The service was fast,efficient and they had a lot of variety for me. Our hair was done well and accessories very pretty. We were a little late for our appointment but they were happy to let us still come for the rest of it.

The whole process was however a little rushed and the place quite messy. Personal belonging bags were sprawled across the floor, shoes heaped in a pile by the lift entrance. There was many options for my daughter (6), granted we had gone later on in the day. She did manage to find something sue looked lovely in.

The lovely staff at Rei made this one a true highlight of our Kyoto trip. They were kind, super efficient, and really looked after me and my daughter. Don’t miss this - it will take your trip to a whole new level.

I am a traveler from China and this was a very bad experience. In the case that the price is more expensive than other similar stores, we still chose this store with the purpose of trusting our compatriots in our country and making it more convenient. But from the beginning to the end, the Chinese shopkeepers, shop assistants, and especially the photographers who took pictures were very impatient, not serious, and unfriendly to us. There was no clerk to help when choosing a kimono, and no one helped to change the clothes for a long time after the selection. My girlfriend's hairstyle did not have a clerk to help communicate with the Japanese hair stylist, and the hairstyle was completely different from the reference photo. . And since I'm a boy, the shop owner has been urging my hair stylist not to be so serious, just to do it casually. Very enthusiastic when receiving money. And the photographer was not serious about shooting, the process of taking pictures was very hasty, and the shooting equipment was very ordinary, not as good as my own. We don't show us the original photos and don't guide the actions. The refined picture after shooting is even more disaster. It took a few days just to do some minor microdermabrasion and add a very ugly filter, even the color of the clothes was distorted. It makes people question his professionalism. After making a modification suggestion, nothing was changed for five days, which made people very angry. In the end, he was asked to return the fee for repairing the pictures. He only refunded a few dollars for each picture. This fee is indeed in line with his strength, and the kimono shop did not help us in this matter from the beginning to the end. something happened. Warmly remind Chinese compatriots and friends from other countries not to come to this store.
我是一名来自中国的旅客,这是非常差的一次體驗。在價格比其他同類型店舖更貴的情況下,我們抱著相信自己國家的同胞和更方便的目的依然選擇了這家店。但是從頭到尾中國的店主,店員,尤其是拍照的攝影師對待我們非常不耐心,不認真,不友好。挑选和服时也没有店员给予帮助,挑选后很久都没有人帮忙进行更换衣服,我女朋友的发型也没有店员帮忙和日本的发型师进行沟通,完全就做成了跟参考照片上不一样的发型。並且由於我是男生,店主一直催促我的发型师不需要這麼認真,隨便弄弄就好。收錢時倒是十分熱情。而攝影師拍攝也很不認真,拍照過程中十分倉促,拍攝設備很一般,還沒我自己的好。不給我們看拍照原片也不對動作進行指導。拍攝後的精修圖更是災難。花了幾天時間就只是進行一些細微的磨皮和加了一個十分難看的滤镜,甚至衣服顏色都失真了。讓人十分質疑他的專業性。在提出修改建議後,五天時間什麼都沒改,讓人十分生氣。最後讓他退修圖的費用,他每張只退了幾塊錢,這個費用確實和他的實力相符合,而和服店也從頭到尾沒有在這件事上幫助我們,收完錢就不管事情了。溫馨提醒中國同胞和其他国家的朋友们,千萬不要來這家店。
