Información
Geisha are traditional, female Japanese entertainers, whose skills include performing various Japanese arts, such as classical music and dance~

Geisha are not prostitutes.

A maiko (apprentice Geisha) wears a tall platform sandal called an Okobo.
Maiko get their hair done only once a week and must sleep on an elevated pillow to keep their hair intact.
Their parasol's(kasa) are made from Bamboo and Silk

In Memoirs of a geisha, the mizuage is depicted as a deflowering ceremony, in which the geisha had physical relations with a client for the first time.
However, this type of coming-of-age was practiced by the courtesans called oiran.

    I just read another geisha book. xD Finished it in a day.

    Autobiography of a Geisha by Sayo Masuda.

    It's verrry sad! :( She's wasn't a city geisha, so she had a poorer standard of living. o.o
    Still, a very good book. :D
