Japanese Hair salon in Singapore <Hair Salon MICHAELA in Singapore>

Hello, this is receptionist Clara from Hair Salon Tokyo MICHAELA. 

 

Did you know, at MICHAELA, we provide not only English but Japanese hardcopy magazines for both men and women?

In Singapore, the only place that carries a wide range of Japanese magazines would be Kinokuniya Bookstore. And sadly, Kinokuniya stores are closed like MICHAELA as part of the ongoing Circuit breaker till 4th May until further notice. But they do have their webstore open! 

 

Today's topic will be about 6 Japanese womens magazines that we MICHAELA subscribe to monthly. 

 

With today's technology, everything is more convenient. Language barrier is no more a problem when you can now translate web pages on the spot via Google Chrome browser. (But only for online contents, not the scans!)
