How do I go about asking to see the girls ? How would they know if I am there seeking regular massage or special services ?
also, do I pay before or after the massage ?
I think the shop will always be either regular, or "special". They are probably never both.
If it's a place that disguises itself as some sort of therapeutic spa, you can do some research like finding their ad on Leolist. Or, of course ask about them here.
If their website shows sexy pictures of the staff, that would be a sign as well. Seems like some shops are pretty obvious, and others look a lot like their reflexology, and accupressure counterparts. Their storefronts even use the same lingo.
Definately pay before. As far as I know, its fine to ask to see the girls, but I would feel awkward about it myself.
