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

Anyone can face trouble with their hair at any time in life. It might be hair loss or thinning, dandruff, or hair dull. There are many reasons for those situations. The main factors that we can list are age, genetics, hormonal imbalances, and diet.

While some factors are out of our control like genes or aging, we definitely still can do something with our nutrition diet to help improve hair conditions. Here are some advices from our experts.

1. Protein. 

Hair is primarily made of a protein called keratin. To maintain strong and healthy hair, ensure you have enough protein in your daily nutrition plan.
 
Meat (like chicken, turkey, beef, …) is rich in nutrition that might aid hair growth. Red meat even contains a type of iron that helps the red blood cells deliver oxygen to all cells in the body, including hair follicles.

However, there is one thing to keep in mind overconsumption of red meat might lead to other risks to health.

2. Omega-3

Fatty fish like salmon, sardines, and mackerel, … are excellent sources of Omega-3. Omega-3 fatty acids provide oil that keeps hair and scalp hydrated. Unfortunately, our body can’t produce omega-3 by itself, therefore it is important to obtain it through our diet.
 

3. Vitamin A, E & C.

While vitamin A is needed for our body to produce sebum – an oily substance that provides natural for a healthy scalp, vitamin E provides protection for hair and skin from damage from sunlight. Vitamin C is an antioxidant and aids the absorption of iron.
 
Vitamins A, E & C can be easily found in sweet potatoes, sweet peppers, oranges, spinach, bean, avocado, and berries, … It is great that we don’t need to pay so much to get the right food for healthy hair.

4. Biotin

Biotin and protein are nutrients that are essential for hair growth. Research has shown that a lack of biotin can cause brittle hair and may lead to hair loss. You can find this important nutrient in egg yolk, whole grains, liver, and soy flour.

Like the skin, hair and scalp condition can reflect our inside health. Let's eat a correct balance of nutrients that are good for hair, including protein, omega-3, vitamins and minerals. Once hair is supplied with all that it needs, it will become shiny, strong and lustrous.

A healthy hair is a beautiful hair. And a healthy lifestyle is best for not only our hair, our body but our mind also.




   

 

A hairdryer is an appliance that was invented by a France stylist back in 1890. This small hand-held device gives us huge convenience as it helps to shorten the process of drying hair. Nowadays, it has become popular and necessary in our daily routine, especially for busy people.

As hair stylists, we work with hair dryers every day. Unfortunately, we have encountered that there are many misunderstandings about hair dryers. In this article, we will explain the fact about hair dryers.

The most common question about hair dryers we have received from our customers is: “Do hair dryers damage my hair?”
The short answer is “No”.

The fact is that if you just leave your wet hair to be naturally dried by itself, the inside of the hair inflates when saturated with water for long time periods. Therefore, the natural drying process will make the hair become prone to be breakable and harmful to your scalp. It even rises the risk of sickness to you, especially for those who sleep with wet hair.

There are many benefits of using a hair dryer that we could list below:

• It is a time saver.
• It makes your hair become shiny and smooth.
• It helps to pump up hair volume.
• It is a great tool for styling your hair, especially to curly hair without the need of going hair salon.
   

Therefore, as hair stylists, we always strongly recommend our customers to use the hair dryer. In that way, they would be able to maintain good hair condition and self-styling their hair look at their own comfortable home.

However, there are a few things you need to keep in mind before and while using a hair dryer.

1. Before drying, you need to make sure that your hair is moisturized by applying hair products like hair oil.Here are some hair oils that are most popular and preferred by MICHAELA’s stylists:

2. Choose the right hair dryer for your hair type.

If your hair is damaged, it’s fragile. Therefore, you need a hair dryer that has a great heat control setting. It is because applying too much heat to damaged hair would worsen the problem.

If you have curly hair, you should use a diffuser that is usually included with most hair dryers nowadays. It will help to distribute airflow more evenly.  

If you have thick/ coarse hair, we recommend you use a higher-wattage hairdryer to dry it faster. Thick or coarse hair is usually stronger and can withstand more heat while drying.

For thin/ fine hair, it is great to use a concentrator nozzle. Because it adds volume to your hair.

3. Drying steps.

Firstly, use a tower to dry the excess water from the hair.

Apply hair oil or hair milk. This is important as it will keep your hair moisturized and easier to shape hair into style.

Start dry from the hair root, then to the middle to the end of the hair. This sequent will help to create the volume.

Make the movement as much as possible while drying to avoid overheating to hair and scalp.

Whenever you think of a makeover of your hair, color is usually a first thought.

Nowadays with the development of hair color technology, you have in hand many choices of color. But in terms of types of hair dyes, there are two basic options: normal hair color and organic hair color.

