Well Summer is just about over. Mystery Mika has been having a great time at Pantyhose Haven but is looking forward to a nice Autumn of taking my Show on the road. Pantyhose Haven may be slowing down. There will only be one Pantyhose video added each week or when I’m motivated.
The good news is that Mystery Mika will be coming to a Beauty Shop near you offering several treats!
The Hair documentation on my somewhat mainstream and low key youtube channel is attracting more views per day than any other thing that I have going. Hair Care and Hair Style is a popular subject which makes me optimistic about taking this Hair matter a step further.
Keep up to date with my Salon Features by subscribing to my youtube channel. I will be documenting special occasion, streaking, frosting , conditioning, relaxer hair processes.
One funny thing that I’ve noticed during my time behind the camera at the Salon is that Fetish does not escape the Beauty Salon. People have fetishes around Rollers and Capes to start. So not to leave any group out Mystery Mika will purposely strike a pose-
Sexy American tap dancer, Singer, Actress and Showgirl Ann Miller (God Bless her Heart April 12,1923 – January 22, 2004) invented the Pantyhose in the 1940’s as a solution to continual torn stockings during filming of dance production numbers. Before Ann’s Pantyhose idea the common practice was to sew hosiery to briefs worn by the Entertainer. At Ann Miller’s request, her hosiery was manufactured for her as a single piece!
Look at this legend go! Mystery Mika wants one of those classy black costumes. The feathered sides make her look so elegant. The black hosiery is a magnificent accent.
Here we have another Ann Miller performance. It is difficult to tell but it looks as though she has sewn black appliques to the hips of her hosiery. I may be able to whip up a Mystery Mika version of this costume.
Now enjoy Ann’s yellow bottom shaking the blues away! Love it baby. This is show biz all dressed up in beautiful expressive Pantyhose. All Hail the Inventor!
Are you in love with Ann Miller yet? If you have a Pantyhose fetish then watching the Showgirl who put the panty and the hose together is too damn hot!
Kisses Cadettes! Yet another Mystery unfolds. This Pantyhose summer of 2008 will be amazing as we push and run with the Pantyhose.
We live in the age of the individual. Blogs and How to videos are popping up all over the place. Not only is Mika’s Showgirl School an advice blog- it is post sex education.
Everyone is curious about sexy stuff. Writing about sexy stuff is a guaranteed hit. Unfortunately just being sexy can’t and won’t get a girl through life. Which is why Mystery Mika has been very busy defining the virtual http://www.mysterymika.com .
It has been my pleasure to design a portal to many thought provoking sites and people who are willing and able to share their useful advice and experiences. Sometimes wisdom is best said from the mouths of babes literally!
I haven’t put my finger on what it is that I do that helps people to open up when I ask a question but I am truly grateful for the oportunity to document experts in all the trades covered so far.
Instead of just using these skills to get a dance, I’ve moved to phase 2 which is pure Journalism.
If you are not new to Mika’s Showgirl School then you already know that I believe that to be a good Showgirl you must multifaceted and mature. A young lady must be able to listen and communicate with people across the cultural spectrum.
Walk with me as I take the Show to the streets of Chicago. My video taping style is no frills or fancy edits. My camera doesn’t have a microphone portal. So I must rely on the in camera mic to pick up the sound. I’ll save my slickness for the club. What you have on my youtube channel is raw footage, no budget, straight to the point interviews and documentation of Life experiences and need to know information.
If you have an opportunity, start asking questions that you really care about the answers to. It will take time to be able to tell when someone is answering with their ego and not their intelligence but eventually you may learn something.
As a woman, I write for women. I have spent years not knowing how to be what was expected of me. Hopefully my Summers’ video blog and channel will encourage ladies to reach for the stars and become one that shines.
If calling myself Pornography drives readers to Stumbleupon my site- then by all means call me pornography. Where else can Mystery Mika be slipped into a category?
‘Post Sex Education’ as a term hasn’t really been coined yet.
As long as I don’t end up being questioned by the police- guess things are alright.
When Elvis started with his leg shaking and pole tricks he was censored because parents didn’t like the idea of their teenage daughters fainting
Personally I don’t care who he ’stole’ his moves from. Elvis was jamming like a ‘mo fo‘
Elvis makes pumping trash look so easy!
Where do Strippers really fall on the food chain? I posed this question this morning to my twitter followers.
A nice lady responded: Strippers fall right below exotic/pole dancers and right above prostitutes.
The main idea seems to be that strippers come in above prostitutes for people who don’t find what Strippers do amazing or involving skill.
As far as being Entertainers, what do most people classify Stripping as? Who is brave enough or desperate enough to do it?
It really depends on who you ask. Stripping is the topic of many hip hop songs.
Check out these Pole lite Girls from Manhattan, New York. Gosh, I will I’d thought of this!
I would bet my right Ugg boot, that the majority would say that stripping is cheap entertainment.
There is of plenty sexy stuff in our mist to have conversations about but most people are too tongue tied.
