I love how the Japanese culture are happy when people want to wear their traditions, instead of screaming cultural appropriation they see it as a form of flattery. This is a beautiful way of thinking. Copy is the highest form of flattery.
Yeah, ikr, I think it’s because they know that just because you dress up that way doesn’t make you the real deal, so it’s fine
You’ll be suprised, but that’s actually the standard outside America.
I just re read my comment and realised how rude I sounded so I wanted to clarify- by ‘real deal’ I meant as in the process to becoming a geisha or being a geisha aside from the appearance- sorry if I offended anyone or anything.
The thing to really think about though is what the person is doing with those traditions. Like here, it's wonderful with people, nationals and tourists alike, enjoying and appreciating the culture with respect. I love that - it helps build a connection and understanding with the world around you while being an awesome experience! But, there are boundaries. For example, as a Native American, it's kinda insulting to see people wear poorly done, well, mockaries of lots of different traditional chlothing, war paint, ect., particularly around Halloween. That and the war bonnets at football game day parties. It gives off the feeling, intentional or not, that my culture is somthing of a joke, not respected enough to be taken seriously. They're done, generally, without thought or respect to the culture or cultures they originate from. It quite honestly boils down to one's dedication/intent to use/wear/do something in its proper setting, having researched before to fully see what you are doing (ie, does this piece of chlothing have a major significance that I do not grasp/wish to emulate, ect.), and being mindful (if applicable) to the historical connotations of you doing whatever. It's always good to ask someone from the culture if you can, if nothing else for a source of info on whatever you may be doing.
So, can I tell my friends that so they will be ecstatic to let me copy their notes
She spoke English really well !! It’s amazing how patient and sweet she was to a foreigner even though it’s hard
Kyoto gets a lot of tourists so she probably experienced many tourists and learned English that way
Geiko and maiko are different, this is maiko makeover
Yupp
Exactly
With the upper lip painted red, it's a tourist attraction. It's a mash of maiko and geiko
@@fuzzystatic949 no no, upper lip painted is for maiko from 2nd year onward. Only the first year maiko wear lower lip only. Younger maiko also has a little bit different in term of the colour of make up. They have more red than black and change from more red to more black as they become an older maiko.
@@fuzzystatic949 for first year as maiko they can only paint their lower lip, in tradition mean they're "not mature yet", after entering the second year they need to paint on both lips
Wow. I would’ve loved to have this experience as I’m an American makeup artist. When I was visiting Japan, I walked in to a place where they sold the most beautiful kimonos I have ever seen. And the women who worked there grabbed me and just kind of started dressing me in one of their kimonos. I didn’t realize till after I was wearing it all that the whole ensemble was 10’s of thousands of dollars. I was so honored that these women wanted me to wear one of their robes, but I found out later that she said it was an honor and good luck for a geijing to wear the kimono. What a beautiful country and people.
Wow so cool I want to take my mom to Japan so much
Yea thr wigs and kimonos the Geishas have are very very expensive!
Some photo please !
Do you remember the lady's name who did your makeup? She did such a good job I want to request her when I go.
Stephanie T I would like to know too

What was the place she was at?

Lol love how they are all staring at you, especially those white tourists thinking you’re a real Geisha or Maiko. It looks so good on you, and the stylist was so cute. I visited Japan for the 1st time last spring/summer and I loved it there, except the heat. My favorite place in the world. Luckily I already knew much about Japan, Japanese culture, history as well as the language so I could fake my way through most conversations😅 Wish I could go back asap. I was in Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka. I loved Kyoto.
The older I get the more I appreciate other cultures and places! I traveled to Taiwan and Japan when I was young (like 35 years ago) and I’m mad at myself for not paying more attention and realizing what the heck I was experiencing🙄
@@silvergirl7810 But you can still go back right and experience these things again? Well after Covid 19 lol
@@kilipaki87oritahiti True, not a safe time to be traveling lmao
your comment had a hint of pejorative racism toward white people. How about someone told you there arent many black tourists because them being lazy they avoid work and cannot organize and plan travel. Even if it's true, how'd you feel about that.
