Ooooh! I got a manicure one time and the lady rubbed the fleshy part of my hand between the thumb and index finger. It felt so good and when I remember, I do it on myself. My only worry is if I get a fat or/and hairy person.
@ slim, my mom told me for the longest about getting into cort reporting. It is money, but I wasn't willing to commit to it.
Its very important to have a trade or a lot of. Different skills cuz when things slow down or you get fired or laid off, there's always something you can do to make money.

yes i like to do massages i just luv how you it can really relax you, and in some cases put you in like a coma state then when you wake up its like you are energized, i remember finishing school and
going to this day spa for a parttime job and for the interview i had to give a full body, well with school we practiced on each other but we stayed in our underwear will when i went to do the massage on the interviewer she was butt butterball naked i mean nothing was on so i'm like i dont even a fuck i'm not doing the front but it may take a minute for you to be completely comfortable giving full body but i luv giving them and my man is now spoiled he gets massages 3 times a week now, but it is so interesting like if you have a headache there is this massage technique you do on the hands apply a little pressure and hold it for like 30 seconds it helps reduce it and in some cases the headache goes away and you will learn alot about the body, the only thing some ppl have body odor but i luv doing the hot stone that is the shit

you are right about the trade and it is an experience i have to tell you,but that’s why i only do family and friends, working as an intern i had to do all different types of ppl, and to be honest i didnt care for it, i had a hairy man that i was so scared to touch, i had a woman who smelled like pure d fish, i had a man that was dirty as hell and the bottom of his feet were dirty and his toe nails were black like they died so after those i just decided that i was only go to do this part-time, but i luv the spa techniques like the mudd or seaweed bathes, exfoliating and how you fell after i want to own my own spa actually i want to have 4 different ones, 1 on the west coast, 1 down south, 1 east coast, and 1 over seas like in Jamaica i want it to be like a one stop shop for the ladies like when you are about to go out you can come and get your hair & nails done, get a facial &massage, get some healthy food to eat, get your makeup done professionally, and if you dont want to go all the way home to get dressed you can get dressed inside the dressing rooms or if you are missing something like underwear, accessories, perfume, personal products, etc it will be a store in their that caters to women

Follow your dreams no matter how hard it gets and no matter how others try to shut you down. Don't give up, don't take no for an answer, and don't let fear hinder you. Most importantly, believe that your dream will come true and that you will be taken care of on your way there.

Hey bella what r u looking to do in the fashion Industry? Retail merchandising, buyer,PR,marketing? I think once u narrowed it down I would definitely takes fashion related courses that way when recruiters look through ur resume they will c that u r trying change careers or industry. Also make sure that you write a cover letter stating Ur interest in the industry. Lord knows I hate looking thru resumes and a person has years of experience in finance then wants to become a personal trainer and don't explain why.
