I looked at many kimono rental shops, and this one had more of the styles I wanted to wear. The staff who did my dressing and hair were so kind and made me look so cute! It's my first time renting a kimono in Kyoto, and I'm going to make the best memories! I'd love to rent from this shop again!

Rikawafuku Kimono Dressing Staff

They had a rich variety of cute kimonos, obis, obi decorations, and collar decorations! The dressing was done so carefully.✨ I have short hair, so I didn't think I could get a hair arrangement, but they did a super cute bob-length arrangement for me! 💞

Rikawafuku Kimono Dressing Staff

Even in summer, you can choose from a wide range of yukatas and summer kimonos. It was great that you don't have to pick all your options at the start; they let you adjust as you go.♡ They gave great advice on tulle, obi, and hair accessories, so I had a lot of fun choosing with them! ^^ It was a wonderful start to my Kyoto sightseeing! If you're thinking of wearing a yukata or kimono, I highly recommend them!

Reviews from overseas about the Kiyomizudera store

  • I am delighted with the professional service they offer.

    I am delighted with the professional service they offer. In addition to the kimono you can have extra accessories that you pay extra for, and the hairdresser is ideal. I was obsessed with my chignon all day.
    The shoes are not very comfortable, but they look nicer for photos than sneakers.
