How to Choose a KTV Hostess

You finally made it to a Singapore KTV, and you will definitely be thinking when you see the line-up: who should I choose? Honestly, we've made some questionable choices the first time I went to one, and looking back I sometimes regret them. But you don’t have to go through that. Let’s turn you into a pro today.

Don’t be embarrassed to look at the girls

The first time you see 10-15 waiting for you, you’ll feel pressured. Don’t be. Take your time to look at all of their faces. Which ones are your type? Which ones are smiling at you? That’s usually a good sign that they like you. We’ve gotten some of the best experiences by letting the girl “choose” us instead of us choosing them.

What are they dressed in?

Hostesses can wear anything they like.They can range from t-shirts and jeans to skimpy dresses. The less they’re wearing, the better. That gives you access to the fun parts. If you want some fun, look for those who are dressed as little as possible.

There are no hard and fast rules though, if someone else strikes your fancy, go ahead and pick them. They might be a good surprise.

Ask the mummy/papa, or wait for new girls

If all else fails and you cannot make a decision, you can either ask the mummy/papa for your preference. Does she speak english? Chinese? Is she fun? Who can be brought out after the KTV session? All these questions can be answered by them. Otherwise, you can opt to wait for new girls as the managers will try their best to make sure you are seated with one within the first hour.

Choosing additional girls, replacing them

You can also choose more than 1 girl, or as many as your wallet allows, in 1 session. Just ask your manager to bring more for you and pick them. Just keep in mind that if you have more than 1, you probably won’t see them come in together. That results in longer times sitting alone in some circumstances.

If it isn’t working out with a certain girl and there’s no chemistry, you can request to cancel her for a fraction of the tip. Usually $30-$50. You can discuss this with the mummy so there’s no awkwardness. Don’t worry about them, they have many more rooms to go to.

With this knowledge, you are now a pro at the KTV. Khong say khong ve!
