The look
Outfits, hair, persona: what actually sells.
Club makeup is heavier, warmer and more matte than street makeup, built for dim red light and the occasional blacklight, and it has to last six hours of sweat.
Your persona is a consistent character with one name, one voice and one look that customers can return to, promoted under an account that is not your club name.
Pick a stage name that is one or two syllables, ordinary enough to stop the real-name questions, and never connected to your legal name or socials.
Buy six-inch ankle-strap platforms, mold the clear straps with a hair dryer, and keep heels for work only, because they wear out your feet and your shoes.
Pigtails, red outfits, a signature scent: none is a rule, all are experiments, and the only way to know what works at your club is to track it by shift.
Two expensive-looking, easy-off sets that fit the club's dress code beat ten cheap ones; nothing goes over the head and nothing has a fiddly zip.
