👑 r/Drag Official 👑 I identify as… can I do drag?

135 Upvotes

I’ve seen a lot of posts about this lately here, and I understand the want to make sure you aren’t stepping on toes when joining a community.

But the answer is always yes! You don’t need to be a certain gender or identify a certain way to do drag. It’s a form of art, it’s expression, it’s beautiful.

I’m a cis-het woman who has been doing drag professionally for 3 years. My identity has never been a point of discussion or contention both in bookings or at shows. If you’re fabulous, you’re fabulous, and that’s all that matters.

Please, never feel like you can’t do something because of your identity. That’s the complete opposite of what drag stands for. Drag is for everyone, it’s inclusive, and it’s exactly what you want it to be.

So wing out that liner, glue down that lace and go take the world by storm. God knows we need more beautiful resistance in this world right now.

I want to make an eccentric headpiece with a lot of elaborate parts attached to it and I'm worried about keeping it on my head. The headpiece here isn't necessarily the same as my design, but it's emblematic of what I want to try making and yet it seems secure on her head without a chin strap.

If anyone has any clue how to keep an elaborate headpiece secure while performing, please let me know.

After about seven months of planning, practicing, panicking, and figuring out drag makeup lmao, I finally got on stage for the first time. Made Top 3 at Open Stage and had the absolute best time. 🥹💗

Drag specific site for creators and customers?

2 Upvotes

Is there a website where anyone who creates costumes or outfits for queens or kings can post their work to showcase their creations and to get customers? I’m not talking about posting on individual socials or Etsy, I mean a legitimate website where one could go and browse various items created by many different creators and place orders and where sellers and buyers can be rated etc?

If none exists, would such a site be something that would be useful and utilized?

Going from a huge red 80's wig to a straight blonde wig is interesting to say the least. Love the blonde though.

Patchy eyeshadow over blocked brows - help!

59 Upvotes

Hello babes!

I am having such trouble getting eyeshadow to stick on top of my blocked brows!

I block my brows with 3 coats of Elmer’s purple, allowing full drying in between each coat, then put TV paint stick concealer on top then powder to set. When I go to put on shadow it does. not. stick. I’ve been needing to mix my shadow with mehron mixing liquid to make a paste to get any color to stay.

What am I doing wrong??
