I was going to say that this was the redneck way of tying an obi because it lacks all grace, but that wouldn't be right because a redneck would at least cinch it down with a purpose.
i think its done fine, it may be messy for the bow it must have been done several times because she did it relatively fast. it was simple and easy to see and understand. it did seem kind of rushed but it was still well thought out enough for us to understand. if you don't appreciate it perhaps you should look onto another video. hate comments are appreciated for anything. it may have been sloppy but theres no need to insult others about it
@SunaKokaru Maybe it was done quickly to emphasize the ease of tying the obi, but it was VERY sloppy, and not just the obi but the fold of the kimono at the back was also very, very badly done. No point in showing how to do something if it is not done properly.
@Haldir1970 i found it very useful on the contary because i could see how easy it was to screw up but also how simple it would be to fix it with a little extra time. it was done poorly but for a beginner its just enough, although i do enjoy this debate not going to lie, its nice to be able to speak an opinion honestly without disrespect so thank you for taking it seriously ^^ i appreciate it
@liv119 although yes, it was quickly done and didnt look like the neatest obi knot ever, it is a recognised obi musubi (knot) the part hanging out is actually quite fashionable
Neat. ^_^ This is pretty helpful. She does it very fast and I think she might have been rushed... but it was very good at showing the basics of how to tie an obi. I'm not surprised that she knew how to do it since she IS Japanese, but that's just another point for the video. Thanks for sharing!
I'm not bragging or anything, but it is sloppy. I'm not sure if it's sloppy in purpose... But I take lessons for kimono wearing at school, and believe me, if my teacher sees that, she's going berserk.
@yoruichisan19 Not all schools in Japan teach that, it just happens that my high school has a class for Japanese dancing (Nihon Buyou), and we had to learn how to wear a kimono, in class as well.. But even if you google 'obi', you'll notice the difference! :)
I'll say that, yes, it looks messy. but this is one of the best videos I've seen where you can clearly see what is being done. I've seen lots of videos where the finished bow is beautiful, but I couldn't follow how it was done (because it wasn't shown clearly.)
why, im a guy i dont need to know how to tie an obi but i know that this particular obi is a disgrace to the japanese culture. yes ill admit that my comment was a bit out of line but calling me disgusting doesnt dismiss the fact that that abomination of a beautiful art was video taped and posted. and clearly by all of the other comments posted i was not the only one to think it was poorly executed. so you might want to revise your statement because in the end even though i was a jerk im right.
Technically it is correct, it's just sloppily done; it's lopsided, uneven and looks like she was very haphazard about it. You may say that she can do it better, but I'm of the opinion that if you're going to be posting an educational video you want to do your best so that you set the best example.
thank you... you dont want the blind leading the blind... therefore i wouldnt want a sloopy teacher telling me im doing it wrong if shes doing it wrong too...
That was really messy. Also I've seen most people loop the obi around the bow twice before just sticking the rest in. But good thing is it got the point across.
And I suppose you guys are professional Obi tiers? I really think you guys should keep your comments to yourselves, unless they're constructive because you usually have to go to school in Japan to learn how to tie an appropriate obi, and the Sensei gives the main idea. The point is to keep the bow from wrinkling when you turn it around, and I think you watched this because you needed to learn how in the first place. Don't say they're not doing it right when you don't even know how to do it.
HAHAHAHAHA!!! KAWAII!!! its not done properly, but the main thing is that u get the main stable idea on how to tie it, just have to make the boy sitting properly nee :)
That is a Kimono. It's a festive Kimono for the obon festival, you can tell because of the neck, and the white under layer peeking through. I own sever Yukatas, so I can tell the difference.
I have to admit, it`s not her best, but yet it`s not her worst. You shouldn`t say anything either unless you can record yourself doing one better than that. I mean, seriously. Yeah, Sensei did it better when it was for performances, but at least she`s able to do it probably better than you. So I`m going to wait for you to post a video response proving me wrong.
I live in Japan and have been taught by professionals how to tie an obi (several differnt ones.) I don't have a good camera to record myself doing it so unfortunately at the time I can't post a better one. I just think that people should know if they want to learn how to properly tie the obi, this isn't the best video to watch. So excuse me for using my right of free speach to make a comment.

It does not matter if the bow is sloppy or not. What truely matters is if the woman wearing the kimono if confident in herself.
