I recently ran a test, on how the lenth of a wig determined how well a girl blended. I bought a darling short wig, from Breast Form Store. To my surprrise, the shorter wigi blended in better than the longer wigs. Now, I’m not talking about “your grandmothers’s wig”– but a very new more modern or even “edgy” cut .
If you have any long wigs you no longer wear, take it to your hair stylist and tell her you will not hold her responsible if it doesn’t work out (hair stylist will not cut a wig if you didn’t buy it from them) however iby telling her it is an old wig that you no longer like, and release her of af all finacial responsibility- many will take these longer wigs and cut them into updated, fun short wig.s Take in a few photos of short styles of women, so she understands what you want. I did this re4cently, and I am familar with my hair stylist, which helps, and she cut the long wig, on my head–to match the photo. And, I love it–no one even knows who I am. So, find a stylist,– tip her well always–if she takes care of you, and as you develope a relationship with her– ask her to cut your older, long wigs, with no liability. I was going to toss my anyway, so I only had a little cash to lose, but gained a wig that is real human hair-which looks so fun and even sporty to wear out during the day.
For TG women it is essential to devekope good relationships with your hair stylist (who knows your tg) and a makeuip artist at a store, and someone in the wardrobe dept. Tip them well, or take in a little gift. I tip my hair dresser–she is more important than my mailman or doctor!

How To Lose Weight

in Weight Lose, Wigs And Partial Wigs For TG Women
Most women and clients, ask me how I keep my weight down(have stayed a size 10)–and have stayed thin for my entire life. I must admit….I learned how to keep thin from the orginal weight pros…. models. Especially, ‘Run-Way” Models,they are required to be even thinner than Photo Models. Since “Run Way” ( Now you better understand why I love feminine movement) was my love and..I stayed thin to fit into the size required, and maintained it. Herewith what I learned, from an older model…at my first Neiman Marcus show. She explained to me– it was not what I was eating but what I was “thinking” about while eating. Or, better yet…what I’m thinking about the food, as I’m eating. Often, over weight people eat while driving, watching telvision, etc. and they are out of their body with racing thoughts. However, if you ONLY think of each bite, taste it, tell your body it will digest and make you healthy and thin–you will naturally stop eating when you’re stomach is full. Perhaps, that is why…we have been told to “bless our food” ?
Today there is a new approach, using the same technique. It is called The Aware Eating Method, and there are websites, books and even coaches…for this. If any of you are interested, I can blog additional information on the process and tecnique used to turn off all racing thoughts, while eating. This method is also used for smoking. Bottom line, turn off your thoughts, and only be with…your food. Yes, select a meal which is healthy and low on sugar and carbs…but chew your food, slowly swallow your food, and only think about your food. Don’t think about angry thoughts, or fearful thoughts. Herewith one example I can share with you from my experience. I was recently very resentful–and angry with an investment broker who had lied and bascially taken money from a loved one. My angry thoughts were spinning. I opened the freezer and pulled out a quart of Bryers Vanilla Ice Cream. Normally, I would scoop out a cup and put the Ice Cream back in the freezer and just simply use my conscious eating to enjoy this sinful delight. However, on this occasion…I don’t even remember walking into the kitchen…my mind was like a buzz saw. I finished eating the entire quart. Here is the kicker. I don’t remember eating the Ice Cream!!! I didn’t enjoy it, I just stuffed my feelings. When I realized what I had done, I knew it was important to not feel shame, guilt and beat myself up…as our Ego loves that. I “looked at” what I had done, I observed the behavior…almost like a third party. Simply put, I was un-conscious and out of my body (anger and fear) while eating as Ego thoughts (Ego is always fear, resentment, shame, guilt, anger…all the bad emotions) took control of my body. Next time, you eat…prepare a healthy meal and “be with” each bite. Aware Eating Method, works…whatever name you want to put on it. Give it a try, and if you would like additional information, do email me!
Have a great meal!

How To Add, Long "Partial Hair Extentions" To Thin Hair

Hi from Denae! Okay, thin hair. Many TG women, have thinner hair from T than genetic women. I have been talking, talking, about the importance of adding partials to your hair….while in feminine presentation. However, this is even more important for full time girls. This is exactly how models and stars have full, thick hair! Most of you think, extentions are…one piece of hair added at a time…and that is possible. Better, ask your stylist or wig salon to help you with a color that most matches you hair…of longer 2-3 inch strands of hair.
See the below quick video, which demonstrates for you, how to put these partials in your own hair. Most important? Establish your hair color and don’t change it. All your partials, will need to match your hair color or colered hair.
Watch below link!
I love this web show and I think you will too

New Partials Are Being Used By All Women, Ideal For TG Women Who Have Thinner Hair

Often, when I work with a serious full time client, one of the most important areas to work on…is their wig, hair. Many intend on a full transition, wearing a $90.00 synthetic wig, which they have worn for several years. However, with a full time transition it is very important to budget and save for this one important investment. Why spend thousands on facial surgery, to wear a rayon wig that screams WIG! This is the one accessory you will wear every time you walk out the door. Lets realize (even on a genetic woman) most can tell if she is wearing a bad wig. They are too thick, to curly, and they shine (since they are made of rayon which is the same texture as carpet).
If you prefer human hair wig, I send my clients to a quality wig “salon” not wig “shop” in San Francisco–Hanson Fontana. I have Hanson Fontana, prepare several colors of wigs, so you try on each color against your skin and eye tone. Each colored wig will not be cut…as they custom cut the style and shape on your head! When I am selecting a wig color for a client, I begin with adding in a thin layer of dark roots, next adding the lowest (darkest) color for your base color (your low light), which is close to the color of your eyebrows and lashes. The third color is highlights in ash, golden, or reddish blonde. These custom colored wigs look beautiful and natural. No one has one color of hair, so why would a wig?
Hanson Fontana uses Cyberhair, and the next blog, better explains why they use this type of hair in their wigs (and partials). If you’re coming to San Francisco to work with me on a private consultation, we can include a trip to Hanson Fontana.
Hair that moves in the wind, bounces when you walk!
I have so much to share with serious TG women, on other ideas on wigs–such as partials.
We are putting partial wigs, very light with NO cap on any bald or thin area, then growing out your sides and back and blending them together. This looks so natural, so light. Most stars (female) wear them all the time. It takes having a good salon, which will make one by hand, for your head, adding hair …in locations you do not have hair, and being sure…the color matches. You will have to decide on the color you want your hair, once we select the color to make your partial. Realize, most women have more hair than men. If you’re full time, don’t go with your own male hair, but have a partial made, and have a full head of hair. Partials simply lay on top with tape, no cap. Take on, take off. Easy and I have one I wear, when I want “big” hair!
