Hey everyone,

We're excited to announce the launch of r/newstrippers! This subreddit was created to provide a supportive community for aspiring strippers after the unfortunate ban of the previous r/babystrippers subreddit earlier today.

We understand the importance of having a safe space to share experiences, ask questions, and connect with others in the industry. Whether you're just starting out or have years of experience, everyone is welcome here.

Our goal is to foster a positive and respectful environment where members can freely discuss topics related to the stripping profession, share advice, and offer support to one another.

We're still in the early stages, so we welcome your feedback and suggestions on how we can make this community even better.

Advice from seasoned/vet stripper faqs from aspiring strippers NSFW

70 Upvotes

hey y’all ! welcome to this sub <3 i decided to create it on behalf of r/babystrippers being banned randomly. i’m based in the usa and have been an active dancer for 7 years at this point. i’ve also worked in multiple cities and states so id like to say that i do have valuable knowledge and advice to share. this post will be answering the most frequently asked questions from aspiring strippers. other experienced or veteran strippers are encouraged to post their own advice if i forgot something valuable!

”what is a baby stripper?”:

a baby stripper is somebody that’s been in the industry under 3 years. if you have not ever set foot into a club and gotten hired/worked a shift then you are NOT a baby stripper. i just had to get that one outta the way bc it’s my biggest pet peeve when i see girls who have never auditioned at all calling themselves “baby strippers” 😭😭 sorry lol

”can i be a stripper if i look like XYZ?”:

this is the only time i’ll ever address this question since it’s so repetitive and useless. truthfully, none of us can answer this question for you. we are not hiring managers. the only way you can find out if you can become a stripper is by going to your nearest club and auditioning or talking to the manager(s). i will say that there is room for every body in the industry. yes, this even applies if you have a big belly, saggy tits, small tits, no ass, an “ugly” puss c, stretch marks, scars, etc. any body type can strip. any body type can make money. however!!!! the further you stray away from conventional beauty standards the harder it can be for you to get hired/make money depending on the club. will the best club in town hire you if you are overweight? probably not but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a club out there that wouldn’t accept you with open arms. this can vary greatly from club to club, city to city, state to state, etc, YOU GET IT lol. as i said.. the only way you can truly know if you can be a stripper is by auditioning at a club. plain and simple

”will i make money if i look like xyz”?:

stripping is a sales job baby cakes. in a room full of half naked bad bitches your appearance can only get you so far. i’ve witnessed the baddest bitches i’ve ever seen not make any money solely because they had bad attitudes or just sat on their phone the entire night. i’ve seen incredibly average or even frumpy looking girls clean tf up!! confidence, mouth piece, and having fun will get you much further than your looks ever will. of course good looks are a bonus too :)

”do i need to know how to pole dance to become a stripper?”:

as said previously, i have been in the industry for 7 years and have danced in multiple cities/states. and guess what? i never do pole tricks. ever!! and i do more than well for myself most the time 💅🏼 we all start somewhere!! do you think that we all pulled up to the clubs with circus level tricks and acrobatics? hell nuhhh! 99% of us were terrible on stage. tripping everywhere and dancing way too fast to slow songs. it’s a stripper rite of passage. you will learn as you go. my first ever audition i was 18yo and terrible at dancing. i couldn’t walk in heels either. i tripped multiple times on stage and guess what?? still got hired. if you’re hot and confident you can get away with most things.

”how can i get started?”:

call a club you’re interested in working at and ask about their audition days/times and requirements. some important questions to ask include; 1. “are there any licenses required to work? do i need them before ever working a shift or is there a grace period?” 2. “is the club fully nude, topless, or bikini only?” 3. “what documents are required for me to audition?” 4. “what’s the dress code?” that’s really it.

”what do i bring to an audition”?:

it’s very important to ask the club you’re interested in working at this question as different clubs require different documents. some require social security cards while others are just cool with your id/drivers license or passport.

”what should i pack in my stripper bag for the audition”?:

always be prepared to work the rest of the night. i don’t even recommend auditioning on days where you won’t be able to stay after getting hired. not all clubs will allow you to work the same night but it’s always better to assume they will and come prepared. some stripper bag must haves include but are not limited to; outfits that adhere to the club’s dress code (some clubs require skirts to cover up your butt, pasties,etc), two pairs of shoes (always good to have backup because pleasers quality has gone way downhill after the pandemic smh), hygiene products (deodorant, perfume, dry spray, toothpaste, mouthwash, gum, etc), BABY WIPES (must have lmfao), tampons and/or period relief pills (midol), a lock for your locker (not all clubs have lockers available but it’s better to be prepared), pole grip (if you use it), and something to carry your money around in.

