classic Japanese women's low pompadour hairstyle
A traditional hairstyle where the front hair is puffed out like a visor or eaves (庇). Rare term; mainly encountered in historical or cultural contexts.
Women wearing the hisashigami hairstyle are often depicted in ukiyo-e prints.
Full kanji spelling; the first character 庇 is not a jōyō kanji, so this form is less common.
Compound of 庇 (ひさし, 'eaves, visor') + 髪 (かみ, 'hair'), referring to the hairstyle's resemblance to the overhanging eaves of a building.
