HAIRAJUKU SALON


12365 Foothill Blvd.
Suite 104
Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91729
(909) 463-3439

Yesterday, my hairstylist, Jesse, made her dream come true! She finally opened up HAIRAJUKU SALON in Rancho Cucamonga!! All the girls working there are absolutely fabulously cute and fun! She's doing a promo this month and giving a gift of $10 off cuts and $20 off color to launch her grand opening. Hairajuku is by far the chicest salon in all of Rancho Cucamonga that I have seen so far!!

"Hair"-ajuku is a play on harajuku... get it?!?!

For those fashion and Gwen Stefani challenged, harajuku as described by Wikipedia is the common name for the area around Harajuku Station on the Yamanote Line in the Shibuya ward of Tokyo, Japan. The area is known internationally for its youth style and fashion...
The area has two main shopping streets, Omotesandō and Takeshita Street (Takeshita-dōri). The latter caters to youth fashions and has many small stores selling Gothic Lolita, visual kei, rockabilly, hip-hop, and punk outfits, in addition to fast food outlets and so forth. In recent years Omotesandō has seen a rise in branches of expensive fashion stores such as Louis Vuitton, Chanel, and Prada. The avenue is sometimes referred to as "Tokyo's Champs-Élysées". The area known as "Ura-Hara" (back streets of Harajuku) is a center of Japanese fashion for younger people. The term "Harajuku Girls" has been used by English-language media to describe teenagers dressed in any fashion style who are in the area of Harajuku. These girls may be members of various sub-cultures including Gothic Lolita, Ganguro, Gyaru, and Kogal, or may often cosplay as characters from an anime, movie, or manga.

That being said, I should also mention that Jesse gave me a fabulous haircut/color and has convinced Tracy, the owner of Hairajuku and the adjacent/attached clothing boutique (Miso Fly), to carry tweed & loop earrings.

Now, you can find tweed and loop earrings in Miso Fly Clothing Boutique! Yay!

Miso Fly is located at 12365 Foothill Blvd. Suite 104 Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91739
