About hair and makeup
- We will arrange Japanese hair and makeup staff. Please let us know in advance if you have an image of your desired hairstyle.

About local staff
Local staff, photographers, and attendant staff will not keep valuables. We recommend that you do not bring large amounts of money or valuables, as you will be exempt from liability if you leave it.

About shooting
