“Keen-kichijoji” is a hair salon in Kichijoji, Tokyo, Japan.
Kichijoji is known as a place of a source of fashion, lifestyle, and subcultures, and particularly is a place where “oldness” and “newness” are fused, such as latest fashion shops are placed in an old shopping street.
The lightings used in “Keen-kichijoji” have been consumed in our society since decades ago, such as primitive lamps, neon tubes, and fluorescent lighting boxes. Therefore it can be said that they are not a novelty.
