Massage Parlor Reports

[QUOTE=TheBanger;7205654]I went by on Saturday. Seme was closed with the lights out, door locked. They don't answer their phone or text.[/QUOTE]Even during good hours, I don't think they made enough money. I know the rule of "pay what you think it's worth" and I always overtipped, I know that. But I think for the girls and the area, the juice wasn't worth the squeeze. Not with joy not being too far away and the other spas around. Kenosha can handle so many because they are not on top of each other and the only two that seem to directly compete with each other are VIP and Shanghai.

Liked the girls from Seme though. Felt bad one day I came in and pretty much was one of the girls lunch time and interrupted it.

Glad to see you're still with us mongers! I have to agree I loved the Hunan / Seme business model where the girls didn't beg for tips. It was nice not having to get off the table and go get your wallet out, for whatever service you got. And I always tipped correctly to continue that type of service. In fact, I never over tip. We all know the going rates here or at least most of us do.

I know my tipping was good enough because Yuyu was always trying to sneak me in to her room. They always claim that they don't discuss your tips with each other but I'm pretty sure they do. I was happy with the service I was getting from the other ones there, So my experience although good was limited with Yuyu. I do know this, if you got the service that you wanted but didn't tip correctly that service wouldn't be on the menu for you anymore. That's why the service always seem to get a little bit better on each visit. And Mimi always got in nice girls too. I liked all of them really. Menus were all over the place.

That's why the clientele there was more upper class than some of the other places in the area. I never seen so many different Escalades in one parking lot before. Besides that, The reviews from Joy and Relax did not impress me. Shiatsu may have taken some customers away though.

But we really don't know the reason why they're closed right now. I do agree that the rent was high there and they also had a nice apartment to go to every evening. They didn't have to sleep at the spa.

Considering the timing I am not sure if it is a rent issue. Rent is at the beginning of the month? If they were voluntarily closing it would likely be the end of the month. If you already paid your rent or owe it then you would not close in the middle of the month. We all know the Chinese never leave money on the table. So we may have a licensing issue or similar situation as Pink and Violet? The only other thing on the table is LEO visit?

But was nice when Mimi saw me for the first time in a few weeks (had a bit of a rough patch with home and work) she remembered me and I wasn't a number in the way of "oh this guy is back" more as "welcome back". I know she was fishing for info on why I was gone but I was blunt, job ate shit and got bought up by another. Didn't get my first paycheck until the end of the month. I still tipped her out correctly but did seem like she got it and was trying to be actually attentive in the massage.

Massage has to go low on the priorities for sure. I won't go unless I have cash for service and fair tip.

I can say that Mimi runs a pretty good operation, I've been to many of her places in the past and she know how to treat a client. And her policies are good. "don't beg for tips" Unfortunately, some guys find places they like better and settle in or, they just get bored. Same girl, same service. But, I liked being on the rewards program. The more you visited, the better the service. Mary and Yuyu were the best combination. Yuyu and Lisa were great, good looking team. Linda was just OK (seemed indifferent) and I never met the latest "New girl" Next thing you know, they were closed. It was the best around. Yuyu always made it interesting. I miss Mary also. Lisa may be around still I hear.

You are right, about the manipulation though. "Only you". Sure. Never fall in that trap.

They might have just wanted to get the place cleaned out for the end of the lease. Because I think they moved in last February so maybe that means maybe the year lease is up? They may have to have the place ready for occupation by March 1st so maybe that's why they closed early? It may be that the landlord already has it rented out. And it's such a shame because she spent so much money and made such a nice spa there.

Checking around I don't see anything about any LE activity. They might have also had a visit checking MT licenses. Not everything makes the news I guess.

They've been in there two years, and most leases run 3-5 from what I'm told. Annie once shared with me her finances and how many customers she needs a day to make it work. I have not spoken to her, but my guess is the store just wasn't busy enough to make ends meet.

What's weird to me there's it's only a 6-month business license.

What's interesting is the license has to renew every 6 months. Regardless, that's when I remember going there my first time was in February 2024.

I tried to upload the document, but it won't upload from my phone.

With all the talk of Seme and an empty parking lot with a closed door the other day, I ventured over to A-1. Lights were on and no cars were in the parking lot. I was met by a little young cutie, perfect in so many ways. She went by "Ide". Back walking was good. Allowed some OTC and did an above average reach down below and under massage to get me excited. Flip and finish was standard to good. Wanted to do more but not allowed. Still for such a hot chick I would think it would be good for business. I was there a while back and commented on the beauty that I had as a MT, but I do not remember if this one was the same. I had seen that Ide from Violet was now there, but she is a lot taller than the one I had. Outside of the room were voices so maybe they had three workers, but I only met the one.

Just adding this, MiMi asked me to keep an eye out for new rental locations outside of Racine about a month ago. She asked for me to keep an eye I'll admit, I did not due to not heading that way since my last visit. Too bad, I planned on being in the area next week.

Made a stop the other day. Had Lisa taller girl seemed late 30's very nice with some English. Message was ok some back walking. She was friendly and had no problem with otc. On the flip ended with standard finish with some utc roaming upstairs. Pushed a little for more but got the "no" "no" so I didn't push on the first stop. When leaving I did see a younger petite girl. Maybe next time I'll see if I can have her. Nobody else during my hour visit.
