Yuko Japanese Hair Straightening

I cant emphasise enough just how much Yuko Hair Straightening has really changed my life, it might sound stupid but it seriously has. I have extremely thick hair, it used to take me 1hr to hairdry it and a further 1-2 hours straightening it. Before Yuko my natural hair was very frizzy, and curly, I would cry if it got wet and would never be near a pool if I went on holiday. I would envy all my friends and girls on holiday who could so carelessly jump in the pool and still look amazing, for me I would look like ive been dragged through a hedge backwards. I would have to give up 3hrs of my day once I washed my hair trying to do that as little as possible. I thought one day surely there is something in todays world that can help me tame this? So I done some research and found Yuko Hair Straightening. I went to the Renata Jon Salon, Hampstead as everyone raved about her as a hair genius and didn't want to compromise ruining the condition of my hair just for it to be manageable. ANYWAY, I had it done just over two weeks ago and all I can say is WOW. It truly is amazing. I wash my hair now and can leave it to dry or hair dry it and it dries perfectly straight, I haven't used straighteners once in the last two weeks. My hair has never felt so soft and silky now the only thing I do to it is put some coconut oil on the ends and protection spray when I decide to hairdry it. I cant quite rave about the person I dealt with enough, she really does put the condition of your hair above everything else and her boutique salon in Hampstead is absolutely gorgeous. Girls if you was like me and looking for some sort of lifeline to help manage your hair don't wait any longer! Book an appointment with her  now, it really is the best money I have ever spent and when I get noticeable regrowth I will be straight back there getting it retouched.

I have been going to the same salon to do Yuko For five years now, RENATA JON SALON IN HAMPSTEAD. The location is perfect because it is right next to the tube station so really easy to access also perfect if it is a rainy day and you have to get home without getting wet! The customer service is incredible and Renata is a lovely welcoming woman who performs Yuko to the highest standard every time and has an everlasting knowledge about hair products, treatments any questions you might have. The salon is an independent salon owned by Renata which I think makes all the difference instead of being a big chain where the staff is always changing and they don't even remember your name it is a welcoming place to come with a great deal of attention to detail. I would recommend this salon for anyone who does Yuko regularly to try because I guarantee you will want to come back also to first time Yuko because Renata really takes the time to explain the process and you can feel your hair is in safe hands. also the Yuko treatment itself I will recommend to anyone it has improved the condition of my hair amazingly rather than other treatment that actually damage the hair. Thank you Renata Jon!

In my opinion Yuko is the best hair straightening method I’ve ever experienced. However, make sure you go only to Yuko-trained hair specialists that do this all the time. After much research I got my hair straightened by Renata Jon and I was extremely happy with the results.

Unfortunately, I tried to save money the next time and went to another salon in Hampstead. It was disaster - they ruined my hair! My hair wasn’t straight and the ends were frizzy… It’s not worth it. By the time I had it repaired, it cost me more at the end! I learnt the hard way. Yuko is a fantastic straightening method, but it can go wrong if you use an inexperienced stylist.

I went back to see Renata Jon in Chelsea and now my hair feels so soft and frizz free, shiny and healthy!

I have had Yuko Japanese Hair straightening done for years now. Bravo Salon in Scottsdale AZ does the BEST hair straightening I've ever had, I am so happy. My hair is hard to straighten, because I have highlighted, colored and curly,frizzy thick hair. I would recommend this hair straightening to you done at this salon. What I liked most is that my hair feels so soft and frizz free, shiny and healthy when I get this treatment done only at Bravo Salon. What I didn't like is that I went to another salon to save money and they screwed up my hair real bad, and Bravo Salon fixed what they did with the Japanese hair straightening. I can only say that I wished I had known before that I had to buy Yuko special products to take home to use on my straightening. But I am really glad now that I did purchase them, the special products have saved my hair like Bravo said. Listen to these gals, they know what they are doing. I tried to save money and it's not worth it. It costs more at Bravo Salon, but I learned the hard way. With this hair treatment you shouldn't skimp, go only to real Japanese hair specialists that do this all the time and pay the extra money. They are worth it, and now I am happy with my hair, I can't believe how this salon fixed my hair, but they are real experts in this hair straightening.

