Q. Can you communicate in languages other than Japanese or English?
Yes.
At our salon, we use translation apps to communicate with clients who speak any language.
Please feel free to visit us without worrying about language barriers.
Q. Can you work with hair types other than Japanese?
Absolutely.
We have experience working with a wide variety of hair types and cultural backgrounds from around the world.
If you have any concerns, feel free to contact us in advance. We will explain everything thoroughly.
Q. Do I need a skin test before coloring, perming, or straightening?
At Hairdresser TAKA, we apply chemicals in a way that minimizes direct contact with your scalp.
However, some ingredients may still cause allergic reactions in about 2% of cases.
We recommend a free skin (patch) test at our salon at least one week before your appointment. It takes about 10 minutes.
Please note that if you skip the test and experience skin issues, we cannot be held responsible.
If you’d like to take the test, feel free to contact TAKA.
Q. What kind of clothing should I avoid wearing to the salon?
You’ll wear a protective gown, so your clothes won’t get dirty.
But for a more comfortable experience, we recommend:
- A collarless top with a clear neckline (helps with design and comfort during shampoo)
- Avoid white or special clothes (to prevent accidental staining)
Q. How long does each service take?
– Haircut: 1–2.5 hours
– Color only: 1.5–3 hours
– Cut + Color / Perm / Straightening: 2.5–6 hours
– Head Spa / Treatment only: 1–2 hours
Let us know in advance if you have time constraints.
