Graduated from Kunitachi College of Music, Faculty of Music (now: Department of Music Culture and Education, Early Childhood Music Education major). In elementary school, my homeroom teacher was Jun Kusaba, a game researcher. After graduating from university, I worked as a kindergarten teacher for 10 years and as an after-school childcare instructor for 7 years, then took a position as a music teacher at an international school in Singapore. In addition to music education, I engaged in activities that introduced Japanese culture, traditional games, and recreational activities, working with many children. Later, through freelance writing, planning, and editing at Shogakukan, I met many delightful adults and experienced the joy of communicating and sharing. Drawing on the perspective cultivated in the field of education and my experience as an editor, I provide practical information with an emphasis on both input and output, mainly in areas related to music and children. My hobbies include instruments, singing, handicrafts, toys, drawing, traditional games, the outdoors, and books. My special skill is spinning-top tricks.

[For Moms] Recommended Cute-and-Grown-up Hairstyles for Sports Day (21–30)

Side three-strand braid flip (kururinpa)

Easy Rapunzel Hair Anyone Can Make with the Topsy Tail and a Three-Strand Braid

Side three-strand braid flip (kururinpa)

A gorgeous down style that combines a braid and a topsy tail is recommended for those with longer hair.

Work styling product through your hair, sweep it to one side, and gather it low into a single ponytail.

Create a gap above the elastic and flip the ponytail through (topsy tail).

Wrap a small section of hair around the elastic to hide it, then braid the ends and gently loosen the braid for a chic braided look.

Lightly pull out a bit of hair at the crown and sides for a relaxed finish to elevate the style even more.

To keep it in place, set it with hairspray at the end.

For short bobs! Three half-up hairstyles that are absolutely cute

[Short Bob Hairstyles] 3 Absolutely Cute Half-Up Styles

For short bobs! Three half-up hairstyles that are absolutely cute

Among hairstyles popular with women, the half-up style is drawing particular attention.

Characterized by a princess-like, cute look, it’s a hairstyle that enhances the charm of women with short or bob cuts.

Its softly voluminous, sweet vibe is also very popular with men.

You can enjoy a wide range of variations—from the classic method of tightening the hair after a “topsy tail” twist, to styles that incorporate braids and gentle loosening, perfect for pairing with ribbons.

Adding your favorite flowers or ribbons is also recommended.

It’s a hair arrangement brimming with a girly mood.

Rope-braided bun

[Hair Arrangement] Low Rope Braid Bun Hairstyle You Can Do Yourself

Rope-braided bun

A low bun that lets you show off your hairstyling even with a hat on! Gather your hair into a single ponytail at the back, split the ponytail into two sections, and twist them together like a rope braid.

Tie the ends with an elastic, wrap them around the base, gently loosen the bun, and pull up the crown for volume, and you’ve got a neat, stylish look.

Tying it right at the back gives a mature vibe, but shifting the bun slightly to the side so it’s visible from the front also creates a cute finish.

Braided side ponytail

[Easy Hairstyles] 3 Side Arrangements You Can Do with Just One Hair Tie

Braided side ponytail

A side-up hairstyle with added braids is a hair arrangement that boosts both style and staying power! After brushing, take a section of hair from the top and start braiding diagonally as if gathering it toward the side.

Once you’ve braided the whole section, tie it tightly with an elastic, then gently loosen the braid for texture and curl the ends to finish.

Because it gathers the hair securely, you won’t have to worry about it getting messy even on windy days! It’s a perfect style for outdoor events, including sports day.

Twist it with a ribbon! Girly hair arrangement

Super cute no-bangs hairstyle arrangement 👙💗

Twist it with a ribbon! Girly hair arrangement

If you like girly hairstyles, we recommend an arrangement that incorporates a ribbon! Place a ribbon where you would normally wear a headband and secure it with a clip so it doesn’t slip.

Twist the ribbon together with the hair in front of it on each side and bring it toward the back, then gently loosen it for texture.

Join the two twists at the back of your head, secure with pins, and tie the ribbon into a bow to complete a hairstyle that highlights the ribbon’s girly charm! Threading a ribbon through a braid also makes for an adorable look.
