Calling All Anime-Loving Hairstylists!
Join a Salon That Gets You
Why Most Salons Don’t Understand Anime-Loving Stylists
Let’s face it — being an Anime-loving hairstylist in a typical salon can feel lonely.
You’re excited about the latest episode of Demon Slayer or can’t stop thinking about that One Piece plot twist — but no one else in the breakroom cares. You try to talk about Chainsaw Man or Spy x Family, but your coworkers look confused, or worse, dismissive.
You want to wear your favorite Haikyuu!! tee to work, but you second-guess it. You want to bond with clients over anime, but it feels like no one gets it.
So you stay quiet. You tone yourself down.
And that’s just not fair.
You shouldn’t have to choose between your passion and your profession.
You shouldn’t have to hide who you are just to “fit in.”
At U&K Salon, we do things differently.
We welcome stylists who love anime, manga, cosplay, and Japanese culture — not just as a side interest, but as part of who they are. Because we’re fans too. And we believe your passion makes you more creative, more connected, and way more fun to work with.
You’re Not Alone — We Love Anime Too
We get it — because we’re the same.
We’ve been watching anime since we were kids. Staying up late for new episodes, crying over finales, lining up at cons, rewatching our favorites for the tenth time. Anime and manga are a huge part of who we are — and we still get excited every time a new season drops.
That’s why we created a salon where it’s totally normal to talk about your favorite characters with coworkers and clients.
Whether you’re into big-name shonen or underrated slice-of-life, we probably love it too. Here are just a few titles that live rent-free in our hearts:
Mainstream Hits (Everyone Knows, Everyone Loves):
Naruto
One Piece
Bleach
Death Note
Attack on Titan
Demon Slayer
Jujutsu Kaisen
Chainsaw Man
My Hero Academia

From Ghibli vibes to gritty thrillers, from emotional school dramas to sci-fi mind-benders — anime isn’t just something we like. It’s something we live.
