    Default Short Hair & Dancing...Can it Work?

    I'm a newbie dancer currently gearing up for auditions etc, and I think I'm set on all counts as far as appearance (body, face, clothing, shoes, etc), but I have concerns that I may run into trouble because of my hair. I have red hair, in a pixie cut currently. Will attach a picture to this thread. I think that the cut works in my favor and gives my appearance something extra compared to when I have had longer hair, but I know that strip club standards tend to follow the traditionally feminine mold. I'd appreciate any thoughts on the subject!

    I've seen it work for a few dancers, and you have a cute look. If you try and it isn't working out for you, you can always buy a wig.

    Do you think there's any chance of it hurting my prospects in auditions as far as getting hired?

    When hiring, managers care more about your body than your face and/or hair. If you're really concerned, you can get extentions or a wig.

    If it does, just get a wig and audition again. No biggie!

    You're attractive and I love your hair. My very honest opinion is that it could hinder your chances of getting hired, depending on the manager. If they decide they don't like a certain image, they won't hire you. If for some reason you feel it isn't working, you can grow it out or get a wig. Overall, I think you (or almost any girl) would do much better with long hair.

    You're incredibly pretty and that's a gorgeous cut. I actually hate short hair (on myself) and wish I could look this good with a short 'do. Honestly jealous right now. Like everyone else has said though a wig should fix things if it turns out to be an issue with getting hired.

    You have a very pretty face so you can pull off short hair, but in general, I think hiring managers and customers prefer to see long hair. Give things a go with your current hair and see what happens. If things aren't working out the way you hoped, invest in a high quality wig and try again. Honestly, I think it would be unusual for a girl to make more with short hair than she would with long hair, so I'd get a wig anyway and track my earnings with/without the wig to see how much of a difference there is.

    Do you think a decent quality lace-front synthetic will work? I would obviously have to do some modding to the hairline etc to make sure it didn't keep a harsh line or costume wig-ish look. I'm just not sure I want to go all-in on investing in a really high quality human hair wig etc when I'm not sure about overall effect etc.

    I have short hair and use wigs, I get way more compliments when I have a long wig on, but I'll tell you two things. If you're going to get a cheap one to start out, get it shorter (like shoulder length) because cheap wigs rat and tangle. The other thing is that when you have short hair there's nothing for the combs or bobby pins to anchor into, and if you do vigorous pole tricks/upsidedown tricks, it WILL come off, but just don't do that and you'll be fine. Soon as you have the money tho, invest in a human hair wig from a shop you visit in person.

    I think it's in a club's best interest to have all different flavors available since customers like all different flavors. Not everyone goes for the American blonde type, although many of course do. Looks are important but are only one part of the equation; your personality and how you connect with customers is what will make them spend on you.

    Maybe...but the club manager is not there to satisfy everybody, he will always hire the girl he thinks will bring in the most $.

    I think you'll be fine but then again I got hired when I had long hair. Your hair fits your face really well and you'll probably stand out.

    You def can make it work. I had a short Bob for a couple years
    and did well. No I wasn’t everyone’s flavor and that’s ok.
    I saw a couple girls with rocking bodies and short hair
    they had regulars for sure!!

    Cute! The girls at my club who have short hair usually wear wigs but on occasion they’ll wear their natural hair. Some of their regulars seemed to be amazed that they could pull off short hair too, and some of them did make a little bit more on nights that they didn’t wear a wig
