Re: "a tip for my beauty"
Huh...interesting. I think I'm gonna have to try that tomorrow night. Now I'm thinking of other things they should be tipping me for as well......
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
Random! I'ma just start saying that when guys check me out at the grocery store. :D
Ohhh...and maybe at work too.
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
I remember Ginger on the HBO series G String Divas using the line "Do I get a present extra"?
Asking for a tip when getting paid is cool. Either the customer will give you a few dollars, or say no. It does add up.
As Lena said, it makes her about $40 extra on a good night. If a dancer works 20 days a month/5 days a week that is an extra $800 a month. $800 is a small Louis Vuitton purse, right? ;D
It is ABSOLUTELY worth doing.
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
I have used the same idea with another approach. works and dollars do add up. each and everyone counts somedays more than others.
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
Sounds like a good hustle to me. Yet don't be surprised if a jerk uses that hustle as an excuse to be cruel.
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
I can see the reply now...
"A tip for your beauty? Yeah, sure... get breast implants!"

lol, I was at a restaurant yesterday & for some reason (okay I had on some good jeans) a bunch of guys kept eyeing me. I was thinking, if this were a strip club I'd be making bank.

Hahaha... I'm glad I'm not the only one that figures out what everything equates to in Louis Vuitton :)
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
Lol^^^^ I do it the opposite way. I think in lapdances. Ok. I want that purse? I only need to do 40 dances baby!
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
It's a toughie! I do it when I'm away...I'm shameless: "do I get a tip?", "you can tip me you know!" &etc.
But at my home clubs, I'm way too self conscious to do that! Don't know why, I just figure it'll get aroudn that I'm panhandling for tips or whatever.
I think it's a good technique overall, though.
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
heh- i use this technique sometimes too and actually did tonight, and asked for a tip after a $100 dance in vip and the guy gave me $2. i was kinda laughing and at the same time totally llike ugh, man, you are an awful, awful tipper, asshole! that's not even 10%!!!
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
Whoa big spender LOL. Try not to spend those 2 whole dollars in one place. Pace yourself.
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
I'm sure there's a great, adorable pick-up line in here somewhere. Like if he turns you down for a dance (especially if he's said something like "No, I don't want a dance right now, maybe later, but DAMN you're hot"), you could say "If you don't want the booty, how 'bout tipping for the beauty?" or some other cheestastic rhyme.
I've used cheesy pickup lines for years...sometimes they backfire (uncomfortable silence, rolling of eyes, etc.) but they can also be a great icebreaker. At the very least, you both have something to laugh at together within 15 seconds of meeting :couple:
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
It doesn't matter how small the tip. If EVERY guy who buys dances is asked for a tip in a nice way with a smile, the dollars ALL add up. $2 adds up over the course of a week, doesn't it?
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
I dont' think I'll try to on a person who declines a dance from me. But I will to a person who buys a dance.
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
Every now and then I will do this when a guy says he normally doesnt get dances but thinks I'm pretty, and I say, how about a tip for how pretty I am? And I get anywhere from 5-20 bucks, no kidding. But this is usually on a slow night when even the guy knows it is slow and is doing it because he realizes that the pace has slowed down and t has thus made him not want to dance but he still wants to show some appreciation. I'd say use it sparingly!!!!

Re: "a tip for my beauty"
I'm going to start that. Great ideas.
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
I'd try that. I think asking for tips is OK if it's done in a pleasant way, but I've seen girls be really aggro with it. I was sitting with a pretty decent customer the other night who bought a dance for his friend, and afterwards the dancer came up to him and said, "Tips are appreciated." He didn't understand, so she just kept repeating the same line with an icy smile. He really didn't want to tip her (he wasn't a cheap guy, just didn't like her approach) but she just stood there until he gave her a dollar. Somehow the whole thing was very tacky and a big buzzkill. This customer is in the club fairly often and still comments about how much he disliked being asked for the tip -- he will probably never buy a dance from this girl again. So while it might make you an extra $40 a night, if you do it in a way that makes people uncomfortable, seems like it could lose you money in the long run.
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
i was kinda uncomfortable as i said this line thurs night, but i found if i said it followed by a giggle, "how about a tip for my beauty heehee" it worked.
and with the intelligent custy type, esp if i got into a "why you are such a better custy than these other losers" convo (which keeps them there longer, dancing) id say that "and even with the guys who tell me how 'u so hawt baby' i just add, and how about a tip for my beauty, and they do!" and every single time i did this, the guy would laugh WITH me at the absurdity of those types and those comments and then adding that hint about a tip, they would tip me too! added up to around $40. all in all, so long as it's not a *demanding* tone being used, this is a great thing to say as he's already giving you money for a dance.
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
Cinn,
I think it actually works better on those types who tip stage and buy girl's drinks but don't get dances too often. If you ask after a guy get a dance with you, it may come across as if you are money grubbing after he just paid you and that you didn't appreciate the money he just gave you. And, yeah, it's better to say it in a way where it seems like you don't really expect it anf you're just being cheeky.
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
I agree with london. Do this to the guys who think you are pretty. As one of the other girls said, they could use it as an opportunity to be a real meanie. Some guys go to stripclubs specifically to be jerks to pretty girls 'cause they otherwise could not have us. I could see these types saying something like "But I don't even think you're cute..."
Or, you could just use my way--"Gimme some money bitch!" No one ever expects that to come out of my mouth, so it works for me. : )
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
This tip has made me some x-tra bucks thanks:o)
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
Interesting approach....I will have to think about trying that one out.
Re: "a tip for my beauty"
i read this thread a few days ago and i must say -
i did this about 3 or 4 times the past few days i worked.
now i know that's really not much, BUT it's worked every time!!
especially on the types that are standing/sitting around GAWKING at me the entire time i'm dancing and don't even bother to come to the stage and tip! of course i'll approach these guys because they obviously like what they see and might even buy a dance - but i've made sure to almost always say within a few lines of the greeting something like "oh i came to say hi because i saw you watching me up there on stage" and they'll probably say something like "oh yeah you have amazing tits" blah blah WHATEVER, and of course that leads into the tip line ("since you couldn't make it up there") or something. idk. every way i've done it is a little different and can't tell you an exact line, but basically it's worked.
even if he's not into buying a dance, shit, even doing this so much as twice a night you'll get maybe an extra 5 bucks and fuck dude that's an extra five bucks.
just imagine doing it all the time!! all dollars add up, it doesn't seem like much but it's like saving change in a jar almost- a little bit at a time, and after a while, you've got some fat cash!
so anyway, this is definately recommended, and it's super freakin easy to ask for, at any time a guy compliments you (and we know how often guys try to use flattery to their advantage!)
