I finally summoned the courage to get a real live professional to work on my hair, or should I say, she got the courage!
The appointment is not until June 26th, time enough to have my hair colored again. Which it needs. The stylist donates 20 percent of what ever I pay to one of the transgender charities here in Cincinnati and even has a transgender child herself. My goal is to look my best for one or both of the Fourth of July parties we have been invited to.
Years ago, I used to go to a stylist when I first went full time and absolutely loved the overall "estrogen" laden experience of being in a cis women's hair salon. Due to moving and financial considerations, I have not made it back.
My new stylist is here in Cincinnati and I should be able to set up regular six week appointments with her.
Maybe she can tame down this wild mane of hair. I think I have transitioned past the point of seeing how well (and long) can it grow, to trying to look better. I want to experiment with bangs and get my hair in the back evened out.
Should be a fun and interesting time!
I think you could probably get your hair cut into a violet Afro. A Marge Simpson style seems possible, as well, but you'd have to switch to blue. :-)
ReplyDeleteReally, though, highlights in the coloring help to make any style pop - especially for us "older" gals.
I like the "violet" Afro! :)