If you really looked you would see a lot of people of asian descent doing the same thing.
I can imagine the anxiety of the crowds and pictures while wearing that heavy and tight kimono and the awkward okobo while trying to walk in it all
... and not being in one of the Geisha/Maiko districts...
Yes very! My husband had to help me walk lol much credit for their dedication 😩
Because I am fully ignorant about this- why was it a cause for concern in the crowds? Because you didn't want them to take pictures? Thanks for your clarification. You looked beautiful though! :)
Michelle Stewart Kyoto has a lot of tourists and the outfit will get lots of attention. Sadly not everyone is respectful and they try their best to keep you from walking away by blocking your way or grabbing you. At least from my experience. I had to stay near by. Thank you💕
@@YocelinSheller oh no 😔 Why would they grab whithout knowing you ?
My 4 year old daughter kept looking at the video and saying "pretty!" over and over.
That's so adorable
Ohhh, that's adorable 😍
oh that is innocent and precious.
that’s so nice! i hope your daughter still thinks that way in the future it’s nice to see someone so young appreciate my culture :)
Aww how adorable 🥰!
終始ニコニコで可愛すぎる。キレイすぎる！✨
you've been smiling while you are getting make up! thats makes me happy cz I though you're so excited for being Japanese maiko 🥰🤍🤍
*I'm sorry I'm not sure my English is correct!!
ちびなつ I understand. Thank you so much! I had such a great time with this experience! I love Japan so much ! 🥰
@@YocelinSheller Dear Yocelin, I did my degree in Japanese language and culture 25 years ago. Loved Japanese culture from the age of 10. I like your gentle, respectful attitude in the video. It makes it nice to watch.
外国の女性のお方様お似合いですよ、舞妓さんになってもよいがな最高ですがなバチリ決まっています、有り難うございます、舞妓さんの姿になってくださり
🌸Stunning look!🌸 I loved your color choices (fabrics, etc.). When you were choosing a hair accessory ... I kept thinking "pick THAT one" ... & you DID! Great taste girl! 🌸🌸🌸
Lisa Chafin Thank you beautiful 💕
@Julie Sprik That is the correct make up👍🏻
@Julie Sprik For the traditional Japanese taste, this part of the neck was very attractive, and not covering it gave an appearance of nudity (it was reveling and sensual). Hope I explained well, I'm not English speaker. ;-)
@@YocelinShellerprześlicznie
I'd absolutely love to try this. I'm African, so I don't know how it'll look with my skin tone😂 But I think it might be a wonderful experience.
I bet you would be beautiful 😍😍
@@amandiepannell786 🙈🙈🙈 Awww, thank you.
@@dezealakija Absolutely no problem 😁😁
It would look so gorgeous! I actually googled to see if any Black woman has done it but no luck. :(
@@persapphone Same here! I saw a black paint version though, on dark skin. Actually looked pretty good.
前言撤回！この外国人の女性
着物姿がすごく可愛いい❤️
Omg you look like a real japanese goddess!!! No wonder why everyone was looking and taking photos 😳❤️
えーーーーーーーーー！！めちゃくちゃ可愛いんだけど！！！！！美人！！！！！！似合ってます！！！！！
What an absolutely stunning transformation😍😍 the makeup artist is so precise with her application. Plus your beautiful features enhanced the look. Also it’s interesting how the artist lined your lips in a manner to make them dainty and smaller, mirroring a doll, as opposed to Western culture that values overinflated lips
kawaii!!
可愛いですね。凄く似合ってますよ！
1001 heypoo thank you soo much !
