Yesterday afternoon I went for a pedicure on my red polished nails... same tech ... she's seen my red nails several times. When she finished, I asked her to come look at a phone photo (of me taken at DLV). She held my phone, said the lady was pretty and asked who she was. I told her, ME! She said, "nooo", but I again said ME. She enlarged the photo's face, and held the phone next to my face... same eyes, glasses and smile, said she, and gave me a big grin.
I told her I often dress as a woman and that my toenails are always polished. Another big grin from her. I said I might come in one day as a woman.... might. She got excited and hoped I would.
It was small icebreaker, but now someone else knows I dress. I'll bet all the shop techs know, now, too. Its a small beginning for me locally. The fact that she didn't recognize me... makeup, wig, etc...tells me I can be out and about with little chance of being recognized as 'me'.
