About Art-Noise
Art-Noise is a premier Japanese hair salon located in Holland Village, Singapore, serving as the first overseas branch of an award-winning salon originating from Ikebukuro, Tokyo. Established in Singapore in September 2014, the salon brings renowned Japanese hairdressing techniques, hospitality, and custom haircare systems to the West area of Singapore.
The salon features an experienced team of Japanese senior stylists alongside a Singaporean receptionist, ensuring seamless bilingual communication in both English and Japanese. Art-Noise specifically formulates its treatments, cuts, and original in-house haircare products—including the proprietary SHA shampoo line—to address common hair concerns in Singapore's tropical climate, such as frizz, volume loss, and sensitive scalp, using gentle, non-damaging chemical blends made in Japan.
Tokyo Craftsmanship in Holland Village: The Art-Noise Hair Salon Experience
Originating in the competitive beauty district of Ikebukuro, Tokyo—home to one of the highest densities of hair salons in the world—Art-Noise made its international debut in September 2014 by opening its first overseas outpost in Holland Village. As the first Japanese hair salon established in the West area of Singapore, Art-Noise brought with it a storied pedigree, having clinched the prestigious Grand Prix Best Salon Award at the SPCN contest in Japan against more than a thousand competing salons.
From its bright, welcoming second-floor studio along Lorong Mambong, Art-Noise offers an authentic Tokyo salon experience fine-tuned for life in the tropics. Rather than applying standard Japanese salon methods unchanged, the team has dedicated years to investigating how Singapore's constant humidity, high temperatures, and urban water affect various hair textures, crafting customized solutions that solve common local hair dilemmas like frizz, flat volume, and oily scalps.
Japanese Senior Stylists and Thoughtful Consultations
Every stylist at Art-Noise Singapore is a seasoned professional recruited directly from Japan, possessing extensive background experience in top-tier salons. Communication is effortless: the salon features a Singaporean receptionist on staff, ensuring that clients can comfortably express their exact desires, daily routines, and styling frustrations in English or Japanese.
Every session begins with thorough counselling. Stylists examine not just the physical strands and scalp health, but also lifestyle details—such as whether you tie your hair daily, blow-dry regularly, or spend significant time outdoors. This meticulous approach guarantees that haircuts, perms, and colour applications grow out gracefully and remain effortless to style at home.
Signature Rebonding, Colour, and Proprietary Haircare
Art-Noise is widely celebrated for its gentle chemical applications. Striving to use only non-damaging chemical blends sourced and manufactured in Japan, the salon specializes in transformative straightening through its Premium Aqua Rebonding and Aqua-Moisture Rebonding treatments. These techniques impart a smooth, natural finish that retains movement and bounce without the stiff, pinned-straight look of conventional chemical straighteners.
For colour enthusiasts, Art-Noise delivers subtle sheer tones, balayage, multi-tonal highlights, and creative vibrant pigments. To ensure results endure between salon appointments, Art-Noise introduced its proprietary SHA (Scalp, Hair, Art-Noise) Shampoo and Treatment range. Developed in collaboration with researchers and incorporating feedback from more than 40,000 customers, this gentle, ingredient-conscious regimen supports scalp vitality and repairs damaged tresses.
Whether booking an intensive head spa to de-stress after work or a total restyle, visitors find a calm, hospitable sanctuary that exemplifies the precision and warm omotenashi hospitality of modern Tokyo hairdressing.
