Hello. I’m Tomoru Noda, a hairdresser from Japan. Recently, I’ve been having many customers from overseas. It makes me incredibly happy. My digital perm technique is top-level in Japan and even among the world’s best.

Of my overseas customers, from the United States is the most common. I also have customers from Mexico, the UK, Canada, France, Germany, and other countries.

I’m not fluent in perfect English, but I love people from overseas. I’m so happy you’ve come to Japan. You’re very welcome.
The English on this page was translated using a translation app. I apologize if there are any slightly misleading expressions or mistakes in my message. Please be understanding.

The most important thing in a hair salon is providing the best possible results for the customer.
You don’t need detailed conversation to provide a digital perm hairstyle. Why?

All I need to know is where you want the curls to start and how strong you want them to be.

I’m a professional, so that’s all I need.。

Knowing this allows us to assess your hair type, head shape, and hair growth pattern to offer you the most suitable design.

We have created an English-language introduction page for our international clients.

Please refer to it if you are considering visiting our salon.

We look forward to welcoming you.

Please download the LINE app. If you cannot do that, please send me a direct message on Instagram.

Please tell me all the dates during your stay in Japan when you can dedicate four hours to a hair salon. I will then tell you all the dates that are available for booking.

Once the date is set, we will then assess the condition of your hair. Your appointment will be confirmed once we determine that your hair is in good condition for a perm.

Before the treatment, we will conduct a consultation regarding your digital perm.
While we discuss your hair history and preferences when you make your reservation via LINE or Instagram, we will confirm everything again while examining your hair at the salon.

I can provide simple explanations in English. If you have any complex questions or concerns, you can show them to me using a translation app, and I will be able to assist you.

Things I want to ask clients getting a digital perm: The two main points are “How strong do you want the perm to be?” and “Where in your hair do you want the perm to start?”
Since permed hair is difficult to create complex shapes like those achieved with curling irons, these two points are all you need to consider. Keeping it simple is key to success.

Before shampooing, we apply a solution to remove excess coating from the hair.

This cleansing process allows the perm solution to penetrate more easily, minimizing hair damage.

This is my original, special technique.

Please note that shampooing for perm clients will be brief to allow sufficient time for the perm treatment.

We will perform a haircut suitable for digital perms.

We will trim any unevenness at the ends and any areas showing dryness or damage. Regarding the unique Asian cutting technique of thinning the hair, please rest assured that we will not perform it on those who do not need it. Thinning areas where the hair is thicker will make it easier to dry and style permed hair beautifully.

We will also adjust the layer cut to suit digital perms.
Please feel free to let us know if you have a preferred bangs style.

We use perming solutions tailored to each customer’s hair type. The process of applying the perming solution is extremely important. If the selection and action of the solution are incorrect, the perm will not be successful, resulting only in significant damage.

At our salon, we use alkaline, neutral, and acidic solutions, selecting the appropriate solution based on the condition of your hair. This allows us to create bouncy perm curls while minimizing damage to your hair.

This is a unique technique that allows perming solution to penetrate the hair while minimizing damage to the hair cuticles.
*Please note that perming is not damage-free; it involves some stress to change the shape of the hair. This is not a treatment that causes absolutely no damage to the hair.

After rinsing out the perm solution, we move on to the intermediate treatment.

After applying the perm solution, the cuticles of the hair become softer than usual, making it easier for the treatment to penetrate.

At our salon, we see this as an opportunity for nourishment and repair, and we generously replenish and repair your hair with nutrients.

The treatment is included in the menu price, so there is no need to purchase it separately.

At Noda Salon, we use a large number of rods to wrap around the hair, creating bouncy and glossy perm curls.
While this requires more than twice the number of rods used in typical salons, and therefore takes longer, this meticulous process is crucial for creating bouncy and glossy curls.
Using a small number of rods can lead to uneven curls and unnecessary damage to the hair, so we use a large number of rods to provide the most beautiful results possible.

After the digital perm heating is complete and the rods are removed, the hair dries and becomes curly.

This may look surprising, but it’s not over yet.

I’ll say it again because it’s important: it’s not over yet.

It’s common for salons to apply the second solution without removing the rods, and there’s nothing wrong with that.

At our salon, we ensure the hair is completely dry to prevent uneven perm results. This is a key point in providing accurate digital perms, so we remove the rods, even though it takes a few minutes.

At our salon, we pay meticulous attention to setting perm curls. We use a gentle type of perm solution that gradually penetrates the hair to set the curls, and we generously apply double the amount of solution to ensure even coverage.

The perm solution used for setting the curls generally does not damage the hair. On the contrary, if there are areas where the solution is not applied, it will cause significant damage to the hair and the perm will quickly fall out.

Therefore, this final step is extremely important.

At our salon, we take the extra step of re-wrapping the hair with a different perm rod. Applying the solution while the hair is still wrapped prevents the curls from becoming loose and weak, making it easier to recreate bouncy curls.

We will thoroughly explain the drying method so that you can properly dry your hair at home. We will explain it logically and clearly, as many times as needed, so please don’t worry.

Even if you don’t remember the method on the day, we will provide you with instructional materials that you can review at home.

While drying, twist your hair, and finally, cup it in your palms to create a spring-like shape and continue drying. You can sleep with it like that at night, and in the morning, simply loosen your hair to finish.

The only styling product you need is your favorite hair oil. Our customers have praised this method, saying that they rarely need to fix their bedhead in the morning.

After drying, apply hair oil or similar product and loosen your hair to finish.

We will also explain home care methods and maintenance tips to help you enjoy your hairstyle for a long time during your appointment.

We understand that it may be difficult to remember everything in one visit, so please rest assured that we will provide you with an instruction manual that you can refer to at home.
