Being a Muslim minority country, it is quite difficult to find a Muslimah-friendly salon in Japan since most salons are with male staff or worry about the kinds of products used. However, the need for beauty, such as hair cuts, hair treatments, head spas, and more, leads some salons in Japan to offer Muslimah-friendly services.
*Please note that you need to make a reservation in advance for each salon (please refer to each salon’s individual website/link).
