Assuming you wear one, do you do all your make-up and dressing leaving the wig for last or do as I do and put it on before I start. I feel GG's have their hair on full time so I feel more femme having to deal with my hair through the whole process.

Fun, fun, hehehe!

I put my wig on last. This way I can put foundation on my forehead, up to my natural hairline. Thus, I don't get any makeup on my wig.

I have tried doing it with my wig on, but prefer to do it without. I like having a nice clear view of what I am doing. I do put my bra and forms on before make-up, but the wig is always last.

I like wearing my wig while putting on my make up so I can see what I look like and make sure the colors are right.

It's the last thing I put on and the first thing I take off.

I start out with it off, but before I finish my make up I put it on.

I would like the feeling of putting on makeup with my wig on but it just isn't practical. A GG typically uses less foundation and can just wash the hair a little if it gets makeup on it. Maybe someday I'll use an old wig as my "makeup wig".

[COLOR="Magenta"]I put my wig on last . I feel it is what brings everything together when I put it on last. Also after two years of going out it still makes me go Wow, to look at her in the mirror after the wig is finally on.:happy:

I put on my wig last also. I just like being able to do the makeup without the problem of having the extra hair around my face.

I have never owned a wig at all.

My natural hair is shoulder-length. Sometimes I have to move it out of the way when applying makeup.

A lot of gg's tie it up away form their face. Or wear a headband.

With me it's makeup first, then wig.

With me its the last thing I put on.

Its amazing when your in front of a mirror with your makeup on and the clothes you are going to wear and then you put your wig on and(Then all of a sudden WALA!!)you have just completed the transition and you look GREAT!
Hugs,

I'm like Tina, my wig is the last thing on and the first thing off (except maybe earrings). When I get dressed, it's like the crowning moment, the one item that pushes me over the threshold from man to woman.

Last thing on except for lipstick. Both for practical reasons and like others here, love that final transition point.

Don't even own a wig.

But to answer the practical part of the question, I wear a head band while getting ready. Keeps the hair out of my preparation.

In that respect, I"cheat" and put it on next to last before any jewelery and lipstick. Lipstick is always the "final touch" for me.:happy:

I put my face on, get dresseed, wig, nails and the jewerly. It is eaiser for me to get to zippers and to pull a top over without a wig.

I think if GG's could take their hair off to do their Make-up, they would because it just gets in the way, alot of GG's are going for shorter hair, hate that, love long hair, I wait till the last thing to do.

I put on foundation and powder, then a wig, then do my eyes and blush. Sometimes I will use hair clips or pull it into a ponytail while finishing. Oh yea,, I pick out my earrings just after putting on the wig.
Years ago I kept my hair pretty long and enjoyed fixing it in fem styles, often used highlite kits got perms etc,, but old age & mother nature have been very mean to my hairline or lack of,,,,,,

I put on foundation and eyeliner first, then my wig as I enjoy looking in the mirror as I put on my lipstick.

I always put my wig on last----much easier to see putting on my makeup and i do a much better job-----After the wig is in place the only item left is my jewelry

I dont wear a wig very often , but when I do its the last to go on. Now that my hair is sholder length it is a problem putting on make up. the head band idea is great ,I am going to try that.

I usually put it on last. You have to admit, though, that we have one advantage over GG's';When you have a pullover top and do not want to muss your hair, you can just take it off. :D

I save putting on my wig after applying my foundation, eyeshadow and mascara. I will apply my lipstick after my wig goes on and finally, I will put on my earings.

It's usually last but when I have to dress in the car because I cannot fully dress in the hotel, I'm in that uncomfortable half on half off stage. Once the foundation is on, the wig goes on and then the lipstick. Now I'm in enough girl mode and can do my eyes, etc. without looking like a guy putting on make-up in the car.

I like to end my dressing session by puttting on earrings, putting on and adjusting the wig, then lipstick and a spray of perfume.

like most of you - wig on last - the final transformation. Tried it the other way but doesn't work for me. Very envious of all you girls who can use their own hair!

Wig last but really the earrings are last but only because I wear clip ons and when I brush out my wig the earrings end up somewhere on the floor.
