[QUOTE=Iabps;2671895]Salem is open again. Seems they just went out for a while to get some remodeling done. Very nice inside now but same ladies inside. I didn't have time to stay but table showers 10 for 10 minutes was advertised. I'll try to go soon but keep us updated if you get a chance to stop in.[/QUOTE]Stopped by this afternoon and was greeted by two Asian ladies, one in her 20's and the other about 40. Quoted40 for hh and 60 for hour (also mentioned 4 hand without price). Told them I would return in a couple of hours.
Got back at 8:00 and paid $60 for full hour and asked for Deep Tissue, they said "strong", I said OK. Sure enough the older lady showed me to my room, as the younger one told me to tell her " stronger" if I needed. Might be a language barrier ahead.
It's been over 30 years since I've been to a massage parlor, and I have the Forum to thank for my return. As I've been reading, I hope I could take the "proper" attitude in and see what developed.
I got a pretty decent massage! Not exactly like an LMT I know that is a guru / God of manipulation (who charges 80/ hr plus a $20 tip. But he IS good).
This lady put some effort into it, front and back. Because of the posted signs that said No Sexual Conduct, I left my underwear on when I went face down. But the rub down on the back was so good and with a little teasing, that I discarded them on the flip.
Some teasing on front, then strictly rub down. She went the full hour, and since I was new and their might be a language barrier, I never made any overt moves.
After I dressed they were both at the front desk, I thanked them both, slipped my masseuse a $10 and told the younger girl I would be back, and I will, and will show a couple of Jacksons to my masseuse, before we start.
[QUOTE=Tnt368;2671369]I am not arguing or bragging.
Why would you tip anything for DIY? Going Rate? 40-60? It sounds like I visit as often as you and my usual tip is 20 and maybe 30 for something extra special. I have reasonable luck and they are always happy to see me again. There are a lot of variables that may play into tips but you guys are creating the situations of these girls demanding more for nothing.
Just my opinion.
TNT.[/QUOTE]I'll tip 40 on diy if the girl is nice and the massage was good. If the massage sucks, the girl has a rude attitude and gets impatient during diy, I only leave 20. Every time I've tipped only 20 on diy they look pissed off. I'm never a jerk or overly pushy. I'm always respectful and generally give the girl the benefit of the doubt.
I can JO for free. If they offer diy, I decline. Do they remember me? Hell yes they do. I'm that asshole that tips zero when they offer diy. The next time I go in, I leave happy and tip $20. I've heard about more than standard he but have never had it. This example hurts all our chances. If they are getting $30- $40 for nothing, then nothing is what you and those that follow this example will get.

We as consumers or mongers have to set the market not them. I never go back to any place that doesn't, and I will explain to them whether they like it or not.
Slide.
[QUOTE=Hooter12;2587862]Had a nice massage today at Beechmont. I am definitely a regular and a HE without my assistance was accomplished. I don't know why others have problems there. You just have to know who to get with I guess. YMMV.[/QUOTE]Please PM details as I've been searching for a good spot close to home where I can relax and release my day away.
Had a nice 1/2 hour dream with Scarlett (massage Scarlett) today. Nice office setting in Florence, pretty lady, decent massage and a very nice ending. She is very health conscience and fit, great smile, fun personality.
I would not hesitate to see her again, MUCH better than the AMP's around here.

Some people have more money than Cents. Or was that sense.
Tipping is for Service and the level of Service dictates the tip. Seems pretty easy to me.

[QUOTE=ScarlettOHara3;2678879]Thanks for the nice review. Hope to see you again! You have to try the one hour, much better.[/QUOTE]I will leave the gum at home next time too LOL.
I Googled what you told me and couldn't find anything close to what you told me BTW.
I never posted a review of Scarlett when I saw her primarily because I never asked if she wanted one but as others have posted I will add a little. Scarlett is quite an attractie lady, one might say that she is beautiful. She has a killer body and a very nice personality. Her massage is more than acceptable, it is actually quite good which is pretty remarkable for the quality that I have received from some other ladies. Now for the bad, she drinks this green stuff that looks like water with algae in it, LOL. It must be good because she is so damned easy on your eyes and her body is simply superb. I would readily repeat with her but she is so damned far away. I will be making that arduous drive again, of that I am sure As always.

She is also one of the few providers that always answers texts or calls. She seems to have her head on straight and oh yea a really nice rack.
[QUOTE=ScootinSteve;2638018]Went to the flower spa and had the new lady that uses the far back room. This is my third time being there since the new girls took over. The massage was okay but the end was great. Ill take it.[/QUOTE]I've heard a few reviews on the Flower Spa but no location as been given, if anyone knows where this is please PM I would like to try this place as well.
Although this is actually my first report, I've visited a few times. Today was my second time in the last 72 hours, and yet again I'm seriously disappointed. My first visit this week was ok, I got a younger lady (Mid 20"s) was cute. She left the room I disrobed entirely and laid face down on the massage table. She asked me Soft, medium or Hard. I said Medium please and she covered my back with a towel and began stretching it out. A few minutes pass she takes the towel off and begins to really doing a good sensual massage rubbing and teasing my body. Offered hot towel which I accepted and felt nice, and then flipped me over. Covered me back up and began to work on my chest and legs with a little more teasing around the boys area. She asked if I needed oil for a DIY and I respectfully offered 60 for her to do it for me, she declined as well as did I. I don't pay extra for something I can do myself at home. She gently rubbed me more till my time came to an end. I tipped her 20.00 for the massage which was really decent and she said she wanted 40.00 for the 90 minutes. I told her I would if she would have helped but 20.00 was all I was going to give her for just a massage.
Came back today, walked in and the same girl came to the front. I asked for another 90 massage and she took me to the room. Same thing happened I disrobed entirely laid on the table and she did her thing. Covered at first on the backside then uncovered with less teasing this time and more massage. It felt really good which is why I came back hoping to get a repore with her or another lady there. She flipped me over worked my chest, my head and my legs less teasing anywhere and this time didn't even offer a DIY. Tipped her another 20.00 and she said thank you. Maybe my friends who steered me in this direction has someone there other than her because I haven't had any luck thus far, but would love to know where to look for a good H. E.

The girl just spent an hour with you giving you a massage (bad or not). Not tipping because you didn't get a handy just makes you a jerk.
Tip on the service. The better the service, the better the tip. $20 for a one hour massage by an LMT as a tip is pretty normal.

But for these non-theraputic rub downs I have to tip for Service of some kind. When there's no personality, no extras then there are no extras in compensation. Small tip for effort, but no reward for being treated like I'm on an assembly line. I'm really not a tight guy, and tip over 20℅ at restaurants daily, but when I'm in a location for a massage that's run like Jiffy Lube, I'm not so generous to part with my gratitude for so-so service.
Just saying. LM.