Well, learned about Japanese Hair Straightening thru a friend. Searching online and found this Yuko system. However, I am from Toronto, On, couldn't find anyone doing it. Then eventually, I found this great salon in Scarborough - Salon on Brimley. They are very experienced and well-known in Toronto, very pretty salon, great service and great job. Price is not so scary compared with other salon i can found, pretty moderate but I do think it really worth every penny of it. My hair is now very amazing though I got it done over a month ago. Just "NO" maintenance. I will definitely go back to them, just hope this will last.

Yuko is an amazing hair straightening system. i've had it done once a year for several years. It's well worth the initial outlay, as it saves money on various hair products - and stops split ends caused by straightening irons. i get it done by Shogo in Hampstead, London. he's great (Japanese) and it's cheaper than anywhere else I've found in or around the London area. Both Yuko and Shogo are highly recommended.

There is only one JHS product that works... it is Licsio/Yuko. I have tried multiple straightening systems over many years and this is the one you will love! I have been using this product for 4 years. Be sure you call Liscio for a trained stylist, they will give you the closest stylist. I travel out of state to get mine done and it is worth every $$ I spend ($80 per hour at 7 hours). I would like to get it done every six months but I can get away with once a year if I use the shampoo and conditioner to maintain, which also works and is worth the $$. I will never do another process other than Licsio. It's smooth, shiny and healthier than ever.

I am in the uk and have been having my hair straightened yearly with Yuko and its a great product. I had naturally curly hair and hated it but now have long flowing straight hair.

100% recommend this product and so would my husband who couldnt believe that it straightened my hair first time i had it done.

I have it done every year so I get a years moneys worth from it.

Bargain !!

Here is the deal. It's not the product, it's the stylist. I have had it done 3 times in the last 5 years. First time it was CHI which made my hair pin straight, but b/c the stylist was pulling on it while the chemical was on my hair to keep it straight, half my hair broke off during the process.

My sister who has super kinky coarse hair tried it with someone else, and it looked fab. I decided to give it another shot and went to a new stylist who used CHI and told her about my experience and she was nervous and used the less potent CHI formula, and when I washed it after the 3rd day, it was like I never had it done. Come to find out when I called CHI she was not even licensed by them (not trained) to use their product.

My sister gets it done again (she used Alterna and a stylist that was very dediated to JHS) and of course it looked fab. I decided 3rd time is a charm. Unfortunately, the stylist my sister used moved out of state, so I found a stylist in Tampa that specializes in it, Anna Bang Hair Design. She uses the Liscio system and noticed when she started she used something that looked like a deoderant stick near my roots. That's to protect my roots from the chmical. Duh. Wish the first stylist had followed-procedure.

What I am saying is, any of the products will work, but the outcome depends on the technique. Make sure they use something to cover your roots. Also, take personal responsibility. Don't get your hair done every six months. I get it once a year and use my flat iron in between. Be smart about it and you will LOVE IT!

After much research, I got my hair Japanese straightened. It DID make my hair straight, smooth and shiny... for 4 days. After my first wash, my hair was a frizzy mess. I now have to flat iron my hair every morning which is EXTREMELY damaging after having a chemical process done. TONS OF SPLIT ENDS!!! I was thinking of getting my hair done again, but that would make my hair cost $800+tax, something I would kill myself for. So I've decided to accept my curly hair and wait for it to grow out.

My advice: If your hair isn't all that curly, try it, it might work for you. If not, then I think you should take extreme precaution or not do it at all. The after pictures are all taken directly after the styling and therefore may be misleading as to the actual outcome of the JHS/TR.
