HEY GIRLS I WANT TO ASK YOU A QUESTION ? WHEN YOU ARE GETTING ALL DRESSED UP AND THE LAST THING YOU PUT ON IS YOUR WIG . DO YOU FIND HARD TO REALIZED THAT YOU ARE THE SAME PERSON OR DO YOU FEEL LIKE SAYING "HOLY CRAP" SHE'S BEAUTIFUL. I KNOW MYSELF IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE.
I find it amazing the wig is the frosting on the cake: hope to someday let my own hair get styled properly, as I have plenty of it, yet wigs have such dramatic effects for different styles and looks that only take a minute like changing heels.
Rexy -- A little bit of both. I find it hard to believe it's me that's staring back in the mirror and, if I do a good job with my makeup, I find the woman staring back to be attractive and, sometimes, pretty (or at least, I think so).

Agreed - that is unquestionably the point of "transformation" for me...

When my wig goes on, there is definately "something" that happens. Before that I still feel feminine as I'm wearing nice clothes and make up, but I look in the mirror I don't see what I'm feeling. The moment I first brush my wig down, and I look in the mirror, the person looking back is more reprsentative to what's going on inside and I think "ah, yes....there she is"

My picture thread http://crossdressers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=28557
The first time I did it, without the makeup, at the wig store, and my sister was in attendance. She bought the wig for me. Anyway, with the wig on, I looked like an overweight version of my sister. There was no difficulty telling we were related.
I've worn just makeup before and I look like a bald guy with makeup. The first time I wore makeup and tried on my new wig I was amazed at the difference. I knew who I was but the person looking back at me from the mirror wasn't me. Now that I've done this a few times, I know who is looking back at me and I like it. Makes the transformation complete.

The Wig does make a difference Externally..My wife has no problem with me dressing or the make up..However she can not stand my Wig..I think she believes it is too convincing although I do not see it. I don't think I would Pass.. Internally I feel no different. I am always Sarah, dress or not.

I agree, the wig is the keystone, the piece that holds everything in place. I got a new human hair wig last week that is quite close to my original hair colour, and when it is styled, I will be quite confident. When I did my cheerleader thing (Opportunity or trap thread), the blonde wig was the killer element.
The wig for me is just the final touch. i have long hair but with a receeding hair line so not very femm. but i usually only put it on when i go out. If i am staying it and doing stuff around the house i don't wear it. At home i feel just as good just dressed and with out make up then when i fully dress and go out. I guess for me its about how i feel about myself and not fully about how I look.

The wig is the frosting on the cake--- I don't care if my look is the best one yet or ?? Time to perform for my pubic--- I wish-- Heck some of us only have so much to work with--- Enjoy !!
The wig is the last part of dressing 4 me. Cant pass but the feeling of the hair on my shoulders and combing it is a great feeling. The wig does top it off 4 me.
Well, I don't wear a wig since my hair is long anyhow, but I can agree, when I've done my hair just right or when I'm trying out a new style it can really put the topper on it

I would agree that the wig is the turning point, drab to femme, for me too. But, I like to put the wig on before my dress or other outer apparel. Minimizes the "guy in a dress" image for me.

I'm getting better with age. I may have started late, but better late than never!
"Don't let anyone define who you are".
I agree that a wig makes a lot of difference. When I was in my twenties I had fairly long hair, so I could style it to look feminine. I had a couple of wigs (blond and brunette), but they were just a novelty. Now I have a standard "businessman's" haircut, and it just does not go with a feminine look.
I notice it most when I take my wig off. At that point I am a man again. (I really dread having to take it off! Yuck!)
One other thing to note is how much the wrong wig can ruin your look. I had a blond wig about a month ago that made me look worse. I lucked out and got the "chestnut" colour I have now, and it goes with everything and makes me feel wonderful. Even my mother cannot believe what a difference it makes.
Hey girls thank you so much for posting on my thread. Did I also mention that this dressing is REALLY A LOT OF FUN !!!!
