Harajuku is a place in Japan where teens go and hang out. They are usually the outcasts of society [the equivilent of Goth and Punk in the UK and America] that gather together in groups, to socialise, and some also pose for tourist photos. There isn't really a generic Harajuku style - there are many different styles in Harajuku, such as Decora, Ganguro, Lolita and Visual Kei to name a few. Look in books called 'Fruits' and 'Fresh Fruits' which have a lot of images of styles in Harajuku.
That's how I'd put it, anyway ^-^ I picked freedom of expression because Harajuku isn't really a style.
If you want to interview me, I dress Gothic Lolita quite often, and I know quite a bit about it. That would be fine by me ^_^ I am not from Japan though, I am from the UK.
