Dear Wannabee

Absolutely rivetting!  I would like to see you and Ginger marry, for you to be employed by the TV judge and become the stylist and make-up specialist which all the customers want to book.

A superb story, beautifully written.  My only, very minor, complaint is that 'each' and 'other' are separate words!  But please, please continue with this story until all the characters die!

Love, Devina

DAkpXA I serched through the internet and got here. What a wonderful invention of the mankind. With the help of the network you communicate, learn, read !... That helped us to get  acquainted!....

Dear Ginger,

I'm probably writing in the wrong place but what else is new? :)  I read your piece 'Regrets...'.  It was, too say the least, very powerful.  It is one of the few pieces that I saved to read and reread.  It has the reeking stench of truth and pain that seems too affect so many in our community.

You might consider posting it on The Big Closet-Top Shelf.  You can find it, as I do, through the links section of this site.  The Big Closet also has a very discreet intra-site e-mail system for the authors and readers.

I enjoy your tales and your writing is quite superb.  As for your block...I have seen tales left unfinished for several years and then suddenly revitalized with a refreshed spirit.  And yes...vacations do help!  :D

May Your Words Flow Like a Mighty River...

Kelly

Really like your story. Another thirty or so chapters and it might be considered for a movie. Suspense is there, very e-zy on the sex, needs a little more drama, maybe even some comedy thrown in, and leave the end , (like do the boy and ginger get married) save that for the the sequal. And it might just make it.
 Signed, MJS

I have to apologize!!!  If anyone has ever experienced "writer's block",  you'll know what I went through after setting up the whole "what happened next?" question.... only then to find myself unable to answer.....   I've tried some short pieces and,  if you're watching,  you'll have read my wife's efforts..... where tow or three chapters are waiting for publications......   I'll honestly try... I will.... I'll promise to write a sequel to the Apprentice.   I CANNOT believe that it was 11/04 when that began!   Please forgive me!

Comment by AV on 03/06/07
It's too bad that you never continued this, what happened? You said you would be gone for a few weeks then continue, that was 2 years ago. I know you've written a few other short pieces, but please keep this one going again.

Comment by Lauran on 02/17/07
Loved the story, then you tease saying there will be more, but never got around to posting them.
I will have to make do with reading the suggestions.
Have read all your stuff now, please write some more.
Lauran

Comment by Henry on 01/26/07
I just discovered your first episode and found it thrilling. It was so careful and gentle , but nevertheless inevitable. The setting was meticulously described, too. I look forward to reading the remaining episodes ! My compliments on your work.

Comment by vicki on 11/02/06
Wonderful story. My wife roler sets my hair almost every night and I love to see it in curlers.  A preteen boy with a short pageboy style or curls in a pretty bouncy flip sets the stage for panties and dresses. Write a new story about young boys being feminized and entered in hair styling competitions.

Comment by Bobbie on 04/09/05
Wannabe, I absolutely love your story. The details about the hairstyling are terrific. You asked for ideas; here's mine: The TV Judge has invited our Boy to pursue his adventure and now offers to underwrite his cosmetology training and feminization, plus employment at his beauty salon. Ginger and Karen both love the Boy and encourage him to accept the offer since they want him to continue on this track but they themselves do not have the money to pay for it all. They are even willing to go along with the one proviso the TV Judge requires: The Boy must be willing to accept whatever style or look the TV Judge prefers - how can that hurt?
Well, the TV Judge takes the Boy under his wing and starts off by bleaching his hair pure Platinum Blonde and cuts it into modified Page Boy where the bottom is not horizontal but rather it is raked at an angle with the back of his neck shaved 3 inches above his neck. And big puffy bangs. He continues with the 1 inches false eyelashes from the competition but now has plucked out all his eyebrows and draws in beautiful high arches. He is required to wear very tight corsets and 4 inches heels every day. He must also learn to work with 1 inches acrylic nails. The TV judge also insists the Boy wear double-D breast forms. Sorry for going on so long - you got me so excited. Please write the next chapter soon. Thank you, Bobbie

Looking forward to the continuation of your story.  Is more coming? Are you posting at other sites?  Hope you are doing well.

