Japan's Job Market: Ditching Hair Dye Rules
Update: 2025-11-16
Description
Hinako Mori, a 22-year-old with vibrant hair, shares her experience working at Don Quijote, a Tokyo store that embraces individuality. She contrasts this with her previous job at a convenience store, where strict hair rules caused stress. Now, more companies are relaxing dress codes due to Japans tight labor market, with Don Quijote leading the way with 25% of employees sporting non-black hair. Even traditional stores like Fuji Yakuhin and Tokyu Store supermarkets have eased restrictions, reflecting a shift in workplace culture.
