What is gyaru? Discover the history of this beautiful subculture <33

Hi, I'm Belphy! This is my first informational blog. Today we'll talk about gyaru. If you're a beginner gyaru and interested in this beautiful subculture, you've come to the right place!  

                

Have you ever wondered where gyaru originated? This beautiful subculture originated in Japan in the 1990s, making a huge impact in the 2000s.
The idea was to break with Japanese beauty standards and the image of the "shy, submissive girl," drawing inspiration from the rebellious American girls of that era. They sported tanned skin, shorts, flared pants, tops, long nails, purses, and visibly exaggerated makeup, causing a huge impact around the world!

Although this movement At first it wasn't easy, society was so cruel to them that they even compared them to night companions and they weren't respected, but little by little well-known agencies and people interested in this helped them spread the message they wanted to transmit, becoming a great empire of women joining this fight, although now it is not so visible.

Although this movement was a struggle for Japanese girls to be themselves, other foreign countries also joined this fight, calling themselves "Gaijin Gyaru" in order to differentiate themselves from Asian girls, although the struggle remained the same: To be able to be free being themselves.

Remember: Gyaru is not just exaggerated and extravagant makeup, it is more than that, it is a group of women who reveal themselves to society to be seen, a continuous struggle to be themselves without being judged and without being carried away by society's standards.
