    Default Toledo Strip Club

    I'm going into a strip club tomorrow to try out. I'll try to not ask questions that have already been answered. I bought my lingerie over the past week: black slip from Victoria's, basic black lace thong, pink lace bra, ruffled booty panties from Walmart. My shoes are pathetic: from Maurices (I know I'll look like a newb but I don't have any cash for good stripper shoes hence the audition) They're high heels, basic pink and glittery.



    I'm sooooo nervous. I've never done anything like this before. I'm extremely friendly and people-orientated so I think I can make it. I'm saving up for a nice horse and for showing over the summer during my internship. I'm going to Scarlett's in Toledo Ohio. It's an hour away which is the closest thing to me (Findlay, Ohio). Does anyone know anything about this club? I cannot go inside because it's 21+ and I'm 20, unless I'm auditioning. While home in the big city over winter break I tried to at least see the inside of a strip club but couldn't as I wasn't auditioning..... So I've been searching through strip club videos on the internet. Does anyone have any good websites of good strippers working? No pole moves please as I won't be attempting those, lol. Thanks for ANY information and yes I've read every sticky on this board.

    This is unrelated, and not any of my business really, but I think it's important to put it out there. The strip biz is really bad right now. I used to think you'd come up in the spot and make 400 dollars GUARANTEED! And so you could save thousands of dollars a month. It's not like that. So I want to warn you before you jump in. Because you might think that you'll be able to save a lot of money, but it might not be worth the time and gas to drive 2 hours every day to work. However, I'd talk to the manager, some of the other girls at the club, and check it out. But just don't get too excited about it, because I don't want you to be disappointed.

    I got the job! Woo hoo! I was terrified when I went in but when I stepped onto that stage I couldn't stop smiling!! The girls were rather nice. A lot nicer than I expected. The manager was really friendly, completely professional and seemed like a good guy. They said the next two weeks are extremely low due to taxes not being returned yet, people gone for the holidays, etc. So I'll stick with it for a month and hopefully get somewhere and develope some regulars.

    So I did my first night shift! I made a measly $93 after all tips and house fees. It was so slow! At one point there were 2 customers for the majority of the time I was there. I did five lap dances. Only two were from the same customer. I felt I held myself back because I began to feel dirty after giving out about three lap dances. I had absolutely no problem with the stage... I need a new outfit. The girls, well a few, were kind enough to give me some pointers and change my outfit from lingerie to a red dress and belt... I need to just get over my feelings of general skankiness to make more.

    There's a pretty steep learning curve for newbies in this business, so you'll likely make more if you stick it out and pick up some hustle skills. That being said, are there other clubs you can try out nearby that could be busier? 2 customers on a night shift is pretty bad, even if it was a Sunday-Tuesday.

    If you feel dirty giving lap dances or just skanky in general being a stripper, then there's no shame in not doing it. This job isn't for everyone, and no money is worth going home and feeling bad about yourself.

    I'm in Toledo as well. I'm across the street from Scarletts. You heard correctly, the area isn't great and January is probably not going to be very good. Just keep at it and things will improve. Also, if that club doesn't work out for you, for whatever reason, you can try where I am-- we're usually busier. Not necessarily more money guaranteed, but something to work with. Goodluck!

    I felt dirty after giving about three lapdances. I guess I just feel sex is more about love than that. But I did feel accomplished at the end of the day. Some of the regulars had only made $45. What club do you work at? I heard (from the manager at Scarlett's) that Platinum had been raided a few months ago and was notorious for extras. What are your words on that? Also do you know of a good stripper clothing store nearby? Noth the one right next to Platinum. I've already been in there. Thanks for any advice!!

    yep, i work at platinum. we were raided in July, i wasn't there. It was notorious for extras, but i've always made decent money there as a clean dancer. extras girls were fired after the raid anyway. its a party atmosphere, so there are a lot of random guys that don't want any extras, just someone to drink with, laugh with, get dances. Scarlett's and Platinum have a bit of a rivalry going on, managers at both talk the other down a lot because a lot of girls go back and forth.

    in terms of clothes, the place next to platinum doesn't have much. the shed on lewis is only a mile or so from alexis rd. they have really cute stuff. there is also a cirilla's on monroe st. they have a ton of stuff, but its more expensive. i would suggest the shed first, for basic stuff (mix and match tops and skirts, dancer thongs) and cheaper shoes.

    If you feel dirty, dancing isn't for you, sweety.

    Maybe I should have stated this a different way; did you not feel awkward giving dances at first?

    Yes, awkward, and maybe a little skeeved out if the guy is really nasty. I still get that way, I mean everyone has limits. However, you need to find your comfort zone. Contrary to what other girls may tell you, you DO NOT have to do what they do. If you don't want someone to touch your boobs, tell them not to. If you don't want someone to touch your ass, tell them not to. Tell them if they wanna touch you at all they have to give you a tip upfront. If you feel really uncomfortable though, don't do it. It's not worth the stress. 93 dollars isn't worth the mental trauma because you could make that waitressing. It's different because you're just starting out. You're not addicted to it, dependent on it, or deep into it. I am. My advice would be that if your first reaction is unpleasant, follow your notions. A word to the wise is sufficient.

    Thanks! The part I found dirty was feeling the erection through their pants... I've quit my job. I am very lucky in that my parents pay for college. My mother found out and threatened to cut me off so I've obviously quit.

    Platinum isn't a extra club anymore. They have cameras back there and a girl that sits at the entrance of the lapdance room and watches everything.
    I'm the stripper you can be in love with
