What’s on offer

01

Precision Haircut & Styling

More than shortening length — it’s about engineering a shape that moves naturally with your lifestyle and hair texture. Using 35 years of global expertise, every cut is tailored to your unique bone structure, hair density, and daily routine.

All hair types welcome
02

Salomb Nano-Bubble Scalp Detox

The Salomb system generates ultra-fine bubbles — 200× smaller than a strand of hair — that penetrate deep into the scalp and cuticle gaps, removing impurities that regular shampoo simply cannot reach. The result: softer, shinier hair from the very first wash.

Included in every service
03

Japanese Head Spa Ritual

A deeply relaxing 7-minute scalp massage that promotes circulation and hair health. This is the quiet ritual Japan is quietly famous for — the kind that makes you wonder why you didn’t discover it sooner.

Included in every service
04

Meteo Alkaline Acid Treatment

A premium hair repair system that creates new internal bonds (amino crosslinks) within the hair shaft — not just surface coating. It eliminates frizz, restores elasticity, and adds a deep, mirror-like shine that lasts. Ideal for damaged, aging, or chemically-treated hair.

Recommended for damaged hair
05

Meteo Silk Straightening

A high-end straightening system formulated for hair health, not just results. Even after treatment, your hair can be curled with an iron — maintaining natural movement while eliminating unwanted frizz. Especially effective in Japan’s humid climate.

Works on curly & frizzy hair
06

Color & Selective Foils

Using premium European colorants with advanced bond-building chemistry. Yasu applies specialized foil techniques designed for the delicate texture of Western hair — no “zebra-stripe” results, no unnecessary damage. Natural dimension, healthy color.

“Finding a stylist who truly understands your hair is a challenge — especially when living abroad. I’ve been on both sides of that experience.”

I’m Yasu Tanaka. Over a 35-year career, I spent 15 transformative years living and working in Australia, Germany, and the USA — immersing myself in diverse cultures and, more importantly, mastering the art of working with diverse hair textures.

I returned to Sapporo — my hometown — to open this small, private salon. One client at a time. Every technique I’ve ever learned, in service of your hair.
