I work hard, my muscles get sore and I find I feel better overall if I get a weekly beatdown, like a hard painful massage from a sadistic masseuse. I also like a long, thoughtful, enthusiastic, uninhibited hj at the end. I don’t need a gorgeous girl and in fact find that the pretty ones usually rest on their laurels and never learn to be great at their job. For the last couple years Helen down in Chinatown has ticked all the boxes but she’s been away and over the last few weeks, I’ve been looking for a, I hate to use the word replacement but that might be it. Below, in list form is the tale of the hunt.
First stop: Monica at Magic Hands. Solid but not quite the antidote. Nice girl, Korean, 45ish. Good massage, good finish but neither quite good enough. Space is huge and very clean. Discreet entrance.
Christie at Sensual Spa. She’s a home run if you want what she’s got. What’s that? A juicy bod and pretty face combined with a nice but not terribly strong massage followed by a very sexy finish. 30-something. If I was shopping for what she’s selling I’d feel like I found the one. The space is in a building that’s being renovated. They didn’t have hot water the day I was there so no shower but she said normally they do. The room I was in was very small. The entrance is on Broadway, not so discreet. Might repeat one day.
Vickie at Eve Spa in nolita. Made an appointment with Vickie, got there and the girl said “Vickie no work today.” OK. There were two others , both attractive but I’m not risking my time/money on random girls. Vicky was a solid recommendation from an experienced member here. I walked and in a way am glad it didn’t work out because the location is on a busy street. Not ideal at all. Texted with the mms about what happened. Sounds like it wasn’t an intentional bait and switch but who knows.
Next (attempted) stop a couple days later was Helen’s friend at A-Spa who I’ve been ambivalent about seeing but thought what the hell. Texted, made appt, got there right on time and rang the bell. She came to the door and said she’d taken another appointment and can I come back in half an hour. Two letter answer: no. And not ever. My time is valuable. If she can’t keep an appointment it’s a no go. Too bad for her.
Back down to fidi at Samsun Spa. Also a recommend from someone here. Met Sunny. Weird vibes, place not so clean, didn’t have a shower. I bailed.
Maiden Lane Spa where I saw Danna lots of times a year or so ago. She’s retired now. I saw Yumi kind of on a flier. She’s short, solid, 45-ish, Korean. Laid back and cool. Nice conversation. Good massage. Good finish. In the Monica league, maybe a touch better. She’s a near miss. I like her. She recommended Su for good massage. Going to try her when schedule allows.
Couple notes on others in town. . .
Angela at Green Qi note. . . she’s the bomb and I’ll always see her from time to time but the therapeutic part for me isn’t quite it. She doesn’t bring as much pain as I need.
Bibi at Skyline was a goto before the pandemic. She’s not in town very often anymore and I’ve lost touch with her. She’s definitely not afraid to bring it, indeed she sometimes reminds me of a large animal veterinarian. But skyline is a little too far north for me and her irregular schedule is an obstacle.
Joyce on Grand St. Heard the massage is very good but I dunno. Whole jam seems seedy as hell. I don’t want as much service as it sounds like she offers. Not going there.
So that’s it for now. Will update when I’ve got more intel. I feel confident that the unicorn is out there. Just gotta find her.
