Reply  Unfortunately, I haven’t started my RLE yet – it’s something I’ve been putting off for 6 months or so. There are a number of reasons However, most important to me is the relationship I have with my wife. I love her dearly and as she is totally unaccepting of me being TS. we have […]

Reply  I used to use the same hairdresser as my ex-wife. I never thought it was weird at all then and never did a hairdresser comment. As I got older my hair got thinner and just does not look good whatever I do to it. About five years ago I cut it all off and […]

  Guess most salons are quite easygoing. Just say you want to wear it long, but occasionally tie it back. The important thing is to get it thinned and layered so that you don’t look like a guy with long thick hair. Then work your own style when it is down. Invest in a Braun […]

Consider extensions if you can afford them However, you need to be budgeting for quite a substantial amount of money every 6 to 7 weeks. This is not so good if your income isn’t high.

Reply  I’ll get hold of some and give it a try. Yesterday I went out for the first time without a wig and found that fewer people tended to stare at me. Natural hair obviously looks better than a wig. Off to a wedding, this afternoon followed by the reception and then the reception for […]

  Reply  My girlfriend had that problem. She tried a lot of different hair-thickening shampoos. However, she did not rate them too highly.
