Following the Gyaru trend (ganguro is a branch off) isn't just about having a tan. It's about following the fashion, having a certain attitude and way of life. It's a lot more complicated than just a tan.

Ganguro originates from the Californian beach look, but it has changed A LOT since then.

It's far from trailer trash. It's about looking your best and having the best, even thought most Gals lack money it's because they follow such an expensive trend. They won't be seen without the latest designer brands etc. I guess the closest Western persona who could only slightly be related to the ganguro trend would be people along the lines of Paris Hilton.
