#taregami

Thank you

Hi there!

So, when I did a google image search, it said this website was the source: https://yamada-katsura.com/blog/1734. The website calls it 短垂髪 (町人), which translates directly to "Tan-Taregami (Chounin)," which literally means "Short hair tied behind and hanging down (townspeople)."

So this seems likely to be a pre-Edo period (pre-1603) hairstyle for the much lower classes. Certainly, someone in the Edo period can still wear this style (since it's literally a low ponytail), but it would be a sign of like intense poverty or even illness since women getting their hair done up in the Edo period would have been considered akin to basic hygiene.