For the most part, it is good for business that the mainstream can’t get away from being shy when it comes to talking about sex.
If you have never gone to a Gentlemens’ club, then you have no idea of what a pole trick really looks like on stage. Maybe we should just keep it that way.
The women seem wicked. All poke yo booty stuff gets lumped into the same category.
I am completely surprised that Victoria Secrets catalogs make it out in regular mail without having to be sealed in plastic.
Who am I to upset this delicate balance that keeps our society sneaking around and feeling guilty?
This is the only translation that I was able to find on the Internet. All my French friends are still sleeping.
Thanks to youtube member BEKERIANO I can offer this black and white video link of Frances Gall performing Les Sucettes.
Wait til you see the head on the thing she is stroking in her lap!
Research leads me to believe that at the tender age of 18, Frances didn’t understand the hidden meaning of the lyrics that she was singing. Wikipedia says that she hid for weeks after finding out what men were thinking as she sang the innocent song.
Well later in life Frances Gall got more control over her career and sang this hit song to the Blues legend Ella Fitzgerald. The video in the background leads me to think that she was paying homage to the African American strife going on in America at the time.
My French is terrible. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words.
It is true many strippers are hard headed, defensive, money hungry and looking for a fast buck. Most don’t get up before 3pm or take the time to read the newspaper. It is doubtful that they vote.
It is fair to say that many strippers hardly apply themselves to society in any other way other than being consumers.
Studies have shown that many non-stripping women stay in relationships because they can not afford to live on their own.
From my personal experience, the reverse is true among strippers- we can’t afford to be in relationships. Boyfriends are jealous or they don’t want to work. Some boyfriends attempt to live off of their stripper girlfriends.
This case scenario ‘boyfriend’ isn’t really a pimp (he doesn’t set her up with guys) he just never has any money towards the household. Now that’s a glass ceiling!
Many strippers want to lead normal lives but can’t under the stigma of their job.
It is a vicious cycle where the Entertainer/Stripper is stuck being a consumer. It becomes even more layers of consumerism if the Stripper has children to provide for.
Mika’s Showgirl School is the inexpensive, private, thought provoking way for an adult entertainer to opt out of the downward spiral program.
Let’s start by learning more about the dance that we do. More than any other trade, watching and listening to the performers that captured the limelight before us can add to our performances today.
If Mystery Mika ask 200 men who patronize strippers to name 4 classic pin up ladies and describe what made them famous- I’d bet my britches, the men who enjoy burlesque and or an occasional lap dance could easily rattle off a name and description.
On the other hand if I go to 75 beautiful Strippers, 75 Girls Gone Wild and 50 Hooter Girls (I’m willing to mix it up a bit- to even the odds)
If I ask them to name 4 famous burlesque performers or pin up girls- recent or retro- given a week- I bet they would forget about the assignment because they don’t care.
As of now most of my hits come from guys I who are searching for freaky sessions with their palms. I can tell by the keywords that led them to my blog that the hits didn’t come from my target audience.
words like licking, sucking, boobs, discipline, vagina, sex, sexy, how to,discipline, mistress, black, hairy, nude, naked, tall, Blondy, spank,big butt, pussy,drip,wet,shower
If you know a stripper, give her my url but remember the ol saying: you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make the drink.
In the past when the kid gloves came off there was nothing left but nylons and garter belts.
Betty Page captured the hearts of many in her signature black sheer pantie hose, patent leather pumps, stylish bangs. Her milk white skin was a unforgettable contrast to the way she glammed up for the camera.
Here’s a rare television interview with Betty Page. (Mystery Mika loves you, youtube.)
Betty Page wore black and never made it easy for her co stars to hog tie her.
Here’s Betty Page putting up a fight.
Should women really be pulling each others hair to entertain men?
Girl Fight!
It pretty much comes down to compensation.
If you are treated well and get paid well then it is okay.
If you are forced to do things that you don’t want to do and don’t get paid then it feels very bad.
In any business there are people trying constantly to get the upper hand.
Most people consider themselves smart when they see a profit.
I am a two bit stripper and this entry is part of my stripper blog. I shouldn’t be telling you any of this.
You know that you are getting someplace when you look around and you suddenly have a ton of haters. I’ve gotten more than a few hits from people looking to read a rant from a Diablo Cody hater.
Sorry that’s my girl! Mystery Mika has nothing but love for Diablo.
Gee wiz, Mystery Mika hasn’t even gotten a movie deal yet. Already a larger than life playa hater scene has exploded in my dressing room. It was almost a girl fight last night. My back was up against the mirror.
The competition does not like it when they can’t keep up.
The woman who was nipping at my mere existence was more than twice my size, ANGRY and intoxicated!
The only way I could possibly have won a fist fight with her is by wearing full battle gear and slapping her in a bob wire straight jacket.
‘Diana‘ no I can’t call her that because that was Wonder Woman’s name.
