For individuals born men, passing for a woman can be a difficult and even frightening undertaking. Whether you are a transsexual or just want to have fun, this article will help you achieve convincing femininity.
Steps
Step 1. Consider everything
How old are you? What kind of body do you have? What do you want to look like? Analyze the type of woman you want to become.
Step 2. Take a shower
Wash your hair with shampoo and conditioner. Guys often have drier and rougher hair than girls, so use a cream to moisturize your hair. Shave (at least legs, armpits and chest). If you haven't done it for a long time, get ready to use more than one razor blade. Some moisturizing body soap is a good idea and use a moisturizer in the end as well.
Step 3. Shave your beard
A perfect shave is mandatory: use a sharp razor blade and take your time. Be gentle - you don't want to irritate your skin. Close the pores with a mild toner and of course use some face cream. Also try using oil-free sunscreen. It will protect your skin from wrinkles caused by UV rays. If you want to get rid of facial hair more efficiently, try waxing, electrolysis, or laser.
Step 4. Shave your brows
Remove excess hair under and between the eyebrows until you have a natural arch shape. Don't overdo it: if you want extremely well-groomed lashes, go to a beautician.
Step 5. Apply the nail polish
At least make sure your nails are clean and well-groomed. A clear nail polish is always good, but there are so many other possibilities. When did you last have a manicure?
Step 6. Make sure you have enough hair
If you don't have enough you will have to use a wig - a good wig! Otherwise, go to the hairdresser and ask for advice. Hairdressers know hair well and can advise you on what's in style and what is the perfect cut for you. Get an idea of what you want before going to the hairdresser, but also be open to his advice.
Step 7. Cover imperfections
Get some concealer and / or liquid foundation with tones similar to those of your skin, and a powder that "seals" the foundation. Use a moisturizer - it will be the primer, the basis of your makeup; the rest of the makeup will turn out easier and more beautiful. Make sure you apply your makeup perfectly so that you don't see the difference between makeup and bare skin. Also avoid the "masks" that make you old and unnatural.
Step 8. Apply the blush
You will need blush to avoid looking pale. Smile and you will spot your cheeks, those round apple-like areas. Apply the blush with delicate upward strokes. Do not overdo it. Blush can also soften the jaw, emphasize the cheekbones, define the nose, minimize the forehead, etc. Typically dark areas seem to fade and lighter areas are emphasized. Don't overdo it and avoid the clown look!
Step 9. Pay attention to the eyes and lips
Learn how to do these areas, even if you won't be wearing makeup every day. Focus on eyes or lips, but never both. If you want smoky eyes, just use mascara and a light eyeshadow. If you want fiery red lips, opt for a nice gloss or a lipstick that is not too bright. Many beginners are often tempted to have very intense makeup. Remember to adapt your makeup to the occasion. Be elegant and it will always look good.
Step 10. Make sure you have the curves in the right places and be careful where you “shouldn't have” bumps
Padded bras and tight underpants (or swimsuit bottoms) are great ways to start. Corsets, silicone cups, and other form-making garments are other options. However, if you really want to become a woman, hormones and plastic surgery are your best bet.
Step 11. Choose an outfit that fits your body
Dizzying necklines take attention away from broad shoulders. Imperial-cut dresses cover small hips, pronounced bellies, and flat butts. If your legs are your strong point then show them off (but shave!). Getting to know your body and making the most of it is key to looking like a woman.
Step 12. Improve your posture and understand that feminine gestures - even the smallest ones - are important
Observe how women speak and study their facial expressions. You smile. Walk with your legs and not with your shoulders. Hold your belly. Stand up straight. Walk gently.
Step 13. Improve your voice
The women's voices have a higher pitch and are more melodic. Imitate the voice of those women you spend a lot of time with, then find a friend to emulate. The best practice is to talk to people in public places; this way your motivation will skyrocket. You can also find scotch tape and other specific articles online, if you are not satisfied with your progress, look for a speech therapist.
Advice
- Women don't always wear heels so you don't have to chastise your feet. Ballet flats and flats can be beautiful for many reasons. For one thing, men are typically taller than women, so heels could make you so tall. Heels make your leg muscles tense, so (especially if you have muscular legs) they can make your legs look very thick. The dancers are an excellent solution and are very beautiful. If you choose heels, wear them at home first to learn how to walk on them.
- Handle awkward situations with humor and you shouldn't have too many problems.
- There is no need to say it, but brush your teeth every day. You can also use mouthwash and whitening strips for a beautiful smile.
- If you know a girl, ask her for help. Many girls are happy to advise and make honest judgments about how convincing you are as a woman.
- Trust yourself and limit your fear.
- Buying fashion magazines like Vogue might give you good ideas. There are also many sites like Grazia, Elle, Donna Moderna and Cosmopolitan that can keep you updated on trends.
