ONLINE CONSULTATION: FACE - MAKEUP & WIG/HAIR
"Hi Ann, Thank you very much for your
detailed comments. They are worth quite a bit to me.
My eyes and eyebrows in particular are my least feminine
feature. I will give it my best attempt to implement each of your 7 tips.
If I do it enough I am sure I will eventually get it
right. Please continue to help me of these points.
Not only do you have expertise in these matters, I seldom
go out among the folks knowledgeable enough to help me,
other than when I go to the TV/TG conventions. I'll send
pictuyres of my attempts to improve.I'll stay in touch.
I am very honored to have your interest in this.
A truly attractive, feminine face is the one thing I
really want to emulate. Much love," Toni (6/4/2008)
Over the years we have enjoyed so many successful
Gender Image Salons with positive feedback on our makeup
section, that we decided to launch an online consultation
designed to improve your facial image by increasing your
knowledge of makeup principles and techniques, as well as
basic hair and wig styling tips, and
practice ideas you can implement.
Once you are enrolled we will send a personal email
welcome. We then ask you to send us by email,
up to 10 photos (closeup of face please, some with hair
(or wig) naturally styled as you wear it and some with it
pulled back from your face) representing
your best efforts to present a suitable image. We ask
for two images (front and side view) before application of
makeup, and eight images (four front and four side views)
after application of makeup.
Our professional image and makeup consultant will review
your photographs as well as Ann, then send a 1-2 page
e-analysis of your efforts,
including our comments on your use of foundation, eye,
blush, and lip color, contouring, blending, wig or hair color
and general style tips, and other.
We will also suggest some key face and hair products and where you might
purchase them (we don't sell any products), that we believe
might be useful to add to your makeup kit. Finally, we will
suggest some key practice sessions that also might assist.
We then ask you to implement our suggestions, and send us
an additional set of 8 images (four front, four side) so
that we can analyze your progress and give you additional
feedback by email.
You may choose to send us two different styles of makeup
if you like, for example, a day makeup, and an evening or
more glamorous makeup.
Don't forget our other CD-ROM presentations regarding
fashion choices, and ways you can work on more subtle
clues that might give you away when en femme in public. Simply click on the Book
category to the left and survey our Gender Resources.
