Japanese Hairstyles: Historical Overview Part 02: Women’s Hairstyles of the Edo Period, Part 03

Hairstyle Name: Hangyoku no Momoware (半玉の桃割れ) lit. “Apprentice Geisha’s Broken Peach”

   This hairstyle is a variation of the ichogaeshi style and was worn only by girls and young women during the Meiji and Taisho periods. This version would have been worn by apprentice geisha of Tokyo known as hangyoku. The bin, tabo and type of kanzashi all differ from the Kyoto-style maiko.
