  • @umitama666 Yes youre right, thanks for correcting me. :):)

  • @kirstyana 'gei' means art and 'sha' means person, so 'geisha' means arts person or artist :D

  • to make shore that it is tight enough to their body, and that it looks nice and are stright... Undre the obi is something called obi ita, a hard surface that makes shore the obi is stright and have not rinkles on it.

  • A geisha these days are the same as for hundreds of years, they are artist. Gei mean artist and sha means woman, so artistick woman. They are specalist in the art of singing dancing conversation, playing japanse instruments, caligraphy flower araigment, and many other stuff, they wear eleboral kimonos calles hikizuri or susohiki, means trail the skirt, and have heavy white makeup in theire faces, they sell the art not their body, and they are soo good at selling the art.

  • @karyukai93

  • does anyone know why they always clap on their obi when they got it tied?

  • cool......