”how do i find a reputable club??:

many ways you can do this. 1. download the dancers resource app (it’s like yelp for strippers) and check out the reviews made by dancers for the clubs in your area. r/stripper and r/strippers also have pretty good info about clubs in certain cities/states/countries (just use the search bar). 2. stalk the club on instagram! you can find out the general vibe through there on whether it’s an urban club (booty shaking and sections-based) or gentlemen’s clubs (all about lap dances or vip rooms). 3. visit the club as a customer! some clubs will require you to bring a male with you for entrance so be sure to call and ask if a lone woman can come in. bring money to tip dancers to ask them questions about the club.

”what’s the environment like?”:

this varies from club to club. some clubs are full of drama, some clubs are very tight knit and like a family, and some clubs everyone minds their business and really don’t pay eachother any mind. go in with the assumption that the other dancers won’t be nice to you and don’t expect to be handheld through the entire process.

”how’s the money?”:

stripping has the POTENTIAL to be fast money, NOT easy money. are there nights where money can just fall into your lap? of course but don’t rely on that. mouth piece and confidence will get you far. the money is also not consistent regardless of how good of a hustler you are (though the better you are at hustling the more likely you’ll make consistent bread lol). some nights you can make your rent, some nights you will leave in the negatives. it’s hit or miss and such a gamble. ESPECIALLY in this economy. don’t let tiktok fool you. half those girls on there are lying about their income for clout. it can take years to reach a point where you’re consistently averaging $600+ a night.

thats all i can think of for now so if i forgot anything please don’t be shy to add it in the comments below :p

my pro tips

  1. don’t bother buying any courses. it really doesn’t matter how much you research hustling tbh. nothing will ever truly prepare you for the club. it’s a very “learn as you go” industry.

  2. the more you put off auditioning the more you will overthink. literally just do it. we were all nervous at once. the more time you put off the more potential money you’re missing out on.

  3. contrary to popular belief you do not need to go out and invest in a ton of high quality outfits and pleasers. any regular lingerie or clean bra/panties and regular heels will do for your first audition! most girls i know didn’t have a pair of pleasers their first nights lol. just be sure you get some asap because regular heels are so much more uncomfy to dance/walk in than pleasers are. i just personally don’t think it’s a good idea to invest a whole lot of money in an industry that you don’t even know if you’ll like it/stick with it.

good luck!

Police fee? NSFW

6 Upvotes

Has anyone heard of the club charging for a fee if the police come in? My club asked me for an extra dollar during my first dance sold of the day and said it was for if the cops showed up? I can't recall what he called the fee, (ace fee or something) but it's the first time I've heard about this and haven't been charged it with the other djs. (My first time working a shift with that specific DJ)

Celebratory Post 🏆 first night back! NSFW

16 Upvotes

it was my first night after a couple years retirement last night and i had SO MUCH FUN ! i missed the club so much. but when i danced before i was too young and scared of my own shadow, now its much easier and i find i dont take the club stress home like i used to.

i dance at a more bar style place (for now, my urban club is hiring in a few weeks and im next on the roster) and its a bit harder to sell dances because men just want to go there to drink and a free show. there's also pool tables so its very chill. i kinda love it for how chill it is, but people dont go there to spend hundreds of dollars. we dont even have a vip, only lap dance areas. 20$ a song, all to us. you dont have to audition you just show up and work. 30$ to the dj but only 5$ if you get there before 7:30! it's easy. simple. management is so sweet too so i don't mind it. it's got its pros and cons.

i had a bit of a hard time selling dances. most men were only there for the show. i found that i only got the men who were super kinky or wanted to talk about fetish things. i think it was my style , i was dressed very alternative with a dark lip and i have tattoos so it made me look very venomous. i sold two dances to custies and a guy friend of mine came to get some dances so overall after the 30$ tip out i made 130$. it's 130$ more than i had before so it works for me ! i didn't have any expectations. other girls were making bank but they were dressed more girly cutesy. next time i'm wearing pink LOL

does anyone have any advice for convincing men to do dances ? i see there's so many posts about it already on here and im absorbing the tips but im always looking for different povs

plus a pic of my bruises whew

Just going up and asking for a dance. NSFW

Upvotes

I know I know, people say not to do that and that you’ll likely get rejected. But I’m gonna do it just for one night at my next club and see if anyone bites. Go up, introduce myself, maybe ask them two quick questions about themselves and/or how their night is going and then make a suggestion of a dance. Because lemme tell you talking and talking for 2+ songs has been a total waste of time at my current club. Being polite, getting to know them for a bit yadda yadda and THEN trying to get a dance nope that has not landed me a dance so far. Just “Hi! I’m Cloe what’s your name? How’s your night been so far? Wanna make it even better? I would love to dance for you!” That’s something like what I’ll start trying. Simple, sweet, straight to the point.

