{Mind-blowing Hair Cut}

We had yet another amazing day today!

For me it was fulfilling one of the things i wanted to try at least once in my life. Actually after this once, i want to do it more often!!

I had my first hair-experience in Tokyo! If u ever visit this place n u r not sure what to do, GO EXPERIENCE a haircut in Japan!! It's just so different!! They look into every detail n handle ur hair with such great care it really amazes me. Even just to pay for a wash n blow, it's worth it!

And u know what? It cost less than what i spend in Singapore!

Why is it so different?

1. B4 they even start coloring, they put on small shower-cap like plastic to cover ur ears.

2. They apply some sculp protecting treatment on ur head - so cool right. Singapore they don't do it unless u pay for a sculp treatment.

3. When they color ur hair, they r so gentle at handling it, u can barely feel them doing anything to it.

4. They don't just apply once n mess up ur face with spots of dye. They r extremely careful that not one spot is on ur face n colors it in stages. In between, they even have this steamer that works like a hair dryer. When they did, i really felt it was a total hair pampering experience.

5. Wait till u sit on the chair to rinse off the shampoo. It reclines with a touch of a button!

6. Oh my! here's the best part. They cover ur face with a good quality tissue. N the best hair washing experience begins. I was so relaxed i could sleep!! It's not like our regular head massage n hair wash in Singapore.

The way they do it is so different but oh so good!!!! I really can't describe it. Even the way she lifts ur head is amazing. She does it such that u feel she's placing her finger tips at the right pressure points... Wah... Really unexpected!

7. When all is done, they use this hot towel to press on the side of ur face to soak up the dripping water. But more than it's purpose, it feels really good!! Then just when u thought that's it, the ultimate happens. She lifts up ur head so gently n puts the hot towel down. When ur neck touches the hot towel, it's an ultimate meltpoint. I never knew a simply thing like hot towel would make such a big difference.

8. Even the way they dry ur hair is like a skilled massage therapy. Then when ur hair is no longer dripping wet, the chair moves back into the upright position.

This hair-washing experience alone was totally mind-blowing!! My description totally underdescribes how wonderful it is.

9. Finally, she takes so much care at cutting, i totally respect the way she makes my hair feel pampered n respected ;) lol

After the cut, i love it!!!

And the best part. Coz I am R's friend, i enjoyed a super big discount!!! I really paid very little for this completely amazing experience.

Thanks R for bringing me there. And our very patient husbands n R's two wonderful kids!!!

This experience makes me realise Jap stylist really know how to treat ur hair n gives u an ultimate hair experience. It's not just about the cut, it's the whole process.

Oh yes, they even provided child care service for one of their clients with a nice lil child-care corner.

Service begins right when we arrived. They take ur bag n keep it in a room so u don't have to worry about it during ur time with them.

No words can describe it well enough. Go try it for yourself!!!
