Musubi Boutique Hair Salon is a Katong hair studio where Japanese artistry meets Singaporean creativity. Founded by director and hairstylist Takuya Segawa, the salon takes its name from the Japanese word for 'to tie' — a nod to its mission of connecting people, cultures and hearts through hair. The team blends Japanese precision with Singaporean warmth, guided by three values: creativity, connection and trust.
Services cover the full hair journey: precision haircuts for adults, kids and students; creative colouring from natural tones to vivid statements; gentle bleaching, including the Kizuna-Sai (Unlimited Bleaching) multi-session service for colour lovers; highlights, ombré, balayage and money piece; perms and digital perms; rebonding; and restorative hair and scalp treatments using systems such as Tokio Inkarami, Milbon Global, Olaplex, Epres, Aura, Mucota and Davines. Curated Japanese-named packages — Nagomi, Sen, Nami, Ren, Jyu, Kaze and Omakase — bundle cuts with treatments and texture services into one seamless visit.
The team includes senior stylist Germaine Tan, known for her shaggy wolf cuts and fearless colour, and colourist Prithi, who specialises in customised colour solutions. Located at 275 Tanjong Katong Rd, the salon is owned and operated by LOOP DE LOOP PTE. LTD. and is part of the Musubi Group alongside sister salon Ohana. Appointments can be booked online via Fresha or arranged over WhatsApp, with a downloadable price list available on the website.
Musubi Boutique Hair Salon sits at 275 Tanjong Katong Road in Singapore's beloved Katong neighbourhood, and its name tells you everything about what it is trying to do. 'Musubi' means 'to tie' in Japanese — and this boutique salon is in the business of tying things together: people, cultures and hearts, through hair. It was founded by director and hairstylist Takuya Segawa, who began with a dream of building a bridge between Japan and Singapore, blending technique, hospitality and artistry into one salon experience.
The salon describes itself as a place where Japanese precision meets Singaporean warmth, and that philosophy rests on three simple values: creativity (every hairstyle tells a unique story), connection (tying people, cultures and hearts through hair) and trust (your comfort, confidence and satisfaction at the core of everything). Guests are welcomed for whatever they need — a bold transformation, a gentle refresh, or simply a moment of calm.
Musubi's menu covers the full hair journey. Precision haircuts are tailored to individuality, with rates that vary by stylist rank — Stylist, Senior, Manager and Director — plus dedicated kids' and student cuts. Colour work ranges from natural retouches to dimensional, customised colour, half and full head highlights, ombré, balayage, money piece and dip dye. For those chasing lighter looks, the team specialises in gentle yet effective bleaching, including a standout service called Kizuna-Sai (Unlimited Bleaching) — multiple bleaching sessions bundled into one appointment for creative colour lovers.
Texture services include perms and digital perms for soft waves, structured curls or body-enhancing volume, alongside rebonding for sleek, manageable hair with minimal damage. Hair and scalp treatments draw on premium Japanese and international repair systems: Tokio Inkarami, Milbon Global, Olaplex, Epres, Aura, Mucota and Davines Scalp Supplement.
For visitors who want it all handled in one sitting, the salon curates Japanese-named signature packages: 和 Nagomi (cut plus treatment), 染 Sen (cut, colour and treatment), 波 Nami (cut, cosme perm and treatment), 煉 Ren (cut plus Tokio digital perm), 柔 Jyu (cut plus Tokio rebonding), 風 Kaze (cut plus Tokio rebonding perm) and 御任せ Omakase, a fully customised session left in the team's hands.
The team is led by Takuya Segawa, a craftsman with years of experience across Singapore and Japan who believes every hairstyle should reflect the soul. Senior stylist Germaine Tan is known for her signature shaggy wolf cuts and fearless hair colours, bringing edgy style with a warm, friendly touch. Colourist and assistant Prithi specialises in customised colour solutions, bringing subtlety and sophistication to every strand. The team keeps growing — recent journal posts welcome newcomers Faye and Sharon — and trains continuously, celebrating internal test milestones behind the scenes.
There is a lighter side to salon life, too: Toto and Jiji, the resident cats the salon affectionately calls the real bosses of the Musubi Group, which also includes sister salon Ohana.
Practical details are simple. The salon is owned and operated by LOOP DE LOOP PTE. LTD., a registered Singapore company. Appointments can be booked online through Fresha or arranged over WhatsApp, and a downloadable price list keeps everything transparent before you arrive.
Whether you are a Katong local or crossing the island for a Japanese-trained eye, Musubi positions itself as more than a salon: a space where stories, cultures and people are beautifully connected — and where you leave with a hairstyle that speaks to who you are.
