美容室KITTE

About

Found on Okinawa, 美容室KITTE is a hairdresser at 233 Kina, Yomitan, Nakagami District, Okinawa 904-0302, Japan. That puts it in Yomitan, on the central west coast, within reach of the island's main resort and town areas. Naha, Chatan, Onna, Nago, American Village, Kokusai Dori, Okinawa City and Uruma all sit within the usual driving network that connects this part of Okinawa.

美容室KITTE works as a hairdresser, so appointments centre on cutting, colouring and styling rather than a broader retail offer. Its reputation rests on a 4.9 out of 5 average drawn from 9 reviews, a small but consistently strong record. The shop opens Tuesday to Sunday from 09:00 to 19:00, closing on Mondays. A visit fits easily into a day that also takes in the Yomitan coast or a drive south towards Chatan and Naha.

Booking ahead is sensible given the six-day week and the limited daily hours, and the Tuesday to Sunday schedule leaves Monday free for other plans. Mornings from 09:00 tend to suit anyone heading elsewhere on the island later. The salon sits in Kina, a district of Yomitan that drivers pass on the route between Onna and the central towns.

Japanese is the national language, written with kanji characters alongside the hiragana and katakana syllabaries, so a translation app or a few written phrases helps at the counter. Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples stand throughout Japan, sometimes sharing the same grounds, which makes a short detour between appointments worthwhile. Ferries and aircraft serve the smaller islands, while trains connect the four main ones, so onward travel from Okinawa needs a little planning. Tuna, mackerel and squid from Japanese waters appear widely on menus.
