Article: Working for a reputable escort agency gives you a much stronger sense of safety and security than working on your own. Look online, talk to other escorts, or contact your local sex worker advocacy group for agency recommendations. Visit several different agencies and ask any questions you may have before you sign up so that you find one that suits you.  Although the agency will take a portion of your income, the advantages of being safe, having your bookings handled, and having your clients screened first all outweigh the cost. A reputable agency will respect your limits and boundaries, provide a safe and hygienic working environment, and will be willing to answer any questions you may have. Reputable agencies will also provide security at the establishment. If possible, it can also help to talk to an escort who works there to get another perspective. Having a unique name helps to advertise your services effectively and to protect your true identity. Before you settle on a name, check online first that there are no other local escorts using the same name to avoid any confusion and miscommunication. Use the same name throughout all of your advertising platforms to maintain consistency.  You will often be allowed to use a fake name for sexual health procedures so that you can stay anonymous. This helps to further protect your identity and to maintain your privacy. Some first names for escorts are quite common, so it's a good idea to have a last name too so that your clients can recognize you. Escorts often do all of their own marketing and advertising. Use a search engine to find the escort websites that are prominent in your region or country. Sign up to the websites and then write up a short statement about yourself that's warm and approachable. Try to advertise with multiple escorting websites to increase your marketing reach.  Some websites may require a physical description of yourself with different body measurements such as clothing size. Whether or not your profile can include the services that you offer depends on the laws in your region. The photos that you use play a huge role in your advertising. Look for professional photography services online or ask for recommendations from other escorts. Then contact the photographer and arrange for a session. Before your session, decide whether you are comfortable showing your face in your photos or not.  Your agency may be able to provide you with professional photos. It's recommended that you get your photos taken by a professional, as they know what lighting, angles, and photography styles to use to portray the image that you want.

Depending on the length of your hair, it may take several hours or more to dry completely. You should keep the wrap in place for at least 20 minutes to 1 hour after it is dry. As the hair cools, it will become smoother. You can keep it covered with a silk scarf until you are ready to style it. It is important to only use a silk scarf as this will prevent the hair from pulling or snagging during sleep.

Stretching the calves then will help prepare your Achilles tendon for weight bearing throughout the day. Try doing the stretches right when you get up out of bed, as the achilles tendon has likely been contracted all night and will need some care when being extended once again. Stand up and put your hands against a wall. Move one foot in front of the other so that they are about hip distance apart. Place your front foot close to, but not touching, the wall. Bend your front knee slightly while keeping your back leg straight. This should stretch the calf of the straight leg effectively. Be sure to repeat this stretch with your legs in the opposite position so both calves get stretched. Stand up and put your hands against a wall. Put one foot in front of the other, about hip distance apart. The toes of your front foot should be close to the wall but not touching it. Then bend both knees, moving your whole body into a slight crouching position. Your back should be close to straight while you do this stretch.  Hold this stretch for a few seconds and then release it. Repeat the stretch with the other foot forward. Stand up and put one of your feet on a step that is a few inches tall. Position the ball of your foot on the edge of the stair so that your heel is hanging off the step. Bend your foot at the ankle so that the Achilles is stretched out and the heel is lowered slightly.  If you don't have a step you can use, you can put your toes up on a wall and lean towards is slightly, stretching out the calf and the Achilles. Don't lock your knee while doing this stretch. Keep it just slightly flexed, so that you don't overextend your knee.
