G'day fellas. I want to head to the tradition Japanese bathhouse sometime next week and was wondering who would be free to join me? It costs around $30 for 2 hours in the baths and lounge room. Let me know if you are interested so I can book in a time!

Aug 12, 2013I've been a couple of times. It's really relaxing and the staff are very friendly and they will usually ask you if you have been before and if not they will go through it all for you but Basically when you arrive you take your shoes off at the entrance, then they give you a towel and these really loose comfy shorts and wrap around shirt to put on afterwards when you go up to the lounge. Then they take you to the mens area into the change room, you get a locker with a key to put all your stuff in. You can then strip naked and head into the mens bath area where you can grab little tub and a wash cloth and go over to the washing area and have a seat while you give yourself a good scrub down (there is shower gel and shampoo you can use) then you can head into the bath and relax or there is the dry sauna as well you basically spend an hour in there chilling naked its great. if you get thirsty there is a cold drink fountain in the changeroom.then after an hour you rinse off and then get changed into the clothes they gave you, there is hair products, cotton buds, brushes, hairdryer, moisturiser... everything to cleanse and groom yourself. then you can head upstairs to the lounge, the floor is covered in tatami mats (they are quite comfy to sit or lay on) and you can just chill up there for about an hour with a japanese beer or sake and they have some snack food like crackers and cheese, rice snacks etc (nothing big though so not great if you are hungry). Then you just head back down and get changed back into your normal clothes and put your towel and robes in the washing baskets and go to the front desk to pay for it. It is seriously one of the most relaxing experiences and so nice to be nude. I can't make it this wednesday but possibly might be able to make it next wednesday during the day, will get back to you.

Aug 12, 2013All of the details seem to have been well covered. I'll only add 1) that I love this place. Whether I go alone or share the time with a nudist mate, I always leave feeling so good and de-stressed. I can't recommend the place enough. Even when I go alone I often end up having a nice conversation with someone, and 2) I've met up with other nudists from here at this place. It's great/convenient if you're not able to host or if you're a bit weary of first-time meet-ups. If I weren't laid up a bit this week I'd definitely be joining all of you there.ReactReply - MEMemberOriginal PosterAug 15, 2013
