Hairstylists Can Thrive in Canada
Demand for Hairstylists
Driven by Canada’s diverse culture and population growth, the beauty industry is always sensitive to new trends and technological advances, and new Japanese salon techniques are gaining recognition.
Reputation of Japanese Hairstylists
Because they obtain their licence after thorough training at vocational schools and similar institutions, their attention to detail and service skills are very popular in Canada.
Advantages Under the Immigration System
Hairstylists are included in the category known as skilled worker occupations. By gaining work experience as a hairstylist in Canada, you can become eligible to apply for permanent residence.
Hairstylists Have a Chance at Work and Permanent Residence
People with Hairstyling Experience
People with work experience as a hairstylist in Canada, or who hold a Japanese hairdresser licence (美容師免許), are likely to continue to be favoured when obtaining permanent residence.
Many Japanese Business Owners
In Canada there are many hair salons run by Japanese owners, and they actively provide visa support for Japanese staff.
A Stable Life Plan
Jobs are easy to find, and you can run your own salon after obtaining permanent residence, making it a stable occupation that makes future planning easier.
Our CEO, Ms. Shiraishi, Explains the Beauty Industry!

Visa JP Canada’s Track Record: From Hairstylist to Permanent Residence
Yuta, Who Became a Permanent Resident as a Hairstylist
They suggested various things I could do with my status, and responded quickly whenever something came up. I don’t think I could ever have handled the suddenly changing visa rules and such a long process on my own.
SHO, a Salon Owner with Hairstyling Experience
When I asked them to handle my work permit application, Visa JP Canada’s quick response and long experience meant I got my visa without any problems, so I trusted them a lot and felt far more reassured than worried. I’m very grateful.
Mr. M., Who Got PR After a Work Permit
They explained everything clearly and thoroughly even to me, who knew nothing about visas, so I relied on them from my work permit application onward. During my immigration application, too, I had great trust in my consultant. I’m so glad I was able to immigrate!
Ms. K., Who Got PR in 6 Years
It felt like I just gathered the documents as I was told, waited as I was told, and got permanent residence. My husband couldn’t wait and contacted the consultant many times asking whether it was ready yet, but they kindly responded every time.
