I have no energy left to write about any kind of serious topic anymore. So for my final(?) post of the night, I think I’ll write about my nervousness about possibly being a short-haired stripper. Because guess what! Sometimes I am really fucking self-conscious!
And when I say “stripper” of course I am referring to my plans to go to amateur night next summer. I’m thinking positive thoughts about it - I am going to KICK ASS! By that point I should even know how to go upside down.
But see, I feel kind of uncomfortable bc I wonder what people think of a short-haired stripper. I didn’t see any strippers at the Pink Pony with hair as short as mine. Some of them had kind of short hair but it was like just above shoulder length (like the one who kind of looked like a darker-skinned version of Dacia - glasses and everything - and I wanted to get a lapdance from her but then she went away). When you have short hair like mine you can’t sling it around all cool. In pole dancing class, it looks awesome when some of the women with longer hair do that shit.
I’ve been thinking about growing my hair out, just as an experiment… because I’ve had it this length for almost 10 years, and I wonder what would happen if I grew it out. Tentatively I’m going through with it, but I don’t know how long I’ll stay committed… because the thing is, I HATE messing with my hair. If it takes more than 30 seconds, I can’t be bothered.
And plus, I kind of feel like, if I decide NOT to grow my hair out, then I should go to amateur night and represent for all the sexy short-haired girls out there! And everyone who’s an asshole about it will be like, “Hot damn, look at her dance, she’s really good… maybe short-haired strippers are okay after all!” (I might spike it up a little or something, but nothing too elaborate.)
So what do you think of short-haired strippers. And have you seen any at any clubs or anywhere?
Oh and one other slightly off-topic thing… for anyone who comes along here and wants to spout off at the mouth like a dumbass… I will just say once AGAIN for the record, YES, this pole dancing thing has been REALLY fucking empowering and liberating for me! It is without a doubt one of the best things I’ve done for myself in 2006, and I have high hopes for things only getting BETTER in 2007!!

Who says you have to commit to growing your own hair? A wig, that’s your solution right there.
Rock the short hair with like fingerwaves or something.
I say keep it short. By now most strip bar go-ers are probably bored with long hair and looking for something different . . .
So why not take the empowered, liberated thing a little further and say “I like my hair this way, and I’m going to strip. Deal with it.”
Hair extensions?
I’d say represent the short-haired girls out there. The pixie look needs to make a comeback at some point, because damn, that is a easy haircut.
Based on the few strippers I’ve met IRL, a lot of them actually do have short hair and wear wigs onstage. In many cases, making their stage look and outside-work look very different is quite deliberate.
Huh. Well, fuck that noise - when I do it, I am going to be the same me up on stage as I am in every day life!
M@ber, you know short hair can be hot. It’s all about the attitude you bring with it.
i know short haired strippers…even was one once upon a time.
Blondie wears a wig. But that’s a special case.