Mystery Mika loves Wonder Woman.
ok. let me call her, Ruby. No that’s my dog’s name- I don’t want to insult my pooch.
How does Houndstoothsound? That should will give you a good idea of how well she was able to weld her nasty charm and spit sucking grin. She had no empathy for the fact that I’d recently been to the dentist. Grown men don’t like the dentist.

Her eyes became bulging sockets. A destructive icy blue tornado swirled. (oops, that was her idea of eye shadow)
It wanted to touch down on me. Envelope me and erase me. She was desperate to keep me off of the floor. She was furious at how her regulars peeked at me when she was attempting to get their undivided attention.
The scary part is that I am not exaggerating.
Houndstooth: ‘You suck Mika. f—K you Mika and your damn cookies.’
Mika: ummmmm, sounds like you are mad because you aren’t sucking me.
(I still thought she was joking)
Houndstooth: You’re old, Mika. Your body may be thin- but your face looks old. It’s sagging. Your face is sunken and old. Other people aren’t going to tell you that- but me, I’m you’re friend. I’ll tell you!
Mika: you’re not my friend and you might as well shut up because you can’t convince me of that.
She was shouting her words through barely opened yellow teeth.
I’ve never noticed what big teeth she has.
In Houndstooth defense, she is right to feel put off by me, I’ve never respected her work character. She is loud and pushy. Somehow people always KNOW when I’m only tolerating them. It always blows up in my face.
I’ve always tried be pleasant to her until that one day about six weeks ago when I had a toothache from dental work.
NOT ME but it is equally as gruesome:
I asked her to stop jumping (and being so loud) or leave the dressing room that is really a broom closet… so that people who were actually trying to get ready for the floor could do so.
Apparently she has been mad ever since.
Even though a few days after the ‘incident’ we talked about it. She had said that I’d hurt her feelings by asking her to leave. I did apologize and I explained that I’d had dental work done that day and the motrin hadn’t kicked in yet.
We were so close in the dressing room that I was afraid she was going to step on me.
Her toe nails long and discolored with chipped red nail polish on every other toe.
Some people are impossible to reason with. I’ve always suspected that about her nature. I’ve heard her bark at customers when disappointed by her tip.
Telling her that I didn’t want her to step on me did not make her feel any better.
I might as well of said that she was a like bull in a china shop.
She became very defensive and said that she wasn’t drunk and would not have stepped on me.
She never became rational. Instead she used ever bully strategy that she could think of.
Finally I shut up and let her rage off.
Two other ladies were in the dressing room- one was close enough to her size to knock her out. But I was seated on her lap. Eating a sandwich. The other was a bit smaller but did a good job of putting a bit a distance between me and her. Just so I’d had enough time to adjust for battle.
Mentally I was stuck on the fact that my hands were so greasy that I couldn’t imagine getting a firm grip on a glass or beer bottle.
I was trying to decide what part of my body was I going to sacrifice to defend myself. My legs were under the counter. Any movement might be taken as a first move. I didn’t want to start the fight by simply freeing up my legs.
The smaller one tried to hold her back as I sat calmly on the other’s ladies lap.
The only thing we could do is not show any fear.
My girlfriend whose lap I was on said- naw let her go. You can’t hold her back. If she wants to get over here- she’s coming. Let ‘ha’ come.
and then Houndstooth said: you better get her off your lap!
My girlfriend said: naw Mika ain’t going no where.My baby gonna stay right here. If you gonna do something, come on over here and do it.
I squinted my eyes as I starred her directly in her face and made my plan in case she actually decided to make good on her threats to slam me into the window.
My girlfriend said: ain’t even no window in here! You better go on.
That’s when Houndstooth started talking about my cookies and goodie tray.
Like a fool- I said: I ain’t never liked you.
She called me every bitch she could think of.
The fact that she could not read my body language or see the whites of my eyes made her uncertain of what I might have in my boot.
Stop squinting at me like you are looking at the Sun! Was the last thing that she said. It was awful. I was so shocked that she had gone off like that. So now I guess I gotta watch out for her.
That’s the sort of out burst a girl who gets a lot of attention has to be prepared for when working in a club. I’m sure it ain’t over. Damn.
Tonight I gave a drunk girl a ride home. In the dressing room she was crying and bumping her head against the mirror.
‘My man don’t treat me right. He’s always asking me for money. I’m soooo dumb.’
I thought that maybe if I got her over to my place and gave her a little time to sober up, I could talk some sense into her.
In the end she only wanted to talk to him on the phone.
She offered me $20 dollars to drive her cell phone back over to her house- by accident she dropped it on the floor of my car as she tumbled out.
‘Can you please, Mika, just look in my phone’s contacts and give me the number under Sweetie daddy. He’s gonna be waiting for my call.I need to call him.
It’s after 2am. I gotta go to bed. Sorry, it will have to wait til morning. Get some sleep. I’ll drop your cell off in the morning.
I pushed END and tossed her phone into my purse.
Let’s see what Tina Turner has to say about surviving abuse in a relationship.
