There is no fun and no point in dressing in drab at Southern Comfort Conference.....for obvious reasons. Otherwise, why have the event?
I'm a two time veteran of SCC. I did a road trip from New Jersey almost three years ago with a dear friend that has since transitioned. And last year I flew on a plane to Atlanta & back dressed as female wearing a dress.

I see Southern Comfort as a big opportunity to meet and make friends. You can be a crossdresser that only gets to dress up twice a year, or you can be a post-op transsexual. It is one of the best and most fun events I've ever been to.

A little about me. I just started laser hair removal right before my SCC #1,and still had very thick beard hair. And, Yes, shaving every day was a bit irritating for me back then.
On SCC#2 with copious amounts of laser and electrolysis, it was not much of an issue.

I do recommend, for those that have thick beards and hair, and are shaving........please buy and liberally use Tend Skin with a cotton ball. It will calm your skin and reduce bumps and rash. You can buy Tend Skin on Amazon.com

There's a 50/50 chance that I'll make it to SCC this year, but I will definitely be there in the future.

Enjoy dressing as a woman in all feminine glory when you go. Be a girl. Get yourself a beautiful gown or dress for the Saturday night gala. Southern Comfort Conference is what it's all about.
