Why I Wear Bold Clothes — A Message About Living Freely
“Taka, why do you always wear such bold and colorful clothes?”
Clients ask me this from time to time.
Blue, green, yellow, red, purple, pink…
I intentionally incorporate high-saturation colors into my everyday outfits, so yes, they definitely stand out.
But the truth is, I don’t wear them because I want to look flashy.
■ What I value most is protecting your individuality
I always tell my clients:
“It’s okay to value your individuality more.”
“Prioritize what you like over what others think.”
“Life and hairstyles become more fun when you stop forcing yourself into a box.”
I’m not denying trends. But losing your individuality just to follow trends feels like such a waste.
Common hairstyles, common fashion, common makeup…
If you truly choose those things because you love them, that’s wonderful. But if you’re choosing them simply to blend in, your happiness won’t increase.
A hairstyle is not just a shape — it’s part of your way of living.
That’s why I want my clients to cherish their own uniqueness above all else.
■ Bold clothes are a message: “You are free”
I wear colorful outfits to express this idea *visually*.
“You can be more free.”
“You can step outside the usual boundaries.”
“You can trust your own sensibilities.”
I want to express this not only through words, but also through how I live.
Of course, I’m not recommending that every client choose bold colors.
Bold clothes ≠ bold hair.
“The courage to choose what you truly love.”
That’s all I want to communicate.
If my clothing helps someone feel, “Maybe it’s okay to be a little more free,” then that alone is enough for me.
■ Why I create clothing — I want to design not just hair, but a way of living
Actually, I don’t only work with hair.
My wife and I work as partners: she creates the clothes, and I design the hair.
Not only hairstyles, but clothing as well,
so we can “design the client’s individuality as a whole.”
That’s the kind of world we want to create.
Fashion, hairstyle, lifestyle.
Everything connects to form a person’s unique identity.
We aim to do free, boundaryless work that supports this “holistic design.”
■ So that you can live more freely and comfortably
When people see me wearing bold clothes and think,
“Oh, this kind of freedom is allowed.”
“I’m allowed to choose what I like more.”
—that alone makes me happy.
Hairstyles, fashion, life choices.
When you choose based on your own “likes,” your happiness will always increase.
I work as a hairdresser to support that.
And from here on, I want to be someone who can design not only your hair, but your way of living — including your clothing.
