Sannomiya features a considerable number of storefront-type sex clubs, including pink salons and health clubs.

Another red-light district is Fukuhara-cho.

There are almost no pink salons in Fukuhara-cho, and as it is centred around soaplands, if you want to go to a pink salon, it is better to visit Sannomiya or Kitanozasa-dori.

Exploring Variances Between Oppai Pubs and Pink Salons

Both oppai pubs and pink salons play a role in the sex industry, offering distinct sexual services that might not be familiar to everyone. Here's a breakdown of the dissimilarities between the two establishments.

Oppai Pubs

Also known as topless bars, where patrons can touch and suck the breasts of female staff. Customers can engage in intimate activities like making out and touching the upper body of cast members. Oppai pubs do not provide full sexual intercourse, and patrons are restricted from touching private areas. Courses typically last between 20 to 30 minutes, with pricing ranging from 3,000 to 6,000 JPY.

Pink Salons

No specific area, such as a shower room, is designated for cleaning; only the customer's private areas are wiped down and cleaned. Exclusive provision for oral sex, with some shops allowing additional touching of the girl's body and activities like 69, but full sexual intercourse is not permitted. Recommended for individuals seeking a brief and expedited sexual encounter. The price range usually falls between 3,000-5,000 JPY for a 30-minute session, offering a more affordable option compared to other establishments in the sex industry. In summary, while both oppai pubs and pink salons operate within the realm of the sex industry, they cater to diverse preferences, with oppai pubs focusing on topless interaction and touching, and pink salons providing specialized services at a more economical rate.

Navigating Pink Salons as a Foreigner

Consider bringing a Japanese friend or someone fluent in Japanese when visiting. Their presence can assist in negotiations with the staff and reassure them of your commitment to following the rules.

Show Respect

As a foreigner, it's crucial to be mindful of potential cultural sensitivities and treat the staff and women at pink salons with the utmost respect. Align your actions with their comfort and preferences, as any disrespectful behavior may lead to expulsion and a ban from the premises. Embracing local traditions and customs will enhance your evening out.

Know the Regulations

Access to pink salons typically requires being an adult in Japan, where the legal age is 20 years old. While some may admit 18-year-olds, it's a rare exception. Understand the legal ambiguity these establishments operate within due to anti-prostitution laws and the potential legal consequences of engaging in specific services, which may include arrest by the police.

Guard Against Scams

Prioritize understanding service prices at pink salons to avoid overcharging. Research reputable establishments to ensure they have no ties to illegal organizations like the yakuza. Prioritize your safety and confidently decline anything that feels uncomfortable. Staying vigilant will contribute to a safe and enjoyable experience in Kobe's pink salons.

Language Barrier

While fluency in Japanese isn't mandatory, learning a few basic phrases can demonstrate sincerity. If possible, bring along a native or local friend to introduce you. Alternatively, having translation apps on your phone can be invaluable for effective communication. Bridging the language gap will enhance your overall experience and facilitate better communication with staff and companions.
