For anyone wanting this done in Japan I highly recommend going to a local salon. They won't speak English but the service tends to be A LOT cheaper.... English speaking salons can sometimes charge extortionate amounts so be careful! 💕
my local salon near Mount Fuji talked to me about getting the straight perm. The girl next to me got it but the chemicals smell so strong and kinda irritated my eyes but damn her hair sparkled like a glittery waterfall. How damaging is this truly? I mean those chemicals did not smell gentle.
@@eri7-11 I had this perm done maybe twice a year for around 5 years! And I never had any damage~ the chemical does smell very strong (and your hair will smell like that for a few weeks maybe) but they always check very carefully throughout the process that your hair is ok~
Having a stylist that understands their client's hair and needs is absolutely priceless and makes the experience worth it. Hold on to them and never let them go!
Not really. I've been around violinists who carry million dollar bows. Especially because they're harder to sell than something like gold jewelry which has a value when melted down, and generally aren't worn in a manner that tears, like earrings.
@@TheDeathMongrel I think you are talking of theft? That is surely a part (more nightly burglar than someone storming the shop though), but I personally was more thinking about accidents. Like he sits down and the bag slips and all the scissors go "crack". Probably too sturdy even with a single one, but still I have that feeling.
@@steemlenn8797 Yup, was thinking more theft. Still, on the subject of accidental or careless damage, I don't find it scary because when people have such overly expensive tools, they don't usually get careless with them--rather they're overprotective, if anything. I'd guess the bag was well-tested, but if not, there will be a lesson to be learned :) Cheers!
I love what they did. Miku really enjoys his job, you can tell. Cathy, my hair is also naturally curly and frizzes in humid air. Lol. You're not the only one. :) Ugh, I have a lot of hair and the weight of it pulls most of the curls out... but I'm getting my hair cut short for the hotter months. I haven't done that in a while. lol.
Wow the way Miku-san and other hairdresser treat your hair is so careful and soft.. Also the custom treatments are amazing. They really take good care of their customer's hair!
I used to have long hair and could straighten it, but now I am 37 and have been losing it for like a decade lol, it's rather short now. I really liked my long hair back in the day.
I have very similar hair texture to Cathy Cat's and I really hope I can try out that Japanese straightening treatment because I've seen it before and it looks so good!! Beats having to straighten my hair EVERY SINGLE DAY!!
Please do your research people! Although it might do wonders for some people, it's not for everyone, and everyone should be aware of the risks of Japanese straight perm. I've read many comments under TH-cam videos where people with curly hair got their hair messed up permanently. They used to have beautiful curls, but after the straight perm, their hair wasn't the same even after its regrowth. Some people I know (non-Asian and Asian friends) got it. Some had a good experience with it and others, unfortunately, messed up their hair. 😥 (I've been in Japan for almost 5 years in total now.)
It's 5am here in Prague. I'm a straight man. Why did I watch this ? 😄 In fairness, I'd go just to try out that machine ! I dread to think how much that haircut cost 😳 But I'm a paid up Ask Japanese supporter, so I guess in some way I helped to pay a tiny bit of it. Btw Cathy, it reminds me of your UK look for some reason. Director San : great job filming in a small space with people all around you
straight hair looks great on you Cathy! just wondering if you've tried the curly girl method for your hair? seems like lots of people with "frizzy" hair might actually have naturally curlier hair than they realize!
