Glay Dictionary - Jiro Obsession Edition

Go! Ikuze!!!

(Usually, after this phrase, you would hear the bass introduction of "Shutter Speeds no Teema")
~ Let's see his eyebrows! ~

As Aciel said, in HEAVY GLAY-GE - Volume 1 Issue 5 (May 2000) -
visual band members will pluck their eyebrows.
So does Jiro - but, this has to be very skillful!

TO ARCH, OR NOT TO ARCH?

At first, his eyebrows were not too nice. . . . . .they were in a horizontal, straight line. . .		In the Beloved period, curve appeared, but it was very, very thin. . .

Then thicker, and the curve is higher!

Up until the present time, there are still times when the eyebrows are darker and bushy!

Is it because of the effect different lighting has, or the coloring? I dont' know. . .
BUSHY		NOT BUSHY

.What I don't understand is this: *If someone keeps on plucking his/her eyebrows, won't the hair eventually "die" and will not grow anymore? How can Jiro could change his eyebrows from thin to thick?

EDITOR'S NOTE: If a person stops plucking their eyebrows, the hairs keep growing. In fact, one of my friends has a degree in cosmetology (cosmetics) and she told me I'm lucky I never plucked my eyebrows! She said if I had, the hairs would not be fine (thin) and tapered! She said if I had been plucking my eyebrows, the hairs would have eventually grown back thicker!

She did say that if eyebrows are shaved, they sometimes don't grow back (or, they can grow back in some spots, but the entire eyebrow sometimes doesn't grow back! *gasps*

~ His eyes! ~

First, let's see what he said in Caramel Box (Issue 7) -

"When I was in primary school, because I was afraid of the strong sunlight, my eyes became smaller! After Debut, since I got used to those strong lights, the eyes got wider and wider! I am 1.5 short-sighted in both eyes."

~ Cosmetics!!! His eyes shadow! ~

Well, I am not good at this -I can just observe from the photos; therefore, some of this may be wrong. This is what I found:

x

Different ways of applying cosmetics . . .

. . .This is a general view - I don't think he applies them the same way every time.

from Pure Soul trading cards

In the Big Egg Dome - 1999 - he wore glittering eyeshadow! . . .

. . .at first, I thought the glistening was perspiration!

Is this deep red?

.~ Jiros lips!! ~

.This is what makes him gorgeous (for me)!!!

His lips make him like he is going to cry at anytime,

but he said he didn't like his lips when he was small.

.In Caramel Box (Issue 7), he said his lips are the same as his mom's and sisters'.

(So, if you are in Hokkaido - or at a Glay concert - and you happen to notice a girl with lips that look like Jiro's lips, she may be his sister!).

He looks good with any kind of comestic!!! Hohoho~
	Left: This one is silvery. This photo was taken in 1998. If I remember correctly, Aube had released a new line of silvery lipstick at that time! Did Jiro use Aube? Right: This photo is recent - from Spring 2000. Lip gloss is so popular now, of course Jiro wouldn't miss current trends!
His lips are always beautiful, so I choose the photos (above) featuring special lipstick.
Making a funny face!		Great sense of humor!
Below Left: Glittery foundation!
	Left: I really like his glitter foundation in this photo! So special and cute! Right: I think this photo was taken after a concert because he has no make-up on, but his hair is set (and messy). Jiro will always put on comestics before setting his hair (all of them do this). I really wonder who could take a photo of him just after he removed his make-up!
Above Right: Jiro with no make-up!
