    Default Houston, TX - Any ladies care to help a newbie out?

    Not quite as a dancer.........................................yet .


    I'd like to begin waitress first to better understand the business, and rapidly move on to the more daring side. Daring meaning possibility of performing lap dances. To be honest the overtly erotic body to body contact (and strangers mostly! Quel horror!) brings back fears of germs, and well.........dirty old men with germs. And those are the ones I might have to dance for! Oh my....

    Yeah yeah that was snarkish, wankery of me. I've already got tickets to hell, but before that happens I'd love to make acquaintances/friends with those who work legitimately as dancers, club owners/promoters, whomever to show this youngin' (21 btw) the ways of the garter. Appreciate you reading this.

    Later homeskillets.

    Pushersquare, don't even bothering waitressing. There's not much to understand in this business. Waitressing sucks anyway. Read Pookashell's rant-

    http://www.stripperweb.com/forum/sho...waitress+shots

    And I am not sure where you accent is from, but men will love it. I have met women from London and Australia and they do wonderful in Texas with the accent. anyway, let me know what questions you have.

    Very common approach.

    You're going to have to get over that...

    Don't put to much trust in anyone. AFAIK, there is no such thing as an SC promoter in Houston, so anyone pushing that line is full of shit. Owners, managers, bar staff, bouncers, etc etc are not strippers so don't look to them for advice either.

    i personally would recommend not bothering to waitress in houston. i wouldn't really recommend dancing here, either, but at least you have a good bet of going home with 100-200 each shift on the low end vs nothing (which is all too common waitressing in strip clubs).

    most of the topless club waitresses make money connecting extras (sex in the club) guys with dancers who provide that kind of thing. nude clubs are not necessarily awful moneywise, but there's a reason they only have 1 waitress and/or bartender a shift (no alcohol is sold in the club and guys bring their own booze; the club sells ice and mixers).

    houston is generally medium to high two-way contact (both customer and dancer can touch each other).

    if you can do so without impacting some other job, travelling to another nearby city to work weekends is much better. houston's combination of cheap brothels disguised as massage parlors, too many clubs for the customer pool, and an excess of girls who want to 'get their feet wet dancing'= a lot of pressure to provide high contact and/or extras. a girl can make money in houston with low/no contact, but it is very very difficult and stressful. and contact levels are increasing overall, not reducing.

    I agree with Miabella- Houston is a tough place to cut your teeth. I started in Corpus Christi and I really love the club where I'm at. Good luck to you.

    Wow, how unfortunate. I've quite a few friends who are/were dancers and that might explain why I never hear much of what goes on at their work. It's a little disheartning to think any of them may be giving extras as a last resort.

    le sigh.

    Are there ANY clean places in Houston? Travel isn't too feasible right now since I attend college here. Man what a shame that there isn't a classic cabaret venue of some sort strictly catering to clients who appreciate performance and dance ability. Even if that is a niche market I'm sure plenty a profit could be had. Hopeful wishing?

    you could try the men's club. contact has increased there from what it used to be, but you can still get paid to talk to guys, if you are a dancer. no idea how it is for waitresses there. even relatively low contact dancers still tend to provide one way contact and often some grinding in houston.

    as for the nude clubs, the money at them should be pretty stellar in sept/oct and dec/jan. and nov in the nudie clubs is nowhere near as slow as at the topless places, if you are wanting to dance. since money will be flowing again those months, those clubs should be back to their lower-contact options in a couple more weeks. and when the customers turn up in the nude clubs, you can set your own contact levels, since most or all of the dances are done in private rooms (much safer than it sounds, and at least two nude clubs have cameras and/or panic buttons in the private areas, to my knowledge).

    also working nude, if you simply don't want to privately dance for anyone, you can give a good stage performance and actually make 100+ in stage tips on weekends each shift. you won't get rich, but you can hang out doing homework or something all night and just turn up for your stage sets if you are that good a stage performer.

