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

Hairstyle Name: Ume-ware (梅割れ) lit. “Broken Plum”

    This hairstyle is a variation of the ichogaeshi style and was worn only by girls and young women during the Meiji period. It appears that the youngest girls with long enough hair wore momoware, then transitioned to ume-ware or toujin-mage, and then finally moved on to the ichogaeshi hairstyle. Ume-ware may have been originally known as Ume-musubi (梅結び).
