Hello and Merry May …To Everyone-
Many of you have emailed me–asking to hear more about my consultations. Keeping them confidential, I thought it would be fun for you to live through my perspective. For the next three days, I have a new girl coming in from the UK. A long flight–for a consultation…but good for her wanting “to get it right”. Her goal is to attend a major TG convention…upon leaving here.
She has already arrived and is resting in a SF hotel. This afternoon, I have her visiting the wig salon (not wig store) I use in SF–for natural human hair wig….. where I have been working with the wig specialist there, who have two different colored wigs made up. They are long, and un=cut…but first step…is for the client to pick the color. I had dark roots put in, a lower medium brown low color, then…beautiful reddish gold highlights. When, she picks her favorite color combination, I had made up for her, their specialist will cut the style,determined by her face shape and neck size. I was sent photos of her favorite hair color, and put it together from that.
She will stay in San Francisco tonight, and sight see.
Tommmorw, she will drive to Santa Cruz, and check into a hotel I had suggested. We will begin with Movement and Voice, as those are the two most difficult areas to change and maintain. We will cover all the movement, covered on my DVDs and she will take the DVDs home to remember what we covered. We will create her own way of moving, with my help seeing anything which stands out. We then cover stairs, cars, doors, coats, handbags, being seated at a table, how to swing your hips, and gestures while speaking. With a short break on the patio, with a snack…..we then begin Voice.
I use a computer software program which records her pitch, resonance and inflection and then gives her the score. We then play it back, and she can HEAR and SEE . The scale doesn’t lie, so this is a fabulous way to teach feminine voice. She will then, practice…..as she will know her score. Next, we go to the local mall- where she will pick a pair of glasses at Lense Crafters, as she is bringing her RX. And, that will be a full day one for us!
The next day, we will cover all her makeup, and how to roll and curl her wig. We will cover some ways to take feminine photos, and some simple dance sways….for the Sat night event at her upcoming TG convention. We will review her wardrobe, and determine her colors and if the style of clothing she is purchasing, is correctly put together. Then, with some sad goodbyes…I send her off into the world, to blend and succeed at her very first TG convention. I often hear back from my consultation girls, by phone. We go over voice, and new questions come up.i. Girls who live near CA, often touch base with me, once a year…and we take everything to an entirely new level. I can then, see any mistakes they are making, with purchases, or lack of practice. These are the girls, who really look good and blend, and I am very proud to say….this is the very best way to obtain a truly, natural and feminine new look. Everything takes practice and many things take a coach. I believe in coaches, to learn anything new. I just hired a tennis coach, so I don’t teach myself bad habits!
I will touch base with all of you, after she leaves, as we will be working non-stop. I hope this helps many of you, regardless of where you live, get good help.
Now, what am I going to wear? See, the girl work…. never stops!!!
Smiles,
Denae
PS: See all of you at Be All in Chicago and Southern Comfort in Atlanta, do email me if you would like to meet with me for a mini one hour, consultation…while there!
