Title: Resources in Melbourne Australia
Post by: rickkie on September 22, 2016, 08:17:48 PM
Hi,
I hope someone from my part of the world sees this.
I am in Melbourne Australia and beginning to transition. I am looking for some help in finding resources like trans friendly hair dressers and the like. Trans friendly beauty salon and of course Trans friendly clothing shops.

I am enjoying the journey and I know it is early days and all that but I am beginning to feel braver and letting my woman show :)

Thanks

I am glad you are enjoying the journey so far. Im also from melbourne. Unfortunately i dont know any trans friendly places but i haven't had any issues anywhere so far everyone seems pretty good about it. Once in a clothing store female cloths only i asked the assistant and she sure we dont have any issues with you using the changing rooms.
