[Tried & Tested] Getting My Hair Pampered With Naoki Yoshihara By Ash

| |
Hi Huneybees,



I've recently been addicted to changing my hair colours. After doing the tie-dying and ombre hair ends, I'm now into the next phase for rainbow hair colours. Of course, this included alot of hair bleaching and even though the colours are nice, alot of maintenance is required at home.



But no matter how moisturising the shampoo or conditioner claims to be, nothing seems to be working well for me. Luckily, I had Naoki Yoshihara by Ash's help. 

Naoki Yoshihara by Ash is an authentic Japanese hair salon located in Liang Court, Singapore. I have been to many salons in Singapore, including international acclaimed one, but none can compare to what I have experienced at Naoki Yoshihara by Ash in terms of  the services and techniques.



When I first stepped into this salon, I was presently surprised by the politeness and gentleness of welcoming me. Even my stylist - Megu-san looked as though she stepped right out of the ViVi magazine. Totally in love with her style and how she did her hair.


As she just arrived in Singapore and not so proficient in English, the manager Kazutaka-san did the translation while Megu-san did the assessment on my hair and scalp as well as addressing to my other hair ncerns. So, it was decided that I get the Shiseido treatment. The products in the salon are from Japan and seeing the whole basket of items going to my hair, I knew my hair and scalp will be pampered.


Well, the treatment was mainly all done at the shampoo bar, and seeing that I have my makeup on, they took the initiative to have my face covered with a soft cloth, so that the water will not ruin my makeup. Nevertheless with Megu-san's delicate washing skills, I was rather at ease and were quite confident that my face wouldn't be wet even if I didn't have the cloth. 

Other than that, I was wrapped up with a towel, an anti-wet drape, and a fleece blanket to cover my legs. And as the treatment required me to lie there for almost an hour, Megu-san and her fellow stylist - Tsukasa-san made sure I was lying there comfortably and putting a towel and head support for me. It was definitely 100% service!


After the last step of treatment was done, I was back at my seat and Megu-san had my hair blown dry and she also curled the ends of my hair. She was very careful not to tug too hard and she kept asking if it was too hot.




Lastly, she also gave me a fringe to frame my face and it was a fresh change as I haven't had a fringe for agesありがとう Megu-san for making my hair so soft and alive again!


If you’re keen on your own authentic Japanese salon experience, do give Naoki Yoshihara by Ash a try.

First, we were treated to some local food and drinks at Fun Toast. Previously known as Kheng Nam Hong, the brand was renamed Fun with the Chinese Character 芳 in mind. Their signature menu includes homemade kaya butter soft buns, soya suace chicken, red cane leaf beverage and kopi...





For ladies who are looking to add a little more attention to their eyes, you will be glad to know about the Eye Studio Tokyo offers eyebrows, eye lashes, extensions and eye makeup using technology from Japan. If you always have problems getting your brows drawn right or tired of always having to apply mascara whenever you go out, you can give their services a try...



I love how natural the lashes look...
And just across, Naoki Yoshihara by Ash is there to help you relax and give your mane the pampering needed. ASH is a popular Japanese Hair Salon Brand which has over a hundred outlets in Japan. Naoki Yoshihara is the entry brand for Aisa which carries its founder's name.



For those who loves a little fragrance every where you go, or looking for organic soaps, there is SHEA on level 1. It is a body, skin and hair care store that specializes in products that are handmade and made from pure essential oils.

For fashion, Liang Court has also added in UNIQLO. As a popular brand now in Singapore, they have introduced some new additions to their line. The down jackets are now not only lightweight while providing warmth, they also come with a pouch where you can keep and carry the jacket in.




There's also new additions to their Heat Tech for ladies as well as introducing their top favourite Ultra Stretch Jeans. Well, even a ballerina could dance in, you know how comfy they are...




Last stop was Tonkotsu Kazan. Originating from Osaka, Japan, they are known for their tonkotsu (pork bone) broth and original noodles served in a kazan (volcanic) fashion to result in a flavour explosion. Established in 1966, they operate over 30 popular restaurant  franchises in Japan including Kangeki Tanuki and Marugen Ramen.
