Hello, I’m ZeldaDangerous, and I’ve been dancing for going on 10 years on December 5th. I’ve been through the mud in multiple states , and have learned tricks among other dancers during my first few years that I don’t mind sharing with you.
1. Always wear make up and have your nails/hair done at all times.
Even if you feel like you won’t make it in time before you get smacked with a heavy house fee, ALWAYS LOOK YOUR BEST.
This is a job, and like any other job, you can not look sloppy. You maybe beautiful without the make up and hair, but this is a business, and you should always take it seriously. Plus if you’re not feeling yourself, you’re not going to make anything anyways. Put that work in on yourself!!
Besides, customers can see their natural wife/girlfriend, they are not spending money for women they can pick up on their own using FB, BE BETTER!
2. DO NOT MENTION YOUR HOME LIFE.
This includes “my child’s father sucks, my best friend sucks, or tonight sucks”. They did not pay good money and take their time to get dressed up nice to spend money on a drama queen. Be a professional. Find out what HIS life is. Comfort him, not the other way around. Sometimes a lot of money comes from the dancers who listen more, than talk more.
3. DO NOT WEAR CLOTHES THAT DO NOT FIT YOU.
If it’s squeezing you or falling off of you, you’re going to be uncomfortable; and look that as well. Your clothing needs to fit your body to give it that spicy look. Don’t try to push yourself into something just to fight with it. Red lines and oopsie daisies are preventable, so try to not have this problem.
4. Do not fight with your coworkers on the floor.
If there’s an issue, solve it at the end of the night in the dressing room. Not only are you going to kill the vibe of your coworkers or customers, but yourself too. I know it’s hard, but let’s be ladies and get our bag. Whatever the issue, do not act out on it.
5. Mind your own bag.
Do not ask what others have made; it’s annoying and none that is your business.
FOCUS ON YOU.
These little tips alone help ALOT. Try them before dancing 💃
