 This hairstyle was first seen on courtesans in the pleasure quarters. This hairstyle was especially popular among courtesans of the “Koshi” rank, which is one level beneath those of the “Tayuu” rank. It eventually became popular among fashionable women outside of the pleasure quarters. Once it left the pleasure quarters, it would’ve been worn by merchant class women of the shitamachi areas of Tokyo.
