Oh my Go...sh, hmm I wish that style won't leave japan (I pray to God it won't).

*laughs* They make fun of Ganguro girls in Super Gals. They're a lot less scary in anime form!

Ah, Japanese extreme fashion, definitely lotsa fun seeing people do that! hehe I don't mind the crazy hairdo, fashion and makeup but I don't like the skin tanning. 0.o

All the people who have been tanned all their life end up in the resident dermatology clinic with skin like leather, and pre-malignant lesions all over their arms and legs that I have to burn off with liquid nitrogen (or worse, they wind up in the general surgery clinic with melanoma). Don't do it.

Listen to teh d0ctor...o_O *nods grimly*

Anyway...the makeup is sortakinda cute, but I think that first girl was prettier before.

No offense to Volt, but I think they're rather hideous. Partly from the make-up, partly from the outlandish expressions on their faces.

Actaully, I've seen quite a few people in the US that look like that... ^^;;;

Hmm... There was a really funny doonsebury comic a few years back about tanning... It's called "The tanning wheel" and it basically said "Tan - OUT! Green and sickly - IN!"

I honestly don't know why people associate being tan with being strong, healthy, virile, etc... My mom gets upset when I don't "get enough sun" Bah...

(accepts eyedrops) Thaaank you...(looks again) AHHH!! I need more!

Postby **DrNic** » Wed Mar 03, 2004 1:11 pm

I admire their guts at looking different. I like being different. I'm a grunge kid at school, have long hair, wear baggy jeans and like heavy rock so I know what its like to look different. But...that really does look wierd...

Postby **Zilch** » Wed Mar 03, 2004 1:14 pm

I'm with you, DrNic, grunge all the way...but this...is taking different to a new meaning!

Postby **MasterDias** » Wed Mar 03, 2004 1:15 pm

I fail to find the looks of the 'Ganguro' girls very appealing.

Postby **RoyalWing** » Wed Mar 03, 2004 1:19 pm

oh!! they make fun of them in GALS! (they are drawn like fish!) XD

but when you tan alot when you're older your skin will be really wrinkly and look like prune... (at least that's what i've heard.)

i don't think they're hideous... actually i think they are a bit cute?! it looks funny (as in humourous) and i like it. it looks fun~ though i'm not sure if i would try it. if i did, it wouldn't be all the time... maybe once or twice in my lifetime... :lol:

p.s. there's also ganjiro, which are the opposite, and do everything to maintain an extreme paleness. i'm not sure if they put on really dark make-up however. ^v^

It looks kind of like a reverse Goth or something *l* Goths are like crows and dark things.... Ganguros are like bubbles and sunshine.

Postby **DrNic** » Wed Mar 03, 2004 2:27 pm

Goths are like crows and dark things....

And whats wrong with being dark? (p.s. I'm not a goth, just dress dark

)

Postby **Psycho Ann** » Wed Mar 03, 2004 4:51 pm

I dress dark too, but far from being a goth XD

There's a load of ganguro girls in anime/manga like in Peach Girl and even Bremen--wait... that's a guy. Nevermind.

I dress in collared golf shirts and khakis or blue jeans, when I can help it. Goes with the fact that I'm a hide-bound social and political conservative, I suppose. That, and black doesn't look very good on me. I'm thin enough as it is, I don't need people thinking I'm a literal pole with feet.
