Living the anime lifestyle

In Tokyo, 24-year-old Senanan stands out with her "kawaii" or "cute" style, inspired by her favourite Japanese anime characters. At Iku's salon in trendy Harajuku district she dyes her hair a new crazy colour - but would she ever like to look more grown-up?

The Salon is a series of conversations about identity and appearance with women around the world, in the intimate space of the hairdresser's chair.
