Back in the spring, a group of innovative hair stylists launched a crowdfunding campaign with the goal of opening a hair salon in Akihabara, Tokyo’s anime and electronics district.
That said, this is still a legitimate hair salon, not some skeevy dude offering to cut your hair for five bucks in his hotel room during an anime convention.
And just like talented professionals are prepared to style a customer’s hair like his or her favorite celebrity, the OFF-KAi!!
The project was a success, raising more than double the 300,000 yen (US$2,910) it was seeking, and so on October 1, OFF-KAi!!
