This makeover is just… — 63 Comments
Sorry, no sale.
She looks 1000% better. I love it!
Lots of articles on how to fit a bra and more…
could you run a series on the proper fit of a jockstrap?
Cause really, that would interest your female readers as much as how to fake your looks to get more out of life you wouldnt get otherwise..
well, i want to know, how to get the most out of jockstraps and maybe cups
its only equality in action…
like the news in the morning thats now a talk show and endless secreat adverts for music, and shows and more..
no news. women dont do news. its icky

Rubbish. She could probably benefit from some weight loss. (Which is challenging, to be sure). You get to a certain age, you just have to adjust. In her case, proper eyewear (lenses not oversized), flat (non-descript) shoes, slacks and top. The top can have a a pattern if the colors are right. If not, solid. Soft, neutral color. And a hat, nothing too frou-frou and cool it on the brim. Dresses at that age are church clothes or Christmas dinner. If you’ve got some extra weight or are past a certain age, your arms should be covered and most of your legs as well. And, again, no hair color.
You could see “before” that her face was quite attractive, and just needed some make-up to smooth out the complexion. Shorter hair was definitely needed, but why does this guy always seem to opt for cuts that look like they’ve never been combed?
I know: it’s an “illusion” and “the” style, but it looks unkempt to me.
Same with the 5-o’clock-shadow-all-day on men.
And get off my lawn.