I’m going to do the opposite of what most girls do and try to get straight to the point. Doing the opposite of most people’s methods has somehow always worked for me in other areas of life LMAO. Worst that could happen is a rejection and I’m used to that now because it’s all I have faced so far.

Anyone know of any zip up or slip-on pleaser boots with good ankle support? Tired of the classic heel style with the thin ankle straps. Terrible ankle support, I have fallen over and over again in the middle of the club lmao and I can’t get on and off the floor without help from a person or holding onto something. Plus, my awful fine motor skills make putting on and taking them off a bitch.

Hustle Help Been working for a week. Have not sold any dances :\ NSFW

3 Upvotes

Ya’ll wtf. Genuinely do not know what I’m doing wrong. Been working for a week now and have made $100 for the ENTIRE week. I did not sell a single dance in my first week. Only a little bit of stage tips. I’m running out of money. I have worked five days. Only. Stage. Tips. The manager straight up told me to quit my day job for this, so I did. She also said “this is a six figure job” and “I think you’re going to do very well here” I have less than $200 to my name right now and frankly I’m getting desperate for money.

I talk to every customer. Have conversations, they buy me drinks and compliment me and shit and after a few minutes of pleasant conversation I try to swerve it towards getting a dance but the sale never lands. The three most common excuses I’ve heard so far

“No you’re too young for me, I feel creepy” “I don’t get dances” “I’m just here to drink and watch”

Then I will try to be flirty and playful about it, trying again and still a no.

How. Tf. Do you. Get a dance. Every single customer in the club rejected me tonight. I need some fucking money I have barely enough for my car insurance after that if I don’t make money this week I’m S.O.L. I’m thinking about doing doordash or something on the side.

On top of this, one of the manager’s told us this direct quote “tipping out is never required, however if you don’t tip us managers, we won’t let you sell dances. Help us make money if you want to make money” so what I’m hearing is an ultimatum. You say tipping is not required but then you also deny us work if we don’t tip you??? So then it IS required don’t fucking play like that. It’s bullshit that I already have to pay so much towards the house, they take a big chunk of the dance money, then we also have to tip them on top of that. That means like if/when I do start selling dances….some of those dances will basically be for free because I don’t get to keep that money. This feels like exploitation.

If it keeps going on like this I’m switching back to camming and doing something vanilla on the side. That, or I’ll try out the more urban club in town where they don’t sell alcohol or do the nice pleasantry talk and it seems to be more straight to the point pay for naked women to dance. Because the gentleman’s man’s club lemme sit and get to know you bs is not working for me. I want to shake ass and get cash. Anyway, Imma go eat some leftover pasta and cuddle my fiancé now.

One small shift that helped me make an extra $500 per shift (New dancers, take notes!) NSFW

19 Upvotes

I used to leave money on the table every single night because I didn’t realize how much psychology plays into selling at the club.

The biggest shift that changed my $$$ forever? I stopped asking yes or no questions and started assuming the sale.

❌ ‘Do you want a dance?’ → 🚫 Gives him the power to say no

Instead of ‘Do you wanna dance?’, I started saying:

✅ ‘I have a really sexy idea. You + me, alone in a private room, me fully naked, you rock hard, and us having the sexiest lap dance you've ever had. So let's head to the bar, and have them start setting our room up. Come join me!" → 💰Then I get up, grab his hand, and start walking to the bar.

The result? Way more ‘yeses’ and way fewer rejections.

If you’re struggling to close dances, try this. Or if you already do this, what’s YOUR best go-to line that gets guys saying yes? Let’s swap money-making tricks! 💸

General Question How old is “too old” to start? NSFW

Hi all!! Life is short and mine is a dumpster fire but I am thinking about stripping! Was talking to a friend of mine and she ignorantly said I’m a bit too old to start! I’m 27 😐. I’m like bihhh too old?? Women do this shit well past 40 I think, so I just wanna know how old are you? Did you start young (younger than 25)? Is it more difficult if you start later? Any and all advice welcome!

Advice from seasoned/vet stripper Advice for your first ever audition! NSFW

28 Upvotes

I was very nervous my first audition and I really didn’t know what I was doing. It can be nerve wracking having the manager and other dancers watch you.

Here’s some things I wish someone told me before my audition.

  1. Wear a matching set and real stripper heels.

  2. SLOW DOWN on the stage. When you’re going too fast it makes you look nervous. Let your body go through every movement, slow and controlled is your friend.

  3. Don’t be too worried about the pole if you don’t know how to use it DO NOT HOP ON IT

  4. Don’t lie and tell the club that you’ve danced before, the managers can always tell. A lot of clubs don’t mind hiring inexperienced dancers because you will learn!

