抜け感

• 読み: ぬけかん
• ローマ字: nuke kan
• 漢字の分解: 抜 (pull out/remove) + け (from 抜ける) + 感 (feeling) → a sense of something being loosened or relaxed
• 発音: /nɯ.ke kaɴ/

意味

A relaxed, effortless vibe in fashion or makeup; the quality of looking unstudied and naturally cool.

抜け感 refers to intentionally incorporating elements of casualness or looseness into an otherwise put-together look. In fashion, it might mean leaving a button undone, choosing relaxed fits, or mixing casual pieces with formal ones. In hair styling, it describes loose, undone waves rather than rigid curls. The concept is central to modern Japanese fashion philosophy, which values the appearance of effortlessness over obvious polish.

例文

1. 抜け感のあるヘアスタイルにしたいんですけど。

3. 抜け感って狙いすぎると逆にダサくなるよね。
