taking the plunge

[Elanore joey]

so after last weekend when i went out shopping as full fem, im full of confidence and this week end i plan on going swimming. i am used to wearing a 1 piece as i have previously done open water swimming wearing triathlon 1 piece. i was just hoping to get some advice going swimming as a female.
btw i have a swimmdress

[kariann330]

To help stay tucked wear a tight pair of panties under your swimsuit, or even a gaff...and have fun.

[Elanore joey]

i dont have much to tuck anyway lol but that is 1 of the reasons i chose a swimdress (also hides any unwanted bulge)

[kariann330]

Well then all i can say is smile, have fun and don't try to go under with makeup on....it really burns when it gets in your eyes lol.

[Elanore joey]

I'll try and smile but I really don't know about make up
swimming and make up  does'nt mix with me cuz I spend more time under water than above but I really conciess about my facial hair (folicals)

Keep in mind, water is awful for the hair. That's why you don't see very many women going completely under. Not to mention, wet hair is harder to pass in.

I'm a beauty school drop out, lol... I know what water does to the hair. Especially chlorinated or untreated water...

Can't you girls just treat your hair the Same night after you get out of the water?

[Alainaluvsu]

No. The hair needs oil and if you keep washing that oil out every night (if it's not oily, of course), then you will rob your hair of those oils and make it more susceptible to damage.

[xchristine]

Aww I can't even take any sun...
Before it was ladingy face....and now I started
Full body lasing....no sun until next summer...
Sniffle sniffle

Yeah you did, no lie if my hair gets wet and i don't have any conditioner im brushing out knots and tangles. If i shampoo without conditioner i can start up some pretty good dreads. It really sucks and makes me jealous of the people who can skip the conditioner and detangler all together.

First nothing is garanteed to help hair growth but certain things can help certain people  such as the obviouse of a balanced diet , soya food can help, morrocan oil and also your hair growth cycle has 3 stages to it anogen which is growth can last upto 7 years but every hair is different, second is catogen which means the folicle is resting this last for upto 6 weeks and finally telogen which don't be alarmed because it happens with out you knowing, this where your hair falls out. Each follicale is in this stage for about 2 weeks and then after that you get new hair growth.
It also depends on how long you have been on hrt as estrogen really helps hair growth

Ouch. Hair, on average, grows 1/2 an inch a month. Eating lots of protein helps hair grow faster because hairs main content is keratin (a protein). Biotin and pre natal vitamins also help. High estradiol levels help too. Lastly, daily scalp massages stimulates the dermal papilla into producing hair faster due to increased blood flow.

But unfortunately, it'll probably still take quite some time to grow out long hair if that's what you're looking for. Like I said, on average hair grows 1/2" per month. My hair has always grown fast at 3/4" to almost an inch a month. Careful with your E levels, however... high E increases hair follicle density and if / when they come down to normal, you're actually subject to postpartum type alopecia. My E was in the 1400 range last month and my E dose was cut in half, and I'm losing quite a bit of hair.

Do you shampoo everyday?

I shampoo everyday. Rarely condition. Haven't noticed any issues except for when it's kind of windy tangles are inevitable. 

I feel like I', going to get a response that I shouldn't shampoo every morning...

Perhaps you have hair that's just extremely oily. A lot of guys I know shower everyday, but none of the girls I know. But then, we do have guy hair... Texture wise at least.
