This post is likely of little help to veterans but perhaps will be helpful to newbies.
While I have some years of experience in the larger massage scene at places like Allure and Steeles Royal, until today I had not indulged in any Asian semi-legit experiences. To the veterans, particularly those who have contributed to this thread, I say thank you. The information you provided helped me to have a very satisfying experience with Cassie at Mei's this morning.
Here are the important details: Cassie was available when I called from the parking lot. Once in the door I paid the $65 room fee for one hour and in the room laid out a $100 tip on the counter. As a first timer at this kind of spa and meeting Cassie for the first time I had decided on a pretty passive wait and see approach rather than making specific requests about what the tip might entitle me to. I know this was somewhat risky on my part because, of course, I might have got nothing more than a massage. However it seems that Cassie got the message of the tip perfectly: the massage proceeded in stages, first quite hard pressure through the draping, then staged removal of the draping with the use of massage oil, then gentler and much more intimate touch, teasing as good as I've ever experienced anywhere and on the flip a BS and HE. To be honest, afterward Cassie whispered something about a 'shower for us' I think, but I'm not sure I heard her right, so I didn't leap off the table while she showered herself. Now that the ice has been broken, I'll look forward to a SF2 the next time.
To newbies who are thinking about visiting Cassie at Mei's: First a disclosure that biases my commentary: I'm seventy-one years old and, er, not the man I used to be. At this stage I require the attendant to be somewhat, er, patient. Having said that, I believe that at this kind of spa the expectations you have going in will be key determinants of how satisfying you find the experience to be. With Cassie at Mei's you will not have enhanced, drop dead gorgeous twenty-something year olds who pass their hands over you in unskilled ways in the name of massage followed by a jerk. What you will get is a high quality full body massage from an attractive woman who seems to know what she's doing right to the very end. I found today's experience very satisfying and since my expectations do not go much beyond the service I received, I doubt that I will ever go back to the creepy scenario of a twenty-something year old jerking this seventy-one year old body.
Could the experience have been better? Yes. Although at the beginning I tried to get some conversation going with Cassie, she seemed more intent on quietly doing her work, so there was little in the way of personal connection. Perhaps as a newbie here I simply didn't understand that this is the norm. Is it? In any event, toward the end of the massage, due to this lack of connection, the moans and sighs that accompanied the most intimate parts of the experience came across as simply dishonest. I'd have preferred continued silence but this is a very minor complaint I'm making.
I hope newbies find this post helpful and, again, veterans, thanks for your contributions.