Sadly, a lot of women resist that adjustment to increased age and size.
Dresses that look good on skinnies and / or teens will NOT look good on them, I don’t care how attractive they are otherwise.
You could cut the hair some, but it’s a satisfactory length.
Any kind of makeup is seldom advisable.
I concur that she looks great after the make-over. It takes a bit of learning to keep the same look, but, even if she can maintain a small amount of the hairstyle and make-up changes, she will continue to feel great about herself.
Art Deco – since you know how to look up styles, could you perhaps help ArtFldger how to find the correct cup/jock strap size. I hope that Neo posts only what she wants to post – I enjoy the makeovers, dress reviews and dances. Life doesn’t have to be 24/7 news.
And guys – there are a lot of you out there that have also forgotten to look good for yourself and others.
Liz:
That would be TMI, choices are S, M, L, (it’s the waist size BTW).
Enough neo!
Fly to the Twin Cities and do it.
(And you know you want it.)
Ok om…now that was funny…that little parenthetical.
Thanks for clearing that up for the uninformed.
I’ll stick with my standard…haircut’s nice…new clothes could have been done in a decent shop with a knowledgeable attendant.
The colour & excess spackling to hide her well-earned wrinkles…meh.
And as always…why the exhibitionism?
She seems a lovely lady…why is she on YouTube?
She’s old enough to have been taught as a child that you keep family business within the family. Ok…you had your 15 minutes.
She looks better, feels better about herself, and her daughter loves it, too. Those who don’t enjoy seeing an older woman happier about herself could just not look.
My wife is 65.
She wears no makeup.
15 yrs ago she lost 150 pounds through sheer will power.
So her skin sags.
If she’s tired and sad, she could look better.
We went to see a big band performance Tuesday night at a friend’s restaurant.
And she smiled and lit up my world.
I took her picture while she was not aware and posted it.
So many compliments.
This woman you show frowns and then smiles in the makeover.
The smile is half the battle.
Neo posts something someone doesn’t like and he has an un-he like hissy fit. Relax dude, it’s not all about what you like.
Oh, cool: a fluffy “I want to talk to the manager” hair-do.
Art Deco:
“That remark earns you a slap across the mouth.”
What is that, humor? Doesn’t read that way. Don’t be an …
Art,
I bet you’re a lot of fun at parties.
“The smile is half the battle.”
This. 1000X this. And it’s free.
I had a high school teacher…public school in Texas no less…who used to say, “If the love of Jesus has found its way to your heart, can some of His joy find its way to your face.”
I retired in 2008. It burns me that no one has replaced me. Sri Lanka? I would have told you about that like sun rise and sun set.
Fantastic improvement. She came in frumpy, came out looking good (for 60, or even 55). Her sister is, rightfully, a bit jealous — looks a bit better than the before shot, but in the same frumpy style.
Even the natural nice looking daughter is on her way to frumpy / comfy.
The bright cool green dress would have made the before picture better, especially with more smiles.
The longer before bottom curls on the hair were rather sad — likely cute sexy at 20-30, and still OK for 40, but no longer so good by 50 with a bit too much weight. The short kinda-wild fluffy look is much better.
It’s great great great that she can feel she looks good. (again) Will make it easier to smile with self confidence.
om wins: (it’s the waist size BTW).
And another thing, Neo is running a blog not a 24/7 news channel.
I confess to not understanding how jock straps even work, or what they’re supposed to do. I get cups – my kids played baseball. But a jock strap looks like a bra for the ol’ meat and two veg, and ISTM many kinds of underwear would do that job more comfortably. (Not boxers. But boxer briefs, yes.)
Of course, I’m not equipped to test comfort for such, and my husband, having been a swimmer in his athletic youth, can only inform me about Speedos.
The jock is for support of your junk to keep your balls particularly from swinging into harm or even becoming damaged by excessive bounce (like a sports bra does for your tits while jogging) while at the same time being as unrestrictive as possible for running and stretching. Hence, it’s little more than a pouch for your junk and a waistband to hold it on.
Regarding this post, however, the separation between men and women is obvious. I could not care less about this video and didn’t click and only visited the comments to see if other men felt the same way. “Makeovers” leave me cold, plus they don’t last, once that lady takes a shower and changes clothes she’s back to her old self. Kinda like yoyo dieting.
Art, I think you have only one kind of makeover in mind.
No, I don’t. That woman is overexposed. And it’s generally inadvisable to have on anything but flat shoes when you’re out in public.
Again, Less is More. Solid colors by default; jewelry limited to your wedding ring, your engagement ring, and maybe a locket; no makeup other than Clearasil; glasses of proper dimensions (not contacts); flat shoes in public unless you’re training or you’re Melania Trump. Remember that cocktail dresses are for women who are still fertile and miniskirts are never proper. Blouse and skirt ensembles require a jacket or a sweater; 1950s coeds could look like a million $ in just a blouse and skirt, but it’s not been done since. Hair is just hair; it’s not a canvas and not sculpture. It should be properly cut, and that means below the ears for women with straight hair.
I bet you’re a lot of fun at parties.
What would I be doing at parties at my age? You want fun, you’re going to have to get it from the younger generations. I’m maxed out.
Art Deco fancies himself the fashion police in these makeover threads. We’ve walked this road before.
docweasel:
No need for you to care about makeovers or watch them.
But a lot of women actually report back that after the makeover they keep the style. Obviously they’re not going to be in full makeup every day (nor would that necessarily be appropriate), but they wear it sometimes and generally in their everyday life they sustain the tips and the things they’ve learned.
I’m often surprised at the level of hostility to these makeover videos. I can’t imagine caring that much either way, but I find them fun and I have happily worn makeup (not every day, but often) my entire life and it looks quite natural. I’ve always had an interest in hair and fashion, although not an overwhelming one. Big deal; why should anyone else care one way or another if someone has an interest in it, as long as they don’t look bizarre or clownlike?

And I’m better at it than Melissa Rivers.
Neo,
Please don’t let the hostility keep you from posting the makeover videos.
This last one had me thinking about a perm for the first time in 30 years!
Molly Brown:
Oh, I won’t stop. If I let hostility stop me I’d have given up blogging a long long time ago.
I too like the makeover videos. And that shortish, curly, care-free-looking hairstyle is great on a lot of women, and perhaps particularly on the more “mature” types — such as me. Or it would be, if I could get to the hairdresser more often than once a year. :>((
Keep ’em coming, Neo!
I’d like to see one of these where he doesn’t do the crunchy-scrunchy hair, because I could never be bothered to try and keep that kind of sculpture going on every day, plus it doesn’t move or shine. I’m this woman’s age and the first thing I thought was that she actually had a lot of thick, shiny hair for her age—wish I had that much. If she were my friend I’d have advised hair coloring for sure, and some kind of bangs to deal with the high forehead (receding hairline?), but maybe leave the hair shiny and bouncy with an above-the-shoulder cut and some layering. She has big-time worry creases between her eyebrows; botox would work wonders.
Get up an hour earlier and you can look much girlier.
Denver, a question for my lady friends. If I have any. If I have an any does a pine cone make a sound when it falls in a forest. If you are not around to hear it, does it make a sound?