Kiwanis des. U nay !,,,,😃😁😄
I had no clue this was a thing for tourists, that would be so cool to try someday, it would be especially interesting to see how it would look on me seeing as I'm Irish and pretty much as white as white can be XD (Although chances are I couldn't afford it, but it's good to have dreams XD)
They value white skin, so you'd be fine. Now the interesting part would come with someone like myself, as I'm black, lol! (Or African American, if you wish). I'd love to try this though sans the white makeup. Still get the pink around the eyes and the porcelain lips and just do my own foundation before arriving. And my hair is already close to black so it would be okay if it were spray painted, lol! I'm probably a bit too old for the maiko look so a mature geisha would be nice.
I hope you get to try it one day. I heard it’s fun!
They have these types of " dress ups" in many many countries. One time I was dressed up as a Tribal Woman in Thailand and all the locals were laughing so hard and taking pics...I did not know which camera to look at. This one is probably expensive cause it took so much time.
@@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley great idea they should cater to all colors of the world
@@jessyncust76 I'm not going to say "should", but it would be nice, lol. I actually got a glimpse of what a black woman as a geisha would sort of look like by watching this video of a biracial woman who was born and raised in Japan. Seeing her and her black side of the family (I suppose female cousins and such) in full furisode kimono and hair pulled back and decorated was pretty amazing and just really goes to show the versitility of how it can fit with almost anyone.
正直、外国人には絶対に似合わないと思ってた。
けど、中途半端じゃなくて、真面目に着れば綺麗なんだね。
綺麗に着ていただいて、ありがとうございます。
どっち
I MNMK
綺麗ではあるけど、似合っているかと言われれば微妙じゃね？
白塗りや着物は日本人のように平面的な顔立ちじゃないと違和感がある
このお店は伝統的な舞妓の白塗りというよりは、現代化粧技術を取り入れた可愛く美しく写真を撮るためのメイクだから、外国の方にも似合いやすいです。それに合わせてメイクしてますし。
伝統的な白塗り化粧だったら、彫りの深い欧米の方にはなかなか似合わないと思います。
Omg the way she's laughing the one who is doing the make up 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I was laughing the whole time 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 and I'm still smiling typing this. I bet you did too 😂😂😂
Unique laughing😂😆😆
🖐😆😆 same here, first thing i notice lol
hahahahahahahaa....
Anyone remembered Janice from Friends?
Not everybody can carry the roll of Maiko but you do it as if you are one🙏🏻🍀
That's because she has respect for them
え、すごい似合ってて可愛い😭💕
舞妓さんのお化粧がこんなに映えるのすごい！！！
You're so stunning! I'm so excited to try this during my trip!
Yo Quincy! Thank you beautiful! It’s an experience you won’t forget 💕
@@YocelinSheller how much Was it?
@@YocelinSheller pleas find my comments. I was in Izumo in 1977 and had a wonderful experience!
@@therealbecky_ - I’m trying to find that out too!
@@BBB-rd2qi if you find out let me know
You look so pretty dear! I love the look that make up artist created for you, and she's so cheerful, i love her personality 😊
Thank you very much. You are a kind soul
Me too I love make-up artist personality. I would marry and make her happy.
こんな風に楽しんで貰えるのは日本人として嬉しいです！
とても美人で似合っています☺
oui cela fait plaisir, je pense les touristes pensent elle est japonaise
Honestly my dream is to one day go to Japan and see the beautiful traditional outfits, I’ve always wanted to wear one too, their culture and traditions are so beautiful. I have high respect for Japan and it’s people. 💜
It is an honor for her to be painted in this beautiful traditional makeup!
