Your first transformation

[DanaB]

Hi, i was wondering what everyone's first transformation to femme was like (most importantly facial transformation). Were you surprised to how feminine you looked? Were you disappoiinted with anything? As a CD who hasn't used any make-up or wigs or any kind of beauty care (as well as one with still a beard hehe) i worry how i'll come out when i am ready for the next step.

I was surprised by just how much I looked like my mother.

My first time was just a bra, panties and a slip. It was a great look but of course it was incomplete. The first time I went all the way it was fantastic. I continued to work on my make-up until I felt I had a good look. Once I found it, I started going out to shop, nightclubs and trips. It is so much fun to get it right.:love:

On my first ever makeover that I had done, I also had pictures taken. One of the better ones I framed and put on the wall in my house. When my ex-wife came by one time she asked who the girl was in the picture. When I told her it was me she still did not believe me.

When I first fully crossdressed in Oct 2006.
I thought I looked pretty good, but if I look at old pictures of myself then, compared to now, I looked like a clown.
I as I progressed I got better at applying make up and finding the tone so now I look a lot better than those early months.

Hugs!

Started in just wearing dresses when younger. then just grew as time passed. Go to pictures and you can see me and a picture of my mother. I have been told look better as a woman than man. It will take practice with make up and sorts I believe we all had this problem. To find the right waay for all of us.

My first transformation I had back in Dec 2005 at Wildside in Toronto.. I was on a business trip and had an afternoon off.. I gathered up my courage and walked in and did it! It was the MOST amazing thing in the world to see the girl inside me looking back at me in the mirror! I would highly recommend going to professional if you want that WOW factor! I've been to several professionals since who have been better but the first time always stays with you! Well worth the money in my book! :2c:

I remember mine, on the road. My hair looked great, legs shaved, nails done, hose, heels, nice skirt...........then......oh crap, forgot to shave the face......you could see the stuble through the foundation......heheh......

Oh well, it did get better.

I looked like hell. I thought to myself, I will never be able to make this face look like a woman. I knew little of makeup or how to correctly apply it. As time went on I slowly learned and then, one day, I looked in the mirror and said to myself, now that's a girl.

It took years, but that day, was a very nice day.

[Jocelyn Quivers]

Summer of 2003. I had just taken the dramatic step of shaving off my mustache which I had for many years, and have not had since. I had just purchased a wig and make up during the winter. I couldn't belive how different I looked with everything on. I was quite impressed.

[Chickhe]

I tried it once when I was younger and we first met. My wife did my hair and makeup. I thought I looked okay and we spent the evening dressed up and we both ended up a bit drunk. The next morning I have a very clear memory of waking up and looking in the full length mirror and thinking to my self, who is the cute girl? Then doing a double take and looking more closely at my image and feeling a little bit scared because of the shock and not knowing how I should feel.

[Princess29]

The first time that I both was fully made up and also the first time I went in public was basically a year or so ago while I was in Las Vegas. I went to Glamour Boutique for a makeover and couldnt believe the results.
While necessary, the makeup was unfortunately very thick in order to hide my facial hair and that ruined the effect, in fact up close I looked quite scary but some of the photos that I took after getting back to my hotel room were some of the best photos that have ever been taken of me.
I didnt really know how I'd look but was overall fairly happy with the finished product

[Sally24]

My first full transformation by a professional and my first day out in public were the same day! I was very impressed with what she did with my hair (wig) and how "real" I felt and looked. According to my wife I cried at the end of the day because I didn't think it would ever be possible!

I have improved on my own makeup skills and slowly found a look of my own. I will always remember that first day out in the world as a female! It is scary and you have to decide if it is for you, but it is an incredible feeling!

My first transformation was in July and my second was in December. They were both done in the same place but one by a gurl and another by a GG. I loved both of them, they each had a different feeling to them, one that is hard to explain.

My avatar is from the first one and my profile pic is from the second. I want to do it again and in a few months I will.

[Mitch23]

My first time was when my then domme mistress decided she was going to transform me. She did the whole works including wig and makeup, something that i experienced for the first time. When she had finished, I looked at myself in the mirror and was entranced by the girl i saw looking back at me who looked so beautiful. I had never considered myself a crossdresser up until that moment and it did something to me that has changed my life forever

I've never had a professional transformation or makeover. One of these days I will. I have a CD friend who has a business doing just that. When I do it, I intend to give her "carte blanche" with her creativity. I love trying out different looks but it would be interesting to see her "take" on it. I too look like my Mom in her glory days in some of the pics I take. I guess the saying that the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree is true, no matter which parent it is.:happy:

[AmandaM]

The first time fully enfemme I knew I could walk down the street and not be outed. I was 13. Now, that's debatable.

