Don't judge a book by its cover! My lifes been like a country song! True love, amazing grace, severe heartbreak, buckles, boots n spurs! I 've been thrown off the bull a couple times, I keep getting up and dusting myself off! Can't give up on my happily ever after!

I am now officially in the awkward phase! :D
I had the excellent idea to get a haircut first, and then go shopping for a bit to have my first "test" in dealing with people as openly trans. At first people were looking at me all funny and staring, and I felt a bit insecure. But then I was like "you know what? I have a better haircut than all of you!" and walked proudly through the city and smiled at people that looked at me and stuff. Suddenly, a hell of a lot less staring!

Anyway, I didn't get the point cut as suggested earlier. I just did it even for now (with layers though) because I can easily go from this to a point cut if I didn't like the result, but the other way around would've been much harder. Good thing I decided to do so because I LOVE the result!


^me starting to fail at boymode, not quite succeeding at girlmode yet, but it's a start! :D

I love it! You look great! I hope you feel as great as you look! I did the same thing you did when I cut my hair,  took it out for a test run. Its funny how if you are confident you get less stares, I noticed that too on my adventure. We all start somewhere, we can be awkward stage together!

now try a v neck tee or sweater to add length under your face and expose some skin like most girls.  every little change helps you along.

I can't do that yet because I have acne all over my chest. I'm really hoping HRT will fix that little problem ... for now I have to cover my body up very well, only my lower arms and lower legs can be exposed. Everything else is hideous.

OIC.  Acne may disappear as your transition worries decrease.

Oh wow, that looks great on you :)

She layered it pretty well! I'd texturize the bottom of it just a hair.. but it looks wonderful the way it is :) Not what I had in mind exactly but it does look good !!
