The before and after thread.

Wow, and double wow Jennygirl.

What a difference!
I would not believe it was you before.

Yes growing a beard in less than a week is a nasty thing, I always hated it.
It's so good to have it gone for good or nearly, you look fantastic and give me hope when I start the magic pills.
You make me even more determined to do what I have to do so I hope to post some pics before and after soon.

Ever thought of purple hair? It does look good on me?

Ahhh Jenny! You look great! I remember another "before" you posted a whole ago, but this is such an awesome example of where you came from. And just 5 months! Only gonna get more purdy!

She is a purdy one for sure! Wonder who the dorky looking guy is? 

[Jennygirl]

Thanks everyone! It gets weirder and weirder seeing my old photos. I guess I shouldn't be surprised when people I haven't seen in a long while don't even recognize me. It's really funny and a huge affirmation when a friend reintroduces themselves as if we've never met. I never really know what to say, so I usually smile uncontrollably and stare at them for a while thinking it will click. Lately, though, that hasn't even been working.

Shantel- that dorky guy is a distant memory to me now. The only thing I have left to remind me of him is parts of my voice, but in about a week even that will be just a figment of the past for me and everyone that knew me before. I leave for Korea in 7 days!

Hope it's a nice trip and that you have a fabulous outcome!

Looking great Carolina 

[Joanna Dark]

That is quite the change Caroline. Looking beautiful. Congratulations!

[Joanna Dark]

You made a cute guy. lol 

I was thinking the same thing but didn't say anything lol

[Jamie D]

Though you may still be swollen, I'd love to see a picture with a smile 

[Rowan Rue]

Carolina - You look fab darlin'  Glad to see you looking so much happier too.  Hope that's not just a trick of the light and things really are going better for you

Jenny - Seriously, I couldn't believe it when you showed me that pic.  I honestly wasn't sure if you were showing a reference pic of someone else for "facial hair growth/laser effectiveness" reference or if it was actually a photo of you.
Amaze.

[Rowan Rue]

Guess I'll play again too

Rowan you foxy lady! Who's the tough guy?

Haha, thanks Shan   I've been looking through old photos from shoots I've done with actual photogs in studio, i.e good photo's of me pre transition.  I think I actually caught myself thinking "damn, he's kinda hot" for a second I've disassociated myself from that guy so much.

He sorta is, though. In a Johnny Depp/Robert Downey Jr sort of way.
You turned out well, Rowan.

After (5 months 5days HRT)

Rowan, I think you could cosplay as Samantha Carter from Stargate SG-1:

[ZoeM]

@Keaira: Ooooh, she could! That's pretty darn close.

[Rowan Rue]

Rowan, I think you could cosplay as Samantha Carter from Stargate SG-1:

And while nothing to do with the character specifically, I do have an egyptian tattoo!
I'd need to go a more natural blonde though.

[AnarchoChloe]

Wow, Rowan, you have had an amazing change. I really dig your hair.
