Interesting! Just sharing as I have not had an opportunity to participate lately. Received text today from my Mamasan friend. Known her for a long time. She recently reopened Pearl in Roswell. Business Slow (newly opened, but I understand the LE concern, plus add increased prices lately) She is trying an American strategy to boost business. So she is trying. One hour is now $59.99 and includes bathing. This is my own opinion, but maybe a great idea and could bring other shops prices down as well. Competition Guys!! Could it work? Or is she doomed because of Roswell shutdowns??
[QUOTE=TheWiseacre;5959657]Masseuses are transient across the board, whether in AMPs or in a legit shop like Massage Envy. It's not because of closed minded owners or a reluctance to modernize. It's because of the nature of the job and the kind of people it attracts. Not really sure how many owners you know, but the vast majority are not trolling stations and shelters to get workers. The traditional mode is classified advertising and word of mouth. And in Asian culture (like American culture), rub and tug massage shops are not the kind of employers most women like to tell their friends and family about.
Due to the nature of the business, Chinese (and to a lesser extent, Korean) culture is ideal for a business operating on the fringes of LE. For example, therapeutic massage more or less was invented in China. The Chinese culture is secretive and naturally averse to government. The list goes on and on. The industry will be slow to change because it works well this way.
Hats off to ML for stepping out and trying to change things. Other shops are following as well.[/QUOTE]Agree about the transient massage therapists. No matter what kind of shop, chiropractor, franchise, AMP, most masseuses work a short time and then move on. Many times I built a rapport with a therapist before learning she moved away. It didn't matter if she was legit or not. Actually most were legit and I got tired of having to go from place to place and build a new rapport while getting only a massage for more than I shell out at an AMP. A lot of the hiring or adding new talent comes from the Asian network. Owners know owners and move workers from shop to shop, city to city. Atlanta is still under caution from the killings a couple of years ago. But underground publications are present that lure workers to locations and those workers stay awhile before moving on. There are those who remain locally for a long time and those who migrate around the country. It's about an even mix.
[QUOTE=CrestWood87;5955932]Saw this place for the first time. It's called Amazing Massage on Chamblee Dunwoody Rd. Has anyone been here?[/QUOTE]It has been many years since I have been there- kind of surprised to hear it's still there. Depending on ownership over the years you could have happiness or not. Even when 'not' there was the occasional lucky session. During the early days when the treat your feet girls opened it I had an attractive younger girl finish the deal and said that was the first time and she wasn't doing it anymore. I believe it because she was terrible and never saw her again. Later an older lady was reliable, but new ownership wanted the girls to leave the doors cracked open, so I never returned.
Ok,
Because of all the traffic I went ahead and swung by completely out of my way (like a 45 minute drive here damn! I went by on Day 1 and was greeted by Gina who took me back to a room. She is definitely my style but unfortunately I was massaged by an older lady (40+) who's name I can't remember. OTC bottom and UTC top. Second visit was late 30's early 40's again don't remember the name because I honestly thought of just leaving, flat ass and no real chest to speak of. Massage was meh and OTC top and bottom, she wanted 100 for UTC top LOL. I am known to be generous but come on, UTC top for 100 but would only lift the bra not even take off. I forwent and left. Trying to book with Gina but every time she is either off or left early. Who should I ask for that is 20-30 and has a decent menu? So far not impressed but willing to give it another try.

Of course, there is also word of mouth or a combination. I think the shooting concerns are less than the risk of arrests due to the crack down in the 'burbs and next the amount of money they can make. As someone said, it is kind of a gray area where the 'polite' culture may not assume you are giving HJs if you work at a massage shop, but if you are arrested you obviously are and lose face which is a big deal to the Chinese. The girls know which places are giving HJs and which are not. Their main concern is the amount of traffic, if it is too slow or the tips are bad they move on.
Looking for some recent reports of good back walking experiences. Love the deep pressure when someone knows what they're doing. Bonus points if they use feet and oil / no sheet or (longshot) teasing the boys with their feet. Any advice for encouraging foot play is also appreciated.
[QUOTE=HughJaynus96;5959108]What kind of legal issues? I was there a few weeks ago and everything seemed cool as a cucumber.[/QUOTE]I was there Monday to see Korean Linda (they said they also have a Latina Linda, but I didn't see her). I'm interested in their legal issues since I go there on occasion. What's up?

[QUOTE=ChinaLove123;5958734]Ivy! Girls are hot and fun.[/QUOTE]LuLu is nice, but I don't know that I would call her hot. Is there a new hot girl?
[QUOTE=AtlantaFunGuy;5960399]Thanks night! You mentioned stopping by ML next week? I don't want to mislead you or anyone else. None of those girls have joined ML. At best, I believe one, maybe two will in the future. It's a new concept that has not become reality yet. If it wasn't for that one customer posting, nobody would even know. The girls were actually interviewed offsite for several reasons including possible business disruption; not really fair to customers.[/QUOTE]I'll be stopping by out of curiosity and to get the berries drained. I know who Angela, Cindy, Monica, Nancy, and Jennifer are. IMO, Monica is the only one who I'd want for a session. The rest are not worth the drive. How many other girls in the current lineup am I missing?
[QUOTE=Dudeatl;5961278]LuLu is nice, but I don't know that I would call her hot. Is there a new hot girl?[/QUOTE]Lili is the new hot one. Lulu isn't a 10 but her body is what I like.

She is cute with a hot body for her age and very sweet but legit.
