Girlie Curly Long (TM: 名媛風捲髮 Míng Yuàn Fēng Juǎn Fà/JP: たてまきガーリーヘア Tatemaki Girly Hair) is one of Hair & Makeup Cards that were introduced in 2004 Fall-Winter Collection/Version 1. It was taken out of the main roster from 2007 Spring Sakura Collection/Version 10 onwards but returns back in Best Collection being in the 8th rank and in Finale Collection as one of the trump cards where the joker/wild card of clubs lies.
Before the public opening of the game, it was one of the Sparkling Location Test Cards.

Etymology
Japanese
Tatemaki (たてまき): たてまき refers to 縦巻き, which means longitudinal winding or curling (e.g. hair). It's also used to describe Ringlets/Sausage Curls, based on the meanings (たて meaning weaving and まき meaning to coil).
Gārī (ガーリー): The Japanese Katakana transliteration of the English word Girly, which complements the previous word by describing the style.
Hea (ヘア): The Japanese Katakana transliteration of the English word Hair.
Taiwanese Mandarin
Míng Yuàn Fēng (名媛風): 名媛 refers to a lady with wide reputation or a female celebrity, and 風 is attached to the former to mean Style. This is presumably a hint to its stage chemistry (either seaside stage or idol stage).
Juǎn Fà (捲髮): The term can either mean Curly or Wavy hair, as 捲 means Curl and both of the meanings have curly features in the hairstyle. This describes the hairstyle.
English
Girlie Curly Long: Girlie is an alternative form of Girly, and Curly Long is probably a more general-like way to describe たてまき better.
Trivia
- According to the Best Collection numbering, this was the 8th most popular card around that time.
