K・STUDIO・NEWYORK

English speaking! Got my hair cut for a wedding, which I haven't gotten in over a year. They not only did a fine job, but gave me tips and suggestions on what brands to use in Japan, how I could maintain my hair going forward, and they even gave me a discount because "no need to charge full price, this was an easy cut". I tipped him extra for all his nuggets of wisdom (I asked first, because in Japan, tipping is rude)

It was a lovely experience with highly skilled staff. My dry and curly hair is very hard to manage, even for hairdressers in Europe but Hiroshi was perfect at bringing my hair back to life again. I completely recommend to everyone and I will be back whenever I’m in Osaka again.

Very welcoming and pleasant experience. Best hair cut I've had in my life. Hiroshi was very polite and fun to talk with!

A very pleasant experience at this hair salon - even for those who, like me, usually dread getting a hair cut. Unlike other places in Osaka, the hair stylists here actually DO speak English and don't panic when they see a foreigner. The owners are very experienced with Western hair and work professionally. My stylist Keiko knew what I wanted/needed before I even spoke a word. Very customer-oriented, they will listen to your needs and consult with you before cutting and while cutting. Another advantage of this place is the cozy atmosphere and the privacy that is provided. There is a changing cabinet, where you can fix your make-up or change clothing. The seats are apart and angled so you don't have to face other customers or have them overhear your conversations. I will definitely stop by again for future hair cuts.

Fantastic haircut for foreigners and tourists! Was a bit hard to find initially as the google pin was in the wrong location. Navigate to the savoy which is next door and you can’t miss the big red sign to the right. We have been travelling from Australia for some time and I was nervous about getting a haircut but needed one before returning to work. I couldn’t have picked a better place. Hiroshi is a fantastic stylist who trained in London, Paris and New York for over 20yrs. He and his wife (who is also a stylist in the studio) both speak English and so you can easily discuss what you want done. The total cut took about an hour. It included shampoo, scalp massage, cut, rinse, and style. I tried the shampooing machine which was a unique experience. It seemed thorough and once you get used to it you can relax a bit more. It took a while to start and I’m not sure if it was steaming my hair or if it was just warming up because I was the first client. Once it got going it was fairly loud (when the water sprays on the face guards) so if I was a regular I would bring ear plugs. It wasn’t as relaxing as a shampoo by hand, which has a more traditional massaging feel, but was cool to try. And the scalp massage afterwards was brilliant. The cut was efficient and I had a great chat to Hiroshi while he worked. He is full of stories and tips about what to see and do in the Kansai area. He then discussed how I usually style my hair and then suggested a few options I could try to mix it up too. They accept credit and debit cards or cash. Reservations by phone in English are fine, you just have to wait a minute for Hiroshi or Keiko to come. Definitely recommended.

Highly recommended for any English-speakers in Osaka. The owner, Hiroshi, speaks English very well, and does a really good job of being welcoming and inviting. He was very accommodating, even though I arrived 15 minutes late. He even gave me a discount at the end, resulting in a very good price for an hour of service. The haircut also ended up looking very good - he asked some clarifying questions beforehand to make sure he knew what I wanted.

I have had the pleasure of visiting K Studio New York more than once. Each time, I have been welcomed warmly and accommodated beyond expectations. (They helped me get a haircut within the limitations of my work schedule at their personal time-expense.) The owner and stylist, Hiroshi, is very personable and remembered details of our talks from previous visits. As a resident of New York in the past, he is familiar with many hair types and speaks English very well. I recommend this salon to everyone, but especially as a comfortable place for foreigners to feel at ease. While getting a hair wash, I always receive a relaxing scalp massage, and a neck and back massage while sitting in the chair. The overall experience has been wonderful, and a great haircut is the cherry on top of the cake. I look forward to my next visit!

I went to get some highlights recently but the only thing that was different was the roots were done but I was charged for highlights and the toner that was used. I was way overcharged for the result I got. I've also had my eyebrows done here and it was also done very badly. The only service I recommend is the haircut.
