The manager of Love Nail Okinawa, Miyuki Tate, says, “I used to work at a nail salons both on and off base for a long time before opening this salon. I thought I would like to offer my skills in a great relaxing place. I especially wanted a place where customers could watch Okinawa’s beautiful ocean while getting pampered. I’m sure if I were a worker at a salon, all I could do for the customer would be what the salon’s rules dictate, but in my own salon I can do my best while creating a place for my customers to relax and enjoy. I can also add a touch of Japanese sensitivity to the experience. The customer’s satisfaction is my best pleasure. Tate explains.

She’s also happy to see male customers who are visiting her salon in increasing numbers.
