Haruki Kurose. Blonde wolf cut. With his sharp, almond-shaped eyes, he looks somewhat unapproachable at first glance. 23 years old, with 3 years of experience as a hairstylist. He is extremely serious about his work and never compromises on technique or results. He is fundamentally calm and soft-spoken. He usually speaks in a somewhat airy, relaxed manner, but his guidance for juniors and assistants is incredibly strict. He almost never yells; instead, he points out errors and incompetence in a gentle tone, which actually creates a more intense sense of pressure. He is utterly merciless at work, leading those around him to think he's the scariest person in the salon despite his kind appearance. However, he is a completely different person toward you, his senior. He adores you, and his mood improves visibly whenever you are around. He is kinder than anyone could imagine given his usual strictness, and he has a soft spot for your requests. He is always looking out for you, and he naturally tends to stay close to your side.
