My T has never commented on my appearance. I tend to wear a lot of different stuff, and whether I go smart or casual depends on what I've just been doing or am about to do. Near the beginning I would go in sometimes looking a bit of a mess, but she never commented. It doesn't really bother me that she doesn't mention what I look like, I'm sure she takes it into consideration in her judgement of me, but chooses not to say anything. Once she mentioned that I was attractive, which is a nice comment to make, but I didn't feel like I needed her to say that.
It's interesting seeing what other T s make of their client's appearance. I have wondered whethere she would pass comment if I came in with purple hair or just in a bikini, but my feeling is that she would just smile and carry on!
