like I said I hope that this program is open when I'm old enough to apply because it seems like an awesome experience. does it seem like it will be around in 6 or 7 years? oh yeah, my hair is really long especially for dudes, do you think that would be ok?

hair length shouldn't be a problem

I've asked another American staying in Japan recently but she couldn't answer. Do you know any difficulties faced with getting replacement contacts in Japan? I'm sure I could easily bring enough for a year, but I'm still wondering incase I ended up being there for years.

It's always a good idea to keep a bank account/visa account active/open in the US, in case you need to buy things online and have then shipped to Japan, or have a family member/friend ship stuff to you.
I don't wear glasses/contacts, so I can't answer your question. I think KansaiPJ (another J vlogger) wears glasses, so you might ask him.

Hello!
I have a question about hair! I'm a girl, so I like dying my hair. No funky colors, it always stays rather normal. I really like having them platinum blonde though, so it might stand out a bit in japan. But I heard even then, hair dying in schools is prohibited, is it true? Also, I have a tongue peircing, we can't see it if I'm talking, but if I laugh or eat it might be visible, would that also be a problem?
Thanks and keep up the good videos!
=)

Your hair can be any color you like - but I would think that all the same color is a good choice. (as opposed to half pink and half blue)
My Jr High kids are not allowed to dye their hair, wear makeup or jewelry, etc. But I think they relax that in HS.
Not sure about the tongue piercing - for sure no Japanese teacher would have one. Can you take it out while at work?

Thanks for your reply!
I'll try to refrain dying my hair half pink and half blue. ; )
For the peircing, of course I can take it out, I was just wondering.
Thanks again for your very useful videos!

Do you often see people with lip piercings in japan? Do you think it would be totally unacceptable to wear it in school? Probably, right? Also, what about a tattoo on my neck? You usually can't see it because of my hair, but if it gets seen somehow, will I get in trouble?

lip piercing not a good idea for school. I don't really know about the tattoo - I've known JETs that have them in visible places and they seem fine. The more discrete you can be about it, the better.

I don't think they'll have many clothes that will fit me considering I'm 6'4". So I'll probably have to order them from JC Penny as well.
