DAMDEE TOKYO HAIR LOUNGE 上野本店
This salon has built a strong reputation for careful, high-quality work at affordable prices, with a team of many young stylists whose technique is genuinely solid. Hibiki, a stylist whose appointment book never seems to empty, has a gift for understanding exactly what a returning client means by "the usual" and delivering a flawless finish every time. Kairi, still in a first year on the job, also earns high marks for both cutting skill and warm, attentive service. Popular extras include a post-cut shave and a head spa so relaxing that guests often drift off into a deep sleep before they know it. Set in the Ueno main branch in Taito, Tokyo, the salon is rounded out by a clean, stylish interior that adds to its appeal.