めっちゃ似合ってるし可愛い。
舞妓さん、芸妓さんは日本の宝これからも日本文化を継承していって欲しい
the make up artist laugh just like
"a h a h a h a h a "
omg i love it😭🤣❤️
Lol same
本当に綺麗です！！
美人な舞妓さんですね💕
Wow. You looked absolutely beautiful as a maiko! I also loved where you took a stroll during the cherry blossom season. Do you remember the date that you did the makeover? I would love to try the makeover during the peak of the cherry blossom season in year 2020. 🙂
Selby Mason sorry for the late reply! But yes it was April 8-13 around those days ☺️
@@YocelinSheller atleast you replied some of YT dont even do that
You'll have to check the season updates since it usually changes every year
わあ！外国人さんだったんですね⁈立ち振る舞いや所作がそれっぽくてわかんなかった笑
凄く似合っててとっても綺麗です⸜❤︎⸝
Wow. You look so pretty in your makeup, hair dressings and the kimono. Does it take a long time to take the make up off? How long does it take the color out of your hair too? You look like an authentic geisha. It was so cool to see people taking pictures. I would love to go to Japan just to take part in dressing up and enjoying the tradition and beauty of Japan.
着物を着こなしてる❤めっちゃ綺麗🥺❤
aww everyone was mesmerized by you 😍 i actually thought you were a japanese geisha from the thumbnail. thanks for sharing your beautiful experience with us!
I did a similar thing. During our stay in Kyoto my husband and I took a day to rent kimono and wander about a side street filled with wonderful little shops, restaurants, shrines, and lovely pocket-sized temples. We picked a rental shop that showed the most magnificent men's kimono in the window. Most are grey or black. This one was gleaming white. It was a little tricky for them to dress us. He's 6'2" and I am plus sized, but they managed. Shoes were the only really insurmountable problem, but only for me. They actually came up with a pair for his size 13 (American) feet. My wide foot was something they just couldn't manage, but I compromised and chose a pair men's that fit me quite well. I'm a history re enactor, and dressing up is something quite common for me, so the ritual of getting into kimono was no problem at all. I think they were a little surprised that the tight winding of an obi did not bother me, but when you wear 19th century corsets, the compression is actually something you come to enjoy.
The only friction was when they wanted to do my hair in Maiko style. I'm 72 years old and I thought that was silly. I chose, instead, a Japanese matron's style. My dresser told me that in the history of the shop, I was the only one who ever requested it. We all giggled like schoolgirls the whole time.
It must have been a holiday or vacation time because there were hundreds of Japanese similarly attired wandering about the tiny street. I think we posed for at least a hundred photos with all manner of friendly, happy people. Most did not speak English--or only a few words, about on a par with my limping Japanese. Nobody batted an eye at the two Americans in their midst, instead they were delighted that we wanted to partake in their lovely day. Smiles greeted us everywhere. It was one of the happiest days of my life. I can't wait to go back.
Japanese are so humble and beautiful in their heart ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Обожаю смотреть на реакции людей когда красивые девушки либо парни одеты в красивую традиционную одежду, это не передаваемые чувства. Вы очень красивая и вам идёт этот наряд и макияж.❤ 🎎❤
The make-up artist has done a very good job. 上手ですね
12:59 “Mira, mira , mira , mira.” 😂 that would be my mom
@Makrothymia look in Spanish
Makrothymia It means “Look, look , look! “ , I mean I would also look at her, but I know it must feel annoying to be stared at weirdly or amazed! But she’s beautiful yes!!
Yes “ Ay que hermoso! “Ay no mira nomas!”
The sound of her walking due to the wooden shoes sounds similar to someone munching on chips lol
Thats exactly what I thought😂😂
Sorry I can’t respond in full detail on price, location etc. to those wondering. But here is the video with full updates! Thank you guys for the support and sweet comments 💕 ruclips.net/video/VFzyTe6FPQs/видео.html
Increíble transformación!! Saludos desde México Tenochtitlan !! 👋😃👋
This is very nice I love to collaborate with you
I don't knw what u did.but it's beautiful.🙌🙌🙌
Ььььььььььььььььь.ьььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььььь
You are so lovely. If only i could meet you in person. 🤗
Very cool...Hopefully the stylist has protege to pass on her knowledge and skill to preseve this.
