Overweight for dancers? Ugh. That pisses me off. Not all men like slender women!!!

Which site did you check out?

Sorry to offend you, lol. It's true though, to work in great clubs you have to be better than average and MUCH better than the average woman.

^^^You didn't offend me. The concept that you have to be skinny to be attractive offends me.

There was 1 time our owner came in and gave a razor to this 1 dancer who grows all her body hair--that I believe should be banned, but still somehow she makes money and since they don't fire any1 who makes them money they keep her earthy I'm from Europe where it's ok for a woman to have armpit hair employeed. However I nicknamed her chia-chia-chiga and all the dancers do now 2 and agree that she's just a little to scarey hairy. It would be 1 thing if she just trimmed or wasn't as hairy as she is with dreads and all no kidding about it.

I'm all for woman's lib and I even went thur the whole I'm a butch dyke let me wore my grow hair thing way back before I was a dancer, but it never grew like that and I kept it maintained as the prettyboi I was it was probably so well conditioned it was softer then the hair on my head. However I'm glad I grew out of that phase and just think body hair is nasty--even on men in my opinion, but definately on a dancer. It should be a no-no. I can't want to electrocist my body hair off completely till then I wax and nair and shave whatever I have to 2-3 times a week if need be.

On the subject of weight. I don't believe a woman has to be skinny to be attractive, but I do think that dancers should have healthy fit bodies and ideally attractive figures are a plus so obesse is not any stripper standard and even if some clubs do hire all type as some men do like all type there is a reason many clubs have scales and weight standards.

My new club...one of the managers just likes to pick on me. Who knows why. But he's always criticizing either my outfits or my makeup. ::) Uh ok, this is what I wore and how I did my makeup at some of the top clubs on the east coast, but it's not good enough for YOUR club? Get bent. ::)

I was so pissed the other night. I'd done this purple sparkley cat-eye look and was getting compliments from other girls and custies on it. It looked awesome and exotic...and then along comes The One Who Always Has a Problem, and he said I "wasn't pretty enough" and needed more makeup. So he made me get my eyes re-done by the makeup artist, who then made me look like an ugly drag queen. Srsly, my face looked like a man in drag when she was done. I was LIVID. >:(

I've personally never had a problem but I've seen a lot of girls get talked to... one manager I worked with did hair, makeup, nail, and accessory checks before we were allowed on the floor.

However, tanning was never an issue, some girls look fabulous pale and there are a lot of custies who dig creamy complexions. I think as long as your skin looks clear and healthy, who cares? But some people think all dancers should look a certain way.

Speaking objectively, Ava, you are difinately not an entertainer that needs an apperance pep talk... over the past couple of days, I've seen a couple of hot messes up in that club. They need to lay off you cute girls and work on those clueless ones.

Wait, what?! Your club FORCES you to wear makeup?! And more if THEY don't like yours?

Ohhhhh, HELLLLLLLL NO!>:(

I wear makeup and hair to match the outfits I choose to wear. If I want glamour, I will wear heavy makeup, if I want a girl next door look, I wear neutral natural colors and lighter eye liner, if I want fun flirty, I wear pinks, and total sex kitten dark smokey eyes.

I guess I am too old and have been in this game too long to listen to asshole mgrs and deal with that neutering drama, lol.:P

The only thing I was told was to grow my hair out or wear a wig. I has longer hair and got pissed at it one day so I just put it in a pony tail and chopped it off, which, if you have ever done that, it looks like utter crap, so I was told to grow it out or get it cut "nicely."

Which is still overweight for dancers, lol.

And the site I checked had a different set up than that one, BTW.

No way is 5'4, 128 overweight for dancers! That's how much I weigh!

Aside from making girls change because certain outfits don't meet requirements, I've never heard anything. The club hires hot chicks, so long as they follow dress code they trust us to know what we're doing.

Thanks Mia ;D! I compromised and got a little bit of a tan (or what I consider a little bit of a tan). However I don't think I am going to keep it up after the week is over. Being kinda pale is just part of who I am LOL!

I have to say you did a great job on the haircuts and styling, Mia. I saw a couple of girls look totally amazing after you were done with them! You have the skillz woman!!

I can't imagaine any clubs telling you to change. You have that beautiful exotic look that so many of us would LOVE to have :P !

Dallas is the toughest crowd I've ever dealt with. I've learned the hard way that whats made me money in other cities does nothing for me here. At first, I thought it was just *me* and that there just wasn't room for me here.

Then I started getting constructive criticism and advice from a newbie waitress (of all people!). Once I took her advice, I saw a huge leap in my earnings....... during the 'bad' season even.

We don't always see ourselves the way others do, so I welcome 2nd opinions.

Would you mind telling what the constructive criticism was? I work in Dallas, and I feel the tough crowd thing a lot. So I'm wondering if there is anything I could work work on...

I was told that I'm beautiful (by management) but I need to straighten my hair cuz it was very big and wild and teased out with a lot of hairspray too, haha. This was my own personal style that I wore every day in real life....Cuz I kind of have a funky style.. but it didn't "work" for the stripclub, at least not to the mainstream population. Anyways I did that and when i straightened it out and all I started to actually make more money too. I think it's good to follow the advice of others because sometimes we don't see what others see and they can sometimes have good advice unless it's girls who say "oh your hair looks awesome/better like that" when it really doesnt cuz they don't want u to be prettier than them.
