Hello everyone!
This time, we will introduce the types of kanzashi that go well with graduation hakama and the "golden ratio for how to choose them"✨
Do you graduates have any of these concerns?
"I've decided on my hakama look, but will my hair be long enough to wear a kanzashi?" "Is an ippon kanzashi only for people with long hair?"
This is the most common question we receive from people with upcoming graduation ceremonies. In fact, Kanzashi is an item that anyone can wear beautifully, regardless of hair length.
This time, we will explain the "golden ratio for choosing" different hairstyles, while also looking at the trends for 2026!
🌸Short Bob: Add some light and color to the sides
This is a style that I would recommend to anyone who has given up on wearing kanzashi because they can't tie them.👍
The golden rule for choosing: Scattering two or three small ornaments above the ears is the latest trend! Don't try to force them together, but insert them like hairpins or use them as an accent behind the ears.
The trick is to If you make a braid or insert it into a place where you have created a bunch with wax, it will hold even short hair firmly.
Recommended items for short bob hairstyles are here⬇️
🌸For those with medium to semi-long hair: A half-up style for a "Reiwa Retro" look
This length allows for the widest range of styling options 😄 The trend for 2026 is a deliberately "loose" half-up style!
The golden ratio for choosing: We recommend inserting a single hairpin diagonally into the knot, or using a double hairpin to create a swaying effect. 👍 Choosing a design with a bit of movement to match the volume of the hakama will also help make your face look smaller.
Recommended items for medium to semi-long hair:
🌸For those with long or thick hair: A classic "glamour" look with an upstyle
For those with long hair who can tie up a lot of hair, try the "one-strand hold-up" style, which is the true essence of Wargo.
🌸 How to choose a kanzashi that you can love not only for the graduation ceremony but also afterwards
The reason why wargo's hairpins are loved is that they are not a one-time thing.
After wearing it with a hakama at your graduation ceremony, you can also wear it with a summer yukata, a party dress for a thank-you party, or even with an everyday dress☺️ Simple and sophisticated designs like the "Tsukishizuku Ippon Kanzashi" are especially useful for putting your hair up in the office!
