    -How old are you? 35 -Where are you from? Australia -How important is fashion for you in a scale of 1-10? 3 -Do you have a classic style or you are more avant garde? Classic, simple -What issues would you like to solve, related to nowadays clothes? I'd like to see more of a focus on sustainable fashion rather than fast fashion. -Do you express yourself through your clothes? As much as a mother of two young kids can, I guess...to me these days, fashion has gone out of the window a little in place of functionality! -Do you like to draw attention to you? No - I'm definitely someone who doesn't draw attention to myself through clothing. -Do you like unique clothes or you don't care? I prefer simple classic styles - a well cut t shirt and jeans and I'm happy! Good luck with your studies!

    I'm in my late 40s. I'm from North America. Fashion is important to me. I like to look approachable, classy, and appropriately dressed for the occasion. I think I'm on the classic side for work, but more youthful and fun for casual wear. A big issue for me, like @genkidesu is sustainable fashion. Clothes that are durable, machine-washable (dry cleaning is expensive and hard on the environment), and carefully constructed mean a lot to me. Budget is also a consideration. I'd rather pay more for a high quality garment that lasts forever than a cheap but trendy item that falls apart quickly. One of my suits is older than I am and it's my favorite! A 1960s mod tweed suit I wear to work. The wardrobe I wear definitely expresses something about my attitudes, lifestyle, and image I'd like to project. I want to look cool, classy, and fun, but I don't show a lot of skin. I don't want to draw a lot of attention, as I'm a standout as a non-Japanese woman. However, I do hope people look at my outfit and think I'm elegantly dressed for formal, or sophisticated with casual wear. I'm not so much interested in unique things as clothes that fit well, flatter my shape, and are made of quality fibers and fabrics. I like new interpretations of classic styles without fussy details.

    -30 years old -USA -About an 8 -More on the classic side -There has been a lot of talk about "cultural appropriation" in the clothing/fashion industry lately. I think it needs to be discussed. -Yes. I often choose clothes and colors based on my mood -I already stand out in Japan because of my skin and hair color, so I don't often wear clothes that will draw further attention to myself. -I like unique and regular clothes. I like to have a variety of options to choose from to suit the situation/event/environment.

Big, American-style deli sandwiches?

I don't know if any of you have any recommendations, but is anyone aware of any good spots that sell big, American-style deli sandwiches? I'm talking about ones with loads of deli meat (turkey, ham, salami, etc.) and veggies on good quality bread. I used to love King George Deli in Daikanyama when I'd be in Tokyo, but they've unfortunately closed down.

Izu Islands exploration!

Genkidesu asked about Hachijojima, a place I've visited twice. Has anybody else explored the other islands in the Izu chain? What do you recommend for a solo traveler? A couple or family?

Is your locale suffering from overtourism or is it...crickets?

I've lived on the periphery of Tokyo, commuted in for some years, and finally pulled back. Is the city or region you live in crowded with tourists from abroad or is it an off-the-beaten track location? Do the claims of "overtourism" ring true to you or do you think it's overblown?

What shampoo brand do you recommend for dandruff?

I have been dealing with this dandruff situation for quite a while now and I still can't seem to figure out how to get rid of this problem. I have tried several shampoo brands/products like head and shoulders, ANGFA organic shampoo and the Honey Deep Moist Shampoo. And none of them worked so far. Some say it's because of hot shower. Well I do shower every day, but I don't use hot shower all the time. I rinse my hair thoroughly after applying shampoo and conditioner. I also tried applying shampoo every other day just to make my hair less dry but I still none of those tricks are working. If there is a product that you recommend that suits every man's budget then I would appreciate it so much.