Thanks,
HB

Comment by Tracy on 11/27/04
Yes,
My girlfriend does my hair in rollers and I sit under the dryer while she does my nails.  She just took me last Wednesday to her stylist where we didi my dark brown hair in a deep auburn with lighter red and blonde highlights.  We tried to mimick your story.  We are both really exicted and hope to play out more of your story as you keep giving us ideas.
Thanks again for the great story.  Hope your vacation was relaxing.

Comment by Bouffant flip on 11/27/04
I have felt all along that the girls had an ulterior motive going on and I expected our lad to end up being a femminized beautition himself or being a captive of some sort that was being prepared to be used and then maybe sold off for the girls profit.  I like the romance with Ginger and how she draws him into femininity.  I think he should be corsetted and on a one way street to womanhood but keep him with the girls and have him level with his parents.  Please keep the hairdressing details strong and vivid, as well as the use of rollers, teasing, and Aquanet.  I have a weakness for Retro hairstyles of the 60's and 70's & 80's big hair.  Bouffant flips and bobs I adore as well as big french twists that cover the ears with bobbypins and hairpins galore.
I would like to see the girls use a little force and introduce our hero to some love bondage.
He has to end up a chastised hairstylist creating hairstyles that keep him in a continual state of arousal.

Thanks for asking for suggestions and please continue the story.

Comment by Wannabe Ginger on 11/26/04
Thanks Tracy and Cleo - I'll get on with the next enstakllments now i'm back from vacation.  It sounds like Margot's Mom is a key player... as I suspected......  I was in two minds about her,  because this is a hairstyling story,  but I have ideas for this angle... extreme hair!   Meanwhile,  Ginger's got to be just perfect as a girlfriend, so you'll get lots more about her.  too far to be going back?.... of course!!!!!!

Thanks......

PS Tracy, does your girlfriend set your hair in rollers and does she do colours????

Comment by Tracy on 11/21/04
It's been a great story so far.  I love to have my hair done by my girlfriend.  Having her explore with Margot's mom while keeping thw sweet side with Ginger might be fun.  Also, becoming more feminine in body to match the hair would be fun to read as well.  I always look forward to reading your next installment.  Thank you.

Comment by cleo on 11/19/04
Really great story so far. I think that he is too far into this to revert back. I see him moving in with Ginger and dressing at least half of the time at home and out shopping and bar hopping.
Maybe an attempt at a threesome with Karen that doesn't work out.
I think that he should have a narrow escape from Margot's mother's clutches. Maybe he could be saved at the last minute by Ginger and Karen storming the place with a policeman that they tell of hearing a shot fired.

Comment by Wannabe Ginger on 11/06/04
This is an experiment, girls!

Let’s try to make this wonderful site of Crystal’s INTERACTIVE……..

I’m going on vacation for a couple of weeks……..

I have lots of ideas for the continuation of the story but YOU may have too!

Just once, so far,  a reader made a suggestion – the Chignon!

I was delighted to work this into the story.

Now the competition has reached its climax -  WHERE DO WE GO???!!!!!


Does the Boy go home with Ginger?

Does he go home to confront his parents?  If so,  do they encourage him?!

Does Margot’s Mother have more of a part to play?  (Not too “Dom.” Please!)

Does he live as a Girl?  (…..or is he happy hetero,  dressing to please Ginger?)

Does he become a regular at the Blonde Ambition salon?

What colour does his hair go next?

What styles can he experiment with?

Can he learn to style his own hair?

What about his make-up?    

Might he,  Ginger and Karen make a three-some?

Do you want to hear how the prize works out?

What if the “Spice Girls” (the winners) got disqualified?

Does the Judge whose a TV have an interesting role to play?


THE QUESTIONS ARE ENDLESS……. AND I AIN’T FINISHED WRITING!

BUT YOU CAN HELP!      PLEASE…………..

SEND YOUR IDEAS THROUGH THE READERS COMMENTS LINK…….

Comment by Donna Dee on 10/27/04
I wrote after part 4 - now again after part 12.  Parts 5 to 11 were very good, slightly too drawn out in parts for my taste but very good for all that.
Part 12 was superb and I forgive your every minor error and typo.  Please get on with the next bit now.

