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 for 10 years as a kindergarten teacher and for 7 years as an after-school childcare instructor, then took a post as a music teacher at an international school in Singapore. In addition to music education, I also engaged in activities that shared Japanese culture, traditional games, and recreational play, working with many children. Afterwards, through freelance writing, planning, and editing work at Shogakukan, I met many delightful adults and experienced the joy of communicating and conveying ideas. Leveraging the perspective cultivated in educational settings and my experience as an editor, I aim to deliver practical information—focusing on fields related to music and children—that values both input and output. Hobbies include instruments, singing, handcrafts, toys, drawing, traditional play, the outdoors, books, DIY, and crafts. Special skill: spinning-top tricks.

A person from the melodic hardcore boom generation who loves music, photography, and eating. I’ve been going to live houses for over 20 years. I’m at the age where summer festivals are starting to feel tough physically. I sometimes try shooting live photos and videos for MVs. I’m not great at English, so I often listen to straightforward Japanese rock that hits directly, but if someone recommends something, I’ll listen to anything—Western or Japanese—broadly and casually. I like cooking while listening to music; it’s a nice way to relieve stress.

Regular braids are fine, but weaving in ribbons instantly elevates the style.

Ribbon hair half-up

For students, the sports festival is a moment in the spotlight—and nothing complements it quite like a ribbon half-up hairstyle.

Based on a half-up style that pulls up only the top half of the hair, the large ribbon leaves an even stronger impression.

The key is to add volume with a curling iron or straightener and to gather the strands neatly.

It has a glamorous, girly vibe that’s sure to make hearts skip a beat.

It’s a hairstyle that lets you show a different side of yourself from everyday school life and appeal to your crush.

Why not give it a try at the sports festival, when the entire student body comes together?

Heart hair

[Heart Hair] Easy and Cute Ribbon Heart Hairstyle for Valentine’s Day ♥ A Hair Arrangement Kids Will Love!

Heart hair

Let’s try a heart hairstyle that’s sure to steal the spotlight at your sports festival! First, create a half-up style and thread a ribbon through the hair tie you used to secure it.

Then do a reverse topsy tail as is, and split both the tied section and the ribbon ends into left and right.

Braid each side into a four-strand braid.

Once each side reaches a certain length, tie the two braided sections together.

A heart shape will appear at the back of your head! Next, gather the rest of your hair together with the heart section and tie them, then hide the tie with the ribbon to finish.

If you still have enough length left, try making additional four-strand braids with the remaining hair together with the ribbon.
