Japanese Culture

I read before that when Japanese women may cut off their hair for some closure after something bad happens or the like. What’s the name of it?

Well a lot of women do that when they want closure, its not just Japanese women. Cutting the hair is symbolizing letting go. In a lot of Asian movies a woman will be so distraught she will cut off her hair. It just shows that you are moving on. I cut my hair when I broke up with my boyfriend to show that I wanted to be free of the negative feelings. It made me feel a lot better (I am not Japanese).

The only custom that has a cutting of the hair is in Sumo. So just like any other woman, she cuts her hair to show that she is moving on, heartbroken, wants a change. Before women didn’t cut their hair they left it long.

But if people are Buddhist and they enter the monastery men and women will shave off their hair to symbolize that they are detaching from the world.

Hope this helps.

I love japanese woman. The sound of a japanese accent. The sound of japanese in general. I have tried to learn the language many times but I just dont use it enough to keep it. I like in northern Cali and I would love to meet a japanese woman but my area doesnt seem to have many around. I was wondering if people knew of any area that had alot of japanese women walking about.

2 Go to Japanese grocery stores and wait a chance. Im sure Japanese women would be happy to speak to you if you ask how to cook tofu or miso.

3 Go to Japanese restaurants and become a regular customer. Ask the Japanese owner of the restaurant to arrange meeting Japanese girls.
