    Default What Type Of Club? And tattoos?

    Ok, so I have two tattoos, one larger one on my side and one on my other hip that is little, and getting a quote on my forearm/wrist this weekend. And I plan on getting snake bite piercings once I get out of the job I'm at now. My question is, how big of a role will this play in an sc as far as getting hired, or which clubs I will do best at? I'm black, too btw and pretty petite. I'm 5'5 and been told look like I weight about 115 and like I'm muscular but not in a scary way (but I actually weigh about 140) To top that all off, I look like I'm from the islands apparently. Even though I'm not.

    As far as preferences I tend to dance to slower music, r&b or rock, just no country, and I'd rather be more on stage than giving lap dances.
    So where does this put me?

    Last of all, my last dancer name was Eryn but I don't think it fit me too well. I was debating Trinity or Trini (cause it's pretty), is that another over-used name?

    I haven't met many Trinitys in my stripper life, and I've been doing this for appx six years. most gown clubs and higher end clubs limit tattoos. So probably a mid level club would fit u better.

    High end clubs tend to frown on facial piercings, but to each their own. If you want your snakebites, but em in. It's a lesson you have to learn on your own and in the end no matter how much advice we give, people are going to do their own thing. I used to have angel bites, snake bites, and a labret. My money tripled when I took them out. My personal experience.

    The sad truth is that you will have a harder time getting hired because you're black. Piercings and tattoos won't help that as more upscale clubs tend to be picky about that sort of thing, but that doesn't mean you can't get hired and make money. Of course, the more "mainstream" of a look you have, the more appealing you are the the greatest amount of customers. Still, you can make the alternative look work for you, especially if you keep the rest of your appearance more "mainstream" (think soft makeup, girly outfits, glam hair, etc.). Or, you can totally embrace the alternative look and go all out. There is a niche for that, but it's just a niche and you can't always bank on there being customers who will appreciate that every shift.

    If you post what city you're in, you might get some club recommendations. Lap dancing seems to be where the big money is in most areas, but there are also some cities where it's illegal and clubs are stage only, so it's possible.

    I've read a lot on here and figured that being black would be a point against me in some clubs, but I have no problem working in an urban club. My favorite dancers are magic city in atlanta, so my plan is to work up to something like that, a club that is urban but innovative and always doing something amazing (like snackpack). I'm not bootylicious or anything, but I know how to work with what I have and I'm really good (IMO) when it comes to pole dance so I think I can focus on that in that type of club environment. And I can always suck it up and do lap dances, that's what I did at my last dancing job anyway.

    As far as piercings and tattoos, I think I will just not get them. The two I have now aren't really huge at all, and I think I could cover them with makeup pretty easily.

    I'm moving to wherever I decide to dance at (and get hired at) so I was really debating texas (dallas, or houston) or florida (where I most recently lived), but I'm in cali right now, san fran area. I was thinking of moving because I've seen a lottt of posts saying cali is not the place to be at right now. And I've been to texas and loved it there.

    If you're gonna do the alt look hit up Portland. Or the Clubhouse in Dallas. Everywhere else just keep it cookie cutter. Shanna is right. You're gonna have a tough time in some places as it is. Don't add to your troubles (for now).

    I danced with one girl named Trinity. I personally always liked the name. As for tats and piercings... I've found myself slumming it a few times (however I do love dives) bc of the body mod stuff I've done. Each club is different and it depends on where you want to work.