But what is the difference between those two types of hair dye? Please keep reading to learn the science behind hair color.
 

1. Ingredients.
Normal hair dye is expertly formulated and precise. The main ingredients contained are ammonia, alcohol, hydrogen peroxide & pigment.

By another hand, organic hair dye is made from natural ingredients. It doesn’t contain chemicals found in typical hair color.  Rosemary and orange are the most popular ingredients found in organic color.
 
Anyway, please take note that it is not all organic color is 100% organic. In order to keep color last long, some chemicals are still required. 

At Hair Salon MICHAELA, we use 100% organic herbal hair color.
Please see more details here: 100% Organic Color

2. How do the colors work?

Another difference between normal hair dye and organic hair dye is the mechanism of action.

Normal hair dye uses ammonia to open the cuticle and penetrate the hair shaft. In this way, the color will last longer.

 Unlike synthetic hair color, ingredients of organic color don’t penetrate the hair shaft and don’t affect the hair’s porosity. Therefore, it is a better and healthier option, especially for those who have concerns about their sensitive scalp.
 
3. Advantages and Disadvantages?
Normal hair colors last longer than organic colors. It also can be used to create almost any effect, even dramatic lightening color while organic color usually limits your choice with dark tones.

But unfortunately, using normal hair color can cause your hair damage by making it porous and prone to breakage. The hair might look dry and brittle.

A great advantage of organic color is your hair will stay natural and gentle looking. In fact, some of the ingredients used in organic color dyes can protect your hair and make it stronger and healthier. It also allows users to avoid allergically. By using organic color, you also help to reduce releasing dangerous chemicals into the environment. 

4.Our recommendation.
In Hair Salon MICHAELA, we introduce both normal and organic hair colors. It’s because we want to deliver as many choices to customers as possible.
 
It depends on your need and preferences to choose the hair color. 

In general, we would recommend an organic color to customers who have sensitive scalps or concerns about hair health, or those who want to fully commit to the organic life style.

Otherwise, if you are into fashion or do not have much time to go back hair salon frequently, the normal hair color is more suitable for you.

We care about not only your hair’s appearance but also its health. Also, our stylists are always here for you with sincere consultation to find out what type of color is most suitable for you. We believe that a good salon is a place that not only provides hair services but delivers care to customers’ feelings and lifestyle, also the responsibility to our environment.
 

Good day everyone.
This is Kenta from Hair Salon MICHAELA in Singapore. Thank you for your support all the time.

In this article, I would like to share with you my thought regarding the discount rate in the hair salon.
 

If you have at least visited a hair salon once, you should be encountered to receive any discount regardless you are the first timer or a repeat customer. What do you think about those discounts for the hair salon? 

Obviously, we can easily realize that the hair salon’s discount rate is much higher than other services for the first-timer. Have you ever wondered why it is? The answer is because of the nature of hair services.

As your hair constantly grows, maintaining its look and condition is always necessary. And it’s the best choice to have a preferred salon and stylist who have been working long enough with your hair to understand its specific conditions. Therefore, the customers usually come back to the same place and stylist to take care of their hair. The number of customers who change their stylist frequently is quite low.
For that reason, it is very important for Hair salons to attract customers, do their best to win their hearts on the very first-time visit, and then retain them. The STRATEGIE started with a DISCOUNT RATE.

ATTRACTIVE DISCOUNT => ATTRACT CUSTOMERS => WIN THEIR HEARTS => RETAIN THEM.


MICHAELA also has a discount for 1st timers, which is either to get a 10% DISCOUNT for all hair services or enjoy complimentary SODA SPA (worth $30).
That’s not all yet. We also have a DISCOUNT of UP TO 10% for newly launched services or products to encourage customers to try them. 

As a CEO, my mindset is “TO COMMIT THE FAITHFUL TO OUR ALL CUSTOMERS”. We value not only new customers but also existing customers who keep supporting us.



We also built up the MEMBERSHIP PROGRAMS AND PRIVILEGES, which customers can join free of charge and enjoy up to 10% discount once they become Platinum members by spending just $600 a year.
In addition, we also have prepared the package plan.

We keep the discount rate for all plans to not exceed 10% for the same reason: “TO COMMIT THE FAITHFUL TO OUR ALL CUSTOMERS”.
We understand that customers might have some common concerns about the extremely huge discount and question the reason for it. At MICHAELA, we commit to a transparent price, to make it a win-win rate for both sides – the salon and the customers. 
 
We believe that it is our faith in customers to keep the original price at the best as long as possible, so whenever there is a promotion available, you can be sure that it is not a fake or misleading discount but be real and believable.


We are specialized in Perm and Treatment. Recently we try to improve the scalp care service too. These are popular with customers, please give them a try at least once.
