    Default stripping and tattoos

    last night in myrtle beach, i realized that my ink is a problem.

    none of the "classier" and "upscale" clubs would hire me or let me audition simply because of my tattoos.
    the asshole at crazy horse sent me to tiffanys--BARF.

    am i doomed to work in shitty clubs because of my appearance?

    I have never had a problem working anywhere due to my tattoos.....I worked at one of the most upscale chains in the country and plenty of girls had work done.

    Also, the club where I'm at now is the best environment I've ever worked in and the best money I've ever made. As an alternative dancer, I've always been soooo much happier in a more relaxed environment. Just because it's not upscale doesn't necessarily mean it'll be shitty. I say go for topless clubs with low to moderate contact and more casual dress. I've liked them soooo much more, for countless reasons other than the acceptance of my personal style.

    If you're really focused on working in an upscale gown club, I have successfully covered up my half sleeve....there are youtube videos that teach you to use layers of red lipstick and then a concealer. Even if you can't cover all of them, disguising chest and arm pieces might get your foot in the door.

    Good luck!

    I've not gotten hired at nicer clubs as well, and I only had wrist and ankle tats. Depends on the area you're in I suppose.

    Where/how big are your tattoos? There are articles of clothing/jewelry you can wear (and not have to take off) to cover them if you dislike using make-up to cover them up (I hated using make-up stuff to conceal my tats).

    THAT. I have found more casual clubs a MUCH better place to work and always made more money there.

    Being heavily tatted does limit you to a certain degree, but it doesn't mean you're doomed to work in shitholes forever. I am pretty heavily tatted but I stick to mid tier places. I have found that fake tits and a blonde wig usually direct people's attention elsewhere!

    I guess its not your tattoos they hired me with 2 tattoos.This place is extremly picky on the other hand.Even though u could get a job makin money is not really easy there. There are a lot of barbie lookin girls, fake titties, Russians, also talented dancers with crazy hustle. Me and couple other girls tried this place couple more times none of us made sirious money. Upscale clubs are not like dives or mid tie titty bars. U worked at pretty much every club at Fayetteville. U told me u did not make money. Trust me upscale club wont be easier. Those people might have money but it doesnt mean they will throw their money on u while u walk by. Also customers are more picky.U having hard time at small places which other girls still make money including me. If u cant make it at small places u should not go somwehere bigger. Learn how to be confortable, how to dance and hustle first. Especially pls pls dont go NYC. I m so worryin about u , u might end up makin no money, maybe not gettin a job even though u get a job u can have hard time due to your experince. I guess u should work on your skills first. I wish u lots of luck.

    All the ladies that are saying they got hired with tats with no problem might have to consider the fact that they are not heavily tat'd. Those of us that are can have problems getting hired depending on the club, regardless of how hot one might be.

    To the OP: Your look might be a problem. You appear (if that's a pic of you in your sig) to be more of an alternative girl. Try making hair all one colour for starters. Mainstream a bit. It may help.

    This. Exactly.

    When I had dark hair and tattoos I appeared more "goth".
    and constantly got labeled goth and 'token rocker girl'..

    When I went blonde, I was more "rock of Love"...more "acceptable" I guess. lol
    In fact, some people didn't even notice my tattoos at first (having bleach blonde hair) and I'm heavily tatted.

    I would try playing with makeup and hair styles.

    See, I have pitch black hair and pretty large tattoos....definitely not anything dainty. And I love dancing to Muse and System of a Down. So like the OP, I think I'm pretty damn alternative....it's just that I lowered my club standards a bit and went for places less upscale. (Although, again, my first club was a gown club. But that's neither here nor there.) Totally depends on the area you're in, the club and your individual look.

    I usually have huge, teased up hair, heavy makeup and the most unique outfits I can find. Pretty soon, I'm investing in a collection of microdermal piercings. I'm much happier in a place where I'm free to express myself in any way I want to.

    Again, these are just my experiences. Point I'm trying to make is there are plenty of nice clubs that will embrace your look.

    thanks everyone! helps a lot honestly i worded that wrong. i dont mean upscale but clubs that arent trash holes you know? like about middle class. THEY wouldn't hire me bc of tattoos but i finally found a few that will hire me out there. and missplayful, i wasn't making money at secrets or sharkys. i'm doing good back at victorias, it's just slow season.

    thanks yes i have a very alternative look, full of tattoos with platinum blonde hair over black peekaboo. yeah i meant a middle class club. my town is full of shitholes but i want to expand outside of here as i don't plan on staying here forever :p especially with the low income at our clubs.

    hope ur doing well at secrets! i did good at first but way too many girls. plus i didn't rlly like the club. not comfortable there.

    i am not willing to cover up my tats honestly. i make most money places i work because customers love my alternative look / tattoos. most girls i've worked with do not like my look and customers seem to find it special. it just seemed dollhouse and crazy horse were a bit bias although their girls were not cute when i was there. other people have told me they are rude at crazy horse anyway. a friend walked out bc it was that slow and rude. guess that club wasn't for me! i hear masters and a few others would be fine with me. i worked at fantails which was very nice and good for money even though it has a reputation as an extras club. but thank you if i ever must cover them i will look into that

    This is honestly a little naive. I can almost guarantee that your income would increase if you covered up some - if not all - of your tattoos. It makes you more widely appealing, thus giving you a bigger customer base to work with. Sure, there are customers that dig the alternative look and tattoos, but there are much more who prefer the natural look.

    It all comes down to how important making lots of cash is to you. If your income right now is acceptable and you're content not making much more, don't change anything. But know that you would make more (or at the very least make money more easily) if you covered some/all of your tats and make your hair one colour.

    After a few month, you'll learn that the club isn't necessarily the best place to express yourself. When I first started, I was super keen on only wearing what *I* found sexy - all black lingerie, no make up, basically how I look outside of the club. Sure, I made money, but it became so much easier to hustle and get MORE money once I started rocking some make up and colourful outfits. When you walk into the club, you shouldn't be yourself. You take on a persona, and that means doing things you don't do in your everyday life, like wearing certain make up, hair, or clothing styles, because that's what goes over better with customers. You can express your true self outside the club, when your income doesn't hinge on how you look.

    hope ur doing well at secrets! i did good at first but way too many girls. plus i didn't rlly like the club. not comfortable there.
    Just take it time for NYC . Trust me in a year u will be great. U are good looking and your body is good for stripping.U just need to relax and never feel bad about hustling someone. Last year at Crazy horse they did not wanna hire anyone. They were so picky also extras was going on... Maybe this year they could not find anyone who could work there who knows.Or mayeb they are desperate about house fees. That club is worse than Secrets about hustling...
