Why did ancient Japanese women like to dress up as zombies?

It is every woman's nature to love beauty. As an island country, Japan's behavior puzzled many people. For example, when it comes to women's makeup, it is also bold and open; This is far beyond the imagination of our people.

In ancient Japan, it was said that Japanese women shaved their eyebrows, dyed their teeth black and painted their faces with white powder. Do you think it looks like a dead man's costume? This is how people make up. Japanese men like this style!

According to historical records, this kind of clothing began to appear in Heian period. At first, this kind of clothing was only popular among Japanese aristocrats, and later it was introduced to the people and became a popular clothing in society. They mixed iron filings and wine vinegar and applied them to their teeth, which is said to protect them!

They learned to shave their eyebrows from the Tang Dynasty in China. It is said that they shaved their eyebrows to draw their favorite eyebrows. This technique is called girl-crush, which actually turns these two black eyebrows into the wings of a big moth. This is Wu Zetian's, because of her high status!

As for applying thick white powder to the face, there are two purposes. First, it means that you are occupied and you are a woman. Now it's a ring. The second function is to dance at night, without lighting or applying thick powder for beauty.

This kind of divination suit has been passed down to the Meiji Restoration. With the progress of the times, the Japanese finally found it too scary and gradually stopped using it. However, this costume is still used in modern Japanese geisha performances. Now I finally know why Japanese geisha are so horrible!
