motoyui
A type of string that was used to style hair in Japan historically; sometimes falls under the hair tube tag if noteably elongated.
Typically - though not always - white in color. Looks like wrapped cloth or ribbon, sometimes with pieces sticking out (see below).
May be seen depicted in images of traditional Japanese hairstyles, such as the chasenmage or the chonmage.
