Pasties are my worst enemy.
So I'm brand new to dancing , but so far I really enjoy it. My biggest problem is having to wear pasties ! Our house mom has them stocked up always, but they are the worst things in the world. I CAN NOT GET THEM OFF. They're so ugly and basic. When my nipples get hard , the pasties shrink-wrap around them and harden. It looks ridiculous. I asked if we could wear our own , reusable pasties but she said only over the ones she provides.
So here's my problem , I can't get the glue off. I tried soaking in a hot bath, rubbing coconut oil, baby oil, vitamin e oil , rubbing alcohol, hairspray, soap, baking soda and alcohol , I've tried scrubbing it off. Nothing works!! It just gets stickier. I woke up this morning and my tee shirt was glued to my nipples bc the glue was still on them. And ttust me when I said I tried everything I could think of.
So I asked the girls I work with , how they get them off. They all looked at me like I'm crazy, and they all said they just peel them right off.
Here I am , the next day , 16+ hours later, with sticky fuzz ball covered nipples that are red and peeling ...
Help please ?!!!! I can't get the glue off and it's driving me mad. I wish I could show all of you a picture of my boobs right now. It's absurd.
Re: Pasties are my worst enemy.
use fabric paint! its what i use at my club, and it makes your nipples hard in a good way and if you get the dimensional tulip fabric paint, you can see right through it while keeping things legal
Re: Pasties are my worst enemy.
Maggie gave you the advice I was coming to give you. Also, I didn't used to go all crazy getting it off either. If there is some reason you need your nipples completely clean while not at work I guess it matters but I used to use paint with gold glitter in it and didn't give a shit if a little stayed on cause I was at the club half the time.
Re: Pasties are my worst enemy.
That's great advice ! But my club still makes me wear the pasties they provide under it no matter what. I can't get them off and that's the problem. It doesn't make sense to me.
Re: Pasties are my worst enemy.
Maybe get a doctors note saying you are allergic to that kind of pastie.
Your nipples are porous and to me it doesn't seem healthy to have glue residue remaining as those chemicals could sink into your pores.
Idk. I would Ask a doctor. I'm surprised baby oil doesn't remove it. Oils remove all kinds of residue.
Re: Pasties are my worst enemy.
I would just bring my own pasties anyway and wear them, and just avoid the dressing room as much as humanly possible. Housemom may be lying through her teeth because she wants you to buy from her. Do the managers back her up on this? If you haven't asked yet, I wouldn't -- I'd just keep my head down and go about my business, draw as little attention as possible. If anyone makes a fuss, maybe offer to "buy" a pair of her pasties anyway, while still wearing your own. Explain you're allergic to the adhesive, or something else in the pastie, and they should back off. Legally, if you need to wear pasties, the law just wants your nipples covered. The law cares jack about where you buy them from. So there's no legal reason to only buy them from the house mom, *especially* if hers cause you discomfort. If all she's after is money, "paying her to go away" might work.
If not, coming from someone with stupid sensitive nipples, I'd probably just find a different club. Nipples are non-negotiable for me. I always get super suspicious when house moms are all, "I made them myself!" because I'm allergic to latex, and half the time they use adhesive or material with latex and don't realize it/don't care because lyke omg they *need* that $5... plus $10 from each of the 40+ girls working that night... plus the base wage the club pays them to be there... smdh. Housemoms make out like bandits sometimes, I swear.
Re: Pasties are my worst enemy.
You ladies all make excellent points and have great advice ! Except .. house momma doesn't charge for pasties , and they do nipple check before I'm allowed out of the dressing room. Maybe my club is just strict as hell , but the pasties are the only problem I'm having. I worked the other night and after I put the pasties on, I covered them in hair spray .. they came off a little easier that night but the glue still remained .. I've done so much research but nothing works.
Maybe I'll just find a different club to work in , but I feel like all the clubs in central Ohio are awful ..
If anyone here has worked in Ohio lately I would love some input :)