If you were a good friend and not a catty saboteur, you wouldn’t recommend dye or layering. Suggesting Botox is a tell, and if she has any brains she’d know at that point that you didn’t wish her well.
Art Deco:
Wouldn’t your agree that what she needs is piercings, gauge rings for the ears, tattoos, and yes, a purple Mohawk. After all to suggest otherwise is to be a catty female canine (how’s that for mixed species metaphors?) who doesn’t friend well? And what about sensible shoes? You are the authority after all.
“Oh, I won’t stop. If I let hostility stop me I’d have given up blogging a long long time ago.”
I hope the man who is married to you knows how lucky he is to have found you, Because this made me laugh. I won’t say you are perfect. I will stop short of that. Close. Close. Definitely worth a port visit to Haifa.

Are all Jewish girls as bold as you? I grew up in an eclectic neighborhood which included Jews but was heavily weighted toward the Chinese.
OK, Jewish people. It’s time. It’s time for you to let us Italians cater the passover Seder because your food, well, is not good.
Steve57:
No bagels and lox for you!!
Ah, but have you ever tasted Sephardic Jewish food?
No, as a matter of fact, NEO, I haven’t eaten Sephardic Jewish food. As far as I know. Are Sephardic Jews like my Italian grandma? Who would waddle up to me saying, “You a too skinny! Mangia (eat) mangia!”
And BTW I like bagels and lox so I need to inform you it’s a violation of the 8th Amendment to deny me them.
I doubt we’re going to fight over the BBQ pork buns, Cha Siu Bao. Because, Science!
“8 Year Old Girl Impersonates Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez”
Nobody does twenty years in the Navy, or any armed service I would gamble, without a sense of humor. Thank you, Neo.
You want to know what words I’m sick of? “Thank you for your service.” It’s right up there with Toby Kieth’s “Proud to Be an American” which for the first few times when the carrier returned to port was cute. But after ten years it was nauseating.
I’m going to let you in on a secret. Just between you and me and the internet.
I had my own selfish reasons for serving. Once or twice a year I got to return home via the Air Mobility Command courtesy of Yokota and Travis AFBs Note how I’m going for jointness here; I haven’t brought in my USMC DI or the kind souls I encountered at Camp Casey, 2nd ID, second to none.
But I got to come back every once in a while and hold the reason I served in my hands.
Stev57:
I know someone who used to walk around with a peach pit in his pocket for when his grandmother would urge him to have something to eat. He’d reach into his pocket and hold up the pit, indicating that he’d just eaten something.
Here are some Sephardic cookbooks: this and this. Plenty more where those came from.
You are, as always, an angel. I mean it in the Hebrew sense. A messenger from God. Do you know a nice Jewish girl I should look out for? Already have someone on my six on the Iranian side.
Zurkaneh. Zurkanay. You say tomatoy. I say tomatoe. No matter how you spell it in English zur equals power. Kanesh equals house therefore Zurkaneh equals the house of power.

Maybe I didn’t make it to the right Passover dinner.
Jews, can you at least serve food?
Steve57, your UT short vid is amazing. Are you sure that is not the real AOC?
.
Neo, contrary to someone above, “Jewish” cooking is often awesome.
And though I never came across anything specifically labelled “Jewish Sephardic cooking,” I tend to be much in favor of foods from the Med and north Africa right across through Persia. So thanksabunch for the Sephardic cookbook links.
:>)))
Steve57:
A Passover dinner is a test of hunger endurance.
But it’s the four glasses of wine I just can’t do.
Nevertheless, a fabulous holiday.
Julie, I knew when I commented that I was inviting a response. Bring it on, Jews, here’s a goy who needs a fix of Gefilte fish. Maybe a little Manischewitz to,wash it down with. Sure, it’s not good wine. But it will work.
As the oily, greasy, olive picking eye-tie tells you in the video you can’t trust any of us.
“A Passover dinner is a test of hunger endurance.”
Yeah, thanks. You could have warned us.
Sincerely the rest of the world that isn’t Jewish and was expecting dinner.
Uck, leave the gefilte, take the smoked sable.
Steve57:
I absolutely agree that it’s good to warn people. A good rule of thumb is to remember that the seder is a ceremonial meal. And, like Scarlett O’Hara before the barbecue, it’s good to eat some before you even get there.
I don’t know how to inform you of this. But I know the seder is a ceremonial meal. And you still put a smile on my face. You apparently can’t help it.
All Italians know. It’s part of the joke. Same corporation, different divisions.
I know you know. All it takes is one seder and a person knows. I’m talking about in general, people really should be told, for their first time.
I think once I was somewhere where they started the meal at around 1 AM.
Sorry, no sale.

