Experience Hands-On Learning at the Care Beauty Academy's Simulation Events Across Japan

Unique Hands-On Experience at the Care Beauty Academy

The Care Beauty Academy, operated by Mirai Project Co., Ltd. located in Shibuya, Tokyo, is offering an exciting limited-time event called "Care Beauty Mini Experience" across six locations in Japan—Tokyo, Yokohama, Omiya, Nagoya, Umeda, and Fukuoka—from June 8 to June 30. This initiative aims to immerse participants in the elderly's perspective, improving their understanding and approach towards beauty treatments designed for older adults.

As the Academy celebrates ten years of operations, they emphasize that training goes beyond teaching basic makeup and nail art skills. Their focus lies in fostering an empathetic connection with seniors, enabling trainees to see the world through their eyes. This event is particularly designed for those new to caregiving or beauty industries—over half of the Academy's students have no prior experience. Most enter the program with the sincere desire to make seniors smile, but often find it challenging to grasp the physical limitations that elderly individuals experience.

Understanding the Challenge

The motivation behind this program is clear: creating genuine smiles on elderly faces. However, many students struggle to comprehend what seniors actually feel in their daily lives. Preconceived notions cannot replace lived experiences, especially when it comes to understanding mobility issues, fatigue, or sensory limitations of older age. To bridge this gap, the Care Beauty Academy is offering participants the chance to engage in simulation exercises that bring these sensations to life.

Experience Details

During the initial ten to fifteen minutes of the event, participants are equipped with a special elderly simulation suit, which includes weighted vests, wrist and ankle weights, and thick gloves. These props simulate the physical challenges that many elderly individuals face. For example, participants will apply eyeshadow while feeling the constraint of movement caused by the added weight, gaining insights into the significant differences their elderly clients experience.

Once the physical experience concludes, the attendees will participate in a standard information session about the Care Beauty industry and the Academy itself. This session will enlighten newcomers about how they can contribute positively to this field.

Invitation for Media Coverage

The Care Beauty Academy is also welcoming media representatives for experiential coverage. This hands-on opportunity allows journalists to grasp firsthand the physical sensations experienced by the elderly and to produce insightful content about the program. Opportunities for visual documentation of classes and interviews with students are also available.
