Before, during and after session, I will of course go to extra measures to clean with the appropriate products such as alcohol (70%), which kills most viruses inc. influenza type viruses such as COVID-19. Other cleaning products such as Clinell wipes are used as appropriate on various equipment and surfaces. I am no longer wearing gloves or mask unless appropriate. If you wish me to wear either of these, do request it when corresponding with Me.

For those of you who do not know how to approach Me, here are some hints and tips. 1. Address Me by My title. Start the email with: Dear Empress Akari or Hello Empress etc. 2. State who you are. 3. State what you would like, for example, 'I would like to book a session with you, my kinks are X' and how long you would like the session for. 4. Politely end the email with your name. What I do not appreciate are: - Bad grammar and spelling. - No effort made in your initial or any subsequent emails. - Extremely long emails which describe every inch of your fantasy. To clarify, if you are unsure of what to put into your first email, refer to My contact page (javascript:void(0))and contact via that. Discussions about your fantasy are thoroughly discussed before any session. Any emails referring to your feedback may in fact be as long as you need to put across your thoughts and feelings from the session. - Putting kisses on the emails or referring to Me as 'babe'.

If you are rude, suffice to say you will be ignored. There is a difference between rudeness and ignorance. If your rudeness is solely sheer ignorance, I will explain once to you why that is the case and expect you not to make that same mistake again. I do not suffer fools gladly.

If you are looking to contact Me via email, DM or text, keep in mind the 'email etiquette'. If however you are wondering how to approach Me when we meet or via phone, here is some information to help you prepare. Do's - Introduce yourself. - Be polite. - Explain your kinks. - Explain what you do not enjoy. - Tell Me about a fantasy that you have that has brought you to Me. - Answer my questions thoroughly. Don't - Refer to Me in any other way other than 'Empress', or 'Empress Akari'. - Top from the bottom.

Are you one of those people who have already been through the motions of booking a session, then getting so anxious and nervous that you end up not turning up? It is a real irk for Domme's to have their time wasted, deposit paid or not. For Myself, above all else, it is disrespectful. Disrespectful of the time, effort and energy that I have put in. There are however ways to avoid this! Communication is key. Something to duly note, is that I appreciate honesty, reliability, respect and communication above all else. If you are feeling too nervous to come, email Me. I will take the time to help you.

As previously mentioned, communication is key. If you feel as though you may have 'blown your chance with Me', communicate to Me about it. I will be more understanding if you have the guts to engage in this kind of dialogue with Me.
