PostSubject: Yanki, Yamanba, Tsuyome, other styles   Sat Nov 08, 2008 8:44 pm

Yanki:
The yanki style is typically combat or stiletto boots, loose pants, and a long jacket often a military one. This style can often can be confused with miruteri (milatary style) which was big during the fall of 05'.

Yamanba:
The early form of Manba, characterized by over the top make-up and stickers of popular Disney characters or cartoons as well as jewels or stick-on earrings. The clothing style is heavy "I just got back from Hawaii" complete with lei's on wrists, necks, ankles and even in hair. Thick Ganguro style "panda" make-up, and usually orange, hot pink, teal blue, blue or bleached white hair. The usual hairstyle is long with many multi-colored extensions with the common long on bottom short on top hairstyle that is all too frequent in Japan.

Tsuyome:
This is very similar to banba, the main difference being that tsuyome has lighter makeup than banba.
The term 'tsuyome' can be applied to many things, but in this context tends to mean a lighter version of banba.
There are no set rules to this style, it's very general and it can be difficult to tell whether someone is tsuyome or banba. However, tsuyome will always have light pink lip colour at the most, never the block white that some banba wear.
One way to spot tsuyome style is to look at what the person is wearing. Tsuyome should include a little 'wild' clothing/accessories, such as a ripped tee, leather fingerless gloves, headband/wrap, skull belt buckle, graffiti print, etc. There is usually some hint of hip hop, rock and/or biker to tsuyome. Although tsuyome is an incredibly vague term, so gals can really interpret it in a lot of ways, there is a general feeling of a strong/fierce gal image.