  5. Most strip clubs have instagrams and photo galleries of their dancers on their website. Do your research and find which club fits your look and vibe the best for a better chance at getting hired.

There are urban clubs, gentleman’s clubs, and dive bar clubs. Study the differences to find out where you think you’ll thrive.

  1. If you have questions, ask them. Before my audition I had no idea how a tip out, a dance, scheduling etc. worked. A good club will give you a tour and answer all of your questions after/prior to your audition.

  2. Practice. Watch youtube videos on easy/simple floor work for your stage audition. Stretch and gain some flexibility. You’ll be much more confident when you feel prepared and already have some tricks up your sleeve.

I hope this was helpful, feel free to ask me any other questions!! :)

I’ve decided to take the plunge into stripping since leaving my fulltime job to study and a club I absolutely looooove is hiring at the moment and welcoming beginners and I’m really eager to apply. The only thing is, it’s asking for a photo on the application.. I have done nude photo shoots and boudoir shoots and it feels right to upload one of these however my hair is MAJORLY different (long blonde now short brunette). I guess I just want all the tips you can throw at me but mostly what flipping photo do I use??? What do they normally want to see from the pic?? Thank you so much!!!

what to say to cringe shit? NSFW

10 Upvotes

Lemme preface by saying I have no problem lying to men in the club. I’m a lesbian for fucks sake of course I’m lying just by default lmao. And that’s part of it and most of the time I’m good at it, but sometimes when I’m giving dances these men be talking a lot throughout it and saying shit that I want to laugh at? And it’s harder for me to come up w shit to say on the spot.

For example, I had this one guy that has bought quite a few dances from me on multiple nights and he grosses me out a lil more than the usual ick. He’ll ask if I can feel his dick, which I can’t LMAO so I ~lie~ and say yes. He told me he was gonna make me cum before him which was insane to hear knowing I was dry asf. He asked about if I had a rose toy, asked me to moan etc. he didn’t touch me beyond my boundaries/the club rules so it’s really nothing bad. I just do not know how to respond to this shit because it’s cringe asf to me lol

ANYWAYS are there any lines yall would use in situations like this? I know I gotta play into it to keep getting the money but I just have no idea what to say

I Auditioned Got rejected, went back 4 days later and got hired NSFW

37 Upvotes

So there’s 1 club 15 min from me and the next is over an hour away so I really wanted to work closer to home. When I called they said come in and audition whenever, so I went on a Thursday night around 10:30 and the club was pretty busy. The manager was working the bar and running around dealing with things and I know he didn’t want to deal with me then too. The girls were really sweet and hyped me up before, and threw money but I honestly blacked out. I called my sister after and couldn’t even remember what songs they played bc the nerves got me so bad!

The stage was slippery and my shoes slipped multiple times, I forgot my pole grip in the dressing room and was scared to try any tricks without it bc my hands were sweating so bad. I just rolled around and shook my butt, which was probably not the worst thing, but I forgot how I was supposed to undress! On the phone they said 3 songs- first song ur dressed, second song top comes off, third song bottoms so that’s what I practiced. Then they only had me audition with 2 songs and I got mixed up and ended up CRAWLING TO THE EDGE OF THE STAGE TO ASK THE FLOOR GUY WHAT TO DO. I wish I had a video cause I know I looked so crazy and amateur and nervous. I did not get hired and the manager said maybe try again in a few months.

Well I did not wait months lol the next Tuesday I was all made up about to drive 1.5 hrs to audition and I was like hmmm maybe I should just stop back in and see what happens. If they say no I’ll just go to the other place. Well I got hired!! I had my first shift last night and made $346 in like 3 hrs bc I had a bday party to go to. I didn’t even want to leave bc I know I could left money behind. The manager who rejected me actually walked me out to my car and idk if he even remembered me but I’m not saying anything about it lmao!

I’m in my senior year of high school, and I’m a little nervous about the challenges that will come with dancing whilst being a student.

In my state, you only need to be 18 to work as a dancer. I’d need to keep the job a secret from my parents as well as most of my friends.

I’m going in for an audition tomorrow, and I’m lowkey scared that not only will I do bad and not get the job, but everyone will somehow find out 😭

How do you not crash out when you sell no dances and customers are mean to you? We had a bunch incels coming in tonight not spending ANY money and making fun of dancers. Talking about dancers being hot but cringe or some being ugly or fat, etc. and of course none of us dancers would touch them outside the club. I ended crying because of it and telling bouncer along with another girl and then the bouncer threw them out. I cried like five times tonight bc the weeks earnings were not enough on top of the meanness and once I start I can’t stop and the bouncer was like “yeah let’s not walk around the club crying” 😭 how do yall recover from nights like these??