EDIT: You're very brave for going to the temple in public. I could tell you were nervous
so interesting to see traditionalJapanese make up ，she is so beautiful 。
Vicky Chen Thank you 💕
Какая красивая традиция Японии👘🎎
You look gorgeous!!! I definitely want to try this experience too!
Oh so they use like hair dye on blonde?! That makes so much sense.
I dressed in full Katsura wig, wedding Furisode and faked a Darari Obi knot out of a Maru obi for Halloween as well as the Geta and even made a Washi Paper Chochin lantern on a lacquered bamboo stick I cut from a local bamboo forest complete with a flickering bulb inside. I went as a Kitsune and while I got so many compliments from people from Japan on the accuracy in dressing myself, the movements were quite difficult! It was like wearing a corset and even though I know how to walk in Geta, and it was 8pm at night I felt like I was under the blazing sun so I cant even imagine being in that outfit all DAY! 😱
RESPECT to the girls and women who devote themselves and their lives to their art.
The makeup stylist did an amazing job on your makeup! Btw you look outstanding.
Your outfit and makeup looks BEAUTIFUL! Loved the hair accessories, too. The little wind chime-y piece I want for me just around the house hahaha great video
Amazing! I only meant to watch a min and I was glued the whole time!
Same!
That kimono looks amazing. I would love to have this experience.
おお～💗
綺麗～💗
本当に😃
I love the whole process. The Kanzashis were beautiful and they can be quite expensive. This would be such a wonderful experience.
I can't blame people for wanting to take your picture. You are lovely, and as Geisha such vivid colors too.
This is a maiko makeover. It's is quite authentic and suitable for younger ladies because maikos are basically young geisha apprentices :) The collar you wore is full red which is the code for "entry-level" maiko. They use collars to show the ranks. Honestly, I love the makeup they put on you, it makes your eyes look very pretty. And they made you wear the high wooden heels omg! Must be difficult to walk with those
Those shoes would kill me! Kudos to you for wearing them. You look lovely in your Western *&* Eastern garments.
The transformation of this young woman was truly amazing
You look stunning. You pulled it off really well. Thank you!
All the Japanese people are complimenting and thanking you in the comment section, they're so humble and nice! Also, very nice video. The stylists did a really good job on everything, and you look stunning!
Ya. They did a good job. Geisha girls look so very classy and pretty. Once again the eastern world strikes with supper cool culture!
I would feel like a princess in a fairytale
Sakura (Cherry blossoms) have already bloomed in Tokyo this year.
@Sakura さん Japan waits you . And your name is kawaii .
ょ
You look so lovely! 🥰 That make-up girl was also very beautiful!!🥰🥰
可愛い！！凄く素敵
You look so very pretty! I'd love to try that visiting Japan! I miss it a lot, beautiful country, people, culture... just, my absolute favorite place! ❤
That voice in the background: wait, she is not (a Maiko) 😂😂😂 Guess you cannot fool Japanese locals
とても良く似合ってて、かわいい💕こちらも幸せな気分になりました！✨
ありがとう〜🎀
a beautiful art form that should never be lost♥️
Omg there are so many layers for the waist. My back would be straight af. 😂
And she wasn't even wearing actual Maiko clothes! Apart from the outter Kimono, most of the inner layers she was wearing were props layers and only had the bits that would be on show, no thew full gowns. A real Maiko's ensemble weighs about 10lbs, they wear specially weighted Kimonos called Hikizuri and with full under garments. The idea was to wrap everthing extremely tight so no womanly curves were visible.
@@abmong The form of a willow tree, I've heard it called, lol.
i tried wearing the kimono when i was in japan & walked around for a few hours in it..my back hurt after removing it because it had been damn straight with amount the layers :,)
After wearing those layers and removing them, my back would be straighter than my sexuality
🇧🇷🇧🇷 Congratulations to this amazing japanese makeup artist for these both things: the make up and the person she is.🇧🇷🇧🇷
Wow you looked amazing with those beautiful almond eyes and perfect posture everybody thought you were Maiko. It's the first time I've seen the hair pulled over the wig and sprayed, which made it look so much more natural. I would love my daughter to have this experience and know where you had this done, they are true artists.
