Sugaring in 2018
Listen, babes, sugaring has moved on! As technology, media and laws change, so does the industry to the point where half of the advice we were reading in 2017 is now obsolete! There is a reason why the bowl has been dry and salty recently… all of the Sugar Daddies have left it.
First of all…
Get the hell off of Seeking Arrangement, What’s Your Price and Miss Travel. Not only will nothing good come from them, they are dangerous. In the US, Seeking Arrangement has been subject to several VICE stings and SBs are being arrested for solicitation and prostitution.
Now, let’s talk about how the demand for Sugar Babies has changed. SDs have always used us as arm candy, as accessories to show off with. All they used to need was someone young and beautiful to tick this box - and now? The market has been flooded. There’s a different breed of Sugar Baby that is getting work, and she doesn’t use Tumblr or any of those trash websites. Bye bye, Brandon Wade.
I’m about to let you in on one of the best kept whore secrets of the year:
Instagram.
Instagram girls are the new super models that these SDs originally looked for. It sounds unreliable, but bare with me. There are companies and assistant services who actively scour Instagram for girls to be companions to filthy rich men. Luxury concierges will recruit beautiful girls from modelling agencies and from Instagram to attend yacht parties or clubs with their clients. Surely you have seen those accounts of model like girls who always seem to be on luxury holidays with no clear source of income? Well, secret’s out.
So how do you become one of these girls?
It all depends on how much work you’re willing to put in. At a bare minimum, you need to start working on your Instagram account. Your pictures need to be flawlessly edited, professional or professional looking, and depict a mix of yourself and some “luxury lifestyle” pics (these are easy to fake, with some artfully arranged home cooked food and good lighting). You need to show your face and full body, even if you use a fake name. Stick the word “model” in your bio and you’re good to go. Followers aren’t a huge issue - you can still get clients without many - but to boost your chances you might want to buy a few thousand and some likes, too. Drop your Insta in the replies and you can help each other out by following each other.
The real secret is this: the elite have a very strict circuit of destinations and events that they seek companionship for. You need to target those destinations.
Obviously, a great way to do this is to hop on a flight - but we can’t all do that. So how do we get around it? Tag yourself in those destinations and wait to be spotted. Keep your private messages open!
The high point in this industry is summer, so here’s a little cheat guide to some good destinations and times:
The Hamptons, all summer
Saint Tropez, all summer
Dubai, all summer
April - Coachella
May - Cannes, France, during the film festival
May - Monaco, France, during the Grand Prix
July - London, England, specifically for Wimbledon
September - Venice, Italy, during the film festival
So what do these concierges offer when they spot you? Luxury travel, all expense paid trips and thousands a night. Now a warning to some of the more naive babies… this is still sex work. You need to take your security and sexual health seriously, and while they are not all intimate bookings it is less likely that clients (or realistically their assistants) will specify if they are or not. This is not for the faint-hearted or the shy babes amongst us… you might be playing golf with a sheikh one night and find yourself at an orgy on a super-yacht the next. There will be drugs that you may feel pressured into taking. But be prepared and be careful, and this could be the most lucrative hustle of your life! How else can I find a sugar daddy? Not all of us have the look (read: we’re not all skinny model types) or the nerve to be an Instagram party girl. It sucks, but it’s not the end of the world. There are still two big avenues open to us: Escorting/stripping first- I know dozens of girls who have turned regulars into SDs. These men are already comfortable with paying for transactional sex, so are way more likely to make the jump to SD, and there’s none of that “freebie” bullshit to begin with. Plus, you have a steady income to live on until that happens! I know I don’t shut up about it, but switching to escorting was the smartest thing I ever did. Tip - be careful with stripping as so many clubs have rules about meeting customers outside the club. Freestyling - Always faithful, always has its downsides. If you’re comfortable becoming a spoiled girlfriend more than a sugar baby, this is your way to go. I won’t write a guide on this - hundreds exist - but I will say that Tinder is also freestyling because it sets you up for a traditional dating sitch. As always, my inbox is open for advice! xo Arianne
