Hair color and highlights are a great way to give your hair a new look and accentuate your personal style.
Hair straightening and hair shaping
I discovered my passion for hair styling during my apprenticeship in 1986. The decade of the cold perm. But by the mid-90s, nobody wanted a perm anymore. But in 1996, Japanese stylist Yuko Yamashita invented the “perm backwards”, also the first permanent hair straightening. Since 2013, I have specialized in hair reshaping.

Discover my expertise in gentle straightening and unique curling techniques. With over 30 years of experience and 10 years of specialization in Japanese hair straightening, I offer you traditional methods with innovative approaches and offer you treatments that are outstanding in Germany.
Japanese Hair Straightening Yuko
Drag the slider to the right or left.
This care method is particularly suitable for wavy to very curly hair (hair type 4A).
What makes YUKO so special ?
Customization: To achieve the best possible result, I tailor the treatment to your hair type.
The initial condition of your hair determines the success of the treatment.
Hair that has already been dyed or lightly chemically treated can usually be treated without any problems.
I do not recommend a YUKO treatment for severely damaged, dry or brittle hair.
Proper application is essential for optimum results and the health of the hair.
Excessive or improper use can lead to hair breakage, split ends and loss of natural shine.

Restoration Moisture Nutrition
These are the three most important factors for healthy hair.
Healthy hair is the best basis for any treatment.
Therefore: prepare your hair optimally!
Your hair is unique and therefore needs individual care. Thorough preparation is the be-all and end-all before any hair treatment, especially straightening.
There are many reasons why hair care is important before treatment:
– Healthier hair: when you have a care plan, you strengthen your hair from the inside out and make it more resilient.
This allows you to achieve better results: If the hair is healthy, the treatment can work better and the results will last longer.
Protects the hair: Prior care can prevent damage and protect the hair from stress.
Your personal Cronograma Capilar care plan:
With Cronograma Capilar, we’ll get your hair back on track. This includes a shampoo and three hair masks that provide your hair with nutrients.

This is how it works:
– Deep cleansing : I ensure that all deposits and residues are thoroughly removed.
Detox: I detoxify your hair with a special shampoo.
Intensive care: With my Reabilitação Capilar 3-step care, I provide your hair with everything it needs.

Follow-up treatments that should be carried out regularly:
To ensure that you keep your dream hair in the long term, I recommend that you have a follow-up treatment every four to eight months.
Make your hair your priority:
Healthy hair is the perfect foundation for any hairstyle. With the right care and the right treatments, you can give your hair a new shine. These products are not only available, but are also very popular in Brazil!
Why I don’t have a public telephone number:
In order to be able to concentrate fully on your treatment, I work without a fixed telephone appointment. You can find all the important information here on my website. Many people immediately look for my telephone number, even though all the information is on my website.
You can easily manage your appointments online.
A deposit of €150 is due for each booking. For hair straightening, I charge according to the time required and €70 per hour.
This is how I calculate my price:
- Hourly rate: €70 per hour
- Duration:
- For short hair I need from 4 hours, for hair from shoulder length 5-7 hours.
The exact duration depends on the length and volume of the hair, not the curl thickness.
Plan for this time.
The times given assume that you keep your head still and upright. Think of your body as a tripod and your head as a screen: Every movement extends the time. Constantly looking at your smartphone can significantly increase the time, especially if your head is constantly tilted downwards.
I am pleased to introduce you to my commitment and philosophy for high-quality hair straightening at fair prices.
Despite competitive prices, it is important to me to offer you a wide range of hair shaping services that you will often look for in vain in many other salons. I am the only salon in the region to offer the latest hair straightening methods from Brazil and Japan. I use high-quality imported products that are often offered in other salons at prices between 100 and 120 euros per hour – if they are available at all.
I would like to emphasize that I have not changed my pricing since 2015. My hourly rate of 70 euros is at the break-even point and is considered too high by some. Over the past ten years, I have often heard that my prices are considered overpriced. It is important to know that I offer excellent value for money, especially when compared to other high quality services, such as tattoos, which often start at 80 euros per hour.
The 70 euros includes both the products used and VAT. This actually leaves me with only 56.70 euros per hour, which is just enough to cover my costs and unfortunately only allows me to make a minimal profit.
One example of my first-class service is Yuko hair straightening.
I am delighted that customers from Switzerland, London and the Netherlands come to me for this service. They are often pleasantly surprised at how affordable this high-quality treatment is with me.
It is understandable that some people find a hair straightening treatment that takes six hours and costs 420 euros expensive. But even in cheaper salons, three haircuts at 20 euros per hour can generate a turnover of 60 euros.
While a barber in an inexpensive salon also generates 420 euros in revenue after six hours, the quality of his work often does not match the high-quality products I use. It is therefore difficult to understand why a sophisticated treatment at a price of 420 euros is considered expensive.
Do you dream of silky, shiny hair that is effortless to style?
Imagine yourself strolling through the streets, relaxed, with your hair shimmering in the light – so smooth and vibrant that you hardly recognize it. Enjoy the luxurious and soothing experience of having your hair straightened to bring out your natural beauty.
After my extensive training in the fashion capitals of London and Japan, I am delighted to be able to offer you individual hair straightening at the highest level. I tailor each treatment to your individual needs, because your hair is unique and deserves the best.
Professional hair straightening can make your dream come true – let it come true!
Many clients are reluctant to invest in hair straightening, but I completely understand that. It’s important to realize how serious this decision is. Professional hair care is not only a matter of appearance, but also an important investment in your well-being and health.
Successful hair straightening requires not only the right product, but also craftsmanship and extensive experience. Most products are only effective when applied by a qualified professional and not by a layman or inexperienced hairdresser.
I have in-depth knowledge of the wide range of products on the market.
Therefore, I would encourage you to look for quality and consult an experienced stylist to ensure that your hair is treated gently and effectively.

