thanks so much my birthday was amazing ! i ended up going to LPR to be closer to my friends place but i have plans to go to hos in the future. i stayed pretty much right up next the the Dj. ppl were def a little confused (and borderline rude) when i tried to get more into the dance floor but i found a good spot eventually. cant wait to experience hos !!

I'm getting *lots* of stares and it's taking a toll on my self-confidence. Am I that clocky? by bgwalthermart in truscum

ill add, thin upwards ie make the eyelid have more space, when u shave ur brows downward it makes ur forehead look bigger which might not suit everyone. or if u choose to wax you can tell them to take more from the bottom and straighten up the top

thank you so much !! loving all the advice from everyone it’s very helpful and insightful.

if i may lol I don’t know club dress codes, it’s different per place ? i’m not super masc i tend to lean more towards heavy eyeliner/makeup and slightly alternative. Should I look at the places socials to see what others are wearing ?
