Naoki Yoshihara by Ash has second salon at Orchard, and third outlet opening Nov in Tampines! See promo for 20% discount




Sometimes before you travel overseas, you want to get your hair nicely done. I had asked my friend Renzze to recommend me a good stylist from her regular salon Naoki Yoshihara by Ash at Liang Court. She has jaw-droppingly amaaazing curls and colours. Anyway, the salon contacted me and told me they had a second branch now at International Building, which I could try.



Komachi at International Building #02-03/04
They have taken over Komachi on the second floor (opposite ANZ Bank), and will eventually change the name. The salon decor is a bit different here: Stark monotones rule in an almost masculine atmosphere. It's balanced by some flowers and a black chandelier.


At Naoki Yoshihara's second branch (still called Komachi for now)
There's that black chandelier, me doing an arm workout taking a selfie with the heavy 5D MkIII, and the guy who would cut and colour my hair, Shinya Ikumi.

I had been growing my hair out since Jan 2013 (it was a short bob then). I didn't cut it for a long time. As you can see, it was getting a bit unruly and bottom heavy. Shinya layered my tresses, trimmed the excesses, and gave me more volume on top.

As for colour, he advised me not to go too light, and gave me duo tones at the bottom for more dimension.


Ready to step out
Tada! This is the final result. But it actually got better after I left the salon.

At lunchtime an hour later, the temporary curls had softened nicely.


I'm glad I didn't bleach it
At home, the hair still felt light and soft. I'm glad I didn't bleach it.

I love the new hair, and I am getting compliments for it, like never before. Sometimes it's a bit funny, it's as if people have just noticed that, "Hey, you have long hair now! Very nice!"

So many thanks to my stylist!
