    Default Tattoos and piercings??

    Just wondering, how many of you have tattoos and piercings? I have my navel, my ears and just recently had my labret pierced. I also have a tattoo on my lower right abdomen just below the pant line and a chinese symbol on each inside wrist. Does this tend to increase or decrease business when you have these things? (I was particularly wondering about the labret?? Would that increase or decrease business do you think?)

    Had my ears pierced for my 13th birthday. Since then I've tried to avoid needles whenever I can. Sometimes I think I'd like to have my navel done, though I doubt I'll ever work up the courage. This has been discussed before. I think the conventional wisdom was, if you want to work in more upscale clubs and/or attract older/weathier customers you are better off without them. I'd agree with that. Like ami, I get complimented on the abscence of tats and piercings, but there are other girls that will tell you that they get complimented on thier tattoos and stuff. Personally, I think if you want to earn the most money you can, the less the better.

    I have a pierced navel (mother's day gift) and one tattoo on the small of my back that's representative of my name (Silena - Greek moon goddess, Sunshine) and also my company logo.

    I have one small tattoo... the chinese symbol for "angel" behing my left shoulder and nobody really gets to see it... I get compliments on having no tattoos/piercings but I don't think it matters because the same guys also dance with the girls with several.

    7 tats (with reworks and new ones planed)...7 piercings...soon to be back up to 8...I'm replacing the traditional navel ring I had with a lower navel piercing...

    (I've probably retired more piercings than most women have...the above 7 are the survivors)

    depends on the clientele. Generally speaking, less is more with bigger spenders.

    I had my navel pierced for 7 years. It closed up because I waited too long to reinsert my ring after I removed it. I haven't bothered getting it repierced. I rather like being the lone ranger with no piercings (except for my single pierced ears)

    Tats - one armband on left arm.
    Piercings - Hood, tongue, navel, nose, ears
    Never any complaints on anyof them, usually compliments.

    Piercings: Ears, tongue, navel, hood (in that order)
    Tats: Zilch

    I wouldn't say that piercings or tats will decrease your earnings if they are tasteful and not too in your face. I've had compliments on my piercings by spenders. I remember early in my first year dancing, an older man (must have been late 50s) went CRAZY over my navel ring! I couldn't believe it. But I have been criticised for having my tongue pierced once or twice before.

    As for tats, the discreet ones are pretty, but like piercings I think they can cripple ya if overdone e.g. when my boyf went to an SC, he danced with a girl (one of my friends actually). It was only after she removed her outfit he saw all her tats (she has her back completely covered) and he said that if he'd known, he would probably have been intimidated or wouldn't have danced with her. And that's just an example...

    Piercings: Ears, navel,tongue,nipples(not now), nose.
    Tattoos: arm(small), lower back on right side(med.), between shoulder blades(med.) Never had any complants. It sounds like a lot. But, they are mostly discreet piercings and I can cover tatts. easily if needed.

    Funny, my one piercing I'm concered about is on my face my labret. It's the lower lip center piercing. I have just a regular stud in it right now since I only got it pierced a week and a half ago, but I plan to do a crytal/diamond stud or flower thing (Think christina aguilera) Would this help, or how do u think guys will react to the bolt?

    A bolt? I asked my boyfriend and he said a little weird for his taste. Personally, I think it might be fun.

    I have pierced ears three holes on the left, two on the right, a navel piercing, just a barbel right now, and I had to remove my labia piercing. :-(

    No tats but, I love them. I play around all the time with temporary tattoos! I'm just too chicken to get the real thing.

    I personally think tats and piercings are sexy so does my beau....
    However, I get tons of compliments for my lacking of either (I also have a huge fear of needles).
    I work an upscale gentlemen's club, so it may different for you. I have found that the older gents can ignore a tattoo if it is pretty small. (I have seen them turn
    down the girls who have huge tattoo on there backs.)
    I guess it just depends on the crowd...

    When I said a bolt earlier I was being sarcastic. It's the normal stainless steel rod and ball, boring and kinda big, but u have to keep it in til it heals. Also I should mention that the two tats I have on my wrists are a light color gray (My friend and I went for the ghost effect) And u can't really see em in dim light, but the little fairy I have on my groinish area, her head and one foot sticks out form my thongs. Its not too bad though

    Piercings: Ears, tongue, navel, nipple, and hood
    Tats: One small butterfly on the inside of my right ankle.
    All of my jewelry is petite and made of real gold, so they act as cute accents, rather than distractors (or so I've been told).
    Anywho, I think I'm done with peircings, but I'm currently looking for a cute tattoo for my lower back.