Comment by wannabe ginger on 10/18/04
I'm a bit new at this - this story is my first so I'm looking for lots of constructive feedback -what you like,  what you don't.... I know all about the typos and how I forget details from one chapter to another.. soory for those...  I hope they don't spoil the "read" - it should be fun... I'm certainly getting great fun - it's all imaginings that I'd love to have been a part in.    How many of us have a "fix2 on hair, and its colour and texture and cut??????

Comment by Karen Virginia on 10/16/04
Huggs girl -- we can trade notes anyday ;)  --  love the hair stuff hands down :)

Comment by Francine on 10/11/04
Your tale intrigues me.

Comment by Sydney Michelle on 10/10/04
Very nicely written with a feel for detail and portraying emotions. A bit more attention to the quandry of the transformation's progress would help.

There are some calendering and continuity problems that are not resolved by the first person perspective.  A character is introduced, but disappears without participation. Have the parents seen him coiffed? Apparently not, but there are lines that indicate that they may have. He is in college - or between matriculation and college - or post college. The models will have different styles - or the same style and colour. Hair length changes in mid-episode. A light plotting session would help you keep your plot line ducks in a row.

You also repeat some text within episodes, as if there were originally more, but smaller segments.

The tensions in your story makes it quite enjoyable. The detail is quite well done, the fore-shadowing not overly done. There is a nice balance between dialogue and description. Overall, a very enjoyable tale.

Seems to be corrected now :)

Comment by B on 09/26/04
What happened to part 9?

Comment by Bouffant Flip on 08/25/04
Bring on part 8.  The best has to be yet to come.  I am totaly enjoying this story.  The detail is wonderful.
Please, please, please finish this.  I hope a bouffant french twist is in order?
Thanks, and don't let puncuation get in your way.
Teased

Comment by Moe on 07/12/04
Thank you.  I did not do it intentionally but I am very glad that I waited until you had 4 chapters posted.  As soon as I had read the first I then had to read the second and so on.  The slow seduction of the story is trilling. And now the transformation, I have not yet read part 5 but the excitment built up from the end of part 4 is to much to wait any longer.

Great story, please kep going.
Moe

Comment by Rose on 07/08/04
4 Wonderful parts, please bring on the next part. What a wonderful girlfriend Ginger is.

Comment by Donna on 07/08/04
Just read part 4 -   Now after part one I didn't really think I'd go any further, but obviously I did - and I am glad that I did.  Yes, it is a tad repetative and it would be perfect with a series of coloured pictures as Jezzi suggests - (any chance?), but all in all it is very sexy and quite exciting.   It was fairly obvious that makeup and clothes would follow and that kiss at the end of part four sounds really exciting. Try to write faster though - over a year to do four parts is positively lazt.

Comment by Annabel on 07/07/04
After part 4.  I really like the way the story is developing.  The pace is about right and there are very few typos that I have noticed.
I am looking forward to the next installment.

Comment by Jezzi Stewart on 07/03/04
After part 2:
    I wish this were illustrated with Karen's pictures!  How about extensions so he could have long hair fast, and how about more intervention from Margot's mom.  Will makeup and nails be added?  Keep up the good work.

Comment by Jessica on 05/25/04
Excellent start!

As the others say, I like the fact that you are taking a steady pace, keeping the story fairly credible and not rushing into sex.

Could we have more description of the style he has now and how he feels about it? Is he going to wear it home?

Looking forward to pt 2.

Comment by Pervette on 05/23/04
I agree with the others, with one exception: your punctuation needs
work, especially with dialogue & the placement of quotation marks
& commas.  But otherwise, yes, I agree that it's an engaging story
with good avoidance of the obvious.  I'll be interested to see how
it plays out.

Comment by Jezzi Stewart on 05/23/04
I love hair stories!  You go, girl!  I'm with Angel on the repetative bit, but otherwise I can't wait for part 2.  One thing, please don't turn this into a sexfest.  I've seen a lot of good story starts ruined because the author thought, "Oh, they want, sex." and forgot about the story and just wrote sex scenes.

Comment by Tawni on 05/23/04
wonderful start...the pace is good,no need to rush....like a flower slowly openning.....i can't wait for more.......Tawni

Comment by Angel O'Hare on 05/22/04
Nice first effort! A little repetative in some places, like his mantra "what-ever-you-say"

I will wait till part two is posted before commenting further. Overall I like it and it show promise of becoming a good story.

An impressive first effort!
