Ayu's social networks - Discussion #47 - Page 23

I think candid photos like this are nice. Not posing, kinda spacing out as everyone tends to do. A glimpse of natural Ayu just being ordinary.

They remind me of old Ayu, but it is a bit odd how sometimes her face changes so much from candid to candid due to apps and so on. We do know she's been guilty of doing thing like 'airbrushing' even making ofs so that her skin is blurred out after all. (watch old making ofs, you'll see a 'tracked' spot of blurring around her cheeks sometimes)

^ I really wonder why she feels the need to edit her face so much, i mean she's soooo beautiful already, why bother??

When I saw that post on instagram my reaction was, "who is that?" "Is that Ayu???"

It took me a second to recognize her. I don't think anything is "wrong" with the photo. Just that Ayu looks very different here for some reason. Maybe because of lighting, edits, shadows, angles, could be any number of reasons.
Celebrities use things like photoshop and beauty apps to "enhance" their face shape or eyes or skin because of situations like this. They know that every time they are on camera, people will be analyzing every detail of their face, hair, skin, weight, or even their breasts.

I don't know. I noticed it a long while back .. might be due to some severe lines she didn't like showing up at the time, or that she was trying to show people a 'perfect Hamasaki Ayumi'.

Beauty apps to edit faces are also pretty popular in Japan.

I think the whole entertainment world make women look perfect the whole time! Women are judged head to toe all the time. And the beauty standard for women is very high so it's hard to keep up with the media and public expectations. Imagine being judged every single minute of your day. Perfect hair, perfect weight, perfect muscles, always smiling. Humans are obsessed with perfection. And when we don't feel like we're perfect, we put expectations in someone else and start judging. And then the cycle of perfection keeps going on.

In this picture, her hair looks like a painting. Surreal. Love the phone case.

truehappiness · #**450** 13th January 2018, 06:53 PM

Oh, is this the LOVE hair?

Zeke. · #**451** 13th January 2018, 07:27 PM

God her hair looks absolutely gorgeous there. I hope she keeps this style for a LONG time!! I can’t wait to see pictures of her with it from other angles.

truehappiness · #**452** 13th January 2018, 07:40 PM

What I worry about usually is that it looks like that styled for the day or two after and then it's changed to something else for the rest of her time with that hair length.

AyuWorld · #**453** 14th January 2018, 06:54 AM

So truuuee! Omg I was so happy last night when I saw this! Like her hair is everything so drop dead gorgeous! So happy me <33333 and she looked great too <333

And yes Im so agreed with TH, knowing Ayu she would change that hair style to anything else that usually I wouldnt like xD xD please Ayu make it stay longer.

Is that in the Shinkanse? And looked like shes using that LV phone casing for iPhone 8

ayumi_croatia · #**454** 14th January 2018, 11:22 AM

Love her hair there...don't like the phone case. I despise LV.

pedronekoi · #**455** 14th January 2018, 05:46 PM

Her hair looks amazing!! Loved the length, texture, curls. <3 Perfect

By the way, the subtitle is the lyrics of ourselves:
"We know each other so well".

Teppei-chan · #**456** 14th January 2018, 08:24 PM

I love that hairstyle, it looks so elegant on her ♥

KittyKathy · #**457** 14th January 2018, 09:22 PM

悲しきことは、自分のために自分の姿見失うこと。
花びら散るように、揺れる心誇り高くあれ。
