Product Description
Strippers are the experts when it comes to getting naked—especially when the topic is looking your best while wearing the least. Authors Jennifer Axen and Leigh Phillips are "regular" women who interviewed hundreds of strippers to uncover the real-life beauty secrets of baring it all. Their mission: to deliver these sexy trade secrets to women all over the world! The Stripper's Guide to Looking Great Naked reveals how to walk, stand, and move with allure, and incorporate confidence and sex appeal into everyday life—whether crossing the room during the day or slipping out of your clothes for that special someone at night. Here are quick, incredibly useful backstage tips for covering body blemishes, dealing with naked "emergencies," and showcasing any body shape's best features. This daring and fun illustrated guide reveals how any woman can use these racy but simple strategies to feel more confident, no matter what her state of undress, from the beach to the bedroom. In the age of celebrity burlesque, pole-dancing on Oprah, and striptease classes and workouts, The Stripper's Guide to Looking Great Naked finally puts the spotlight where it should be: when it comes to baring it all, it's what you know and how you work it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Packed with fabulous tips, June 3, 2005
This is one book no woman who's gonna get naked or who loves being naked and showing off should be without! It's chock-full of tips that really work. I don't think the authors left anything out and I especially liked how they handled taming the "lower 40." The illustrations by Barbara McGregor are so sexy and cute. I recommend this book to all women who want to know how strippers look so damn good and how to look good themselves when they peel it off. Believe me, you'll use these tips for a lifetime! This book is well-written and worth a lot more than the price.

4.0 out of 5 stars Looking Good and Feeling Good About Yourself, the Stripper Way, December 2, 2005
By Kevin Killian (San Francisco, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
How many people, male or female, really feel good when we're naked? The authors of this little handbook advise us to "Flaunt It"! After all, we've all got the same hangups about vulnerability, aging, shame, lack of self-esteem. This book has a lot of tips, many of them from actual strippers, about how to put your best foot forward from a nude perspective. I liked the chapter about what to do when you have to shed your clothes and uh, oh, you just remembered last night you got a hickey. How to hide it? There's a great chapter about strip poker, with lots of advice about what to take off first.

The women who wrote this book are regular Joes who go to the experts when things get rough. For example, say you're one of those unfortunates who have what they call "buttthigh syndrome," that's what happens when onlookers can find "no real distinction between your ass and yout thighs," then what you do is to apply bronzer underneath each cheek to give the illusion of some 3-D depth.

There's also a lot of material about how to shave your pubic area. But most of all, what Jennifer and Leigh want to give you is confidence. Not all of us have great bodies, but most of us could learn something in the presentation department. The authors go over such common life-changing situations as going camping and suddenly you're forced to skinny dip otherwise you'll seem like a wet blanket. What to do? How to do it? You'll never believe the kinds of things they say.

I also enjoyed finding out about the top five fantasy costumes worn by women who are trying to seduce some strangers. Nurse, schoolgirl, cheerleader, French maid, and "country girl." And don't forget, "candlelight is the sexiest form of lighting and luckily for us, the easiest, the cheapest, and the most readily available." How true! -- Except for the last part, I actually think more people have electricity than candles.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tips for Any girl on being a Stripper, October 15, 2005
This book was fantastic! It gives tips for every body shape, personal style, and level of nakedness you want to get. Lots of simple tips to help perk up your everyday routine. Quick read that is well worth the $16.00. The tips alone were worth that much. A must have for anyone who wants to be SEXY!
