Massage Parlor Reports

[QUOTE=SwallowMyLoad1;2921680]Had some free time today and passed a place I hadn't noticed before on Chain Bridge in Woodbridge (Better You Wellness? The Massage light was on but the Open sign was not; the door was also locked and no answer when I found the backpage ad ([URL]http://nova.backpage.com/TherapeuticMassage/best-massage-to-make-a-better-you/23016359[/URL]) so not really sure what the deal is there.

By that point though, I really wanted a massage, so I went over to CH Massage on Chain Bridge as well. I pass it all the time and figured I'd give it a try.

Parking is rough. There's literally about 10 spots that are shared between that location and the neighboring businesses.

The entrance door is directly beside a dentistry, so I'm sure I was getting looks.

I was a greeted by a cute mamasan who took me back to a room. The rooms are not private. The "door" is just a curtain that they close, so and there is no ceiling separation either, so there's almost no privacy at all.

The therapist was a 4 on the eyes, 7 with the body though. Her massage was decent though I twice had to tell her to stop going at it so hard. She continued with it being to hard and I was tired of asking, so didn't enjoy the massage as much as I had hoped.

On the flip, though she came close, there was no touching. After the "tap" and "all done", she rolled fairly quickly. I heard another customer come in, so maybe that played a part.

Left unhappy.[/QUOTE]These places are on Old Bridge Road, not Chain Bridge. Happiness depends on who you draw, but probably only about 25% of the time.

Went back to see my ATF this week on the upper Paris location in Chantilly. I had not been there in a few months, I had tried several other locals but only one had been remotely close to satisfying me.

I called ahead, and the girl on the phone asked if she could call back on this number. I appreciated the gesture. My preferred provider called back to set up a specific time. I had tried to see her and expanded my range when she was unavailable. As I entered, another girl remembered me. My provider has gracious and then some.

The *best* massage I have had, friendly service, and clearly a believer in 'loyalty rewards' for returning customers.

Provider made sure I understood to call or text her cell # directly for appointments. I think I have been reticent to push for that, but the only #s I would have only asked for was hers, and possibly a fine girl over at Cosmos.

100% HE since I tried this hobby, but this was closer to something more sublime.

Northern Virginia, known as NOVA, like suburban MD is a subsection of Washington DC on BP rather than being under VIrginia.

[QUOTE=Niteluvr;2909599]Fellas, heading up to NoVa soon and wanting to partake in Springfield, Woodbridge, Fairfax and Herndon or areas close by. I don't see a section for NoVa on Backpage, so where can I find ads for CAMPs (Chinese Asian Massage Parlors / KAMPs (Korean Asian Massage Parlors)? I will RTFF but would like a basic ad source since I may not be able to find enough intel on the forum before I go. Looking for standard NoVa finish and more.

PM if need be and if you need assistance for a trek to Atlanta, PM as well.

Much obliged,

[QUOTE=Sommelier13;2921554]My first report finally.

I dreamed I met an Asian girl named Candy at NWT. Obviously not the girl in the pictures, but she was quite cute, maybe mid 30's, around 4'9, 105, tight bubble butt, small but perky tits with long nipples. There was some tummy stretch marks, but she hides it well. She got topless for me, and only left bikini bottom on.

She had very soft, nicely toned skin and gave an excellent HE (which she should have, I dropped $. 5 hoping FS was available) but that was about it, massage was a rub at best. The faux BJ was quite nice though, with spit, breathing very close and heavy on Johnson. I think she would offer CFS or at least CBJ if she knew me better. She may have gotten slightly worked up, by the small damp spot on her bikini bottom. My dream was rather relaxing, I would have it again.[/QUOTE]In your earlier posts you mentioned were visiting and didn't have time to do research and unfortunately that mix of factors has ended up costing you some $. I have no idea what the AMP scene is in Anchorage, or any of your other mongering areas, but in NOVA it's rare to find an AMP where FS is on the menu and even if there are some that option would almost never be available for a first-time client.

The general tipping benchmarks have been discussed often in this forum and most of the time you'll see mongers paying 40 for a clothed HJ, 60 if the top comes off or if substantial roaming is allowed and around 80 for oral options (give or receive). Of course, there are variations around these amounts depending on a few other variables, but those are pretty much the going rates. From your description it sounds like Candy provided somewhere around the 60-80 level of service.

