Loners unite lol
April, I don't think showing the face pic will really bring about a drastic change in your business. before i started doing it, i still got alot of responses. also, showing your face may have a negative effect of as annie has already stated, biting you in the ass.

That is true Vix... still on the fence. I do get a lot of "pleasantly surprised" looks when I open the door and I love it!

I had a session with a MILF provider who turned out to be a former classmate, and another provider I'd contacted but never managed an appt with became my customer at the business where I worked at the time. One retired provider became a friend (we had another hobby in common) and there are two other current providers that I have "civilian business" pending with. You have to be careful about who you're going to trust, but when you get that right, all it takes is respect and agreement on a story as to how you met.

April I think you are doing great already...so I would suggest not showing face pics
You have alot more to lose than some of the providers on here...all it takes is one person to recognize you

its a small world, thats definitely true... i was walking my daughter in her stroller through my condos and ran into a client (almost literally) that was getting out of his car. I see him all the time at the pool with his kids and at the park, but we have never spoken outside of the hobby. just a neighborly grin...

April, as curious as I've been about what you look like, I agree w/Dallas and La Vixian. I don't think it's worth the risk. Besides, based on your reviews, you seem to be doing pretty well w/o showing your face.

I have only ran into one local client, but it was in Memphis airport of all places. We kept making eye contact as if we recognized each other and once we boarded the plane it all made sense lol. He struck up a conversation since we were both flying to New Orleans, and all I kept thinking was, "Hmm did I do this guy" lol.
Sure enough he was a client from Baton Rouge that I saw a few times when I first started...aspd poster.
Other than that without a face or another identifying mark on my body, there is no proof I was ever in this business. It's a little hard to lie about dozens of escort ads when you are not hiding anything. Even if you could pull off that whole, "I am not the one who shows up" bit, it's a little delusional that anyone would buy that when you can be recognized lol.
I can't imagine having some nobody put my eros ad up at my child's school with my face right there lol. Without a face you can post all you want...no proof!
It's best not to have a sign on your forehead if you ever want to do something other than this that is. I would never put my child in that position of having to see mommy like that. I adore my parents and I was not brought up to disrespect them. I don't care if they lived in Aruba...last time I checked the internet was worldwide lol.
I know thousands of providers(high end ones at that), who have never shown anything on the net that would give them away, and their rates just keep on rising. Do what makes you comfortable, and preserves the things that matter to you. Trust me...a few extra dollars is not worth what you have worked so hard for in your real life.

Lips are a great way to give them a taste I think. I do it often.
I recently ran into a past client while I was working in my real world job....you will NEVER guess where. One hint: Him (with his head down looking at a file): "Is counsel ready to move forward on the motions filed?" Me: Yes, your honor. Him (head still down): Very good, Ms....(and then looks up to find me standing at the podium) "Wow, umm... (awkward silence), let's proceed then."(followed by LOTS of throat clearing and trying not to look at "the girls" under my suit jacket). Baaaaah! Talk about frightening. THEN he calls me that evening and said it was nice to see me, could we schedule a lunch meeting tomorrow? LMAO. Of course. Meet you in the parking garage? Hee hee.
