Continuing my explorations of the sensual but having benefited from others' comments and posts, I did my own version of TOFFT by buying from the top of the menu by booking the Nuru from this place.
External Link/Members OnlyPrice: The website says that Tantric is £120 for 1hr and you have to ask for the price for Nuru. I'll leave the details of both the girl and price out but happily give to anyone that sends a PM. Suffice to say it's more than the cost of Tantric.
Comms: As others have said, Spicygirls (SG) share an entrance, reception and telephone number with Siamese Thai Spa (STS). When I've tried to book with STS, it's been hit and miss and so it was for the SG booking. A text in the morning to enquire on price and availability was answered almost immediately. The follow up text to confirm a time was left unanswered and when I arrived (ten minutes early), they had no record of it.
Setting: The reception is well lit, up the first flight of stairs from Faulkner Street, Thai music in the background and certainly warmer than outside. Having asked about availability, they chatted amongst themselves and asked me to take a seat whilst they got things ready. Chair was comfy and I felt relaxed while I waited and at least four other girls amused themselves waiting.
After a brief wait, I was led from STS and upstairs to SG and into a room with a double sized massage table that had been set up with paper towel and a cotton towel covered head pillow. The lighting was still full but the music was calming and again, it was certainly warm enough. There's a prominent digital clock on the wall that's hard for the massagee to see but easy for the masseuse to see throughout so don't expect timing overruns. There was a good sized wash room next door that was also clean and the shower unit itself although big enough for two (more later), with a good range of products, obviously wasn't unblocked very regularly as the shower, whilst powerful and hot, ran faster than could drain away so I got a foot bath as well.
When things got under way, the lighting was turned down a little.
Girl: I was introduced to my masseuse, let's call her "Spicy", who was short, slim, compact and mischievous with short dark hair and a few distinguishing features so as with the price, I'll respond to PM for anyone that wants more details or her name. She's been in the UK over ten years but only on the massage scene for less than half that. Her English is good, not faultless, and having learned most of it from soaps, it's cute when the Thai accent drops and Manc drops in, particularly when she says "bum".
She started in a loose cotton shorts and shirt set but when she returned whilst I was in the shower, she was only wearing a robe. She asked me if I had booked a Nuru before and when I said no, she said that she would be naked and was that alright. As soon as I croaked yes, the robe was gone. She's obviously confident in her looks and rightly so.
Service: Now I'll start by saying that this was first foray into Nuru from a parlour but I have seen and read much and dabbled with previous girlfriends having bought the Nuru gel online, so I thought I knew what to expect.
I was wrong, or what they offer isn't a Nuru massage. I'm inclined to think the latter;
1. I have always understood that both parties should be slightly damp prior to the massage so a bath or shower is recommended. Alarm bells should have rung when "Spicy" was surprised when I asked if I could shower before we started. I was prepared to shower alone but disappointed that I seemed to know more about Nuru than my masseuse. Bearing in mind the size of the shower cubicle, they're missing a trick in not having an assisted shower before and/or after.
2. They don't use a Nuru gel, despite what the website says. This was an oil massage and LOTS of it, despite the fact that my skin seemed to act like a sponge and just soak it up. Again, alarm bells should have rung. I thought that she said that she needed to start with oil, which I accepted and expected to have Nuru later. This didn't happen and it was oil all the way, and all over.
3. Once the robe was dispensed with, "Spicy" climbed up and started oiling, where I expected gel and to have her slipping and sliding up and down. Again, wrong. She used a lot of oil but the body rubs were more at right angles, than up and down. She moved around a lot and from time to time, I had her breasts rubbing my neck and ears (novel) and could feel her trimmed bush rubbing over my buttocks, this was not the slip and slide I was expecting.
All in all, I would say that this was more akin to the best sort of B2B, rather than Nuru. I spent most of just over the first half hour on my front with "Spicy" sliding her hands, legs, pubis and breasts over my back, buttocks and back of my neck.
Don't get me wrong, I have no qualms about the sensual nature of what I received. As an oil B2B, it was wonderful. Only five minutes in and she said I could touch her if I wanted, which I took small advantage of. She said I could touch "all but not pussy" and she felt sublime to the touch. I probably had more accidental CC than she did whilst doing so.
"Spicy" was chatty but not in an irritating way and I felt that I got to know a little about her and her about me in a natural way. She said that having done this for a few years, she thought she knew what men liked and was open about that when I enquired further.
There was a negotiation about how the massage would end, during which she said that the last ten minutes is for a shower, and it wasn't long after I turned onto my back that she focussed her efforts on waking the little soldier up. Again, she uses a LOT of oil. As I started to enjoy this, I asked if she could sit on my stomach so that I could stroke her bum and breasts. As was the manner of my time with her, she obliged readily and with some cheeky banter.
VFM: Not really. From the first time that I looked at the clock after "Spicy" left me to get undressed to when I was fully dressed and ready to leave after my second shower, it wasn't even a full hour. As good as it was, you can get the same for less elsewhere or spend the same and get more!!
Summary: I enjoyed my visit and left with a smile on my face, albeit the spring in my step could have been from the dent in my wallet. "Spicy" was fun and I would see her again for a normal massage downstairs in STS and negotiate extras if I was in the mood.
