| Getting your hair done these days is no mere cut-and-dry affair. After all, it's your hair and finding the right salon is a must, whether you're health- or trend-conscious.
In Nakano-sakaue, La fille's astute staff offer an extensive range of hair care products at reasonable prices. Their henna treatment adds a natural glow and strength to your hair for 6,000 yen to 8,000 yen. La fille's straight perm relaxes kinky curls and transforms dry, frizzy hair into smooth, straight locks. For those perplexed about embarrassing scalp problems such as dandruff or hair loss, you can now alleviate that itch with a heavenly experience. For 3,500 yen, you don a cap and lie on a electric-masseur bed while your head is massaged. While you relax to ambient music for 30 minutes, an infrared ray warms your scalp and cleanses the pores. If you crave more than just hair treatment, CARITA esthetics (7,000 yen) is the way to go. In this facial and body treatment, you're ensconced in sunflower seed paste for an hour-long, deep pore cleansing experience that removes the dead skin cells. Sunflower seed paste a little too daunting? Then check out Salon de Noble in Roppongi instead. Armed with two English- and one French-speaking staff, they have been catering to countless foreigners for 20 years. To put the salon-phobic at ease, these veritable hair consultants spend time counseling the customer to grasp the exact style desired. Just like La fille, Salon de Noble's products are all skin-friendly. They also offer mud masking (5,000 yen to 6,000 yen) for wholesome scalp and hair cleansing, if you're not in a rush. After a visit to one of these salons, you'll be ready to dazzle and delight in Tokyo afresh. La fille: 2-36-14 Chuo, Nakano-ku, open from 10 am to 8 pm (last reservation: 7:15 pm, Tel. 3369-9889) Salon de Noble: Gordy Bldg. 2Fl., 6-8-8 Roppongi Minato-ku, open from 11:30 am to 9 pm on weekdays. 10:30 am to 8 pm Saturdays and holidays, closed Sundays (3479-3749) |
