Hairdressing and beauty are cultures that connect people and enrich their daily lives. In Kobe, a city of creativity and sensibility, we hope to spread this culture and pass it on to the future. At the photo booth during this event, you can experience tuxedo styling by a bridal brand, as well as a professional hairstyling experience by barber staff. Our company is sponsoring the men’s styling products “DEUXER” and “DEUXER STYLING” to offer “high-quality styles” befitting formal attire for special occasions. Through this space where fashion and beauty intersect, we hope to promote new forms of self-expression for men and further develop hairdressing and beauty culture from Kobe.
