Rhea Johnston's job involves listening to peoples inner most thoughts. There's something intimate and disarming, for many, about sitting in the hair stylist's chair. To the point that you almost don't notice anyone to the right or to the left, and sometimes you completely open up (same as getting tattooed). After a couple years of monthly sits in Rhea's salon chair, we decided to bring the 'hair-apy' session to the Blue Hotel, as Rhea's debut includes a deep dive into the wonderful world (or shit-show) of dating and dating apps. Which leads us to how to best go about it, what to ask, what to tell, how much, and how soon, deal-breakers, alignment, and more. PLUS, Rhea tells a really great story about rejection. Oh, and somehow we get into porn preferences. Because why not. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We're pleased to bring you this solid young couple, wise beyond their years, in love and life, who share how it began and how it's going. Stiletto Thunderkiss is a working performer in burlesque, and she's also working 9-5, as it were in film, alongside her partner, film-maker Brian Hamilton.

For some of us, there's simply nothing quite like the trigger of scent to put you at a time, and in a place. She didn't quite grasp the effect her summer smell had upon him. She’d shower it away and he’d miss it and implore her to come to him next, when she’d been running and sweating and ripe. Her riveting green eyes and luscious lips were beyond, but it was her scent that filled his head with thoughts that lead to acts by bodies soaked and spent, on hot summer afternoons. The new stand-alone erotic story features MF and FF scenes, written and narrated by Jeff Woods.