Very interesting! I know it’s uncomfortable. That outfit weighs a lot and the obi is meant to be like a corset. That’s why maiko-san and geiko-san take smaller steps (the kimono restricts your gait). And generally walk a bit more slowly.
no they walk faster actually. They don't walk slow. have you seen an actual maiko or geiko rush from appt to appt? they're very fast.
@@Oshidorinohinaobviously when you’re rushing from appt to appt, you walk faster. But if you’ve ever worn a kimono and know actual kimono manners, you are supposed to walk a bit slower with your thighs together and back straight. I know what I’m talking about.
She looks simply lovely.
I'm suffocating while watching..how they breathe
Astonishing!!! Absolutely suits you! You must play in Japanese movie!... 😃
That is the coolest use of colored hair spray ever!
Гример смеется, как лошадь ржет, очень неестественно
彫りの深い美人の舞妓はんやね。美を追求するのは古今東西女性の思考でしょう。
とても似合ってます。
綺麗です、地元の舞妓さんみたい！
oh, the makeup artist is soooo nice😍 And you look amazing😌
とっても綺麗です♥️♥️
I really like how the makeup and hair turned out and by the way, it’s not Geisha, your dressing as a Maiko!
This was an absolute delight to watch her change !! It was totally beautiful and I mean the entire look was just HER !!!
wow, u have the most beautiful Geisha makeover ever!!! *__*
I ❤ love the red eyeshadow!
Vrlo zanimljivo...volim Japan ,interesantna zemlja, civilizacija,hrana ...!!!
Hvala 🌹
You actually have a Maiko uniform... The difference is, Maiko have a red collar, while Geiko/Geisha have a white collar... Maiko usually have one lip painted when it's their first year, and both lips after one year, Geiko/Geisha usually are around 20 or older when they become one, Shikomi (an apprentice of the arts) are usually 70 pounds because all the ACTUAL accesories can weigh up to/more/less (than) 10kg. You do look stunning though! Geisha/Geiko also usually don't have the Kanzashi, they have more sophisticated looks (Kanzashi is the hair accessories). I am quite experienced and am trying to become a Shikomi at the moment, if you have any questions feel free to ask! ^^
So beautiful!
Gigliola Rogers Thank you 💕
Yoselin thank you for sharing such a beautiful Japanese tradition from the beginning to the end. You look stunning!!! 💝
本当に綺麗❤️
I really enjoyed that it made her happy to do this experience. I really like to see someone genuinely satisfied and happy, i don't know why. I think it's a great idea too.
Wow. This is incredibly beautiful.
How fun that must have been to dress in full regalia of a maiko! You look great and the stylist did a great job too! Thanks for sharing your special day! 😘
i wish in Chile we could found this beautiful tradition too but here we can't even found a kimono 😭
I love so much the culture of Japan, i'm learning japanese and my big dream is travel to Japan 😍
When I was in Kyoto I went to a place where you dress in kimono and they do your hair (pay extra for makeup so I didn't do it)... it wasn't a maiko style though. We (was with my cousin who also was dressed up) walked up to the near by temple... it was fun. Most of the people staring were Japanese, at least for us. Some asked to have pics with my cousin (she's tall) - they may have wanted me in as well but I think they mostly wanted her lol (we're both redheads)
I wonder if that brush would work with regular foundation? It made quick work of the application! Beautiful look!
Beautiful lovely 💖❤️❤️
Your makeup artist was so cute!
This is so beautiful omg ❤️❤️ I think it's nice Japan let's you try their culture instead of culture appropriation my dream is to go to Japan and I'm heavy on that mindset you look beautiful
I’m putting this on my bucket list, I need to experience this!
