For hotel concierges, guest relations teams and their guests. Hairmake Matching Inc. is the single point of contact for bookings at our English-speaking partner salon in Tokyo: makeup lessons during a stay, hair and makeup before a concert or dinner, portrait sessions and more.
Why makeup lessons in Japan, now
Travel has shifted from buying to experiencing, and more guests want to take home a skill rather than only a souvenir. Guests who discover Japanese and Korean makeup on social media want to learn, from a professional, how to recreate it on their own face. Enquiries from overseas guests for lessons and hair & makeup are increasing at our office.
What sets M’s apart
- The precision of Japanese makeup: skin preparation, dimension suited to each face, and finishes that last all day
- Attention to each guest: artists trained on set listen to features, lifestyle and wishes, and tailor the method
- Lessons and services in English: handled by our English-speaking artist. Other languages are supported with translation devices and apps
What we can arrange
- Private makeup lesson in English (90 min): makeup that suits the guest, a routine they can recreate at home, how to choose Japanese cosmetics
- K-pop idol-style, cosplay and transformation makeup: an authentic finish by working professionals
- Concerts, wedding guest, dinner and portrait sessions: hair and makeup for the occasion
- Men’s hair and makeup: from natural to styled
Services take place at our partner salon Hair Make Salon M’s (Takadanobaba, Tokyo; appointment only). All services and lessons are held at the salon.
