[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone know of a consultant or company that will come to your house and talk to tween girls about skin care or show them how to apply basic makeup? Maybe teach how to do their hair? Does Sephora do this? Ulta? [/quote] Is this your idea or your dd? I can't imagine nothing more boring. Why not go bowling?[/quote] My girls would have loved this- bowling parties get boring with all the waiting. OP- I don't know of someone who does exactly what you are asking, but we have done spa parties. Girls did their own nails (but you can hire salon people too), face masks, make soaps or scrubs. All the girls had a ton of fun. I do think there are companies that will do this but we did it on our own. Lots of ideas on Pinterest. [/quote] This is pp. I was just giving one example. I didn't think I would have to type out more examples. If your kid doesn't like to do things..bowling, ice skating, hiking. scavenger hunts etc etc than I suppose getting a lecture on your future pimples and then made up to learn how to be "feminine" might appeal to you. But for regular pre-teens that would be really boring![/quote] Right, because it’s going to be lecture on future pimples. :roll: A girl in MS who is interested in makeup is a regular pre-teen the way girls that age who aren’t interested in makeup are also regular pre-teens. I know you think you’re making a feminist point here, but you are actually doing the opposite. Feminism is about women making choices for themselves and having those choices respected. If someone wants to wear makeup, have at it, you aren’t into makeup, more power to you. Fun fact, I have fraternal twin tween girls, one adores makeup and self care items, the other doesn’t want anything to do with it. It’s part of their individual personalities, and to each their own.
