I never thought that I'd post with any 'negative' toward Shane, but I have to echo the negative now. The first visit or two were mainly positive. The massage itself was decent, but there was inconsistency in his pricing (he said something via text different than in-person), and he also 'accidentally' did a 60 minute session instead of a 90 minute session. He told me I should've told him on the spot (touche), but I was willing to overlook it all with his charm (he can be very kind).
Every subsequent visit got new price changes, but he was also more interactive and we got along great, and I came to really like him more and more, just as a person. I was seeing him regularly for about 6 months. I disappeared a bit for some responsibilities (I told him about it and we stayed in regular contact), and suddenly after one cancelled visit from his end (for a 'cold'), he started ghosting me entirely. I mean, we went from something to the effect of 'can't wait to see you' to zero. He wouldn't answer texts, wouldn't reply about rescheduling, but he answered someone that I recommended him to that same day. I sent him a message on rentmasseur asking if there's something that happened that I've misunderstood or if there's anything I did hat upset him, he read it and didn't reply. Sad things ended this way.

I’ve been able to find many a potential clients face pic without asking for one. Your number can lead to your name, your name can lead to Facebook, and there you have it. So much for being discrete! Sometimes Mr. Number will give the name of the client and the origin of the phone number then you can search for that potential client on Facebook. Sometimes you can even Google the number and get the clients info, including name and address! My doorbell camera is gonna get that picture when you show up anyways😜
Yes, understood. As I keep saying though, my issue is about requiring it more than it is just about what could be done.

I don't understand the caution here. If you send a pic, what's going to happen? If it's a G-rated pic, there are likely several of you on social media that anyone could download or screen grab. A naughty masseur having one doesn't mean anything. Do you think they can prove you sent it? If so, who would care?
If you're someone who avoids social media altogether, then I can understand it. But there are so many pictures of me on the Internet, I would say, "I guess they downloaded that from my Facebook profile," and move on...
If I'm going to a provider's home (or hotel), I generally offer to send a face pic so they know who is showing up.
I am one of those who avoids social media altogether.
It seems like most people are debating just the effect of sending a pic, but to me, the demand itself is not reasonable. It's one thing to ask for a pic, another to require it. "hey, would you be willing..." is not the same as "I require a face pic".
What if we were to reverse the demand? How many providers would be okay with the client demanding face pics of those masseurs who do not post face pics on their ads? Again, asking is not the same as requiring. I'm not okay with being required to send a pic, personally. Like I said above, if others are okay with it, all power to them, but I'm not. I care very much about discretion, and anything in my control with respect to discretion, I want to control. I do think, for me, it's a big deal to send my picture to someone I don't even know. To be required to take such a risk, is, in my view, unreasonable.

You guys are paranoid. Maybe the provider just wants to know who he is inviting into his home.
Call us paranoid if you like, but I'm not sure that not wanting to send selfies of oneself is really paranoia. What if I'm a closeted doctor fearful of being outed, what if I'm locally known, what if there's a high chance of being recognized and my private life exposed that I'm trying to keep secret? I don't think it's paranoia to not want my picture 'out there'. Many people don't want their pics even up on social media. If someone is out already or just doesn't mind anyone finding out about their sessions, all power to them. It doesn't mean that those not like that are paranoid.
I realize as @SouthOfTheBorder said, that I could be secretly being recorded. That's not in my control. The risk that is in my hands is all that I can control and nothing else. There's a gamble being taken by both the provider and the client, and both acknowledge that. Trying to think of ways to protect everyone is a smart idea, but I don't think requiring a photo does much to really provide security. If it's to identify who's at the door, then asking for a description is as secure as asking for a photo. Again, at the end of the day, both sides are accepting a certain level of risk.

I actually had a not great experience with PersianTouch. He is attractive, but did not IMO look like his photos. The massage was OK, but I felt a bit catfished. I just did therapeutic and he kept complaining about knots in my body - like dude that is why I aim here!.
I don't recommend PersianTouch either. I saw him a few times and have found him consistently cold. The first time, near the beginning of the massage he said something to the effect of 'I'll tell you when you can touch' (I hadn't done anything), so I felt timid to do anything at all. At the end of the massage he told me that it seemed like I didn't find him attractive. I told him that it was the opposite, it was more to do with the initial [stern] order. I repeated a second time, it wasn't a very noteworthy experience. Third time was about a year later and there was just really cold energy. He wasn't as buff at all as his pics, but definitely I found him still to be hot AF. He spoke a lot about how he's a professional and doens't need this (I think he's a physician by day) etc.... It was just weird.

Yeah, another thread was started here:

I'm happy you raised this issue. It's become more common and I wasn't sure if I was the only one who feels like it's a deal-breaker. I am looking for discretion when I book with someone, and the idea of someone having my picture is uncomfortable. If a person cancels an appointment because I'm ugly, I guess no problem. It's the discretion that matters mroe to me. Some masseurs who have requested it are saying that it's for their safety...so I don't know what started that trend.

This is what I wrote about him on another thread: I saw this guy recently and had a different experience. His massage was incredibly strong, which I like. And he seemed to be pretty skilled. But the rest was weird. Not friendly, an odd vibe. Apartment in an upscale building but there’s no furniture. the massage table is in the kitchen; he instructs you to put your clothes on the kitchen counter next to the sink. The walls are lined with white, poster-size paper with black Sharpie writing like a business brainstorm….or a serial killer’s plans. When it came to the ending it was also odd - I asked to suck his nipples as he jacked me off and he said no in an angry tone while forcefully pushing me away. Not a turn on.
Similar experience as well.

^This and what most other people wrote was also my experience. I communicated what I was looking for, but found him very kind (if not a little formal) by text, and then a little bit abrasive in person. I came here to read wondering if it was worth the repeat, as it's been about 1.5 years since I saw him. But it seems like the majority had a similar experience, and if I'm giong to drop that much money, I don't want to guess whether it's going to be what I'm looking for or not.

I reached out, but his rates are a little bit crazy [to me].
Spa rate (with many limitations): $250
Deli Rate: $450 or $550 (can't remember) -
I took the risk and saw MarkAnthany. The person I met is not likely the person in the picture. Their age and look are quite different. I know, someone will say that I should've left right when that happened, but for whatever reason, I didn't. The massage was a B-, sensual was alright. But I would not repeat, it's not him, and I'm not sure how he got reviews saying hte pictures are accurate... Maybe he had different ones up before, but the single pic on there isn't him.

Just a follow-up on my own post from above. I've seen him at least 3-4 times, the price was different (and increasing) each time. Reached out today, and now what was once $200 is $350. It was mentioned that most escorts charge $300/hour, and the response was that his escort rate is $500/hour. I enjoyed his company, but those numbers are outrageous.

Any recent experience with him in spa?

Anyone have experience with this gentleman?

Here's another I couldn't find any info on...curious if anyone has any experience.

Seems like there's a bunch of newcomers or unreviewed studs out in LA these days.
Anyone had experience with Nikmassage?

Any intel on this young man?

Van says his rate is $200 for a mutual nude in touch and release massage. Does he try to charge more once you’re on the table?
Also curious about this!

Ended up booking him. I think he was very nice, and I appreciated that he didn't short on time. I also don't think I'd repeat or even loosely recommend. Nothing about the massage was really noteworthy to me - not the therapeutic side (which was very light pressure), nor the sensual part, as he's very limited with what he seems to be okay with. I actually got some vibes that he might be bi/straight. It wasn't a bad experience, just not what I'd expect for $250 at all.
