Japanese Hairstyles: Historical Overview Part 02: Women’s Hairstyles of the Edo Period, Part 03
Hairstyle Name: Kikugasane (菊重ね) lit. “Chrysanthemum Layers”
This hairstyle is a combination of the Yuiwata (ゆいわた) and Ichougaeshi (銀杏返し). In this style, the topknot has the rounded portion behind the the forelocks and the tail (just like the Yuiwata), but has two loops of hair (just like the Ichougaeshi) coming out perpendicular to the topknot. Then, a piece of loosely bound cotton (or brocade) is tied around the loops of the topknot where they intersect.
Today, is worn by maiko during Setsubun or by the senior maiko of Pontocho as part of a series of hairstyles signifying the arrival of her erikae. In the Edo period, it was probably worn by single town girls between the ages of 17-19 years old. It was never worn by women of the samurai or court noble classes.
