Dear Missy and David....
Well, you two are just awesome. For days, I worried about making the trip to your studio. My nerves were to the point of causing stomach cramps, not knowing what to expect.
I didn't know how to act when you invited me inside...was actually feeling embarrassed to be there. Here I am, a man going to complete strangers and wanting them to make me into a beautiful woman. I am thinking to myself...geeze they must be thinking I am out of my mind wanting to do this. Well, most of my fears were downsized big time as soon as Missy met me at the door...she was so pretty and so very kind. Immediately she started talking and taking over the situation so that I didn't even have to think about being afraid of doing the one thing I have wanted for so long...a professional makeover.
Within minutes of my arrival I had met David and then we all walked around the studio. They explained in detail what we would be doing for the next several hours as I explored each room. The three of us then sat down and just shot the breeze, it was very relaxing. They asked what kind of look I was going to try to achieve that night...what I liked, what type of clothing I liked best, everything from wig colors and styles, to shoes or boots. I was amazed when they showed me the racks of dresses, short, long, slinky, long sleeved, short, sweaters, jackets, shoes of all styles, sexy boots...I was in heaven!
After a time of chat, Missy took me into the salon room where she started the prep work for David. Soon the two of them were discussing and doing the hands on treatment and bingo, my transformation was underway...It was just so kewl the way the two of them made me feel comfortable...laughing, joking, and giving each other the business in great fun. I think it was a couple hours later, my makeup was done and what was so nice was that they explained in detail what they were doing and showed me in the mirror how to do it myself. They actually took pictures for me to see the process and yes, I was able to keep them all too.
Finally, it came time for the wig...and let me tell you, that was like putting the frosting on the cake! Once the wig was on I can not describe the feeling a girl gets…especially when I was able to see myself in the mirror...all of a sudden I forgot about where I was, and even forgot about my poor dog who was in the other room that they were so kind to let me keep inside while I was being treated like a lady. I felt beautiful for the first time ever...I can not describe it girls. No way to tell you, you have to feel it...and I did for sure.
Then, thinking that I was already heaven, it came time to put on a sexy dress with thigh high boots...wow...the feeling got even better...in no time, after special care in setting the right backdrops, candles and music the shutter of the camera started clicking...both Missy and David giving advice how to pose, from feet location to tilting of my head...I was finding out that professional models earned their money....but damn…it was fun and exciting to try it.
Looking back now, my hat goes off to the girls like Missy, Angel, Mikki, Nikki, Celeste just to name a few of the TGMISS family...gads, they look so beautiful and natural in their pictures...I sure hope that on my next visit I will be better at it for sure...and yes, there will be a next time...well worth it girls...like the commercial says...priceless.
The next several hours were spent with different choices of dresses, shoes, jewelry, wigs, and more importantly...with two new friends. Even though both David and Missy said they would go for more changes and more pictures, it was time to call it a night...reluctantly though. It was like being in a women's clothing store with thousands of dresses and looks to try, but best to save it for another trip.
Before leaving David and Missy, the three of us sat and ate pizza and a beverage before saying our goodbyes... Not wanting to waste a perfect makeover, I slipped into a dress of my own for the ride back to a motel...and yes, I glanced at the mirror lots to see the lady looking back at me...what a feeling.
If any of you girls reading this have any questions, any reluctance or even feelings of fear about doing this...forget it. These two people know what they are doing; they see us walk in their doors like little scared girls or boys ... and with all their magik, they see beautiful Ladies walk out proudly. I am still filled with joy that I did it and am still looking at the hundreds of pictures to prove that I did indeed do it!
Thanks once again David and Missy...see you soon I promise.
Jamie Sue
