I've always found the style a little...strange. If it was just a light tan, dyed hair, and a 'cutsy' look, I wouldn't mind it so much, but...the EXTREMELY dark tans, the excessive amounts of skin, and the obsession with materialism...it's just sort of weird. I don't want to automatically say 'they're stupid!!' just because of what they wear, but it seems like to be...just...weird.

I don't much like the ganguro look it's too much what people want to look like here. If I were Japanese and had black hair I wouldn't come anywhere near it with dye, the black hair is just so awesome.
However I do like the yamanba look more, it goes to a more extreme length and isn't just about a Cali look. It's more of a "standing out" version of ganguro.
I don't think I would do the style because I take pride in my porcelain skin, although my hair is near white....I just like the albino look I guess.

definately not the style I like. I personally have always thought that too dark a tan can look very bad especially with blonde hair. I've always felt this way. Mind you many of my friends feel differently, many of them think it looks good (they are all blondes and it doesn't look good). There is one girl I know who fits the style perfectly, I don't think she knows about it though.

I don't think they're very visually pleasing.
I like pale skin.
Not so much for the tan thing... sweatdrop
That's it. cool

Well I think some of the people with the lighter skin on the pictures on that site didn't look so bad. Well it doesn't look like something I'd try but I guess some can do it tastefully. I'm more of a pale skin person myself ^^

My roommate can screaming from her desk the other night that there was Ganguro on TV. I ran to look-- and we died laughing. There was a girl on the American Idol tryouts who was trying to be Christina Aguilera. Except that she'd failed miserably in the attempt.
Her face was bronzed bright and nasty orange (not the rest, just her face), with shiny makeup and darkdarkdark eyeliner. Her hair had been bleached so pale as to look like it would crackle if touched, and her clothes were so flashy that, with the proper skirt, she probably could have been mistaken for a hooker.
Which, well, is how I feel about most Ganguro girls. They generally look like they'd love to be shoved onto a street corner with the way they crow and squeal and strut in their neon clothes and garish face-paint-make-up...

sailornicole10 I think ganguro girls are the cutest heart I did my makeup like a ganguro girl once That's quite cute; it's a very basic ganguro gyaru look, not overdone at all. I went manba for Halloween of 2005.  And just for the Hell of it, here are the boots I wore to complete the outfit.  It was fun; I can't tell you how many weird stares I got.

Ganguro fashion... ugh.. poor attempt to look "pretty" and "fashionable". Poor poor attempt. The girls look absolutely terrible. They look like burnt Barbie dolls.
I am sorry for offending those who do support ganguro fashion here, but I must speak out. domokun

I really must say that it looks like fun to do... not so fun to look at but it's like a trainwreck, can't stop staring! Too tan really bothers me a great deal though. Tanning involves a really fine line between enough and too much.

I personally find Ganguro girls to be absolutely terrifying.

Oh my...I looked at the picstures and I must say, some of them are slightly scary looking. Iteresting, but scary. They look like the preppy kids at my school in the summer time.

hmmm... I kind of like it!~ However when there is toooo much contrast between there make-up and skin -- then it's just creepy i.e. - Skin cancer o.0; However ^^ they aren't all that scary - some I think are actually pretty cute - i.e. -- I think it depends on the individual ganguro... I'm to pastey for the ganguro look - but I honestly don't think I'd like looking like one either....

I think the gal style, when done well, is rather pretty, but it is not something I would wear. Most ganguro look nice, and the overall positive "having fun" additude of the subculture is really refreshing.
Yamanba are another thing then. It just looks bad most of the time. Yamanba (it means mountain witch, lol!) is the ganguro style totally overdone. Pukupuku's first pic is a very goos example of a yamanba.
Yamanba is the style totally overdone, ganguro is somewhere in the middle, and the most casual version and the most preppy looking is gal.
