Hime Cut Guide: Creating the Japanese Cut

HIME CUT is a traditional Japanese cut characterized by straight side locks, usually chin-length, and a straight fringe. The rest of the hair is typically kept long and straightened. This cut can suit any face shape by adjusting the length of the side locks. In other words, by cutting them to different lengths, the hairstyle can be adapted to suit individual facial features. In the video, the model has an oval face shape, which any haircut would suit. Additionally, when the hair is gathered in a ponytail, the Hime Haircut looks like a bob.
In Japanese, "hime" means "princess". During the Heian period, women turning 16 received this haircut in a "binsogi" ceremony, symbolizing coming of age. This hairstyle became popular again in Japan in the 1970s when singer Megumi Asaoka made it her signature style.
A key aspect of the hime cut is always the presence of a noticeable gap between the side locks and the rest of the hair.

Love it! Reminds me of the mid 60’s when I cut my own fringe and sides to copy Cher….
Took forever to grow it all out. 😂

Я что-то херею с замороженных русских комментариев.
Стрижка круть! На данный тип лица легло как масло на хлеб. Доработка добавила икорки.
Супер! Буду выдвигать в тренды эту стрижку. Как всегда, спасибо, Макс

when can we expect your beginners course as a gift?

[@luciaayaso2260]

This is so 😎 cool. I would have done this in high school. I'm currently trying to grow out all .y layers to donate a thick ponytail to cancer patients. I'm hoping to lob off 12 inches when it's long enough.

Merry Christmas Lucia!

[@vivek3964]

Nice your idea is good are you on Instagram

[@neverblued]

Спасибо, познавательно. Хотя и спорно по стилистике: у этой модели чёлка акцентирует нос, а боковые пряди - челюсть.