Don't know how long you'll be staying in the area but hopefully those guidelines will help you if you visit another AMP. Of course, if you see Candy a second time don't be surprised if she expects $150 again. One problem with tipping too much is that it skews things on future visits. Of course, you could always see another girl but don't let Candy see you or she'll almost certainly tell the other girl what a generous tipper you are.

Happy hunting and stay safe!

Happy hunting and stay safe![/QUOTE]The first point is true, and not much you can do other than play as straight as possible and hope for the best on limited time.

As for the latter point, far too true. The first two places I visited, I tipped a little more after I fell for the acting, then hoped to earn future 'goodwill' before I knew anything. The first place I eventually revisited three weeks ago. First provider saw me enter and chatted with new provider while I got ready for table shower. Massage was below average, finish was a gloopy lotion avalanche, and the expected tip was far too high. I tipped based on Jim's guidelines and the grief and final act acting isn't worth dealing with. Not planning on returning as my price 'rep' is apparently higher than the service provided.

I suppose the easiest way to sum it up, is our own rep is earned by our actions. It really is a two-way street.

I am to 'drive' respectfully at all times.

Hey Derringer, many thanks to you sir for your help in the NOVA area. I don't get down that way much, but I will now! Thanks for helping a fellow monger out. Dick.

Was in the area and decided to hit Fran Wellness. It was 7 or so in the evening and was able to see an attendant (Nicole) right away.

Since she was new to me, I went with the 1/2 hr option. The massage itself was average to good. She asked who I've seem before, when was the last time I was there, etc.

Then she started asking how much I tip, I don't like to play that game. I told her depends on the service, 40-60-80 depends on you, maybe she didn't understand but she wouldn't let up.

I got so frustrated I said, OK thank you. And got up: she knew I was ready to bolt. All of a sudden her attitude changed and she and asked me to stay as she reached for JR.

What's a guy to do, so I sat back down on the table and she looked me in the eye while making Mr happy while giving me pecks on the lips.

This got me going and I settled down. After she went to wash her hands and finished with some face / scalp / shoulder massage. It was unnerving for a bit but ended well.

Years ago there was a Spanish chick that worked there, she was way hot.

T.[/QUOTE]Great example of how to flex the market power that comes with the client's control of the cash side of the cash-service transaction. You did it without being rude and her response was textbook.

Kudos for reminding us all that we don't have to allow ourselves to be price-takers in the hobby marketplace.

P.S. I'm just guessing but I wouldn't be surprised if Nicole opened up even more to you on future visits (if you're so inclined).

I am to 'drive' respectfully at all times.[/QUOTE]I'm guessing a lot of mongers have had experiences that have messed up their relationship with a specific AMP or masseuse. Sometimes it's because of getting a rep for overtipping such that it becomes too expensive to keep visiting. And of course sometimes it's an issue with the MMS or one or more of the masseuses. IME, one classic scenario is when one girl starts to see you as her exclusive client and trying to see any other masseuse brings about an extreme amount of drama. This happens even more often if the client is a nice guy, handsome and a good tipper.

The good news is there are plenty of other AMPs to visit as you learn from your experiences. I don't visit AMPs as often as I did in the past (prefer indies more) but I've always found it useful to have 2 or 3 "go to" places as it kept me from visiting one place too often and getting caught up in any drama. If things at one AMP got to the point where one girl became too possessive, I could then easily visit one of my other spots. If the possessive masseuse gave good service then I would still keep her in my rotation but I always made it a point to never see any of the other girls at that spa. The girls talk constantly among themselves about clients and even if the girl was on vacation or on a day off, it's a 100% certainty that she would find out and then the service level would probably go down (and the drama would go up). If for some reason I had to drop an AMP from my rotation it was good to have the other backup options while I tried out new spas to take its place.

IMHO, it's always good to have some low-cost (relatively speaking) options in your pocket and AMPs are perfect for that. With a little care you can become just enough of a trusted regular at 2-3 places while at the same time sidestepping potential drama situations. And when it comes to tipping protocols we should all read and heed Telcova's recent post (below).

Happy hunting and stay safe.