Your visit with me – together for great hair
I am delighted that you are interested in my hair straightening service! I want you to be satisfied. To make sure everything runs smoothly, I would like to inform you about a few important points.
I’ll be happy to explain why I’ve done it this way:
Many people want to do my treatments. That makes me happy, but it’s also a challenge. I’ve decided to adjust a few things to give you and myself a better experience.
You can find all the information about my services and prices on my website. So you can inform yourself.
I need time to plan my appointments: that’s why it’s difficult for me to cancel at short notice. I therefore charge a small fee so that we can plan our time together fairly.
I am flexible for you: With my online booking system, you can manage your appointments yourself.
You know exactly what to expect and what costs you will incur.
You can book your appointment flexibly when it suits you. I can then concentrate fully on your treatment.
We work together for a good result. I am convinced that these changes will help make your visit with me a complete success.
Together we will create a relaxed atmosphere in which you feel comfortable and get the best possible result.
I am convinced that nowhere else can you get better quality at a comparable price.
Compared to cheap salons or unqualified providers who work with lower standards and cheaper products, my turnover is lower. However, I also see this as an advantage, as I can devote all my attention to a single customer instead of having to change customers every 20 minutes.
It’s also important to understand why there are so few hair straightening experts in Germany.
I am one of the few who can be found quickly on the internet.
I am firmly convinced that quality has its price – a price that is worth paying. We should therefore not leave the market to unqualified providers or low-cost salons.
Times: Tuesdays to Saturdays from 11 a.m. at the earliest.
Sundays at 12:30 pm.
As a self-employed solo service provider, you are generally allowed to set your own opening hours. That’s why you can also book an appointment for a hair straightening treatment with me on Sundays.
Spontaneous customers are not planned for me
I recommend you watch IPTV on my TV during the treatment, bring a cable or Bluetooth in-ear headphones.
My dog Ludo is always by my side. If you are afraid of dogs, just ignore Ludo. After 2 minutes at the latest, Ludo won’t be interested in you.

Are you coming by car?
I recommend Ampido as the best and cheapest option.
It is best to reserve your parking space together with your appointment with me. If you decide to search spontaneously, please note that I charge by the hour. Even 30 minutes waiting time for your appointment is time spent.
It is possible to reserve a parking space, but the maximum parking time is limited to 4 hours and the costs are high. Often 4 hours is not enough, especially if you have long hair. An alternative is to park in a parking garage.
