there not real maiko you can tell beause their obi knot is just a clip on, their also wearing the wrong hair ornaments for the season, you can see the the area where the wig line and also the wig is too big oh and the boxes they use to hold their things in are empty and they are having trouble with their okobo
-
They are Geisha in training . These are Junior maiko which are in performance makeup so they can greet the public. They are usually out now during the day for the tourist trade because they are a dying culture, and they are trying to preserve it by making it more well known.
-
Having a purse does not mean that they are tourists.
And some don't go to school during the daytime because some have customers.
My friend is a Geiko in Kyoto.

Everything just screams maiko henshin >___>''

@judgesdaughter You are wrong on th at real maiko must use theyre hair to tie up the hairstyle, but they ahve hair extansion in it as for that they dont have neough hair on theyre own to ahve the eloborate and huge hairstyle( its 10 cm tall) but geiko and geisha (Tokyo) wears a shimada wig.
-
@SilverGunZoO Its just that when people see tourist that dress up as maiko or geiko they callt hem either geisha girls (refers to that they are not real) or henshin dress ups/henshin maiko/geiko etc.....
In Tokyo you are correct they are called geisha and hangyoku (apprentices) and geiko and maiko in Kyoto,
-
Those maikos are tourists!
Fake maikos of tourists like them walk slowly and do not to decline stopping for photographers.
-

Make up, Obi, walking, purse..They are tourists. Real Maiko(15~20 yrs old) and Geiko ("Geisha" is only in Tokyo) go to school for lessons in the daytime without makeup. After that they make up & wear gorgeous Kimono etc and walk quickly away for work at night.

They are tourists. Geisha and Maiko usually only walk alone, and they seem to be having trouble with their geta.
And they are stopping for pictures with a cameraman in tow.
