Hiroshima, Japan Hair & Beauty
Soap girls are usually limited to 20 years and over, but there are some regions where they are 18+. Because of the law, these places, including “Fashion Health” stores are not allowed to recruit people under the age of 18. There are many shops that hire amateurs and others veterans. Before I left the states I had my wife take pictures of my head after a haircut. I printed them out and carry them with me every time I need a haircut. It was very expensive at first, but finally found one close to home and it is only 1500 yen.
If the soap girl buys anything on her own accord, the shop benefits and makes profit from it. For example, the store only makes profit from admission fee and if the soap girls perform well the likelihood of repeat 広島 メンエス おすすめ and newcomers are likely to increase.

Otherwise you get a cut with layers that droop, or a halo of wisps on the top of your head reminiscent of Big Bird... First haircut I got in Japan I practised a long time on what I needed to say. Obviously got something wrong as I didn't need shampoo for a good while after that. Sitting in this chair allows for girls to easily get access to your whole body.
These days I usually go for the QB/1000yen deal, found a good one close by staff knows me and we chat. When I first got here I used my j-wife as an interpreter. Never seen a sign stating that they will refuse service to non-japanese speakers. I remember the first time I got a haircut in Japan, I brought a picture of me with shorter hair, and I also took a picture of my current hair, I drew lines on the picture to show how short I wanted.
The last time I didn't need to show the pictures. So, another item on my list I was able to conquer. I like the shop and the people who work there are very nice even though I am their only Gaijin. I've been going to the same full-service barber for ten years and it's the most relaxing two hours of my month. In luxurious Soaplands where customer rate is high, soap girls frequently get “high rewards,” whether it be cash incentives or something else. On the flip side, in lower end shops, soap girls sometimes offer a “free” service charge to attract patrons.
I'm not bothered by the ¥5,000 price since I used to pay $100 in LA. Also the 1000 yen jobs are ok if you go for clippers. Old geezer alsways tries to massage my head - has to be beaten off.....
Even better, you can pay securely in advance and get appointment reminders sent straight to your phone. My first haircut in Okinawa barber shop was alright. It is good that the barber used English language. In principle, soap girls are managed by individual business owners. This is unlike AV actresses where they are managed through an agency.
However, I cut my own hair in Japan, because for some reason, it's ten times more expensive here to get a haircut than anywhere else. From a language-learning perspective, the great thing about getting a haircut is that it’s something you probably do at regular intervals. Each time you go, you get to practice virtually the same language again. You tell the stylist what you want, and they probably ask you similar questions each time.
Soaplands came to existence after the laws of 1956 when explicit full service prostitution was outlawed in the country. To skirt these laws the operators changed their ways and continued operating their existing brothels as bath houses which still exist to this day.
