Meet Kevin Kazuma Serizawa | Salon owner & Nail technician

We had the good fortune of connecting with Kevin Kazuma Serizawa and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kevin Kazuma, how do you think about risk?
Every decision involves a degree of risk. Stepping into the role of salon owner, taking over from my mother, was a venture fraught with uncertainty. Even today, I’m keenly aware of the magnitude of the risk I’ve undertaken. The question of whether I’ve made the correct choice remains unanswered. However, amidst the uncertainty, one driving force eclipses any apprehension: my unwavering commitment to supporting my family. In my perspective, the fear of regret surpasses the fear of taking risks. I’d rather confront uncertainty and take action than ponder over what-ifs in the years to come.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
Upon graduating from a university in Tokyo, Japan, I embarked on a career in the sales field, which has shaped my professional journey. My experience in managing teams and selling both products and services has provided invaluable skills that now enhance my work as a salon owner. I firmly believe in the rich history of our salon and the remarkable skillsets of our technicians.

Running a business is a continuous challenge, with hurdles that inevitably arise. When faced with setbacks, my approach is to reflect on the situation and brainstorm improvements or strategies for the future. I firmly believe that taking small, deliberate steps today will eventually lead to significant strides tomorrow.

In the ever-evolving beauty industry, staying current is a priority. I dedicate myself to the pursuit of knowledge and skill enhancement, recognizing that the industry frequently introduces new products and techniques. My daily goal is to remain up-to-date and prepared for what tomorrow brings.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
The weather in Orange County is nothing short of spectacular, making it an ideal destination for outdoor activities. Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, and Laguna Beach are absolute must-visit locations, offering pristine coastal beauty. Additionally, Fashion Island stands out as a fantastic shopping destination for visitors. This remarkable mall has everything you could desire all in one place. What’s particularly appealing is its open-air setup, allowing you to relish the lovely weather while indulging in some retail therapy. The same outdoor shopping experience can be found at Irvine Spectrum, another excellent mall that offers a wealth of entertainment options.

If you prefer an indoor shopping experience, South Coast Plaza is one of the region’s largest and most upscale malls. It’s the perfect choice for those who prefer the comfort of an indoor environment while shopping and exploring.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
All credit is due to the dedicated technicians and loyal customers who have been a part of our salon’s journey. Over the course of eight years, Myu Beauty has thrived. Our salon’s sterling reputation has been meticulously crafted through the relentless efforts of each technician and the unwavering support of long-time customers. I haven’t built anything in isolation; every accomplishment is a product of collective hard work and the trust our customers place in our salon. I am committed to preserving this nurturing environment and the relationships that surround me. As we look ahead, I am excited about our plans for expansion and the prospect of connecting with even more people.
