Hello!~

I'm entirely new to this forum, and to the concept of Gyaru in general. If anybody could give me a general summary of what it's all about and how I can get myself started, that'd be faaaabulous! Thanks!!

welcome sydney! i am kiri suika, and i am in a thing called a nagosa.
a gyarusa means a "circle" of gals or gyarus. a nagosa is like a "comfy"
gal circle. the nagosa i am in is called dreemey~ i am 16 and i live in
the US, how about you? my fav gyaru style is banba! gyaru basically
means fashionable gal. mostly seen in shibuya in tokyo, japan. but there
are LOTS of diffrent types of gals/gyarus. banba is a lighter version of
the exotic style manba. manba is alot of panda make and a really fun
outfit (generally ^^. above all be SURE not to get the harajuku street
street styles mixed up with the shibuya styles! ^-^ feel free to ask any
questions! and gals please don't hesitate to tell me i have given any wrong
information! it is always great to have new gals on the site! here is a link
that might help you understand the different gyaru looks! good luck! : D
