Incense smoke and sutra chanting fill the night hall. Twenty years married into the old Shirakawa family, the widow and chief mourner Sae Shirakawa (37) is bound not by force but by the family's dignity: an offering of her hair to the dead — the "tonsure." Her mother-in-law states it quietly, "It is the Shirakawa custom." Sae removes the single coral ornament, her late husband's keepsake — the one spot of red in the black-and-white mourning — with her own hand. A temple nun capes her in silence and cuts: bangs, left, right, the long back hair falling onto the white cloth in stages, then wet-shaved smooth with a straight razor. The mourners watch; her daughter weeps. A chief mourner must not cry — even as twenty years of hair, and the face her husband loved, disappear. Full color, 30 pages / 100 panels. A non-sexual work focused on the humiliation of the cut. No nudity. All characters are adults (20+); the family and custom are fiction. This is the ENGLISH edition. A Japanese edition of this title is also available in this shop. Made with AI image generation. All characters are adults; everything depicted is fiction.
