Main Branch: Saratoga
Salon
Q: Tell us about yourself.
Where are you from? What are some of your career highlights?
A:
I’m originally from Yamanashi prefecture, Japan
where I worked as a registered nurse. My career started when I came to
the states, where I acquired
my certification as an eyelash specialist. While
going to a Japanese eyelash extension school in LA, I gathered models on my own
time to practice every single day so I can perfect my technique
as well as maintain a high-quality
customer experience.
Q: What's your specialty?
A:
I have a way of creating
not only beautiful, non-damaging lashes, but making
those lashes last long. I carefully study my customers’ lashes, capturing their features and the way
they grow to make sure that they’re sustainable. I also do
volume lashes and color extensions depending on my customers’ desired look.
Q: Why did you become an
eyelash specialist?
A: I remember I was captivated by my own eyelash
extension experience. I loved how it dramatically changed my eyes, while
still maintaining a natural look. I
was always interested in learning about it and coming to the states was the perfect timing to kick-start my career.
Q:
What do you love about your job?
A:
Being able to bring my customers’ vision to life is
the most rewarding experience ever. I love seeing my customers happy and satisfied with the outcome. The
best part is when they come
back for a refill, not only are some extensions still
left but they still look
beautifully intact. It’s
really important for me to bring long-lasting satisfaction for all of my
customers.
Q: Tell us about your
aspirations.
A:
To create a long-lasting organic lash
adhesive glue.
Q. Who’s your muse?
A:
Miranda Kerr.
Q: What do you do on your
free time?
A:
Spending time with my son!
Q: What’s your favorite
quote?
A: Laughter is the best
medicine.
