Boyswillbegirls.com - opinions for a nervous first timer?

[Gilly68]

I always wanted a professional makeover.
I was looking for one on the web when I found this site and joined.

It looks like it would be a day to remember, especially if women are part of the experience.

I ended up deciding to put the $300 or so into buying wigs and makeup that I still have and trying to learn the art of makeup.

If I had money to burn, I would love to go for a professional makeover.

The makeovers they show are pretty super.

Have Fun,

Miss Judy

I've been saying I'll have to go for a makeover for the last who knows how many years.

And after the last year I, along with everyone else has had, and together with the fact my job is probably finishing by the end of the year, I decided, life's too short, and why not do it, or just regret not doing it! And I've not been away on holiday, so this little trip would be my holiday for the year!

Transformations had always come across as a bit "meh" from the bits and pieces I've garnered.

It used to have 6 branches around the UK in major cities, including London and a short lived place in Newcastle too hidden up a back street in the 1990s (Low Friars Street where it met Fenkel Square for anyone else from the North East who remembers it - there was an even shorter lived competitor set up by a Transformations employee that even got coverage on Tyne Tees local television in the 90s) close to Newcastle's China Town. It has certainly shrunk since then and the goods on its website are way too expensive compared to other sources.

The other places mentioned are certainly doing a good job and some of the makeovers are good enough to make the subject quite passable. I'll peruse when I have more time. 🙂

Thanks Sue, another vote to avoid Transformations! Most of the other places seem to have fine reviews, so they all seem to be doing a good job, as you say.

Hi Gilly , Crossdressing is like being in the MAFIA, You just can't Quit, >Orchid**oo**

I like to think of it more like an addiction - but a healthy one (except for my credit card!)

I have a friend from another site that went to Boyswillbegirls and had an absolutely wonderful time. I saw the pictures and they were beautiful. Go enjoy yourself!

Thanks Crissy, glad your friend had a great experience there!

I'm not in London and have no experience with the company. That being said I'd encourage you to do it. If they have experience and good reviews then I think you would be good. I think you would really be happy you did.

I am definitely going to do it, it's a bit scary, but really exciting! My mind is finally made up after years of putting it off. I spent yesterday evening looking through all the reviews of the different services, so today, I'm going to book a few days off work - I'll just have to make up some excuse about where I'm going in case they ask!!
