Karawa - Karawa

Japanese: 唐輪 - からわ
Karawa - Karawa

A type of Japanese hairstyle. Both men and women wore it. The karawa hairstyle for men was worn by young samurai and temple children during the Kamakura period, and its shape is similar to the child's topknot of later times. The hair is tied at the base, raised to the top of the head, tied in a knot there, then divided into two, and tied into a circle on the forehead. On the other hand, the karawa hairstyle for women is a style that began during the Tensho period (1573-92) of the Azuchi-Momoyama period, in which the hair is tied at the root, made into a circle, and the remaining part is wrapped around the root, as hanging hair is inconvenient for work.

Japanese:

日本髪の一種。男女ともに結んだ。男性の唐輪は、鎌倉時代に武家の若者や寺院の稚児(ちご)などが結った髪形で、その形は後世における稚児髷(まげ)に類似している。その結び方は、髪のもとを取りそろえて百会(ひゃくえ)(脳天)にあげ、そこで一結びしてから二分し、額の上に丸く輪とした。一方、女性の唐輪は、下げ髪が仕事の際に不便なので、根で一結びしてから輪につくり、その余りを根に巻き付けたもので、安土(あづち)桃山時代の天正(てんしょう)年間(1573~92)から行われた。
