I recently came across this old image of a oiran and i dont believe ive ever seen another oiran with a similar pony tail hairstyle before. I was wondering if you recognise it all?

Hello @fl3shisthelaw

Thank you for your ask. The term "Sagegami" is used as a catch all term for any Nihongami with a hanging ponytail. It can be read as "Hair hanging down the back" (��げ髪)

They are remnants of the Heian era when loose and long black hair was considered ideal in noble houses. Some distinct Nihongami have survived that are more distinct like the "Kottai Sagegami", prefered by Tayuu, the "Taregami" (垂れ髪) or Suberakashi (垂髪).

By the Edo period, Heian style hairstyles were already historic references so it harkened back to a golden age of noble culture. Any hairstyle with a long ponytail had this unique dignified air to it among a large collection of updos, which were very normal during the Edo period. Certainly something a Tayuu and later on an Oiran would have loved to do is imply any connection to noble status.

From what i have read, the Sagegami was one of more mature hairstyles, reserved for established Tayuu and Oiran.

Hope this helps. Thank you for dropping in.

"Keeper's Keeper" Name: Yed'al'terro (Dalter) Age at the start of the agent's origin story: 23 Gender: Male Sexual orientation: Hetero A bit of information: This is my second agent that I created while playing on the side of the Empire. The first was a human, a man completely loyal to the interests of the Sith Empire.Pretty bad guy. I'll draw him later. This agent I wanted to make a more complex and morally gray character. Because сhiss don't have a century long war with the Republic after all, I guess they don't have the same hatred as the Sith Empire.And his decisions are always more restrained,diplomatic, rational and occasionally merciful. He is a good boy who fell into bad company. Despite this he is very responsible, competent and tries his best to do good for the ally of the Chiss Ascendancy, albeit with less violent and destructive actions as the Empire prefers.