Everytime I go to Japanese Salon, I feel like I'm some kind of Royalty😂 with all the services it is all worth it and love the head massages...and you don't have to give a TIP ♥️
I tried long hair a long while back, but my blond waves were way more pronounced than even Cathy's and might have looked cute on a girl, but definitely not me. Also had the hair dresser wash my hair once and man that was so relaxing.
about those scissors, there are cheaper one's that are just fine as well, to me the main point they have is ... u can use them forever, i got a pair of like 150€ scissors a long time ago, like 20+ years ago and never done anything to it, even used them for other stuff like ... where is the nail clipper? ah whatevs ... despite that, they are still working just fine, so worth buying.
Cathy cat you look amazing with and without make up! But with this haircut (level 1000 quality) you are just glowing! When i come To Japan i can only wish To meet you! Coming from Canada i look at all your tips and trick to make my vacation there better and have luck with the ladies ;) keep the awesome content coming! You are such job to listen to and at thé same time you give us réality check. That art necessary! Also Nice french speaking!
Permanent hair straightening is NOT going to cure frizzy hair..it's gonna make it worse with more chemicals!! I have very wavy hair and it's not frizzy coz I wash it every 6-7days and blow-dry to a minimum if at all, and I plait it so it waves up nice too. It USED to be frizzy and look terrible back when I dyed my hair and straightened it, now people are always telling me I have lovely thick hair. Also, your hair will look amazing if you layer it too if you feel it's too thick, get layers (not graduated layers - the other type).
The outcome is awesome! The staff looks so nice, and it seems sooo relaxing I want to cut my hair soon and during the whole video I was like " Pleaaase do mine next, do mine next !! " ^^
That looks like a very luxurious experience. I am a guy so I don't want to get it done. But I am curious how much all that cost. I couldn't really work it out from their website as I don't actually know what's been done. Would have been cool to get a price and length of time just to date my curiosity. If anyone has any idea let me know.
Just checked their website... so CHEAP!! Hopefully japan opens up soon so I can get my hair done! Tired of American shops charging $200 for a wash cut and blow lol
Does anyone there speak English? I really want to find a good hair saloon in Tokyo and this one looks so nice, but i don't really speak Japanese yet. Any recommendations? orz
It costs me less than 5 bux a year for shaving cream and razors and maybe 15 minutes a week to shave my own head. But I don't look as amazing as Cathy Cat. Bald is beautiful.
i'm not picky with my hair but i want to get this service too. my hair isn't pin straight but i don't want to damage it with heat when styling it. also bonus, no tipping! when i go to my salon i always have to tip :((
Has anyone tried the flaxseed gel thing? Totally gonna have a curly haired child just looking at husband's genes lol, not sure how to help my future child with curly hair!
Das Endergebnis sieht sooo schön aus 😍 Wie lange ging dein Friseurtermin und wieviel hast du ca. bezahlt? Freue mich für dich, dass du die Haare so schön hast. ☺💖 Meine Haare sehen wie dein "Vorher " aus plus Naturlocken die sich bilden. Einerseits feiere ich jede Locke anderseits sieht es bei mir schnell Kraus, trocken und wirr aus 🙈
I live in Japan and my friends who got it said that they paid between 35,000 yen and +50,000 yen for a straight perm. That'd be ~$300, +$450 US for one session.
I wish hairdressers over here would handle hair this gently instead of yanking a brush through it... I might just go back to a hair salon (been DIYing my hair for years).
The automatic hair washing machine looks cool but I would never allow them to use it on myself. I have corkscrew curls and I can already imagine how tangled my hair would get if I used that machine.

