Frequently asked
What exactly is a geisha, and what do they do?
Geishas are highly trained Japanese entertainers and artists who specialize in traditional music, dance, and conversation. They train for years to master their skills and are known for their sophistication and grace. Geishas wear elaborate kimonos and distinctive makeup, and they perform at special events and gatherings to entertain guests.
Why do geishas wear such elaborate makeup and hairstyles?
Traditional geisha makeup, called oshiroi, and hairstyles served both practical and artistic purposes. The white face makeup made performers visible under dim lighting, while the distinct look helped audiences recognize their talent level and specialty. Ornate hairstyles adorned with flowers and ornaments, called kanzashi, represented beauty and cultural heritage.
What is the difference between a geisha and a maiko?
A maiko is an apprentice geisha, typically between 15 and 20 years old, still learning the traditional arts. Geishas are fully trained professionals who have completed their apprenticeship. Maikos wear more colorful kimonos and longer obi sashes, while experienced geishas wear more subdued, elegant clothing that reflects their mastery.
