  • Well although some of your previous comments recieved were rude and unecessary, I for one think you did a fantastic job... I'm going to an anime convention in June and can't decide if putting on the maiko make-up would kill my kimono look? What's your opinion? Second, yes... some maiko do wear blue eyeshadow.. I know that's what I've used in previous attempts at geisha. :) Great job! ^_^ I'd love your opinion on a yay or nay to the make-up for the convention!

  • wow, i'd say go for it!! (or ganbareh :D)

    thanks for the encouragement, i really needed it.

  • I am actual geisha and this girl is pretty accurate on her descriptions.But as maiko our eyes are only painted red on the top and corners of our eyelids.Geisha can paint our own necks. There is a trick involved.But I like that she tried.

  • lol, thank you!

    i know geisha can paint their own necks; this is a how-to video for those who want to do makeup for parties or costumes, not for real geisha, of course! so i think a person who had never done geisha makeup before might want to get some help with doing the back of her neck, right?

  • There IS a way for maiko to paint their own necks, watch the video "Maiko or geisha putting on face make-up in Kyoto." Should be listed in the related vids.

    Maiko don't wear black eyeshadow, they wear pink eyeshadow. They also paint their eyebrows in a corresponding color.

  • if i may refer you to my comment on shishie4811's comment... both of you said essentially the same thing.

  • you need a camera with better quality and put your face right front on the camera

  • u need too be more white.. ur eyes need to be mor dramatic.. ur eye brows need too be thinner... and u r not supposed to put brown lipstick on or all over ur top lip... and ur side lip should be the exact same color as ur pure white face.... not to be a bitch but if ur going to do it studie it more... that was a waste of 13 min and 6 seconds...

  • I bloody love you hun.

    Hope we can become friends one day. It took me months to get my basic clown white face to a t.

    You are gorgeous and striking.

  • Ohhh, you look so pretty! I love your eyes, but do you think I could get the pale stuff at iParty? I'm thinking so, but I wanted a second opinion.

    I have a party coming up in 3 days and a bright blue and green dress. Any suggestions?

  • You are wonderful in your video, dont let the haters get you down

  • You act like you know how to do it by the book wheres your video on you doing it the right way?? you have video of others doing it in one style that also has flaws so where is your "correct by the book video???

  • As a taikomochi student your really off base to be like this to her. The movie is a movie it adds dramatic effect to the life that a geisha lives, I am taikomochi a male counterpart to the female. Her looks is very pleasing and very well done. such disrespect of a woman is not tolerated.

  • I love sallys eyeshadow.. it works so well. :]

  • you're so pleasant and nice:)

  • good try but it is far from a geisha
