The hair is real right? :0 Cool look, it’s alotta different from what we’ve been seeing on the guys lately. Not to sure about the eyeliner/shadow mind. :)

@Mel: I rarely see punk boys on the streets so I’m so happy to see these photos. Great find, Kjeld. I’m not too sure but his hair looks real. Kjeld will be able to answer to your question when he’s back from his work:)

@Meg: His name sounds very unfamiliar, so it might be a Korean name or something:) Wow, syringle! It’s such a unique idea and it’s defintiely working out.

In the syringe shot I though ‘‘he looks korean’‘ and then I saw your comment KD n_n
First time a see a syringe as an accesorie… reaaally cool ;) His pants are kinda chic I like them.

@Kjeld Duits: Don’t get me wrong. I adore Japanese street style! I wouldn’t be commenting on this website if I wouldn’t like it. :D I’m afraid we went a bit too deep into this conversation about ideology/outfit/social statements, don’t you think? For example, I wasn’t trying to involve politics at all. I don’t like politics. “Ideology” or “social statement”, in my dictionary they haven’t really got connections with politics. They are just tools of my self-realisation.

What I wrote in my first comment about Bajowoo, I wasn’t trying to generalize and extend my opinion to ALL the Japanese people. I was just trying to explain that for me something was missing from Bajowoo (the first person out of all the others whos photos I have seen on this website) what I could find in almost all the other people so far. These clothes suit his body, even the eye make-up suits his eyes and the hair his face, but I don’t feel the connection between his inside and outside. How can I see it on the photos? No idea. I just got this feeling when I was looking at them. This has nothing to do with strong beliefs about a certain thing, just believe in yourself and the clothes you wear and it will shine through. You can wear super cool clothes, but if you aren’t a cool person, it will be visible (at least to some). Or you can wear loli one day, punk the other day, business look the third they if you can pull all those looks off, then no one will say you aren’t true to your beliefs. They just going to say you are versatile and interesting. But this is not just about Bajowoo anymore. And I might be wrong about everything what I wrote. Although I believe in every single word. :) I suggest not to get more entangled in this conversation about ideologies and such. I think it’s too complicated and cannot be discussed in writing very well. This needs real conversation. ;)

I’m looking forward to incorporate some more 和(wa) into my life after I have been living for some years in Japan. I’m sure it will change me in certain ways. I’ll try to be as open as possible and embrace whatever (good) comes my way. :)

@Kjeld Duits: Yes, indeed. I feel I’ve learnt from it too. Thank you. ^^ In fact if one is careful, than (s)he can learn something from each and every conversation (s)he had. But some people don’t pay attention to such small matters, so they might miss out on some important and constructive elements of life.

…but this has nothing to do with street fashion anymore really, so let’s get back on track. :DD I just noticed that the red “thing” around both of Bajowoo’s wrists is actually the lining of the jacket! I love that! I love jackets which have a different colour lining in opposition to the colour of the jacket.
