Make Yourself Look More Lively by Sticking an Electric Fan on Your Selfie Stick!

!
Previously, I wrote an article about how blowing wind on someone who's working makes them look cool.

Just blowing a hair dryer from the side to someone who's working in front of their PC can make them look cool. The wind's power is amazing. Fluttery hair makes people look livelier.

I was wondering if there was a way to bring that kind of wind with me anywhere I go, so I tried attaching an electric fan to a selfie stick.

Labor work to attach the electric fan to the selfie stick.

Let's immediately make the "Wind Blower Selfie Stick!"
A selfie stick I bought on a trip that has never been actually used. This thin, unreliable stick...

My only option was to use ridiculous amount of tape. It really doesn't have a single hint of style.

The Wind Blower Selfie Stick, complete! I should've at least bought a white fan.

Let's test it outside at once!

I was happy with how it turned out, so brought it outside right away.
This is how it looks when I bring it outside. Strangely makes me feel like an assistant director of some sorts.

Testing it on myself would be a waste because my hair is so short, so I asked Mrs. Ai Hinishi—another writer with long, silky hair— and her friend Mrs. S to tag along and help me.
For now, we entered the restaurant Torikizoku, a place with no wind inside, to test its effects. They asked me why I made this.

My brain still couldn't keep up with the weird idea that wind will blow from a selfie stick before I take the photo. And the photo of me in my phone was laughing twice as hard seeing wind blow indoor.

This is the captured photo. Apologies for the closed eyes in the "before" picture, but they're wide open in the "after" picture. My forehead came out a lot more than I'd like, but it feels very lively. Hard to get a good angle.
"Let me try for a bit." Mrs. Hinishi took on the challenge.
This is Mrs. Hinishi in her normal state. Her hair flows down calmly.

...looks like this. This is a TV commercial. This expression and fluttering hair are something you can usually only take with the sea in the background. The slight blur is just perfect. It's like we were no longer at Torikizoku.

"Wait, this thing's so good." "I've never seen a photo this lively indoors." "Feels like a shampoo commercial when you blow it from below, I like it." "I see something like this a lot in the Instagram of models in the summer." The amazement just wouldn't stop.
We've verified from the long-haired test that blowing from below gives the best result. Blow it...

"Let me try it, too." Her friend gave it a try as well. Her hair fluttered more vigorously compared to mine or Mrs. Hinishi's. I wonder why.
Seems like your hair type matters a lot. Mrs. Hinishi's hair is rather dense, while her friend's is finer.

Two people researching and comparing hair types. We concluded from our research that we need to change to angle and distance depending on the person.

After we finished taking pictures, we shared our impressions. "I never thought I'd feel this good looking at my hair fluttering in the wind." "Such a mysteriously refreshing feeling." "I feel reluctant to part with this when I turned it off." This Wind Blower Selfie Stick is amazing.

While I'm at it, let me share some photos I took at various places.
At store I went into to eat yakiniku.

Fwooosh. I'm getting the hang of it. I just realized it now, but when the wind blows, a person's expression becomes softer.

Wind Blower Selfie Stick you'd want to bring to any indoor event.

Blow the wind to make your drinking party or your house look strangely livelier. If it didn't look so embarrassing I think this is something I can actually sell. But well, the embarrassing look really means that it's not a good idea.
It would have been better if I turned the wind on even with multiple people in the shot. My bad.
