Hey cutie! How are you? ♡ I was just reading through some blog posts when I was suddenly inspired to create a lil’ list of gyaru resources! There are just so many informative posts out there that I thought it would be nice to have it all in one place rather than me just saving links in multiple Google Docs and Bookmarks haha. This list will include lots of gyaru resources such as tutorials, advice, as well as some articles on the history of gyaru. Okay, let’s go!
Btw – This list will be constantly updated as I find new things!
To make things easier, I’ve decided to split everything up into different sections.