It's worth it! Not sure what it costs now but I was getting this done when I lived there in 2006 and it was $100 while you could get it in the US for $500!

This is the permanent hair straightening that you have to grow out right? And then touch up the new growth? Your whole image and face seems to look different with the new haircut and styling.
Die haben aber n gutes stück abgeschnitten neh :D Sieht aber mega aus! Ich wünschte das gäbe es hier in deutschland auch, dann würde ich das SOFORT machen lassen!
Many women would pay to have natural curly hair. And you just straightend them. But since I also have natural curly hair, look at the photo ~1year no cutting, its more a pain in the ass as it has benefits. During corona I cut it down myself to 5mm. So much easier and cheaper!!
Which hairstyle for Cathy is cute for you?????
Whichever one makes her happy.
You’re awesome!
i'd always wanted to try this when i was younger, but as i get older, i dont knpw i it's safe for a black person's hair.
"Maybe shes born with it"...
"Maybe its a Japanese dude!"
Keep it natural, wild and wavy. Straightened hair looks like it has been licked.

Does it work with humid hair?
You're right! 😂❤️

Am I the only one who finds it... a bit scary that the little scissor bag he carries on his side is worth more than the car Cathy came in?

Quit thinking in terms of costs like he is personally attached to it. I'm sure he is in a way but at the end of the day it's a business expense.
My Japanese Woodworking Tools are more worth then my car lol
You look like a Princess while the 2 guys were doing your hair at the same time ;D heheh~
Your hair looks so beautiful!
This place looks beyond amazing, it’s literally so pretty and you can tell they are completely professional

I wonder if they would know how to handle what’s left of my hair. They seem so much more careful than here in the states.
I feel you 🥲 I have the same frezzy/poofy hair that just hates humidity
Always wanted to say thank you for this video ♥️
I’m that russian girl who take the recommendation and came to Miku-san, it was so sooooo lovely 😊❤️🔥
The hair looks great. That seems like a really good hairdresser. I am glad that you are happy :)
Wavy hair is just cool as straight hair. Will admit, the japanese are so good at making hair straight.
Nah, curly hair is where it’s at
@@callmechris1131 Nope. Every hair is cool. Curly, Wavy or Straight. We may have preferences for ourself and partners but all of them look good.
So pretty and silky! But tbh I liked your poofier, natural hair better, it was cuter!
Looks so nice. I wanna experience such a amzing shampoo😁
So beautiful!!! Ready for live!!
Please do your research people!

They’re so gentle with her hair 😭 you and only hope and wish for this in the states.
As a guy I could never stand getting a hair cut that takes longer than 20 minutes. They did a great job and you look really happy.
i get u
Cathy looks great either way but I never knew that a lot of work goes into making hair look straight

Watching your NHK show now! So excited for you!

The After Cathy Cat has more filters for sure :)
The automatic hair washer thingy looks so weird and interesting.
3:02 I know Cathy loves Sci Fi but now it looks like she's in a sci fi story
Dude! I just went to this salon and it was amazing! Got a discount because of you! I def recommend them! Mikku was super nice!
Everytime I go to Japanese Salon, I feel like I'm some kind of Royalty😂 with all the services it is all worth it and love the head massages...and you don't have to give a TIP ♥️
I actually like Cathy's crazy hair.
I tried long hair a long while back, but my blond waves were way more pronounced than even Cathy's and might have looked cute on a girl, but definitely not me.
Also had the hair dresser wash my hair once and man that was so relaxing.
Rachel (of "Rachel and Jun" fame) did this years ago, and it did eventually grow out. Now she's trying the Curly Girl Method...
Consider using oleplex. It will really help keep your hair soft and less damaged.
あなたの新しい髪は本当に綺麗いですね🌸
Will visit this salon in the future! Thanks Cathy🤗👍
It looks so good!
about those scissors, there are cheaper one's that are just fine as well, to me the main point they have is ... u can use them forever, i got a pair of like 150€ scissors a long time ago, like 20+ years ago and never done anything to it, even used them for other stuff like ... where is the nail clipper? ah whatevs ... despite that, they are still working just fine, so worth buying.
CathyCat's hair always looks great, even when it's being fluffy.
How long did it take for the whole thing?
Very cool Cathy CAtttttt.
You have lots of great hairstyles and accessories
That looked relaxing.

Before/Afterで全然ちゃう。めちゃめちゃカワイイ。
God! That machine of washing hair that must be something stunning!
Sorry if this has already been asked, What type of shampoo & conditioner must you use on your hair after the Japanese straightening process?
I need to go! Lol no one has ever done my hair properly
That is pretty cool. Must be expensive. Your hair would look amazing in any style: short or long, wavy or straight
Miku is so awsome with hair👍👍👍✂✂✂✂
Wow. So beautiful!
Cathy Cat! YOU ROCK! ❣️ 💕 💞
Looks good
5:20 those who know, know
Yo, yo, yo
i want to know too ;
Me:" AIO, what a cool name." CC:" ...at A 10." Me:" ...."
I wish i could potentially transfer my cosmetology license (about to get soon) to Japan if I ever decide to move there from America. 😭

fantastic, made me fall in love all over again :-) x
