Reply To: Questions About Advice & Counsel…

I don’t know where I would be without the ladies (whom I call my sisters) in various support groups. When I first started my transition, I had done a lot of research about my new look that I wanted, like the style of clothes, how to look as sleek as possible even with the extra pounds, and the types of wigs I wanted. But in that excitement, I really didn’t think about how to find a trans friendly nail salon, or how to sit like a lady. things like that. I formed a close circle of friends and we exchanged advice on everything. At first they were the ones sharing everything with me, since I knew so little, but as time went by, I also started having tips and experiences to share. This made me feel like I was really in the process of arriving! I am proud that I was the first one in our group to discover putting castor oil on the eyelids to make your lashes grow longer. LOL
