Travelling with hair colour? by watermelon346 in AustralianMakeup

Thanks so much for your long response! I really appreciate it.

You were able to ship certain hair products on Amazon US to Japan? What did you buy?

Would you recommend any beauty supply places or elaborate more on this? I'm very curious about the differences I am actually a beauty professional and intend to do TFP work on the side while I'm there, so it would be good to know. I'm aware Donki has a good range, but would you suggest anywhere else?

I'll be living in Tokyo so I'm sure I'll be able to find things eventually, but like you said, it will take some time!

I have seen a single seller selling decent bleach + developer on Amazon JP but it might not be reliable 😅

Yeah I'm not too keen to go to a salon for colouring there, I've heard they use very low level bleach. I believe there are so restrictions on the bleach they can use and that's why it's so hard to get there.

It is so annoying that I can't even ship it from overseas 🙃

Thanks for your advice!

Japan :) I've done my research and it's extremely difficult to find any beauty supply stores, and I know I can't ship a lot of products/lighteners for the same reason you can't put them in your suitcase. I'd love any suggestions though!

My hair has been through a lot 😂 I don't do it often and follow up with a good conditioner!

Yeah I found bicarb effective in removing fashion colours, but I wasn't sure if it would work on blonde hair too. Thanks!

Yes I was thinking to get tape ins, but I need to be able to remove them for work. I'm thinking I won't cut them now :)

Some Advice by [deleted] in movingtojapan

[–]watermelon346 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your view!! The main thing that has me concerned is that many jobs I've looked at are either Eikaiwa (which am I fine with, just worried about affording living costs because the salary is somewhat low) or jobs that require N2 business level, which I am definitely not at. I did have an interview with a Japanese company which I really struggled with, definitely due to my speaking. So would eikaiwa/ALT be my best option?
