Beauty Advisor of the Month: Jumi Fujiwara of Excy Laser

What is the signature service of your salon?
We offer laser hair removal services using the latest technology, developed by an American company. We offer low prices and excellent service, taking the time to consult with each client and making the best recommendations for each person.

What is unique about laser hair removal?
Laser hair removal is very speedy, but it does not work well on blonde or white hair, only darker hair. With laser hair removal, a lot of hair can be removed at one time compared to electrolysis, which can only get rid of a single hair at a time and is extremely time-consuming. For example, with laser hair removal, both armpits can be treated in just 2-3 minutes per treatment. With other kinds of body treatments, such as facials or manicures, you must continually maintain them. On the other hand, laser hair removal is nearly permanent, with low risks and long-lasting effects.

When is the best time to start laser hair removal treatments?
First of all, we suggest that you take good care of your skin over the summer and do not get too tanned. Next, don’t wait until the spring or early summer. Start your laser hair treatments in the fall. The basic number of recommended treatments is six times. However, each customer’s hair growth cycles and needs are different. Some customers might need more treatments. After 8-12 months of treatments, your skin will be nice and smooth by the next summer!

Beauty Tip from Ms. Fujiwara

Owner of Excy Laser, Ms. Fujiwara has a motto that “Beauty is your duty. A woman should be beautiful both on the inside and outside,” and believes that real beauty cannot be achieved in one day. Constantly being aware of your own beauty and making an effort all day, every day is very important. No matter how busy her schedule may be, she always makes time to curl her hair every morning. Small efforts throughout the day to make yourself beautiful will pay off!
