Kepatsu, a Chinese-inspired Style

During the early 7th century, Japanese noble women wore their hair very high and boxy at the front, with a sickle-shaped ponytail at the back, sometimes called "hair bound with a red string."

This hairstyle, known as kepatsu, was inspired by Chinese fashions of the era. The illustration to the left depicts this style and is from a wall mural in the Takamatsu Zuka Kofun—or Tall Pine Ancient Burial Mound—in Asuka, Japan.

Shimada Mage: Tied-back Hair with a Comb on Top

During the Tokugawa Shogunate or Edo Period from 1603 to 1868, Japanese women began to wear their hair in much more elaborate fashions. They pulled their waxed tresses back into a variety of different kinds of buns, decorated with combs, hair sticks, ribbons and even flowers.

This particular version of the style, called the shimada mage, is relatively simple compared with those that came later.This style, mostly seen from 1650 to 1780, simply looped the long hair in the back and slicked it back in the front slicked with wax, with a comb inserted into the top as a finishing touch.

Vertical Mage: Hair Piled on Top, with a Comb

The Edo Period was "the golden era" of Japanese women's hairstyles. All kinds of different mages, or buns, became fashionable during an explosion of hairstyling creativity.

This elegant hairstyle from the 1790s features a high-piled mage, or bun, on the top of the head, secured with a front comb and several hair-sticks.

A variation on its predecessor the shimada mage, the vertical mage perfected the form, making it easier to style and maintain for these fanciful ladies of the Imperial court.

Yoko-hyogo: Mountains of Hair with Wings

For special occasions, late Edo-era Japanese courtesans would pull out all the stops, styling their hair up and cascading it over all types of ornamentation and painting their faces eloquently to match.

The style depicted here is called the yoko-hyogo wherein a huge volume of hair is piled on top, ornamented with combs, sticks, and ribbons and the sides are waxed into spreading wings. Note that the hair is also shaved back at the temples and forehead, forming a widow's peak.

If a female was seen out wearing one of these, it was known that she was attending a very important engagement.

Euros never really got into hairkino, it's hard to make straight hair form into elaborate shapes without lots of products (oils, special fats, etc.), so only a few aristocrats here and there got up to cuhrayzee styles.
