First night as a stripper

Hey it’s Savannah,

Are you ready to hear about my first night? Because I’m ready to tell you all about it. Whether you are a baby stripper, a civilian or an experienced stripper I’m sure this will come as a surprise that even though I have worked in the strip club as a bartender I had absolutely no idea what was involved in becoming a stripper, especially a stripper who was making good money. I had no one to teach me the ropes, so these posts are about how I slowly figured it out on my own.

I woke up and had butterflies like no ones business. I think most of my day was spent in bathrooms as I tried to wrestle with my mind if this industry was really for me. Between bathroom breaks I managed to spend over $500 in lingerie, $200 in makeup and $100 in new hair products, I was new and thought I needed it all. I had my favourite pair of heels that I thought would be fine, boy was I very wrong. They weren’t stripper shoes, they gave me nothing but blisters and my feet were killing me by the end of the night. When I got home I immediately had a shower and shaved absolutely everything - including my arm hairs. (My biological dads side of the family is Italian so hairy arms was not a good look close up according to my girlfriend.) But best decision I’ve ever made, 3 years later I still shave them and I’ll make an article on that another day.

Curled my hair with my favourite hair product which is motion lotion by Kevin Murphy. Got a bag packed and took a deep breath as I got into my car and headed to work, my first night as a stripper. Our boss used to give us free champagne from 7pm-11pm which was a good thing but also a bad thing. I proceeded to get tipsy and then drunk, so when trying to talk to customers it was not a good look having a drunk girl in lingerie slurring and stumbling all over you is not as sexy as I had pictured. (If you’re new I recommend knowing your limits and never go past it.)

The next morning I proceeded to count my money so I could start keeping track of my earnings and expenses. I wish I was joking when I say I didn’t even make $100 in 8 hours, I was devastated. I had children I needed to support which meant I wanted minimum three hundred dollars a night, I cried I felt defeated as I replayed the nights antics back in my head. I didn’t let anyone touch me as I was so nervous even as drunk as I was, the thoughts of me asking myself if I really was ready we’re going through my head all night. Until I walked into my daughters room and looked at them peacefully sleeping and I realised to myself that it wasn’t about me anymore it was about them, and I swore to myself that I would do whatever it took. I was determined to make the next night much better, and we will cover that in my next post.

In all my posts I’ll be sharing what tricks I learnt along the way and my mistakes. I feel like this industry has a certain stigma and I know experienced girls don’t often like to share their tricks. So if you’re a baby stripper or considering this industry then stay tuned to this page; or if you’re hear for the laughs or just some insight then keep reading.
