I left bustling Tokyo in 2010, resigning from a senior stylist position with a well known international salon after a successful 10 year career with them.
During the 9 years since arriving in Adelaide I have enjoyed being part of a wonderful team in a well established, highly regarded Adelaide group of salons. I thank them for their blessings. I owe much of my knowledge of Aussie culture and slang to my generous colleagues.
Establishing my own salon and welcoming clients as friends realises my childhood dream.
Shiho Suda
Colourist
I acquired a taste for the Australian way of life as an international student in my teens. I studied at an Adelaide Hair Academy before returning to Tokyo in 2001. I started my hairdressing career with the same well known international salon as Hiro, and resigned in 2009.
Longing to enjoy the vast horizons and relaxed lifestyle of Adelaide, I convinced Hiro to join me in Australia.
I have experience and expertise in matching a colour and style to my clients individual natural tones, lifestyle and personality. Asian hair and blondes of all shades are my speciality.
Meen Kim
Stylist
I have more than 8 years of experience as a hairstylist in Korea and Japan, have worked in well known international hair salons, and trained in London with wonderful people. I moved to Australia 7 years ago, and I am very excited to continue my career at Tef Tef. I love styling naturally, and I’ve worked with all different types of hair. I listen to my clients more than what I can create, and try to find their own style. This is my way of making me and other people happy.
Anri Okamoto
Spanist/Colourist
I have been working as a Senior Hairdresser for over 10 years in Japan and Australia. From large busy salons in Kyoto to boutique ones in the heart of Sydney, my experience gained in both Western and Japanese style salons has been a great privilege. While in Sydney I also transitioned into Massage Therapy, specialising in Japanese Head Spa. I have been able to continue that after moving to Adelaide a year ago with my family. I look forward to meeting new clients and providing a truly authentic Japanese experience for them.
Natsumi Nagai
Spanist
I began my career as an esthetician in Japan, dedicating myself to the beauty and wellness industry with a deep passion. My goal has always been to provide treatments that refresh not only the body but also the mind, creating meaningful connections with my clients along the way. Now, I am excited to take the next step in my journey as a spa therapist at TEF TEF. My mission is to offer personalised care that brings both relaxation and beauty, helping clients unwind from the stresses of daily life.
