Laser or waxing services around Tokyo?

I tried signing up at Musee but they wouldn't accept me because I can't speak fluent Japanese. Does anyone know any places that offer such services, even for foreigners who can't speak Japanese very well?

A good place to look for adverts with bilingual services is the Metropolis magazine. These companies below offer bilingual services. http://www.elanajade.com/ http://laplage-beauty.com/ http://nuajapan.com/

Wow, very disappointed to hear you were turned away because you don't speak fluent Japanese. Shocking really. I have heard good things about Elana Jade.

Personally used both Nua (Omotesando area) and Elena Jade (Azabu Juban) when I lived in Tokyo, both were very nice and professional. They're also both easy to access via public transport which is also handy.

Your "buy it for life" purchases in Japan

There's a reddit community I really enjoy reading called r/buyitforlife. As the name suggests, people outline purchases that they've made that truly stand the test of time. Kitchen items, clothing, shoes, etc... What have been your "buy it for life" items here?

How well does your home country insulate homes compared to here?

One thing I struggle with is the lack of insulation in Japanese homes, with summers often feeling like you're living in a sauna and winters feeling like outside is the same temperature as inside. In saying that, my home country isn't fab with insulation either. They're still very much a nation of single paned windows and minimal stuff in the walls to regulate temperature well. Does your home country do insulation well compared to here?
