My name is Yuka and I am a Japanese hairstylist with over 15 years of experience. My passion and interest in hairstyling began at the age of 5 in my home town of Okayama, Japan.

In 2007, I attended an international beauty school in Osaka, Japan. I chose this school because they offered special training in Western and European style haircuts.
I graduated in 2009 with 4 different diplomas-Japanese hairdressing, European techniques (HIQ) , head spa education, and nail technician.
After 7 years of honing my skills and perfecting my craft in hairdressing, I was ready for a change of scenery. So, I decided to expanded my expertise and move to Melbourne, Australia. I spent the next year learning international trends and broadening my perspective on hairstyling. 

In 2016, I brought my experience and creativity to Montreal where I now reside. I help clients achieve their ideal looks with a combination of Japanese precision cutting and global inspiration.

I’ve gained valuable experience working backstage at major fashion events such as the Kansai Collection, one of the largest fashion events in western Japan along with the Sakura Collection at New York Fashion Week.

My strengths as a stylist are haircuts, Japanese head spa, and chemical free Japanese acid treatments. I excel in precision cutting, a vast array of colour techniques, curly/straight perms, and updos for weddings and fashion.

I am confident in creating styles that enhance your natural hair texture and bone structure while using the artistry of Japanese techniques. I take my time during consultations and im great at visualizing the end result.

When I’m not at the salon, I enjoy pilates class, online shopping, discovering new cafés and restaurants and cooking. Let’s work together to create a style that suits your lifestyle. I look forward to seeing you !
