Earth, one of Japan's leading hair salons, is bringing the next generation of hairdressing to the UK when it opens its first overseas salon at Oxford Circus, London in May. The combination of Japanese style and precision, with cutting-edge salon technology and design at an affordable price will have both men and women hot-trotting it to the new salon before you can say cut and blow-dry!

The stylish salon is set over 3 floors with 12 styling positions, one double booth, one men's only booth and 2 VIP rooms. In the basement there is also the Earth training academy where every member of staff undertakes rigorous training in order for Earth to maintain a commitment to standards of the highest level in hairdressing.
Exclusive, private VIP rooms* allow customers to access the internet and catch up on emails, or even watch DVDs or listen to CDs whilst having their hair done. The VIP rooms are perfect for those workaholics who find it hard to escape their emails to pamper themselves and with Earth open until 10pm too, no longer will heavy workloads be an excuse for out of control split-ends. The VIP rooms are also ideal for those longer appointments which can often get so boring reading the same magazines.
Double booths are also available, meaning hair appointments can now become a key part of customers' social diaries. Girlie shopping days now won't have to end when the shops close, friends can book a joint hair appointment in the privacy of their own booth the perfect preparation for that big night out. The booths could also provide a venue for some quality mum and daughter pampering time or maybe if you're brave enough, the possibility to share a hairdressing appointment with your partner.
Earth is not just for women though, men are welcome here too. Earth realise that many guys don't find the same pleasure in spending time in the hairdressers as women, therefore complimentary 'men only' booths** have been installed. So now the image-conscious male need not feel self-conscious whilst enjoying the Earth salon experience.
So make sure you book an appointment at Earth, a stylish salon with an affordable price tag.
