Five English-speaking hair salons in Tokyo
Even though Tokyo has a lot of excellent hair salons, getting a good haircut in Japan still can be challenging especially if you don’t speak Japanese. Fortunately, there are some Japanese hair salons in Tokyo that cater to foreigners, offering top-notch hairdressing services in English with perks like free Wi-Fi, free beverages, and free snacks.
What makes these hair salons special, is that they are staffed with stylists who have worked at hair salons in an English-speaking country, or completed professional hairdresser courses there. This feature will introduce some English-speaking hair salons in Tokyo worth visiting when you’re here!

1. Number 76 Tokyo
Number 76 Tokyo is an international Japanese hair salon that originated in Minami Aoyama, Tokyo, and it has opened many overseas branches including the ones in Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia.
Currently headquartered in Omotesando, Tokyo, Number 76 Tokyo is widely known as Hair Salon NALU in Japan. The hair salon is extremely famous among the locals and foreigners, so reservation in advance is recommended as it’s always packed. First-time customers get a 20% discount, and if you don’t have time to make a reservation in advance, you can always do walk-ins.
Most of the staff here understand basic English. Still, if you want someone who is somewhat fluent in English to cut your hair, you might want to book a haircut with Natsumi Makino, a female hairstylist who has worked at a hair salon in the UK before, and she is very skillful when it comes to high-tone hair coloring.

The salon provides precise counseling services in English, and it’s committed to providing top-notch hairdressing services through its highly skilled hairdressers.
