Omkare Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President: Masahito Kurumiya; hereinafter "Omkare"), which operates Japan's No. 1(*) marriage hunting information website with over 1 million members and "marriage hunting parties and street-meets you can attend this month", and also supports love-hunting activities for local governments nationwide, will jointly hold a "Hair Set 1-Day Workshop" for men seeking marriage in their 20s and 30s, themed "Be yourself, a slightly cooler you," with Takara Belmont Corporation (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Osaka; Representative Director, Chairman & President: Hidetaka Yoshikawa; hereinafter Takara Belmont), a manufacturer and seller of beauty salon equipment and cosmetics for professional use, on Friday, April 24, 2026.
Background of the event: The reality of marriage hunting where 2 out of 3 women have "rejected someone due to their appearance"
According to Omkare's latest survey (February 2026), approximately two out of three women (63.2%) have rejected a dating proposal due to the other person's appearance. This figure is about three times higher than that of men (21.1%), indicating that grooming is a crucial factor for men in marriage hunting, determining the success or failure of an encounter.
Furthermore, more than half of women perceive men who take care of their appearance as having "high self-management skills" and "being capable at work," reading internal trust from their external appearance.

To avoid such "marriage hunting failures due to appearance," this workshop aims to design a state where men can "approach marriage hunting with confidence" by using professional techniques and high-quality styling products.
"Cleanliness is important." Even with this understanding, many people feel uneasy every time they look in the mirror, unsure of what exactly to do. To address the real concerns of such marriage-hunting men, Omkare has teamed up with Takara Belmont, a leader in the beauty industry. The workshop's theme is not to imitate a generic "popular hairstyle," but to help men "be themselves, a slightly cooler you" through professional techniques, supporting them to enjoy fateful encounters with a positive mindset.
