I've been to a lot of these places since moving back to the West Midlands late last year. I haven't done any serious punting in Brum and only been to a few long standing massage places in the centre years and years ago - was surprised to find so many Chinese massage shops even in places like Shirley.
Best first -
External Link/Members OnlyWent here last Sunday, by far the youngest and best looking girl I've seen, actually cute in looks and mannerisms. Told me she was 26 but like a lot of younger Asian girls looks younger than her age. Petite too and nice figure. I only did the massage which was £40 + £20 HE. Good massage too.
Worst -
External Link/Members OnlyWent here just before New Years Day, older lady, excellent English and friendly. OK massage but awful HE, way too rough, tried to pull it off, had to keep telling her to go easy, will not return. Usual pricing.
Below Average -
External Link/Members OnlyAverage, chubby girl, good English. Average massage then the HE were she continually tried to upsell B2B which based on her looks I didn't want.
I have also been to the Shirley Massage place by the Plume of Feathers Pub and Aquarelax at the top end of Shirley 3/4 times each. I've noticed the girls change at the first one frequently but always seem to give a half decent massage plus usual HE. At Aquarelax I've seen the same lady a few times, pity the lady on the desk in the shop hasn't been available or done the honours as she's quite attractive.
The first time I went I wasn't even sure the place by the Plume was going to offer extras which seems naïve now but a rub and tug parlour in leafy Solihull I wouldn't have imagined years ago. I went there on Friday night and an older woman gave me 5 mins massage on the back before she wiped my arse crack with a wet wipe. I was questioning my hygiene momentarily but it was a prelude to a lot of starfish rubbing leading to a prostate massage. Might surprise a few punters but I quite liked it.
Finally also tried the place on the Robin Hood island just on the Hall Green/Shirley border. Older woman, little English, average massage but usual HE.
