Short hair and being an MtF

[Mahsa Tezani]

I love my long hair. It took me 3 years to grow it and I think it looks classically feminine. But I have an intense admiration for the latest round of short hairstyle...pixie cuts, assymetrical cuts, etc. I passed as female with short hair, so it's no surprise I am considering going short again.


So how many of you have short hair and do you think it makes transgirl "andro" or what?

[MsDazzler]

I have been growing my hair from a total shave for 1.5 years now, and it is down to my chin, all in crazy curls. I love it but want to grow it even longer.

You should try to aim to grow your hair out to waist length first then donate it to Locks of Love.

I would love a shortish feminine style but with my current position in transition I probably couldn't pull it off, hopefully a few years down the line and I'll be good to go with short styles.

It depends on the face if it'll looks androgynous, I've only seen one transgirl with proper short hair whom passed quite well. But then she's the only person I can think of with it short, so meh.

This was my pixiecut as a boy:

[Joeyboo~ :3]

Jealous of women with small ass faces.

I can't pass(not in person) with short hair.
It bothers me a lot since I love short hair on women.

As an owner of an asymmetrical pixie, I can vouch for its general awesomeness.

I think it gives people a non-feminine quality which I find really sexy. :]

I've seen your face and you have smallish bone structure.

Basically what Rebekah said.

I lub my short hair.

Cheating is fun. I highly recommend it.

Any Mtf who has a short hair cut is detracting from their ability to pass. I believe you might be an exception. Did you have low testosterone levels when you were male?

Thanks

They can check hormone levels? I had no idea.

I haven't started hrt yet. I went to get a blood test. The doctor told me I have the normal male hormones.

The doctor would have been monitoring your hormone levels while you were transitioning silly!

Maybe after ffs I'll be able to pull off short hair. But even if I could, I wouldn't cut my hair short. That's not really my style. It looks good on you though.

You look good with long hair IMHO.


I will probably get my body in shape before I do the "do". My frame went a little thick the past 2 months and need to get back into shape. Boyfriend hates it already though...

I believe there is nothing wrong with an MTF with short hair. If I were to accidentally have my hair cut short but I wanted it long, I would wear a wig.

I think short hair, if done right, can make a woman look great. Not only that but the confidence boost it can give a woman who can pull it off is tremendous. I've seen some very pretty women with short hair, although they were biological female. I'm sure a transgirl could pull off short hair too they will just need to play around with the different hair styles and find one that is suited to them. In my personal opinion any female that decides to cut off their hair and still has that confidence is extremely sexy. Shows she is not afraid of trying different things and is comfortable with herself.

On that note, I'm a biological female and I had my hair cut off to about jaw length last winter. I also had it layered but the point is people liked it. I let it grow out then shaved it off into a faux hawk before thanksgiving. Donated to locks of love. 

Anyway point is if you go short be sure you like it and rock it! Confidence goes a long way whether your bio female or trans-woman.

I love short asymmetrical cuts. I have one, as can be seen in my avatar. I get gendered correctly occasionally, but it's still fairly hit and miss. I'm also still having electrolysis done. I'd say go for it.
These are way cute:









This one is cute too:

[MsDazzler]

Why is it that they all look emo? lol


Question - I have very curly hair so does it look good in a pixie cut?

[valyn_faer]

A couple of them look kind of emo, I guess. It depends on what you consider "emo."

Maybe it's just where I live, but I don't see why having short hair would be a big deal. I see a lot of women with short hair. Some with shorter hair than mine. Then again, there are also a lot of hairy hippy girls here too.
