So is semi-legit scene mostly dead now?

[zancrow]

So once the quarantine is lifted and spas are able to open up, will semi-legit places even come back??
are places like Ellegance, JR, E&M, Suko coming back or are they gone now?

 

[kittyhound69]

So who’s the girl on your picture? I’ll go see her

the strongest will continue. the weakest will be eliminated. survival of the fittest.

We'll see who was smart with their money and who wasn't. Then who will be smart with their health....and who won't. I'll just sit here and watch the parade go by

Some spas are not Forever....lol

The real question is .... Once everything reopens,......
Who will you trust to be near you,
Breathing on you,
Exposing you to their staff AND their clients

My guess is those who show SAFETY FIRST While delivering the same level of service they had before, WILL CONTINUE.

either way it will be a while before we all go back to the same levels of service as before

Well think about the RMT's and the Chiro's and Physios. They are int he same boat as semi-legits, maybe even more of a crazy boat as their rents are higher. Follow those Colleges and see what their plans are. Half of those folks going under? maybe... JR...I miss you!!!

JR will never go under. JR is well managed and doesn't need to worry about the rent. Might even take over another bigger spa which was struggling way before the shut down. Ellagance is also ok and strong enough to weather the storm. Those who have invested in 2-3 properties with no rental income and having mortgages to carry plus the rent of the spa might be struggling.

The 3 big spas at hwy7 and Warden, hwy7 and McCowan and the one at Pharmacy and Steele are the ones we have to keep our eyes on. Those three were already struggling to make ends meet way before the Covid time.

Some spa owners, as they mostly know eachother, may have to shut down. Some may partner up and reopen until their funds are strong enough to go back and open solo. This is a way I can see it happening

 

[Happyman]

Spa would like Tourism business, strong ones would survive or even prospers again but the recovering road would not be straight forward. Some Spa owners told me that they are prepared to work just by themselves during the initial open up because girls are scared to return to work.

I'm more curious about whether prices will go lower to attract new clients or will they go higher because demand will be high initially, or will they just stay the same. I'm sure if guys can hold out, spas will likely drop their prices at first.

there are spas on hwy 7 and Warden and hwy 7 and MCcown?

The flirt spa at Pharmacy and Steeles is ridiculous to begin with. Different prices depend on whether the mpa is a senior flirt or junior flirt. Mary's new Angel spa is a dump to begin with.

Be careful what you say. Expanding too fast will haunt you. Look at Target Canada. JR accept insurance claims right?

 

[Happyman]

I don't think KJ refers to Flirt which is located at Victoria Pack, when he mention a big spa at Pharmacy and Steele. There is an Asian Spa there.

Hard to say. Clients may be less but the number of girls may be reduced too. The good ones probably will still have enough to do and may not lower the price but may be more service oriented, more open to fulfill requests by clients.

I really hope you’re being facetious

Duuuuude!!!! That is true but Forever ain't the only good game in town. There are others too. But this game is golf and not basketball. Slow and steady will ensure longevity. Missteps might prove fatal, reputation, money and life wise.

ALOT OF THESE SEMI-LEGIT GREEDY WHORES ARE 50+ YEARS OLD. IF THEY GET THE VIRUS, CHANCE OF DEATH IS NOT ZERO BABY!

 

[joedesign]

My guess is that majority will close their current shop and open up another location. Will be far cheaper to renovate or take over a current shop and install a new banner than pay the couple of months' unpaid rent.

Thought SL was busy, looks like only for a short period of time. Service service, girls quality decides the future of a spa.
