How to take a bath in Japan - Onsen/Sentou edition!

Hey guys! Taking a bath in Japan is a bit different than in the west. Here is a brief rundown on some of the basics! bathing culture/rituals are important in Japan, and can differ slightly between regions. That being said, this video should provide you with the minimum in regard to etiquette that you will need to enjoy what Japan has to offer.

Ok so...101,000 views...wild! I had no idea this would garner as much attention as it has and I suppose I should probably start making some videos again. I'll try to find the time to make a few more educational videos on things/places I enjoy in Japan. it is rainy season (Tsuyu) at the moment in Japan, but in a few weeks it should clear up and I should be able to get out and about and recording. Thanks everyone for all of the comments (some of them absolutely hilarious, btw) and for all the views.

You are so fine

[@appartement2046]

I clicked on this video just by the thumbnail alone. The video content did not disappoint!

[@ABlueDahlia]

Exactly! lol

[@garyboy7135]

2:55 is the most played time stamp. You're welcome.

[@coolestandrealest]

do you have an OF version of this? 🥲

[@horus808]

Yes please

[@danknato8485]

🤣

[@coolestandrealest]

@@danknato8485 is that a yes or yes? 😅

[@rehetbutler]

Tthe wet towel shows a lot! ;)

[@cupidok2768]

Who is the guy in this video

[@petenorton7887]

Thank you for your very informative explanation. I wish I’m experiencing it in Japan with you. I know that there are a lot of people who did not follow the procedure and culture (like in a Korean spa in the states).

[@afrotier]

Thank you for being straight to the point! My special brain needs the step by step 😅

[@markylon]

STRAIGHT LMAO he's NOT straight

[@afrotier]

@@markylon Ya know, that sentence did sound a little off. People aren't straight lines, we have lots of shapes to us. I'll edit that "and" out, so that sounds better. Thanks, Mark.

[@ineedthekrup5333]

@7:36 I had to laugh... Hell, if I looked like that I too would let it all hang out.😋

[@higgsboson5741]

This is the fanservice episode

[@davidlogan4329]

Have experienced this. It's quite weird and very difficult for a tall person to get down to the level to sit on the baby stool. Your 'wedding vegetables' terminology broke me up!

[@kylekyle7386]

I thought at one point he was going to take that towel off.

[@rehetbutler]

We all were.

[@a.skywalker6340]

Thanks for the thorough explanation. I wasn’t sure if it was appropriate to wash private areas in front of everybody. Although, I’m still not sure how to go about that while on a stool.

[@xXxSkyViperxXx]

so basically, the bath tub is really just to relax like it were a jacuzzi pool and the shower and bucket is really where you clean and rinse yourself and the stool is just an added extra thing for you to sit at i guess...

[@pugsandcoffeeplease]

A) WHO TF is this?! B) When you see a lady in the reflection - 💔. C) Congratulations. 😁

[@rsarubenloco]

thank God you are there to explain

[@jamescc2010]

Thx for showing in great simple details.

[@buggiemara4902]

Respecfully staring

[@D3c3pTion]

This is not in fact how to take a bath in Japan, why because he didn’t take off the towel.

[@paulsomething8]

7:29 Wedding vegetables lmfao

[@Grant-dx3qt]

WEDDING VEGETABLES

[@eld4726]

What "hotel" is this and in what town? (Great vlog btw!) Was in Japan 3 years ago and can't wait to go back. LOVED the onsens.

[@marlone6497]

Hey I am your 146th follower

[@tigergreg8]

Very well explained. Thanks.

[@shawnhampton8503]

Darn towel. ;-)

[@axelhyst]

Solid episode!

[@haveagoodtimeswithsanit]

keep going mate.

[@billmurray7676]

But it's just a quick shower before the bath right? otherwise, how can you properly shower everywhere while sitting down?

[@iamunknownperiod3355]

I was quite surprised about the hair thing. I wasn't aware of that and I've only really been to 1 sentou which is in a hotel (i did go at least 5 times during my stay tho). I always saw some Japanese people touching their hair and while no one is dunking their whole head into the water, quite a few tend to go as low as possible from time to time so I didn't see it as something not to do. Anyway, at the risk of sounding like a creep, do you perhaps have some socials? I have been living in Japan for a few years now and would like to connect with some people.

europeans and descendants are so tall of course the door is not suited to that height. most asians are around 5 or 4 feet usually

[@user-be5qg7mr1s]

my favorite episode! 😍 great chest

[@JoshAbens]

Holy wowzo! Awwoooooga

[@bobcrankypants]

I fell for the thirst trap and was quenched... 🤤

[@attomicchicken]

So you don't put the little stool and water bowl in a position that would signal for them to wash them? Don't know how I'd feel about sitting on a stool someone sat in with their bare ass if it wasn't cleaned first.

[@spaceforfreedom12]

Cool

[@brianc7635]

You think it's a baby door because you're a big guy and you see it from your perspective. If you see it from the Japanese perspective, it's nothing "baby" about it. It's a normal-sized door.

[@ABlueDahlia]

I mean... sir. Hoottttt.

[@jadedrealist]

When's the only fans version?

[@Vizible21]

I hear a woman laughing taking the video: Me: 🙄

[@itsjayepark]

[@stevebedford6814]

It’s a bath for god sakes.

[@alanday5255]

It sound highly complex and annoying.

[@chrthewrestler2301]

[@bogarte7587]

The video is so PG. 😂

[@markylon]

1 minute wasted about the door. GET OVER IT, it's low. FFS.

[@emillio7545]
