Keppatu (Hairdo Techniques for Okinawan Traditional Performance)
Mr. Konami Norio, the holder of Important Intangible Cultural Properties, training the successor. Keppatu is a traditional hairdo technique for Okinawan traditional performances designated as Important Intangible Cultural Properties, such as Kumiodori (ICPa15, 16) or Ryukyu Buyo. Profound knowledge on each stage program and appropriate technique is needed, since each hairstyle represents the age and status of the role, historical backgrounds, or the actors/actress themselves. In this way, Keppatu technique is indispensable for the preservation of Important Intangible Cultural Properties.
