I prefer to do it myself. I know what I like and it is easier to do it myself.
A year ago I made an appointment at ultra and had this nice girl there do my makeup. It was a bucket list thing, as I wanted to have it done by a professional. It was ok, but not something I would do again.
I have also had some girls I had just met drag me into the restroom and fix my makeup. I had been at the local track with my friends, cheering on ones SO. I had stopped at this local bar on the way home. Ended the night in a hot tub with them.
I use to have this fantasy that like dressing up with someone would be fun. Most all my friends are GGs. I have stayed over at their houses, my BFF is a GG. So I as I say have been schooled by them.
That is early on they would give me their opinion. I have developed my own style that works for me.
Of all the fantasies having GGs as close friends is one that has become better then I had dreamed.
I think if you really want this than by all means do what it takes to make it happen.
I guess I should point out that for the last three years I have been living with a GG and we have become best friends. So for me the fantasy has become reality.
