 Several days before the misedashi, the walls of the okiya are decorated with Mokuroku - hand-painted posters, that are presented to the debuting maiko, by patrons or people from the hanamachi. The design on Mokuroku feature lucky designs and themes, as well as words of encouragement for a young Maiko.

 During the 3 days of the debut, Maiko Toshimomo wore an exquisite formal kuromotsuki and with her wareshiobu   hairstyle decorated with valuable bekkou kanzashi, that are   made of tortoise shell. Accompanied by her oneesan and the younger members of her okiya, they visited  establishments important to the okiya.
