Browsing “Hairstylist”

"This year has been full of growth and change for me. I’m learning how to let go of things I’ve outgrown, because to move forward, you have to release what no longer serves you.”

“I’ve been a hairstylist for a couple of decades, and many of my clients are like friends or even family to me now. In fact, I met my lovely wife when I was hairdressing!”

“Once, my customer couldn't decide what colour she wanted to dye her hair, so she chose to dye it like a rainbow—literally a bit of  every colour that she wanted!”

“My wife and I run a hair salon together and we’ve been married for 22 years! We’re also into fashion and inspire each other to constantly refresh our styles. Many couples become strangers with time simply because they don’t have anything in common, so it’s important that we share the same interests."

“I’m a hairstylist from Tokyo and I run a private hair salon in Singapore. Many of my customers here are cosplayers who go for bright coloured hair, which is my favourite hairstyle to work on as I love the bright and colourful Harajuku fashion culture.”

“I was a hairstylist for 10 years back in Tokyo where I’m from, but I’ve wanted to work overseas since I was a student. When my boss offered me a chance to cut hair in Singapore, I had to say yes.”

“A recent hair trend I’ve noticed is earloop highlights that frame your face.”

“The funniest Singlish phrase to me is “Where got?””

“The craziest hairstyle I’ve done for someone was something very colourful—like a galaxy.”

“I was in London before moving to Singapore, so the most challenging thing has been the weather—it’s too hot!”

“I’d like to travel more frequently if I could—my favourite things when travelling are food and shopping!”

“If I could time travel, I’d like to experience the 1940s, specifically during World War 2. I want to understand what war is really like and the cruelty that happened during that time.”
