Color Fantasy in Tokyo: Gentle Hair Color for Scalp & Hair | Borderless Salon
Quick answer: Color Fantasy is a professional hair color made by Lumielina, the brand behind Repronizer and Hairbeauron. It is designed to color the hair while supporting the condition of your hair and scalp. It suits people who experience damage, scalp irritation, or thinning hair from repeated coloring, and it works for gray coverage, bleached hair, and a wide range of hair types. At Borderless Salon in Azabujuban and Omotesando, Tokyo, English-speaking stylists offer Color Fantasy. Typical market prices run from about ¥15,000 to ¥30,000 depending on hair length.
Do you recognize any of these with regular hair color?
- Hair damage
- Scalp stinging or irritation
- Hair that gets thinner over time
- Dryness and frizz
Most people who color their hair have experienced at least one of these. That is why we have introduced a new kind of hair color: Color Fantasy.
In this article, we explain what makes Color Fantasy different, who it suits, what it costs, and the results we have seen with real clients in Tokyo.
What Is Color Fantasy?
Conventional hair color relies on alkaline agents to open the hair cuticle. This can leave hair thinner and weaker and the scalp dry or irritated.
Color Fantasy takes a different approach. It is designed to support:
- Better hair quality
- A healthier scalp environment
Better hair quality usually means more shine, a smoother feel, and hair that is easier to manage. A healthier scalp matters just as much. A well-cared-for scalp supports healthier-looking skin and a better environment for strong, healthy hair growth.
Let’s look more closely at the brand behind it.
Color Fantasy Comes from Lumielina, the Brand Behind Repronizer and Hairbeauron
Lumielina is best known in the beauty industry for two products:
- Repronizer (hair dryer)
- Hairbeauron (flat iron)
Both became hugely popular because they are designed to dry and style hair with less damage. Many users notice that hair feels smoother after simply drying it, and that skin feels softer when the dryer’s airflow is used on the face. Hairbeauron is also loved because hair stays soft and does not turn stiff, even with repeated use.
Lumielina describes its technology as “bioprogramming,” using specially designed ceramics. For the company’s own explanation, see the Lumielina official website.
Color Fantasy is the hair color developed by that same company.
Key Features of Color Fantasy
With continued use, many clients tell us they notice:
- More firmness and body in the hair
- Less frizz and better manageability
- Added shine
- A more comfortable scalp
Normally, the more you color, the more your hair and scalp suffer. Color Fantasy was created to go in the opposite direction, and it has attracted a lot of attention in the industry for that reason.
Results vary by individual hair and scalp condition.
Color Fantasy Color Chart
The range runs from warm to cool tones. It works for fashion color, gray coverage, and bleached hair.
This is the other side of the color chart.
Who Is Color Fantasy For?
We recommend Color Fantasy if you:
- Have noticed your hair getting thinner from repeated coloring
- Have a sensitive scalp
- Regularly color gray hair
- Want to color your hair without adding more damage
If you want beautiful color but worry about damage, it is worth considering.
How Much Does Color Fantasy Cost?
Color Fantasy costs more than standard hair color because the product itself is more expensive. These are typical market prices at salons offering it:
| Hair length | Typical price (JPY) |
|---|---|
| Short hair | ¥15,000 – ¥20,000 |
| Medium hair | ¥20,000 – ¥25,000 |
| Long hair | ¥25,000 – ¥30,000 |
This may sound expensive for hair color alone. But consider that you get scalp care + hair quality care + hair color in a single visit. Separate scalp lotions, hair-growth shampoos, and head massages add up too. For many clients, one treatment that covers everything is good value.
Please check our current menu or contact the salon for exact prices at each location.
Before and After: Real Client Results
Here are results from clients at our salon. We could not photograph every client, so we have chosen several cases across different hair types.
Color Fantasy on Bleached, Non-Asian Hair
This international client has bleached hair. With non-Asian hair, the tone in the formula shows up very directly, so we adjust the shade carefully to avoid colors that come out too strong or muddy. Many Japanese hair colors also contain ash tones in nearly every shade. We found Color Fantasy flexible enough to work well for a variety of hair types.
Here is the result. A slightly darker root that gradually lightens toward the ends looks natural on international clients. Their scalps also tend to be drier, so some Japanese hair colors can be uncomfortable for them.
From this trial, we felt that Color Fantasy suits international clients’ hair and scalp well, and we plan to offer it more actively at Borderless Salon.
Color Fantasy on Asian Hair
This is a client with Asian hair. Unfortunately, we forgot to take a “before” photo. However, you can see the shine, and the color took evenly right up to the scalp. The client was very happy.
Clients with short hair need root touch-ups very often, and that repeated retouching has traditionally meant more stress on the scalp and thinner hair. With Color Fantasy, gray-coverage clients can color more frequently while keeping the scalp comfortable and the hair from drying out.
The finish was soft and glossy, and the client kept touching her hair with a smile.
Color Fantasy for Gray Hair on Japanese Clients
Many Japanese women color their gray hair, and some begin in their 30s. Gray coloring with alkaline agents can be hard on the hair, and doing it every month can leave hair weaker and flatter.
If you color regularly, caring for your scalp is essential. A healthy scalp helps hair look fuller and healthier, and glossy, voluminous hair looks beautiful at any age.
Wavy, Dull Hair with Gray Coverage
This client has gentle waves throughout her hair and has colored her gray hair for years. We combined Color Fantasy with our organic hair quality improvement treatment. Shine and texture improved noticeably, the gray was well covered, and her scalp stayed comfortable.
Look at the roots: the gray is covered and the hair is much shinier than before coloring. She was surprised at the difference. If you struggle with dryness and damage from gray coloring or root touch-ups, Color Fantasy is well worth trying.
