My favorite ryokans (traditional Japanese inns) in Kyoto. As a tour guide, I have done extensive research on what hotels are best for every type of traveler. Feel free to take a look and browse everything from luxury to family friendly ryokans! For each hotel I have included the average price range per night, location/nearest station, and average google review rating.

All the products I use for voluminous, hydrated, and healthy hair and scalp. My hair type is fine, a little wavy and dry. I am currently focused on strengthening my hair from the roots to the ends with an emphasis on promoting hair growth.

I have been living in Japan for five years. When I first arrived I had a major hormonal breakout likely caused by stress and the differences in diet and climate compared to the US. I made it my quest to ask as many Japanese women I saw with good skin which products they used. Because of this, I took my skin from downright terrible to smooth, clear and predictable! Some of these products you may know of from viral videos on TikTok and Instagram (they got their popularity for a reason) but others are lesser known products from j and k beauty that have real results.
