A comfortable room temperature varies from person to person.
Hello everyone, thank you for your continued support. This staff blog post is written by Kakishima. During the hot season, there's a problem that almost always arises indoors: the air conditioner's temperature setting. Some people say, "Isn't it a little too hot?", while others say, "It's a bit too cold." Even though we're in the same room with the same air conditioning, why is there such a difference in how we perceive things? In particular, men seem to be hotter, while women seem colder...

I went on a trip to Kagoshima!
Hello everyone, thank you for your continued support. This staff blog post is written by Kakishima, who recently celebrated his birthday. A senior from my university days is currently living in Kagoshima, and I had the opportunity to take some time off to visit. Actually, I had been there before, but that was in the middle of summer last year. During that solo trip, I visited Sakurajima, but after being overwhelmed by the lack of shade, I escaped to an aquarium near the ferry terminal...

It starts with "rei" and ends with "rei"
"Greetings" Hello everyone, thank you for your continued support. This staff blog is written by Kakishima, who is still continuing his habit of polishing his leather shoes. Lately, perhaps because I've been buying new suits and carefully choosing my leather shoes, I've been thinking more and more about how important it is to take care of myself. That reminded me of the kendo I used to practice. Though, it was only for about a year. I wasn't serious about it; I just wore protective gear and played some light matches because of my parents' influence...

The story of how I started paying attention to my shoes after buying a suit.
Hello everyone, thank you for your continued support. This time, I, Kakishima, will be writing the staff blog. Since I recently bought a new suit, I've been paying a surprising amount of attention to other people's suits. Things like the fabric, the fit, and how the shoulders fit. I've suddenly started noticing details I never paid attention to before. And as I've been observing, I've noticed that people who wear suits properly also tend to wear proper shoes...

I bought a new suit (and a little regret)
Thank you all for your continued support. This time, I'll be writing the staff blog. I recently bought a new suit. I've been thinking for a while that it's about time to buy a new one, but I've been putting it off, and finally decided to do it. The reason is simple: it's because our members' suits are so well-made. Looking at the feel of the fabric and the way they're styled, I thought, "The way someone dresses for a special occasion needs to be convincing..."

What to look for in a SALON interview
Thank you all for your continued support. This staff blog will be written by Kakishima. "What kind of questions are asked in an interview?" "What are they looking for?" These are questions we often get from people who are interested in THE SALON! This time, as a staff member who actually participates in interviews at THE SALON, I will talk about the points I look for in an interview based purely on my own subjective opinion...

It's a busy season, so honest behavior is important...
Thank you all for your continued support. This time, I'll be writing the staff blog. As we enter November, the cold weather really sets in, and we're getting busier as we approach the end of the year. Work and personal life are about to get busier. 🍁 In this climate, the most important thing is how we use our time. In this world of activity, how we use each other's time has a major impact on the longevity of our relationships.

Let's declutter!
Thank you all for your continued support. This time, I'll be writing the staff blog. Are you practicing "danshari" (decluttering)? If you're not conscious of it, things will just keep piling up. I, too, am gradually losing space in my home. So this blog is meant as a reminder to myself. There are many ways to declutter, but since it's the change of seasons, I'll be talking about decluttering clothes.

God is in the details...
Thank you all for your continued support. This time, I'll be writing the staff blog. This may be a bit sudden, but are you familiar with the saying, "God is in the details"? I interpret it as meaning that when it comes to achieving big goals, the small efforts and considerations behind them can have a major impact on the outcome, and I think it's a great saying. It's a phrase I'd love to hang on the wall of my parents' house. Since it's such a favorite saying, I'd like to know what "details" mean in relation to SALON...
