Art Noise Japanese Hair Salon @ Holland Village

Where To Find Them

It was always a dream for me to bring the best of Japanese hairstyles and service out of Japan… I’m privileged to have this opportunity to pursue this dream and help customers in Singapore look beautiful with minimal damage to their hair!

Shoichi Ishiyama
Founder of Art-Noise Hair Salon

Overview

Established in Ikebukuro more than 12 years ago, Art-Noise has flourished and emerged as the most popular hair salon in Ikebukuro… not an easy feat as most of Tokyo’s top hair salons are located in the area! Founder Shoichi Ishiyama has brought this winning formula not only to Japan but also Melbourne, Australia and now the cozy Holland Village, starting with exceptional service, relaxing ambience and quality hair products exclusively innovated by Art-Noise.

Although they have recently moved to their new location opposite Wala Wala, they have retained the spacious and uplifting feel that made us relax the moment we step in.

Despite the great ambience, it was the friendly, helpful hairstylists who really caught our attention. From the tissue paper used to shield your face from stray water drops during hair wash to the uber-comfortable hair massage and patience to listen to you during hair consultation, Art-Noise stylists stands out with their conscientiousness and level of service. Ishiyama-san attributes this high level of service and strong camaraderie among stylists to his professional talented stylist team who are empowered to do everything in their power to exceed customer expectations.

Unlike local or Korean salons who may attend to more than one customer at one time, Ishiyama-san also ensures that the schedule is arranged in such a way that one stylist attends to only one customer from the start till the end. Therefore, we really feel the personalized service you may not be able to experience elsewhere. Do however try to come on time as a late appointment may cause other customers’ appointments to be affected as well!

Update: Art Noise has just innovated a NEW type of perm with Art Noise exclusive chemicals and techniques to help even ladies with softfine hair achieve a soft ‘”Chiffon” perm! Read more about the perm in the Chiffon Perm tab!

Aqua moisture rebonding is good

First time visit to the salon and did aqua moisture rebonding. I have natural curl which is thin and dry, and the rebonding works on me. My hair is smooth and straight now :) Great service by Yu too! Will definitely go back again when my curls are out.

Service was OK as with most Japanese services but science aqua wasn't fantastic

Review for Yuka

Went on 17 Sep for the s-aqua treatment with yuka. She was great - friendly and warm but the treatment was nothing to shout about, given the price tag. I paid 184 for medium hair after a 20% discount and had fantastic looking, smooth hair right after treatment. I had such high hopes this time after failed attempts at mucota dyna and bioma. I was advised that this is without chemicals and that my hair will be smooth and the more I do, the better it gets. I also advised yuka that I don't blow dry my hair so was looking for a lazy way out for fuss free hair. The treatment was fairly quick, simple and straightforward and quite frankly required little skill to process. I was advised to wait a day to wash and I did follow, only washing 36 hours later. After wash, my hair did still smell of the treatment but hair was nothing like the salon effect. In fact, I felt it was a total waste of money. Will not be going back again.

Creative and skilful stylist: Daisuke ??

Review for Daisuke

I wanted a change for the new year and booked appointment at Art-Noise with the strong recommendation of my friend. Was told that the experienced stylists were not available and settled with Daisuke. He was very careful initially and asked for my preferences. After assuring my confidence in him and my desire for changes, he was determined to make a difference. He cut my long tress and permed it for a new look. Though new in Art-Noise, Daisuke is bagged with experiences from Japan and New Zealand before his stint in Singapore. Apart from receiving positive feedbacks from relatives, friends and especially colleagues, it has been almost 2months and the perm is still nice and easy to manage. Kudos to Daisuke ?? ?? and thank you very much for giving me a fresh new image with little hassle!!

Great service always!

I’ve been visiting this salon for at least 3 years now. It can be a bit on the pricey side but the service and quality is worth it. Compared to other salons I’ve been to in the past, I’ve enjoyed the atmosphere of this salon as well as the care taken by the hairdressers (I’ve been taken care of by 4 of them so far) when dealing with my hair. I’ve done a perm, several straightening and treatment sessions here. I would also recommend this place to my friends and family. My sister has also been here a few times and she commends the quality too. She would come more often if it was not so expensive. I recently had the Tokio treatment. I like their treatments because they really improve the condition of my hair for the next few weeks.

Awesome Stylist!

Stylist is super friendly, funny, skillful and entertaining. I wanted to get a pixie undercut but I wasn't sure how my hair would turn out as the shortest I went was until my shoulder blades but Hajime-san made my hair looked soooo good that I went to get my hair done again by him on 31/3/18
