What’s on offer
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 welcomeSalomb 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 serviceJapanese 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 serviceMeteo 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 hairMeteo 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 hairColor & 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.

I have been colouring hair for 35 years, and I was doing balayage in Australia before I came back to Japan. It has been seven years since I last worked overseas, so I am taking the Master of Balayage certification to bring my colour work up to date. Foil work reopens in December.
If you would like to know the day it opens, message me on WhatsApp and I will tell you before I announce it anywhere else.
Why hair colour can turn out differently in Japan →
Each appointment books 90–180 minutes of chair time instead of the usual 60–90, so nothing is rushed. It includes a full consultation in English or Japanese, and covers the additional technique, product and processing time that curly, wavy and non-Asian hair textures require.
This course is open to every guest. The price reflects the time booked and the work involved — not who is booking it. A shorter standard course is also available; please ask.
* The full money-back guarantee applies to the Extended Specialist Course.
* USD figures are a rough guide only, based on approx. ¥159 = $1 (September 2026). Please check the current rate.

“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 more than 13 years living and working in Australia and Germany — 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.
