A Few More Little Baby Steps

Hey, Sweet Sisters,

I continue to inch forward on my journey. My last male (Ick) haircut was October and I still haven't filled in my bald spot, so I can't yet use my own hair. I've been combing it back and moussing it heavily.

Saturday, I came out to my beautician (yes, the trusted woman who's cut my hair in a beauty salon). She didn't really understand, but she loves to help women look great and she's ready to help. :)

So, I got a real eyebrow wax done (now that she knows more what I want) and they look great.

Then, I got my first "wash and style" done. She said this can work with a "newsboy hat". Been looking for one, have a new mission. :)

Got all nice and dressed up and drove an hour to my monthly support group meeting (more on that in another post).

Sunday, I found some really cool beaded sandals and a newsboy hat that coordinated, so I had no choice but to get a new pedicure (and manicure).

The girls remembered me from last time (imagine that!). I got bright red polish on my toes and the prettiest flowers on my big toes I've ever seen. A little dot of glitter marks the center of the flower and she put 3-color detail into the design. Wow, is all I can say.

So, that's my weekend--I'm ready for Summer sandal season now.

Hugs,

Becky

Oh, Becky......

Yes, you're now ready for sandal weather....good on you!

And now you're doing all of those "little" things that before were a huge step. They're just part of your regular maintenance now.

It's the place that so many of us want to be.....just doing our thing and being seen for who we really are.

Wonderful......

HUGGS!

Becky,

Keep blazing that trail. I've been thinking i should get a pedicure soon. I need to find a friend to share the apprehension and joy of success. You though do it by yourself. I am such a wimp. :-(

Your my hero!!!

Huggs,

      Good morning All. Coffees on.

      By awkward-yet-sweet · Posted

      It never rains but it pours.  We had a dry spring, but now my garden is a swamp and my yard is a pond.  Get off the gravel road, and you'd need a hovercraft.    With nothing better to do, I'm going on a short trip with my husband tomorrow.  Since he's in management he usually doesn't do this sort of work, but whenever he does I usually go along.  And he already knows not to try staying in a hotel, because I want to sleep in the bunk in the truck.  So much more cozy.    And for a couple of days, GF can actually take care of her own kids instead of leaving them to me....

      Been a while.... Do you sing or play an instrument?

      By awkward-yet-sweet · Posted

      I have played clarinet, but without talent.  And while I *can* sing, I think listening to it would be an acquired taste.

      Do you use make-up? If so, why and what types?

      Hi Sally, okay I'll head on over to your post and check out your makeup techniques.

      Hey all,   It's been a while, but I blogged a whole series on makeup.  It's an eight-part series where I talk about my techniques.   Here is the link to Part 1:       Hopefully the blog series is helpful.

      Oh, I can relate to that one Vicky, leaving lipstick in hot weather  I've lost count how many times I had to purchase new purses.

      Thanks for the replies, as an admin from my own group I understand the same rules, agreed.

      Any links posted would have to meet this criteria  All content posted or shared through TransPulse services must be appropriate for minors. We welcome members aged 13 to 18. As such, adult or pornographic content, nudity, underwear images, violence, gore, and other content not suitable for minors may not be posted anywhere to this service.

      I do spoken word acting, and give Trans 101 talks and other public speaking.  I wear make-up for those occasions.  Sephora is easy for me to get to, and has a foundation that does a good job for me and the sales folks there are Trans Friendly.  Their eye shadow pallets are also fun to use. Another source of my foundation is Ulta which carries Dermablend that does a consistent job of my lower face and chin.   I just use good old Revlon lipsticks because I ruin them by leaving my purse in the hot car too often.

      Sort of a Lousy Introduction

      By Abigail Genevieve · Posted

      I'm not interested in makeup, jewelry or nice clothes or girly stuff.  It's made me wonder at times.   It saves some money.  If I wore a skirt it would likely  be denim.  I thought about a woman's skirt suit but nah.   Neither of my sisters are into that stuff either.  One likes peasant chic (still a 60s flower girl)  and the other - the only time she has ever worn a dress was at her wedding.  Jeans at all other times.   Jeans and t shirt here.  Content being a girl.  Weirdo. Weirda? Never mind.

      Question

      By VickySGV · Posted

      @Ladypcnj Before posting links to other group's websites, PM one of the Staff (preferably an Admin) and have them check that site out.   We have specific rules here regarding age appropriateness and would need to know that the other site is in line with those rules.  We do have members here between 13 and 18 and other sites need to be safe for that age range, legally and otherwise.  Also, we are not a dating or pick-up site, not do we allow people selling things to advertise here.  As I said clear the link with a moderator or admin before posting it.  Mod's and admins do check out posts and if we find problem links we will remove them and notify the OP of a rules violation.  Go to https://www.transgenderpulse.com/community-rules to understand where we are.

      I raise my hand in the group, I have a question and a suggestion... is it allowed to share other new lgbtq+ website links here?
