Left side features text reading "excellence of the hairstyle." The right side has an iillustration of a handsome male character drawn in an anime style. He is wearing a fashinable suit and posing with his hands in his pockets looking down. His hair is done in a chonmage or typical samurai topknot with the hair tied up and the front of his head shaven. The pose is reminiscent of a fashion model.