    A user by the name LUNCHBOX left this message on a thread I started maybe it'll help you out too!

    "Have you spoken to anyone at the new place? www.dbcoopersmansion.com

    I read it was pasties, full bottoms, and air dances until they get their SOB license next month. Probably worth at least checking it out."

    most of the girls i talked to a couple weeks back didn't want to try it until contact dances were feasible (mid-sept, when the club gets its licence, basically). i have heard of a few girls working there, but i don't know if they are making money with the airdances.

    Centerfolds In Houston-
    After Procrastinating Forever, I Finally Danced. Against Everyones Advice, I Took A Chance And Went To Centerfolds Where My Best Friend Works.even Though My Expectations Werent Great, I Thought I Would Be More Comfortable At First With A Good Friend Around. I Thought For Sure Men Would Expect Extras And I Would Leave Broke And Irritated But Was Determined To Try.

    Anyway, To My Surprise, I Never Had To Approach Anyone And Was Busy All Night. The Guys Tried To Touch A Little To Much. But I Didnt Get One Request For Anything Extra And Made $600+. Maybe Its The New Manager.

    Centerfolds is a popular club. Lots of traveling businessmen and guys around the Richmond area out having fun. There are definately extras there, but hey, if you live in Htown and need to dance there, its not the worst place you can be.

    I just worked there this weekend and I have to agree it was pretty good (taking into consideration everything that has been said and widely acknowledged about Houston).

    I have a club review for it the first time I worked there and it pretty much holds true. That and the comment that another person made after me is pretty much the truth.

    The t-shirts are really stupid. I wouldn't sell them, just had princess temper tantrums and wouldn't pay for them until Mike gave up on me...that was just my last 2 days in Htown that they started that. When will they learn........

    Yeah that sucks. They do something like that at my home club but only on special promotion nights Ie) if they televise a fight. Usually I just give the manager $10 so I don't have to do the 2 for 1 deal they offer w/ the t-shirt. Then I give the shirt asa gift to a customer who is spending lots of $ on me.

    As far as the Colorado goes: you have to hustle there. Being new seemed to help me. Some out-of-towners. Not enough customers per girl IMO, but like a girl commented in the Club Review section, you can outsell dances if you are hotter than the other girls. I wasn't initmidated by anyone, not trying to sound cocky. I averaged $60- 200 per customer on Sat. night. They stay open till 4 or 5 am on fri-sat nights.

    Well In Response To Your Comment On Looks; All In All Lately I Rarely See A Dancer Here In Houston That I Think Is Really Beautiful Or Even Close,not To Sound Cocky Either. When I First Danced About 5 Years Ago I Think More Were Attractive, Am I Delusional Or Is There Some Truth To My Observation. Do You Live Here Also?

    No, I don't think most of the girls are as hot as they used to be. That's because they let in all the whores off the street and into the clubs in Houston. However, the few girls left in Houston that are top notch, would be top notch anywhere. I have seen some of the most beautiful women still here. They are few are far between.

    And if you are going to make good money here consistently without having to get super-nasty (cause everyone in Houston has to get somewhat nasty regardless of who you are), you have to be top-notch.

    One more thing, it is not necessarily the beauty, but also the class. We met some beautiful women when my boyfriend and I went club scouting. But as soon as they opened their mouth, they were trashy.

    There are very few classy and beautiful ladies here.

    AFAIK, they stopped doing the 'feature' the last couple of times I was there at midnight. It was 2 dances for $30 and a piece of swag.

    This place does not allow camera phones, and the cover is $2 more than at any other club around. The Valet parking is however complimentary, and it's been the same Asian kid since the first time I went. It's not a bad club, but it's nothing special either. Since I can't just bring my phone in and there is never any room around the stage to sit, I just don't bother going.

    If you like to give $40-80 NQNS BBBJ's, then any time is good. If you don't, stay away.