Most of it has to do with heavy-duty makeup techniques — you can watch the makeover guy’s own mother doing it at “The Makeover Guy’s mom, 78, shows us the incredible transformation she undergoes – every day”
It also looks as if there’s some temporary tape-like face lifting going on at around the .20 point.
I think maybe we see a man and a woman in love with how they were in high school or college. And now the makeover is needed to break the gridlock.
I want back skin in the game.

“8 Year Old Girl Impersonates Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez”
Nobody does twenty years in the Navy, or any armed service I would gamble, without a sense of humor. Thank you, Neo.
You want to know what words I’m sick of? “Thank you for your service.” It’s right up there with Toby Kieth’s “Proud to Be an American” which for the first few times when the carrier returned to port was cute. But after ten years it was nauseating.
I’m going to let you in on a secret. Just between you and me and the internet.
I had my own selfish reasons for serving. Once or twice a year I got to return home via the Air Mobility Command courtesy of Yokota and Travis AFBs Note how I’m going for jointness here; I haven’t brought in my USMC DI or the kind souls I encountered at Camp Casey, 2nd ID, second to none.
But I got to come back every once in a while and hold the reason I served in my hands.

I know someone who used to walk around with a peach pit in his pocket for when his grandmother would urge him to have something to eat. He’d reach into his pocket and hold up the pit, indicating that he’d just eaten something.
Here are some Sephardic cookbooks: this and this. Plenty more where those came from.
You are, as always, an angel. I mean it in the Hebrew sense. A messenger from God. Do you know a nice Jewish girl I should look out for? Already have someone on my six on the Iranian side.

“IRAN – Traditional Persian Gyms (Zoorkhaneh)”
Zurkaneh. Zurkanay. You say tomatoy. I say tomatoe. No matter how you spell it in English zur equals power. Kanesh equals house therefore Zurkaneh equals the house of power.
Does anybody doubt me?

So nice I said it twice.

Maybe I didn’t make it to the right Passover dinner.
Jews, can you at least serve food?
Steve57, your UT short vid is amazing. Are you sure that is not the real AOC?
.
Neo, contrary to someone above, “Jewish” cooking is often awesome.
And though I never came across anything specifically labelled “Jewish Sephardic cooking,” I tend to be much in favor of foods from the Med and north Africa right across through Persia. So thanksabunch for the Sephardic cookbook links.
:>)))
Steve57:
A Passover dinner is a test of hunger endurance.
But it’s the four glasses of wine I just can’t do.
Nevertheless, a fabulous holiday.
Julie, I knew when I commented that I was inviting a response. Bring it on, Jews, here’s a goy who needs a fix of Gefilte fish. Maybe a little Manischewitz to,wash it down with. Sure, it’s not good wine. But it will work.
As the oily, greasy, olive picking eye-tie tells you in the video you can’t trust any of us.
“A Passover dinner is a test of hunger endurance.”
Yeah, thanks. You could have warned us.
Sincerely the rest of the world that isn’t Jewish and was expecting dinner.
Uck, leave the gefilte, take the smoked sable.
Steve57:
I absolutely agree that it’s good to warn people. A good rule of thumb is to remember that the seder is a ceremonial meal. And, like Scarlett O’Hara before the barbecue, it’s good to eat some before you even get there.
I don’t know how to inform you of this. But I know the seder is a ceremonial meal. And you still put a smile on my face. You apparently can’t help it.
All Italians know. It’s part of the joke. Same corporation, different divisions.
I know you know. All it takes is one seder and a person knows. I’m talking about in general, people really should be told, for their first time.
I think once I was somewhere where they started the meal at around 1 AM.
sdferr, agreed. :>)
