Visual Kei J-rock hair tutorial! Pinky Violence Japanese bad girl 1970s b-movies gallery tour.

** La Carmina's new J-POP CULTURE BOOKS (Crazy Wacky Theme Restaurants: Tokyo and Cute Yummy Time) are now in major bookstores and online! Visit http://www.lacarmina.com/books.php for more information and to order.***

Goth lifestyle + Harajuku fashion blogger, La Carmina (http://www.lacarmina.com) visited Hyaena Gallery in Burbank, California with the Adventure Team. The gallery had exhibited a Vampire portrait of Carmina by Los Angeles artist Dienzo. http://www.lacarmina.com/blog/2009/05/vampire-painting-of-la-carmina-dienzo-s...

Gallery owner Bill Shafer gives her a tour of the Pinky Violence exhibit: posters from 1970s Japanese bad girl b-movies. She and the Visual Kei boys are wowed by the morbid curiosities for sale, including a 15th century Albrecht Durer engraving, paintings by serial killers, and Charlie Manson's autograph on a page of Exodus.

If you're in LA, you've got to stop by this little art shop of horrors! For more info about Hyaena Gallery, visit http://www.hyaenagallery.com

Well, "jrock hair" to me could be best summed up by the X-Japan-look. Sorry for knocking on white guys trying to pull off the '"visual kei thing, but it just looks like an emo-do in overdrive to me. じゃ、年賀状を書き続こう！
