What Happens During a Male to Female Makeover Session

So what does a male to female makeover session actually look like? Good question. Here is how it tends to go, when you get a male to female makeover.

You start with a chat about your male to female makeover. Before anyone touches your face or opens a wardrobe for your makeover, you sit down with Lindsay your stylist, for a proper conversation about your male to female makeover.

Not a formal consultation with a clipboard, but a relaxed chat about what you are hoping for with your male to female makeover. You might talk about what kind of look you're drawn to. Natural and soft or full glam, or somewhere in between for your makeover. You might discuss the clothes and styles that appeal to and you might talk about whether you have any ideas about hair and makeup or you're completely open for your makeover.

You might talk about how you're feeling about the whole male to female makeover thing. If you have no idea what you want for your makeover, that is absolutely fine too. That is actually pretty common for people who get a male to female makeover. Your stylist will ask you questions, maybe show you some images and help you figure out a direction together for your makeover. No pressure, no rush, it’s your male to female makeover after all.
