Why I Keep Working Out — The Habit That Builds Self-Esteem
“Why do you keep working out so much?”
Sometimes, clients ask me that.
Well… to be honest, at first it was for my family.
When my child was born, I started because I wanted to be strong enough to protect my family if something ever happened.
But as time went on, I realized it wasn’t just about that.
Working out is, in the end, “time to take care of myself.”
It’s for health, for posture, but most importantly, it’s about building confidence.
That’s what I call my “habit of nurturing self-esteem.”
Self-Esteem Isn’t a Complicated Word
When people hear “self-esteem,” it might sound like a complex concept,
but to put it simply, it’s about whether you can like yourself or not.
It’s about being able to say, “This is who I am, and that’s okay.”
It’s the same with hairstyles.
I always design with the goal of helping my clients feel good about themselves.
It’s not just about what’s trendy or what suits them best—
it’s about creating a look that makes them say, “Yeah, this feels like me.”
Beauty isn’t just about changing how you look;
it’s about energizing your heart.
And that energy comes from small daily habits.
Habits Build Self-Esteem
What I’ve learned from continuing my workouts is that
“the act of continuing” itself becomes confidence.
Even if it’s just five minutes, just knowing “I did it today”
can make your whole day feel more positive.
It’s the same with hair and scalp care.
The small habits you keep every day shape your future self.
Take shampooing, for example.
I want people to see it not just as “washing time,” but as “self-care time.”
What I always recommend is “Herb Magic.”
It’s an organic, plant-based soap that can be used for the whole body.
It foams up easily—just apply it to your scalp and leave it for ten minutes.
That alone improves circulation and helps balance your nervous system.
Going to an expensive salon occasionally is nice,
but daily habits are far more powerful.
Your hair, scalp, and even your heart change gradually through consistency.
That’s what I believe true “preventive beauty” is.
“Taking Care of Your Hair” and “Taking Care of Your Mind” Are Connected
I always aim to create designs that raise my clients’ self-esteem.
It’s not just about the hairstyle itself—
it’s about valuing the human connection that happens when two people meet face to face.
Not AI, not robots—
but real human-to-human interaction.
Through that, people start to like themselves more, to move forward, to feel encouraged.
Creating those moments is what makes this job truly meaningful to me.
Working out and shampooing are both “habits that help you align yourself.”
By continuing, you gradually learn to like yourself more.
That, I believe, is the closest path to building self-esteem.
Going to a salon is important, of course,
but what really matters most are “the small things you do every day.”
Within those small, steady moments lies the foundation of both mental and physical health.
