WOOP WOOP!! First blog after my mini break!! Are you excited? Because I know I am~!
So, during the last round of voting, topic option 3 blew the others out of the water! Option 3 must be the lucky number; this is the second time it's gotten such overwhelming votes! Hehe, anyway...
Usually, I try to have an evidence-based approach for my blogs. I am an academic at heart, after all! But for this one, I think this is going to be more of an opinion piece. When it comes to who can and can't wear certain styles, theres bound to be people who disagree with me, and that's totally fine! Where's the fun in everyone having the same opinion? But when it comes to the styles I want to touch on in particular, I think we find ourselves in a grey area.
Crash Course: Gyaruo 101
Hi everyone~! Welcome back~!
Recently, I've been getting a lot of interest in the male/masculine counterpart to Gyaru: Gyaruo!
Unlike Gyaru, the information on Gyaruo can be hard to come by, especially on the English-speaking side of the internet. But never fear! I've worked my magic (i.e., did a stupid amount of research) and have compiled a quick crash course for all of you interested in Gyaruo!

The Importance of Being Realistic: The Dark Side of Gyaru
Welcome, welcome~! It's time for another Gyaru blog~!
I'm so sorry for the delay!! I know I planned to post this yesterday, but I got sidetracked... Anyway! A couple days ago, I posted a bulletin asking for everyone to vote on what the next blog topic should be, and the dark side of Gyaru blew the rest of the options out of the water!! I had a feeling that would be the case, hehe...
Thank you to everyone who participated! If everyone likes, I can start doing a weekly vote for which topic I write about? Please let me know!

Unpopular Opinions: Gyaru Edition
Hello~! It's me again~
So far, the Gyaru blogs I've been posting have been educational, and that doesn't leave a lot of room for my own personal opinions... And as someone with a ton of opinions, I can only hold off on sharing them for so long! So, that's what this blog is going to be about!
Since this is an unpopular opinions blog, this has the potential to ruffle some feathers... But I dont mind! Gyaru is about being yourself, so who cares if I don't have the same opinions as everyone else? So long as the opinion is antithetical to Gyaru as a whole, I think it's fair game!

Gyaru Terms & Vocab!
Welcome back~! And sorry for the wait... Life has been busy since I'm getting ready to move, but I finally have some free time!
So it's time for another Gyaru blog!
If you remember the ending of my substyles blog, then you may remember that I mentioned I used quite a bit of Gyaru-specific words and wanted to make a blog about what it all means! So that's exactly what I'm doing!
The Different Substyles of Gyaru!
Behold! The long-awaited substyles blog!
If you thought my history of Gyaru blog was long, then this one is going to be actually insane. There are so many ways to be a Gyaru, and it can be difficult to find one that you feel really represents you! You're in luck, though, because this blog is going to give in-depth descriptions of each substyle!
