I'm not sure if this should be in Body Business, or this forum, so I'll put it here and if y'all need to move it please do.
I've seen a LOT of new dancers (and a few that should know better by know) in the clubs lately that all seem to be making the same mistakes. I thought I'd throw this out there, hopefully it will help someone.
Here's a fabulous link to etiquette and basic questions http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJeEWCuo9AA

Please, do not:
DOUSE yourself in perfume. It doesn't matter how much you love love LOVE your Angel, or Flowerbomb, or Victoria's secret whatever-scent-of-the-week, when you use shower gel, moisturizer and perfume all at once chances are it's too heavy.
There are many reasons to not do this. You may have a guy with allergies. Or one who is sensitive to scent. They should not have to have a change of clothes in their car to change into before they go home.
I had a guy tell me last night that he wanted a dance from a girl, but her perfume was so heavy it was making him nauseous. I can't tell you how many guys thank me for wearing a light scent, cause they DO NOT WANT TO SMELL LIKE US WHEN THEY LEAVE. They can't go home to their wives smelling like Eau De Cotton Candy Amarige Glitter Stripper Sweat Juice.
which brings me to my second point.
NO GLITTER.
It's like the herpes of makeup. Once it's on, it's not coming off. Seriously. Again, guys will turn someone down who is covered in glitter cause they know it's coming off on them. Also, if you've ever gotten it in your eye, under your contact..... OW. just OW. This goes for your clothing, too. Make sure your costumes aren't shedding it.
DON'T cover yourself in oil and do floor work. It makes the stage stupid slick and that's just mean. If you don't do pole work, or floor work, then go for it, but if you do... leave the oil alone.
This one is going to sound mean, and it's not meant to.... but shower before you come to work. Use baby wipes if you feel like you smell... "down there".
But man, when I do a double dance with a new girl, and I can smell girlie smells standing next to her, jeebus sweetie, that is a problem.
Above all, please remember that you are there to entertain the custy, and make him forget everything while you are there. We aren't there to get trashed underage, or get high all the time, or get to be as slutty as we want without anyone we know finding out.
We are here to be the best thing in his life in 3 minute intervals and get paid accordingly.
Please feel free to add anything I may have forgotten ( it is 4 am here.)
