1. hair dyed brown; brown-dyed hair
2. ChapatsuLiterally "brown hair", chapatsu is the once-rebellious, once-trendy style of bleaching hair, found among Japanese teens. While the style itself began to show up in Tokyo streets during the early to mid-1990s, the word did not appear in Kōjien (one of Japan's authoritative dictionaries) until 1998. The style first gained popularity among adolescent girls, seeking to accentuate their tanned skin (rebelling against more traditional definitions of beauty), but quickly grew into the mainstream.
