Salon de Shimaji, Katsuhiko Shimaji's Quote of the Week
2016.12.25 update

A female warrior has appeared!

Hello everyone. This weekend, December 23rd is a public holiday Friday, so I'm sure many of you are planning to fully enjoy the Christmas season during this three-day weekend!
On Saturday, December 24th and Sunday, December 25th, Mr. Shimaji, our barber, is scheduled to visit the salon for the last time this year, so it is expected to be very crowded. Please be sure to allow plenty of time when you visit!
Please see here for the store visit schedule.


Well, it's already been three weeks since Salon de Shimaji's original bottle was released. The shelves are filling up with empty bottles every day (photo). To everyone who has tried it, what did you think of the taste? And for those of you who are thinking of trying it, please do so soon!

These empty bottles will be given to customers who request them after all the bottles have been used.
The drink count includes not only the number of drinks you drank yourself, but also the number of drinks you bought for others.
However, if your tilted glass starts to look straight, that's a sign you're drunk... So please enjoy yourself in moderation and don't overdo it!


One day, a female customer came into the store, saying she absolutely had to have serial number 001.

Customer : "I really want 001. I wonder if it will count if I treat Shimaji-san and other close regular customers to a meal?"

Shimaji : "Of course! I'm so happy! Please feel free to share as much as you like."

Customer: "Then please drink up!"


Shimaji: "Thank you, Slancing back!"
This incredibly generous gesture brought the salon to life! Toasts were being made everywhere, and conversations were flowing freely.


Shimaji: "A woman like you is rare. Culture is born from this wonderfully romantic extravagance."
Mr. Shimaji also raised a glass and enjoyed the original bottle with the customers for a while.

Please spend a wonderful Christmas weekend at our salon. We look forward to your visit.


This week's quote

This week's alcohol
