Amazing Japanese salon between Clarke Quay and Boat Quay - Komorebi by MASHU
It has been so long since I've been so excited to share something with you guys. One of Japan's popular hair salon's MASHU, with 10 branches in Osaka, has opened a branch here in Singapore! MASHU has styled models, celebrities and of course, Japanese hair for many years and I'm so happy you don't have to travel to Osaka to get incredible hair!I was invited to try their services and I was NOT disappointed. Everything was perfect and service was top notch Japanese style!
Entrance of Komorebi by MASHU - super cute drawings.
From the moment I stepped in staff were all smiles and greeted me cheerfully. Was offered a few drinks I could pick from and I settled for peppermint tea. Had some Japanese snacks served to go along with it which kept me through the whole process!
(Also spot the 50% off scalp therapy for new customers! Looks interesting, would like to try that next time.)
Stylist for the day is Toko-san. Told her that I wanted my fringe shorter, my hair trimmed and to dye my hair a lighter brown with a tinge of pink.
Here's my hair BEFORE
Roots were growing out, it was a very ugly yellow sheen.
Super dry :( and I don't mean the brand.
After analyzing my hair, Toko-san got to work. Looks like I cut off quite a length, huh?
Then it came to choosing which shade I wanted for my hair.
Was choosing between pink or baby link (didn't bleach my hair so it wouldn't be so bright which is the top colour). So I was expecting the shade below it.
So many different types of dyes to pick and mix! Leave it to the pros.
Dye looks really pink right? Was anticipating what the final product would be.
When it was time for a wash, I was brought to the sink area, and the seats are incredibly comfortable! Many customers are known to have fallen asleep there.
OMG the head massage during the hair wash was SO GOOD. There were accupressure points that were pressed, gentle circular moments to release the tension and some magic fingers (haha) to improve blood circulation.
There was also a soda treatment thereafter to allow a deeper penetration of products, if you've never tried it you have to! It's like a mist over your hair, softening and strengthening while cleaning thoroughly.
Japanese pride in the smallest things, there was also a hot towel placed at the back of my neck for ultimate shiok (aka kimochiiii) factor. My favourite part of going to the salon is always the part where they wash my hair.
Treatment on my hair was also applied here!
Currently, Komorebi by MASHU is running a CNY promotion (more on that later) and treatment uses products from Arimino! Arimino is a Japanese brand that has been in the market for over 65 years and many local salons in Singapore have also raved about it before. These products made my hair feel so moisturized and smooth!
One differentiating factor about Komorebi by MASHU is their Mother Earth Treatment, using products by Mother Earth!
Mother Earth is an all-natural range of hair products made in Kochi, Japan which specialises in reducing hair fall and repairing damaged hair. Mother Earth was started 10 years ago when MASHU stylists in Japan wanted to create the perfect formula to create the most ideal scalp and hair condition and can be used every day! Ingredients include Jojoba seed oil, Korean Ginseng, pomegranate and more.
"98% of customers experience less hair loss by getting back their regular hair growth cycle!"
Products are also sold at the salon if you like how your hair feels after everything is done ;) I didn't get to try this but looking forward to the next time!
After the wash and blow dry, here's the final result:
What do you think? My hair was really silky smooth, if you don't believe me, take a look at the picture below.
Looks like a professional model's hair right? Haha, but this is how my hair looks like from the back! It is slightly layered because of how hot Singapore is, and I love the length and sheen! Can you spot the tinge of pink which is different from red?
Front view again!! Colour is bright and festive, perfect for CNY. Those sharp eyed would realise that my eyebrows are also a bit lighter! Toko-san suggested I dye them slightly since my hair colour was so light and I agreed.
A not so chinese new year photo. Haha! I am soooo happy with how my hair turned out! It has been some time since my hair looked so healthy and shiny.
In conjunction with Chinese New Year, Komorebi by Mashu would like to give you some savings!
