I'll give you the bottom line up front: Kawagoe soapland pay.
Let me walk you through it step by step.
My experience and this topic
From my 20s into my 40s, I've walked this world the whole way through. And this topic is a problem I've had to face head-on, again and again.
ElonThe first time I went to a soapland in Yoshiwara I was 25. That was back before I'd gotten the pearls put in. These days, the reactions when I go in with the pearls are one of the little pleasures. Conversations with a girl who actually asks "what is this?" turn out to be surprisingly fun.
Points you should know
- Nailing the basics comes first — advanced stuff only stands on top of the fundamentals
- Stacking up experience is the best teacher — reading alone won't make it stick
- Find a shop you can trust — to cut down the time you waste wavering
ElonI don't aim to conquer every soapland in the country, but I've made the rounds of each region's "signature soaplands." My conclusion: service quality and cleanliness don't correlate. Even budget joints can have godlike service.
The option I'm pushing right now
Elon42, single, living alone. When pretty much your entire paycheck disappears into fuzoku, you naturally develop an eye for the thing. That's not bragging and it's not regret — I'm just writing it down as a fact.
Bottom line, I recommend paying First Class Ruby a visit. The service quality, the ease of booking, and the overall quality are all consistently solid.
