Darkside Let it Rain... With her earliest experiences starting as a lifestyle Domme, Mistress Dahlia Rain has a very mindful and unique style of domination. Not just a ‘show-up-and-beat-you kind’ of dominant, Mistress Dahlia likes to bond with her subjects, as we discover... I was born in suburban South (New) Jersey and always had aspirations of being a singer, dancer or performer of some kind. I was in musical theater and always loved being the center of attention. As I grew up, I moved away from performance and wanted to do something that made a difference in the world (like working with non-profits). How did you get into becoming a dominatrix? I had been in the BDSM community as a lifestyle player for years when I was approached by company interested in having me provide door to door foot fetish services to clients. It was my first job in the adult industry having coming from working as an editor of an international magazine. I loved my new job as a fetish girl; it was kinky and fun. The company also provided light BDSM play, but I wanted to do more. I wanted to be able to do heavy play- kick men in the balls, beat them and shove big things in their asses, you know? I decided to go independent and built my own dungeon in my house. I had found my calling combining my love of psychology, BDSM and making lots of money. What is it that makes you different from other dominatrix? All of us have out own unique style, but I think what really makes me stand apart is how much I enjoy 24/7 lifestyle service. Not all Pro Dommes have time for 24/7 slaves, but I absolutely love it. It’s one of my favorite aspects of this life. I consider myself a lifestyle Domme first, and a Pro Domme second.
