    a reply to gypsy: i'm not a barbie. i never was. cant pull it off. even with blonde hair i've been told there's just something dark about me.

    ok, new worry: trying to cover up tats w dermablend right now. yes, two of em are kinda freaky, but i get many compliments on them. they are done with great detail. they suit me. enough people have butterflies and flowers on them. and darn, well, the ink's dark and showing through. oh dear. now i'm gonna freak...called club #3 and said i could cover them up. they still show through! aaahhh!!! now what if i dont get hired????

    Don't freak out, now--you've had a distressing experience, but don't let it get in your head and stop you from getting what you want, or let it make you start judging yourself too harshly.

    From the sounds of it, the customers like you, and that's a good thing, and means you'll find somewhere that suits you eventually. Who knows what the hell that owner's problem was--a lot of those guys are out there...

    I'd say go for the nice club that you really want, where you can make some money. If the ink shows through a bit, it might still look alright, or you could try a double coat of dermablend, maybe.

    Keep trying, and keep positive!

    IN ALL HONESTY,, i would just let it drop,,i wouldnt take legal action agisnt the club,the owner or anybody,, its going to end up costing you lots of money in legal fee's,, and if u do sue them and u do winn,, u have created a bunch of enemies locally there in the bizz,, most of the club owners i know are very shady not the type of pople you'd want as enemies u know what i mean, my suggestion would be ither go back to your club and try to talk ither to the owner or the ( GM) as see why they fired you and what you have to do to get hired agin, and if nothing works out i would ither get hired at another club or its time to change citys get a fresh start some were else , but always word of advice from my pasted experiences, whn leaving or getting fired from a club,, leave on good terms, espeically with the owners, they can make your life a lving hell, trust me i know

    Use either Liquid Latex (doesn't really show that much under the dark lights) or use Fabric Paint. It's thicker than dermablend and like the latex, won't show up much under the lights but will cover just about anything.

    what club is this? (if you don't mind my asking)

    Where are you located? Maybe try more alternative friendly cities like Portland? I worked there at a club called Union Jacks and another called Devils Point. I made great money, and the clubs were specifically showcasing tattooed and pierced, alternative girls. The music always rocked and every night was really fun. I probably wouldnt have ever moved away from there if it wasnt for my boyfriend now. Maybe trying a new scene will do you some good. It doesnt sound like you did anything wrong, and I definitely wouldnt take it that way. Try a couple of the other clubs around, but also consider making a move somewhere else. Ive always taken chances to move new places, and having a job in this kind of industry allows travel anywhere. Sometimes, the grass really is greener. Lol

    Oh, and you shouldnt have to cover up your tattoos for a job as a stripper, thats the craziest thing I have ever heard. I have 22, and most of them are VERY large. Ive never once had a problem finding a job, or been asked to cover them up. Like I said before, consider moving somewhere else. Your obviously living in a very conservative area. Tattoos arent that uncommon of a thing these days, they shouldnt ask you to change who you ARE just for a job. Plus, all that make-up on your skin will cause you to sweat faster, then you have issues with slippery stages...a danger for you and other girls after you. That make-up will rub off on custys during dances, also not a good thing. Plus, think of how much prep that would be, every single shift. Hours of covering tattoos. Would that really be worth it?
