Beauty Days!!!

Yokosuka Travel Blog › entry 4 of 7 › view all entries

Well I'm stationed in Japan for 3 years and at first I hated it, but now I'm starting to enjoy the culture. I haven't seen to much, but I'm starting to. You have to get away from base though. If you stay on base it can get very depressing.

Beauty Days!!!

Well this is for the ladies who may get stationed here or they are just visiting.  There are tanning beds here to start.  EXPENSIVE!!!!  Right outside of base there are two tanning shops.  The first one I went to was 2,000 yen a session, which is about $20.00 depending on the yen rate.  The other one I found you can buy a package for 30 days, it's about $143.00.  There are a few good places to get your hair done.  You could go on base, but there normally booked.  Right out side of base is a shop called "Romi Romi", they do a good job, just bring a picture of what you want.  Prices are about $70 for color and $30 for a cut.  There are a lot of nail shops (big surprise).  Shopping for clothes is not so good, unless you are short and tiny.  Being 5'10 is not good out here. I haven't been to Tokyo yet, i'm sure there are a lot more shops out there.

This is awesome info... I'm moving there in October and hadn't even thought of the clothes, being 5'9" and curvy would make shopping a holy nightmare. I was just going to ditch everything but... maybe not.

Hi HHATCHER,
I just found this site the other day. I will be traveling to Yokosuka next week to visit my daughter. I am really looking forward to the trip. I will get to meet my grandson for the first time. He is nine months old. I am looking forward to taking him out during the day and visiting the area sites. Do you have any suggestions or advice for me? I will be traveling from South Carolina. I have traveled to several countries but I've never been to Asia. Any suggestions or advice is appreciated.

Thanks,
a_sammons