[KrissyTN]

I have had two or three transformations over the years until the one I just had this past Friday which I posted about.

The first time that I had it done was in Boston, and the shop proprietor put what he called a "professional" corset on me. Then did my makeup and I tried on several outfits. I remember not being to happy with the wig, but gracious, seeing that hourglass figure (at the time) was astounding to me!

I'm working on getting back to that hourglass figure and I know a lot more about makeup now than I did back in the late 80's. But, I smile when I think about it because you never forget your first time as they say. It wasn't my first time dressing as that started when I was around 7, but it was my first time fully enfemme with the whole gambit.

My first time fully dressed was in early December 2007, and yea, I'd have to say I was very surprised. I have been messing around with makeup for a little bit before then, but I don't recall ever having too much trouble with makeup.. i love it playing with make up! but yea, it was like seeing a completely different person in the mirror, and I couldn't believe how feminine I looked, but of course, I'm still working on it. The only thing I can really say about makeup, is that in my opinion, the eyes are really important.

[darla_g]

you know i had been hoping for better. i think secretly i was hoping for hot, but makeup was bad, clothes pretty thrown together and no idea how to carry myself. but it was funnn!

[MarinaTwelve200]

Although I have been CDing since age 12, I never got a good "concept" of my appearence till 2004 when I went all out to devise an elaborate "Gypsy Fortune Teller" costume for my sunday school Halloween Party. For The first time I had a GOOD wig , false eyelashes and an extra careful makeup job---Suddenly I was able to actually "see" what my fem self looked like. I looked like a real woman----Not only that, I remided myself of my SISTER in appearence, but Being taller and with a more promenent nose, rather than being short and with a button nose, I looked MUCH better (IMHO)----more like an idealized version of her.

[BOOTLOVINGGIRL]

With little experience with makeup, I went to a professional for my first full on transformation. I was totally blown away by the results. To know after so many years of dressing that I could be beautiful (at least with someone's help) is a wonderful feeling. Best money I ever spent.

[Jennifer Marie P.]

I was amazed on how my first transformation was and did not believe how I looked

[sami1952]

I was really surprised the first time,the so was away from home and i had just bought my first makeup kit and try makeup for the first time.rather enjoyed it and been doing it since.

[DeeAnn]

My first transformation was done by my wife. I was astounded to see a young version of my mother staring back at me in the mirror. It was so amazing I had to take a 3 block walk at night to the coke machine. The funny part was that two guys drove by honking and whistling. I don't know if it was the dark or they were drunk or if it just looked that good. I know it felt great.

[TaylorAB]

Actually my first time en femme was during the freshmen initiation at my high school when I was 14. All the boys had to come dressed as girls and all the girls had to come dressed as boys. The boys wore bunny ears, mid-drift top, very short shorts, bunny tail and high heel shoes.

We were taken out in public dressed like this singing we love the seniors. It was very strange yet very exciting for me. I wish that I had never experienced adolescense as a male. I would have loved to have developed into a woman.

It all ended up with the boys in a chorus line singing "We love short shorts" (an old Nair commercial). I pretty much repressed that until 2003 when I dressed for the first time since I was 14. It brought back all the excitement of that day and the feelings that I had hid from since then.

Sometimes, I kind of wish that I could get on a plane and go to Thailand have an operation and come back. Who knows, maybe someday I will.

I am 51 now and started wearing women's clothing when I was 12-13.

In Oct. 2004, I decided to get my first professional makeover just to see what I would look like. I had found Phoebe Cross on the internet and called her and made an appointment. She was wonderful. She made me feel relaxed even though inside I was wondering what the heck I was doing here, dressed in front of this lady I don't know. She gave me encouragement and about a month later I attended a Tri-ess meeting. I went out to dinner with them on Friday night dressed in fem. That was my first time out in public dressed as Michelle. I went to the meeting on Saturday morning but had to leave at noon.

My second makeover was in Oct. 2005. Phoebe had moved and was not doing makeovers but I found Arah in Newnan (GA). She is the wife of a crossdresser and a makeup artist. Her web site is
Http://arahminah.no-ip.biz/.
I went to her on a Friday night and we spent about 3 hours together. She gave me a manicure and did my makeup. She had a few outfits that I used for the photo shoot. I had brought my own underthings and wig and a few outfits of my own that we also took pictures in. I hated to get undressed at the end, but I had to go. She said I looked great and I should go out, but I just did not have the time to do so.

I have since had several makeovers with Arah and have been out in public a few times afterwards. I always feel so sexy and fem when I do have the makeover as I feel I look more like a real woman. I would recommend them!
