The values I cherish as a hairstylist are not just for this year, but something I strive to keep in mind at all times.
What matters most to me is truly meeting my clients where they are.

Creating styles that suit each client’s hair texture and condition is one part of that. Beyond that, I try to gently open each person’s world little by little—reading the mood they envision and sometimes suggesting styles they’ve never tried before, within a comfortable and natural range.
If, through that process, they can enjoy discovering a new side of themselves, I would be very happy.

As for my own personal goals, I’m not very good at setting clear resolutions or specific goals for the year, so mine are more like things I hope to work on little by little.
Since the beauty industry is, above all, physically demanding, this year I want to focus on building my stamina and being consistent with stretching, so I can be well prepared for each day at work.
By doing so—and by constantly burning calories—I hope to enjoy delicious food without any guilt!
