It is said that there are hundreds of different Japanese hairstyles, and the way a person's Japanese hairstyle was styled could reveal their age, status, and whether they were married or unmarried.
Women in the Edo period enjoyed fashion just as much as modern women do, but how were Japanese hairstyles styled in an era when there was no hairspray, wax, or hair tie that we use today?
We will recreate the ingenious techniques of the past in the Reiwa era!
We will style a Japanese hairstyle that suits the personality of each person, from children to wives.
We hope you will enjoy the experience of traveling back in time to the Edo period.

When tying your own hair at the top of your head, as long as it is over 10cm long, it will be enough to style your own hair in a Japanese hairstyle. We can also handle light-colored hair that has been dyed. Why not try out the traditional Edo techniques with your own hair. You may discover a side of yourself you've never seen before♪
