About this place

From the staff

Look through hairstyle photos and decide together with your stylist. We'll choose products to suit your scalp and talk you through them.
Aoki, the salon manager

Why this place supports social causes

Every month we keep a record of how we cut down on the water and chemicals we use. Once a month, we visit a nearby facility to cut hair there.

From the place

Because we're a salon that also tells our customers how we're cutting down on the water and chemicals we use.
Opens its space to the communityWe record how much chemical product we use every month.

Staff

  • Aoki

    Salon manager & stylist

    I care less about what's easy to cut and more about what's easy to style every morning.
