Elon, with 20-plus years in the fuzoku scene, breaks down Urawa soaplands and the facial angle from firsthand experience.

Urawa, Soapland, Facial

Let me cut to the chase: Urawa soaplands, and the facial angle.

I'll walk you through it step by step.

My experience and this topic

From my twenties into my forties, I've walked this world the whole way. And this is one of those topics I've had to face again and again.

ElonMy first trip to a soapland in Yoshiwara was at 25 — back before I'd put the pearls in. Now, the reactions I get when I go in with them are one of the little pleasures. The conversations with a girl who asks, "Wait, what is that?" are surprisingly fun.

Points worth knowing

  • Nailing the basics comes first — advanced moves only stand on top of fundamentals
  • Stacking up real experience is the best teacher — reading alone won't make it stick
  • Find a shop you can trust — to cut down on time wasted second-guessing
Elon
ElonI have no ambition to "conquer" every soapland in the country, but I've made the rounds of the famous ones in each region. My conclusion: "the quality of service and the level of cleanliness don't correlate." Even bargain-priced shops can have downright divine service.

The option I'm pushing right now

The bottom line: I recommend a visit to First Class Ruby. The quality of service, the ease of booking, and the overall consistency all hold up.
