I Cut It All Off.🇯🇵 | My First Solo Trip to a Japanese Hair Salon After Birth | Rural Japan

I'm a 31-year-old mom of two living in rural Japan. Today I took my first solo trip since giving birth — all the way to Shinjuku, Tokyo, to see the hairstylist I hadn't visited in 5 years. A big haircut, a quiet coffee, and a full day just for me. This is what that day looked like. ───────────────────────────── This channel is not about a perfect life. It's about real life — the mess, the quiet, and everything in between. Just an honest look at slow living in rural Japan. ───────────────────────────── 📌 In this video 00:00 Good morning — my first solo trip since giving birth 00:32 Makeup before heading out 01:20 Skincare & my worries about aging after 30 02:16 New makeup & my gyaru days 😄 03:01 That "phantom baby cry" every mom knows 04:04 How often do you go to the salon? 05:19 Nursing, then off I go! 05:41 Highway bus to Tokyo Station 06:39 A quiet coffee break at Starbucks 07:41 Navigating the chaos of Tokyo Station 08:09 Arriving in Shinjuku 09:22 Finally at the salon — a big change begins! 11:11 New hair & a well-earned café stop 12:39 Reflecting on the bus ride home 15:29 Home — the big hair reveal surprise 💕 16:22 The family's reaction ───────────────────────────── ☕ If you enjoy slow life content from rural Japan, feel free to subscribe.
