tlah 40 Posted May 6, 2013 Bring your make up with you. If your staying a few days in hospital it makes you feel good and its something you have control over. I also had my hair done the day before remember if you look good you feel good I'm on day 4 post op I feel fabulous I followed my surgeon's rules so it made it easier for him which made a huge difference for me no gas pains after surgery. Much love blessings to you all 3 HatheryOnHerWay, newlife27 and lonestarstategal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
devichan 79 Posted May 6, 2013 That's a good idea... I think I'll get my hair dyed again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
No game 14,437 Posted May 6, 2013 I must of looked like ****! I hate makeup and don't wear it.. And I like my grey hair! I'm excited about getting more because my nana was a beautiful woman with long grey hair and I want to be just like her. Oh but face wash was good to bring and I have long hair so a hair tie to put it up was a must Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
abetterme4.2 268 Posted May 6, 2013 I'm with Laura. I must have looked like a hot mess. I did not do my makeup while I was in the hospital. I brushed my hair, showered and personal hygiene, but I did not pull out makeup. I felt fine about it. Lol. My mind was more on recovery and walking laps. 1 No game reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Momonanomo 534 Posted May 6, 2013 Thats so funny- my mom is a southern belle & had double knee replacement a couple years ago. The second they brought her to her room from recovery after surgery, she was demanding her lipstick. She was still all high from anesthesia and/or pain meds, and her hair was all jacked up, but she had her lipstick on so all was right in the universe 3 Ms.AntiBand, ejimenez and Firëfly reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ms.AntiBand 2,984 Posted May 6, 2013 Yeah.. I'm a make-up and perfume gal, too. Just always have been and will probably do my own before my funeral, too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kulita 243 Posted May 6, 2013 I wish I could have done this. To be honest I was constantly checked on by the Team (which is great) and was forced to walk and sip sip sip. Topping that off was a room mate witch who was having mental issues on why I wouldn't talk to her. It is a good idea though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FlikschiK 14 Posted May 6, 2013 I will for sure have to have my makeup & perfume... That is a staple for most us Southern Ladies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkinnyScrapper 57 Posted May 6, 2013 That's a good idea... I think I'll get my hair dyed again! I was thinking about having a hair dye before surgery today. I am not big on makeup, but lipstick and may be some blush would be nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kat78 24 Posted May 6, 2013 I don't wear make up. Makes me look too fake. I will however get my hair cut and my purple highlights before surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stefaniwg 172 Posted May 6, 2013 Maybe it is a southern thing because I'm all about my hair and makeup! I will be having my hair dyed and maybe a Brazilian blow out before the surgery (I have really curly hair and if its not tended too properly it will look like a rats nest!).

Kat78 24 Posted May 6, 2013 Well, I grew up on a farm and I am more of a tomboy. It takes me 5 mins to get ready after my shower. Add makeup, damn looking at 15-20 mins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
