    Default Curly/Straight hair-how customers perceive you

    Im curious how many of you have noticed a difference in how customers perceive you based on curling or straightening your hair. I know most guys conciously dont give much of a shit as long as everything is working together, but im also curious if it affects your persona.
    I have naturally long mildly wavy hair. Ill typically just add some shine to it & this makes me feel most "myself" & comfortable. I like spending time to get ready & at nicer clubs curl my hair. Straight down it looks pretty but not glamed up enough for the environment. When I put it up I I think I look Guido & am self conscious. I just got a straightner & tried it out at home & will try it at work to see if it makes any difference. My snap impressions are:
    -curly hair makes you look younger, "cuter" perhaps friendlier & more approachable. I love it when girls rock the 1920s burlesque look. Downside: it can look frumpy, get frizzy, look poodle-ish, or immature.
    Straight hair- I think I definetly look more "serious" not sure if that will mess with a party vibe, alota girls have impossibly straight hair so might blend in more, looking more mature perhaps makes it easier to lay down the law & send em back for dances.
    Experiences?

    according to my google search, most men prefer straight hair on women because it catches the light and looks more well-kept (psshh), i was disappointed because i have helena bonham-carter hair. just wild, curly, and thick thick thick. so i tried curly hair at work, and by the time i was done with the shift the sweat from stage, humidity from the air, and other factor made half of it frizz out, and half of it sink im going to try new hair products, but i truly believe my hair just doesn't want to look good..i kept having to go back and fix it. so i tried straight, silky hair with long side bangs the next week and made twice as much. plus it took less time, and kept the shine and silkiness, and made it look longer. i could run my fingers though it too. im going to keep trying new products, but until i get my curls to cooperate, im going to go with simple straight hair

    I love to wear my hair curly its just easier and less damaging for my hair type BUT when I wear my ahir straight i make more, plus I get hired easily. I remember i wore my hair curly for an audition they didnt hire me. At first i thought it was because I was black or whatever so being the resilient person that i am, I went back again but this time with straight hair and boom they hired me with no issue. I hate wearing my hair straight and people guess that Im even older with it, Im almost 30 so that freaks me out but it sells. Whatever works though I stick with it Also I agree with simone about trying to keep frizz down with curly hair during a shift is a bitch lol.

    Patty Stanger( millionaire matcmaker) said the millionaires request blondes, brunettes with straight hair. That's why she says no to red heads( which I find ridiculous since some redheads are hot as fuck) but I've worn mine boith ( since it's naturally curly) though it's been 15 years wearing it straight and I make the same either way. I also traveled with a girl that had big beautiful hair she wore messy and wavy( it was gorgeous) and she definitely was a money maker/ man magent.( her attitude a whole another thing!)

    I think it should depend on your hair, & how it looks on YOU. Straight can be not good if it's not flattering.

    My hair is naturally straight, and I don't like straightening my hair because that sleek look isn't flattering on me, I don't think. I usually curl my hair with a straightener, put some de-frizzing gel in it, spray lightly with hairspray and run my fingers through it so it's sexy/messy bedroom hair that falls just below my boobs. I think that's the look that makes me the most money, but sometimes it gets a little *too* messy throughout the night. Lol.

    I always keep my hair straight in the club. My hair is a freak untamed and even if I curl it, it gets pissy, especially with the sweating. So I keep it very long, very straight. I have always loved my hair this way. Customers love it. Since I always do it that way though, changing it up for once would probably do some good. I wish I could pull off some curls, ahh maybe someday. Always go with what makes you feel best.

    My hair looks best when I don't fuck with it besides a little spray to keep volume up. It's loose waves, often called sex hair by customers. Overdone curls look awful on me, and my hair simply will not stay straight. If I didn't have natural waves, I'd probably do what summerbre does. Bedroom hair, ftw.

    A night never goes by that I am not complimented on my hair. Every night custys tell me that they love my hair and my hair is natural wavy/curly red and long, about 2 inches past my bra strap. I love my curly hair I just have to be careful cause I sweat alot ( and I mean alot) at work especially on stage. I don't even do much on stage & after my set my hair is soaking wet underneath so I stopped drying it with diffuser & I just put mousse and moroccan oil in it and let it dry!

    I asked a customer what he thought of me with curly or straight hair. "Huh?" He was looking below my neck the entire time.

    I realized by not standing out too much, more like a stereotype blonde with long hair straight with a few curls tossed in; think VS Model Hair... I suddenly had a wider group of guys that wanted me. Just an idea.

    Idk about how they perceive me but as a bi-racial girl, I always make more money with my hair straight and not only do I make more but I have to do less for it. I would always have my hair straightened at work but it's the most irritating thing in the world to have to flat iron it all over again each time that I get off stage or do a few dances.

    My Step sister, I live with, is constantly breaking or trying to abuse my hair straightener. For me, and im not pretty, but have a cute smile, straight works. Been told by men straight looks more slutty, but if it gets the attention, guess thats good. I have one in my work bag and end up Flattening it at least once durring a shift. I may try the FFH one night though LOL

    I ALWAYS make more with straight hair! I will pay to get my hair curled and get it perfect, but I still make more with straight hair! I'm not sure why this is. I am more comfortable with it straight though, because it's easier to flip around and I don't have to worry about messing it up.

    How curly are we talking? I never really noticed a difference, but I kind of match my hair to my outfits and persona for that night. The only difference I noticed was when I have blonde or black hair I made more.

    I'm mixed so my hair is naturally curly and downright unruly, and I always wear it straight for work. My hair is hard to manage so if I wore it curly I'd straight it first and use a curling iron to put loose curls in it. I literally always have my hair straight and while it works for me, I want to try it out styled in loose curls.

    My hairs naturally wavy and I usually curl the pieces on the end as well as a few other strands which I've found has been working well for me. I used to straighten it, but I felt it made me look way too young and the curls kind of give me my own look
