isn't so makeup-focused? ☺️
Hi can i have some help?i sometimes feel as if i wanna be kogal gyaru but i go to school and i think im gonna get made fun of:(
Unfortunately there is a higher chance of this happening when wearing an alternative fashion... Perhaps you could first try experimenting with the makeup rather than going all in?
@@HelloLizzieBeeI do the makeup currently and I think it looks super cute!I'm planning on maybe wearing just more lowkey pink cute items thank you so much though!
I’m gonna be broke because if I go to Japan I’ll spend all my money on the Japanese Pokemon Center and playing arcade rhythm games.
Omg I feel you! I spent so much on sanrio stuff and trying to win in arcades but I lost every time 😭
Hello Lizzie Bee And I’ve never been to Japan before so I might expect spending a bajillion dollars on Pokemon plushes and rhythm games.
@@yoshisarethebomb Awh that sounds like a plan!
I'm a younger gyaru, not saying how old for obv reasons, its even more challenging to find clothes! The only places I can shop online is Amazon, any keywords I could use? Thanks o(*°▽°*)o (my mom doesnt typically like gyaru, tips?)
I'd recommend looking through mag scans and picking out a couple of your favourite outfits and try to replicate them! That'll help you with your search terms 😊 what is it that your mum doesn't like about gyaru? The makeup? Clothes?
@@HelloLizzieBee She says "its just an 80s girl with a perm and tacky trashy animal print outfit" , thank you btw !
@MixedC0rpse Thank you! I'll try looking for some
I’m 13 and I wanna join to the gyaru community!! Do you recommend me anything to start??
Ooh so there are a couple of gyaru fb groups you can join!
Hii! So im pretty young and i really wanna be a gal but because of that my mom wouldn't really allow make up ECT so can anyone help me find looks that have less make up?
Unfortunately gal has a huge focus on makeup... 😰
@@HelloLizzieBee aw man :/
@@HelloLizzieBee But I've already seen like kihal type stuff. I'm not really sure bc i have bad memory. So yeah btw thanks for replying
Ur voice is so relaxing ur literally my favorite gyaru of all time!!! (￣▽￣)
I have a question too, I love all gyaru sub styles idk what to chose I’m a obligated to take only one sub style or can I have many?
Aah thank you so much cutie pie! And nope, you don't have to choose a specific substyle. I've been switching between loads of them for years! They're just there to serve as like... Guidelines 😊
@Hello Lizzie Bee thank you so much 🥺💕
I know this video is a bit old but do you have to dress up everyday to be gyaru?
The easiest way to answer this is - if you don't look gyaru then you're not gyaru.... I might do another video or blog post shout this because I feel like I need to go into more depth
hi lizzie!! may i ask if you can have black hair and still be gyaru? i’ve heard that you have to have bleached or at least dark brown hair to be considered gyaru
Yes, you can have dark hair as long as you look gyaru. You might have to work harder on your overall appearance like makeup, hair styling and clothes 😊
❤
🥰
blk ppl is there any AA hairstyles for gyaru/kogal
Bumping this! Can anyone help? 💖
i’ve seen people wear braids!! and others wear locs which is super cute!!
Omg u r sooo beautiful 😳
Awh thank you so much 🥰
do I have to be black or tan to be a gyaru?
I'm neither black nor tan and I am gyaru....
is it okay if I just do the makeup and hair?
You can do! But then I wouldn't label it as gyaru because gyaru is about the overall look
@@HelloLizzieBee okay ty!!
You're very welcome 😊
Hiii!!! I am super super superrrr late but I came here as a person who is getting into gyaru and I have a question!!! Will I get hate just cuz im white??? Ive seen lots of pins of gyaru and its only asian (mostly japanese)girls ://help plssss!!
Hey cutie! And nope, you won't get hate at all. There's a massive massive community of western gals online!
This video is old but i have a question,is it racist/asianfishing(idk do you call it that?) When ure gyaru but ure not asian?I once posted a tiktok and people started calling me racist,etc..And if so,is there a name for a non asian gyaru?😭
And how can I get over the fear,going out in public while dressed as a gyaru?(I'm European😭)
No, it isn't Asian fishing nor racist so don't worry about that
I wrote a blog post about it here!

✨💖😎
Thank you!
Hey i wrote another comment but i have a question,i've been getting a lot of mixed opinions from people online so i wanna ask you,do you think any race can be a gyaru?i know your a gyaru but im white and some people told me itsvracist:(
You can be gyaru regardless of your race 😊
Isnt gyaru kind of done now? Most of the younger japanese are more into subtle Korean ish styles
It's not as popular as it's heyday back in the 90s but that's not going to stop us from doing gyaru! 💖
ooh! i have that ma*rs jumper dress hey twin
🥰🥰🥰
Anyone from 2025?
Yes 😊
