My favorite part of getting dressed is the final step, that moment when I place my wig on my head, flip it back and gaze into the mirror.
I feel a shiver throughout my body as I flip my hair over my head. It’s like the great reveal moment of a home improvement show.
Then there she is, herself, in all her glory. Then I start brushing. Of course I worked out any tangles before I put the wig on but now I have to get my hair just right. So I brush and I toss, I try a scrunchie, no, not today. I try a head band, no, not feeling it. I sweep my hair behind one ear, then the other, I shake it. Over one shoulder, then over the other. Behind one ear but over the shoulder on the other side. All the while brushing, always brushing.
When I finally get it just right, I look at my watch……… where did the time go?? It was worth it, I look great and feel great.
Hugs, Jillian
That is definitely time well spent Jillian! As they say, time flies when you're having fun, lol.
My only problem is getting everything just right, and then deciding "maybe that red blouse would look nicer...." . Then the process starts all over again! 😅

“How long” implies that I stopped staring in the mirror :). The moment I step in front of the mirror is like entering the grand ballroom. Excited to see what I look like in all my glory…only to then touch up this or straighten out that. No wait I bet my new heels would look better. Ohh the light just isn’t right here? Maybe if adjust my pose slightly…oh that is it! Perfect! Now where did the camera go? Ughh can’t reach it. No Jillian I have no idea what you are describing lol
I love that moment Jillian! Getting butterfly’s just thinking about it. I always feel a little silly putting on makeup and forms until I put that wig on and see myself . Then I’m filled with joy and the transformation is complete. I haven’t experimented with drugs in my life but I have a hard time believing they could replicate that high of seeing her in the mirror! Thanks
The final touch when the hair is in place - That's why it's called the crowning glory.
Mirror Mirror on the wall........
That happens all the time, Stevie! Then I find that I lost the window for an outing I had planned.

The camera, the tripod, don't forget the lights, check the settings. Before you know it the morning is gone and all I have is some pictures.
But ... love the pictures, so that's ok
Jillian
oh, and my mirror lies but my Nikon is brutally honest.

I understand the wisdom in putting on my makeup first, I don't really like doing it though. first, my makeup skills stink and the disconnect is really big for me.
Jillian
who's the crossdressyest of all?
Mine too Jill. I always do my make before the wig. So I always feel a major disconnect
I get lost in front of the mirror just brushing my hair. It is such a wonderful feeling.

I wear beautiful/romantic/bridal sleepwear & lingerie to bed so I stand in front of the mirror A LOT lol!
I am willing to bet that each of us will look at each and every mirror that we pass by, often times, to gaze with wonder, excitement and satisfaction at our image. The mirror is a CD's best friend!
Hugs, Kathy
Yeah, I sorta pause in front of each mirror in the house too
