House rules
Simple, grown-up, non-negotiable.
- 21 and over. No exceptions, no "almost".
- This is not a business. Velvet Hours is a private thing among friends and friends-of-friends. Nobody pays money. Every session is traded for a massage in return, at a later date, as the menu says.
- Consent, out loud, every time. Nothing on the extras list is assumed by booking it. Everything is talked through in person first, a safeword is agreed before anything starts, and one word stops everything, instantly, no questions.
- Sober enough to consent. A drink in the hot tub is lovely. Showing up wasted means we soak, talk, and reschedule.
- Shower first. Warm towels do a lot, soap does more.
- Phones off, faces private. No photos of anyone without an enthusiastic yes. Reviews on the site are silhouettes for a reason.
- Say what you want. Pressure, no-go zones, music, temperature. The notes box exists for exactly this.
- Health first. Tell your masseur about injuries, skin conditions, allergies (oils, nuts, latex) and anything a doctor would want to know. Not a medical service; no claims are made.
- Cancel like an adult. Plans change. Reply CANCEL to the text or use your booking link. No-showing twice closes the door.
- Settle your tab. You owe exactly what the menu said. Massages, not money. Pay up within a month or get gently heckled.
