These three hairstyles are the mainstream options to pair with a white kimono*

Each hairstyle is so beautiful that it’s hard to decide on the vibe you want...!

Did you know there are various designs of Wata-boushi?

Among the various arrangements, the most popular is definitely "Wata-boushi"♡

The large round Wata-boushi is a unique bridal garment in Japan and brings out a woman's grace...♩

By the way, did you know that this pure white large Wata-boushi comes in several designs?

Many brides thought it was just white, but when the day came, they were given options and ended up confused (or they envisioned other designs that weren't available).

This time, we're going to introduce the designs of Wata-boushi!

Wata-boushi Design ① Pure White

First, let’s introduce the classic pure white Wata-boushi.

The pure white Wata-boushi representing the bride's "purity" is stunningly beautiful and elegant enough to captivate anyone who sees it.*

There are also slight differences in the shape around the face, with two patterns: one that is mountain-like and another that has a round curve.

Let’s try to see which shape suits you better♩

Wata-boushi Design ② Akafuki

Next, we introduce "Akafuki," which features a red line.

The point of the Akafuki Wata-boushi is that it adds definition to the pure white kimono. It's popular to coordinate red with items like a date collar, haneri, or hanakire.

Just adding a red line to the pure white kimono changes the impression quite dramatically!*

Wata-boushi Design ③ Red Underside

Unlike Akafuki, where the line is present, there are also Wata-boushi designs with the entire underside painted red.*

Because the area of red is larger than that of Akafuki, it creates a more glamorous atmosphere, which is charming♡

Wata-boushi Design ④ Organza

Finally, let’s introduce the very rare Organza Wata-boushi.*

As the name suggests, this Wata-boushi uses organza, characterized by its soft and fluffy ambiance♡

It allows beautifully styled hair and facial features to be seen through, making it the newest trend in Wata-boushi♩

What shape should your Wata-boushi be?

We have introduced the designs of Wata-boushi that go with the white kimono.*

From pure white to Akafuki and organza, there are several patterns available.*

Each design may also feature embroidery, making choosing which combinations to use one of the fun parts of coordinating a traditional outfit♡

Wata-boushi is a special piece that can only be paired with a white kimono. On the occasion of wearing a once-in-a-lifetime white kimono, why not try wearing a Wata-boushi?
