Oh god what a disturbing gif... i dont even

It's totally her & she looks lovely. This pic reminds me the ones she shooted in 2000. She had the same hairstyle & a rose in her hair.
I know that the 4 magazines are linked with the T-shirt thing but I hope we won't have another white background for the two others.

what kind of 80s photoshop

Ok... I'll be blunt. I love it! :D She looks serene. :)

Reminds me of the style of those memes.

"NATURAL AYU"


HAS PLATINUM BLONDE HAIR.


I just have to LOL.

i like it. :/

i wondered why people talk about photoshop again and again...

do you know how the lighting on studio and the rendering on camera can make this without photoshop? maybe photoshop just made her skin looks more smooth, but other than that...i think it's her...it's just head position that makes her looks like that...

I like it, can't wait for a scan tbh

It looks fine to me. The angle is a bit strange though since she's kind of pale here and it looks like she's tilting her head back which results in people thinking it's photoshopped or something.

The inner shots will probably be less offensive to people, lol.

I realised what I find wrong with it.
Her chin. It's so square-shaped here! Plus the wig is AWFUL.

eh NO :no

i hink the "natural" is for the make-up not for her hair...;p

i doubt it's a wig, i mean she has the same hair, and we know she has extentions but that's deffinitelly not a wig.

It seems like her hair starts about 10cm above her actual head, which is usually how it looks with a not-so-fitting-wig. Wig or not, still looks horrible. Hair style in ViVi was x999 times better.

For me it's those blue contacts.
I don't think they flatter her at all. :/

Saying that though, I think it's just the angle plus the puffy wig that make her face look a bit different. xD

^Her contacts are more grayish than blue. O.o;

Too weird an angle to really say anything about the pic. Private Ayu, I'm curious about this, though.

um i think it's the angle of the picture of the mag cover plus Japan has a hystory of having this kind of styling going on:

I think they are very blue-grayish. :lech

@artcika:
Oh! I see. So they must cut the fringe not just from the hairline, but also a bit more closer to the top of the head (if that makes sense). I always assumed it was a wig thing. xD

I think this is an Ayu wig though still. Unless she's gotten a fringe recently? (I assumed the LOVE cover was a wig too; I could be wrong though).

I don't really like it but I don't understand some comments.
Have you seen M PV?

It just reminds me of herself in 2000.

I too think its a wig, just one that she has been using a lot lately
