Feminization Tip #10 Nails for the hails....

Paying careful attention to your nails can be an important aspect of being feminine. Nice nails can take the attention away from large feet, and hands, whilst leaving an impression of being well-groomed, which is also considered feminine. I like to keep my nails simple, like a french manicure, and at a manageable length.

Feminization Tip #9 Dress to impress, but blend...

When I began transition, I had this insatiable appetite for tight-fitting, considerably raunchy fashion. I call it my 'slut stage', though lovingly, as I learned much about myself during this time of self-discovery. I didn't understand at the time, but I was constantly being 'outed', or laughed at by people who would see me, and it all came back to my dress sense. One of the biggest tips to blending in, and passing, is just that... Blending. Try not to be too extravagant, or overtly sexual with your dress sense. While it may give you the allure of being feminine, it is a quick way for people to see the bone structure of narrow hips, and wide shoulders, which are seen as 'dead giveaways' when it comes to passing.

Feminization Tip #8 Do not suffer the bushy brow to live..

AMG, nothing is worse than bushy, or mono brows, and nothing is less femme. So be sure to always wax, or tweeze the unwanted fuzz from your brows. I DO NOT ADVISE SHAVING YOUR BROWS. The obvious is, that shaving easily makes for mistakes with the razor, and you don't want to hurt yourself, or shave a brow off completely by using a razor. The less obvious is that it is easy to tell when someone shaves their brows, because of inconsistency of shape, and lack of a defined line, that is created when one waxes or tweezes. Maintaining your brows, and having them shaped is definitely one of THE most effective things you can do to achieve a more femme look.

Feminization Tip #7 Thou shalt care for thine hair..

Another thing to always be aware of is hair care. It is one of those things that will absolutely put you a foot ahead interms of projecting a sense of femininity. Another reason why it is important is because generally, since childhood, genetic females are taught to care for their hair, where males are generally not so concerned with hair until puberty hits, and even then, it might be at the bottom of the list of concerns for men in general. The keyword for me is HAIR MASKS AND TREATMENTS!!! These two things will have your hair looking shinier, healthy, and smelling great in no time. I mean, I'm not advocating that you doll your hair up like Barbie, or me maybe..(LOL)... But I am advocating healthy, lovely hair, no matter your styling preferences.

Feminization Tip #6 A teaspoon full of sugar, makes the medicine go down... but will make you fat

I'm not a shallow person, and I love people for reasons that have nothing to do with shape, or size, or girth.. so ultimately, I do not judge. But weight can be an important factor when trying to pass, and can often make you, or break you in the feminization department. It can make you with 'big boobs', or it, as most often does, it can break you, by making you look 'pregnant', or as Dr.Kennedy put it, "Like a sausage on a stick". Weight gain will most often have adverse effects on your appearance simply because of how your hormones are instructing weight gain, and placement, coupled with how your bone structure defines your shape. Often, the two will not match if you are even just slightly over-weight, as apposed to a genetic female, who has curves to fill, and the bone structure to shape it. I swear by 30 MINS A DAY exercise, and no less. This will help you to maintain not only your weight, but your overall general health.. Get your heart rate going, and eat good food, and you will reap the rewards of a great figure, and probably a longer life too!!
