Description
Found in the business district of Morioh, Beauty Salon Cinderella is a small business composing of only two rooms - a waiting area, and a treatment room. The facade of the business features a large arched sign with the name "CINDERELLA" on it, along with ornate metal detailing on the sides supporting it. A small sign that reads "A makeover to bring you true love", along with the business's name, can be found in front of the building. It, along with the salon's menu and Aya's computer, all bear an emblem resembling Cinderella's carriage. At the end of a recessed entryway is the front door.
The waiting room simply houses a couch for waiting clients, a side table, a receptionist's desk, and a file cabinet. The treatment room features a plethora of tools and furniture pieces relating to Aya's practice. These include a vanity, a computer, a display cabinet, and an operating table with lighting, among other things. Several award certificates recognizing Aya's work can be found on the wall, though she states they're not on display to brag, but rather for clients to trust her skill. The only other door in the building, an emergency exit in the top left corner of the room, leads to another business street.
The salon is stated to be a two minute walk from Morioh Station.
Service
In her own words, Aya Tsuji states that her beauty salon works differently from most others, focusing on creating "visages of good fortune" rather than performing standard makeovers and body treatments. This is based on physiognomy, or the belief that ones characteristics, personality, and fortune can be determined based on the shape and features of their face. To achieve this, Aya uses the feature-swapping abilities of her Stand Cinderella to swap out parts of a client's face and/or body, though this is only known to Yukako Yamagishi, Koichi Hirose, and Yoshikage Kira. Additionally, Aya states that increasing a person's fortune takes a great amount of energy, so much so that if a client does not "bind" this energy using an item such as the Cinderella lipstick, the energy will "escape". This can lead to the client's original features crumbling away and disappearing forever. However, if she chooses, Aya can use Cinderella to restore these features.
Upon entering Aya's office, a client will have to fill their name and address on a form, after which they will be given a menu with Aya's services. While there are more on the menu, the following are the only visible services:
In addition to those listed above, Aya offers a full-body makeover that lasts 24 hours to Yukako for 72,000 yen. The services also vary in duration, lasting as short as 30 minutes, to as long as 24 hours. In order to help clients get an idea of how their makeover will look, Aya has a computer in her office which can simulate the final results, though her lack of mastery over the program can lead to humorous results in-between. If the client agrees, they will either have their face changed while sat in front of Aya's vanity, or have their body's changed on the operating table. Before the process starts, Aya will always ask her client to close their eyes, presumably so they will not see Cinderella.
While it's unknown if this offer is extended to all clients, Aya offers Yukako a refund after completing her first makeover if it did not garner the desired results. For unknown reasons, the salon is closed on Tuesdays.
