Despite my obvious disinterest, a dancer was showing me her new tatoo as a conversation icebreaker. It was an intricate flower and heart pattern from her elbow to her shoulder. She said it was still sore.
Less than a minute later, she was complaining that she was broke. I was trying to break off the conversation and have her move on, so I didn't ask, "Okay. So how much did the tatoo run you? Think maybe you should have put that on your rent?"


Yes they are a rip off. One dancer has one angel wing on her back and claims she is saving up for the other wing. $1000 per wing and it requires multiple sessions plus tips!
