Urisen Etiquette & Rules — For a Great Experience

Following proper etiquette ensures that both you and the cast member have a comfortable, enjoyable time. Japanese service culture places high value on mutual respect, and urisen is no exception. Here are the essential rules every visitor should know.

1. Always Shower Before Service

This is the most important rule. You will be asked to shower before any service begins — even if you just showered at your hotel. This is standard hygiene practice and a sign of respect. The shower is typically available in the room (shop-based) or in your hotel bathroom (delivery).

Tip: Brush your teeth as well, and make sure your nails are trimmed short. Good grooming makes a big difference.

2. Condom Use Is Mandatory

For any penetrative services, condoms are required without exception. This protects both you and the cast member. Reputable shops provide condoms, but you can bring your own preferred brand as well.

Never pressure a cast member to skip condom use. This is a firm boundary at all professional shops.

3. No Photography or Recording

Taking photos, videos, or audio recordings of the cast member is strictly prohibited. This protects the privacy and safety of the staff. Violating this rule can result in immediate termination of your session without a refund, and you may be banned from the shop.

Keep your phone put away during the session.

4. No Stalking or Unwanted Contact

Do not attempt to contact cast members through personal channels outside of the shop's official booking system. Do not follow them, look up their personal information, or visit the shop area to find them outside of work hours. This is a serious violation of boundaries.

5. Be Clean and Well-Groomed

• Shower thoroughly (body, hair, and intimate areas)
• Brush your teeth or use mouthwash
• Trim your fingernails and toenails
• Wear clean clothes and underwear
• Avoid strong cologne — light or no fragrance is preferred
• If you have been drinking heavily, consider rescheduling

6. Be On Time

Japanese services run on a strict schedule. If you are late, your session time may be shortened accordingly — the end time usually remains fixed. Aim to arrive 5 minutes early for shop-based visits. For delivery, be ready in your room at the agreed time.

7. Respect Boundaries

If a cast member says they don't provide a certain service or declines a request, accept it gracefully. Each cast member has their own boundaries, and pushing or negotiating is considered very rude. Check the cast profile and confirm options during booking if specific services are important to you.

8. Communicate Kindly

Even with a language barrier, your tone and body language matter. Be friendly, patient, and respectful. A simple “arigatou” (thank you) goes a long way. If you need to communicate something specific, a translation app on your phone can help.

9. Tipping

Japan is not a tipping culture, and tips are not required or expectedat urisen shops. However, if you had an especially great experience, a small cash tip (¥1,000 – ¥3,000) is a welcome gesture of appreciation. Hand it directly to the cast member at the end of your session.

10. Leave Quietly

When your session ends, leave promptly and quietly. Thank the cast member and the staff. If you'd like to visit again, mention it to the staff — they'll be happy to help you book your next session.
