I'm so happy and excited but recently had a conversation with my electrolysis clinician about ffs horror stories. So I'm sorta on the fence. I love myself and am unsure of how essential the surgery is. Do you think I need it. I'm considering brow work and hairline.

To be honest I could see how you might benefit from hairline from the photo on the bottom. Besides that I think you are very attractive and I wouldn't really take the chance on the brows.

I think you look amazing and the real question may be how do you feel? For example, I found that my flat chest was bothering me a little but when I wore breast forms, I glowed.
So if you feel off when you view areas of hair, you may want to address it.
I would love to not have to shave my face, but my research indicates a long, repetitive, painful, expensive process. It doesn't seem that way to some others, though.
My hair is thin on top. My face and body hair are easily hidden with regular foundation but sometimes I use color corrector if I want to look more polished. I hope estradiol slows the growth even more and I have very little body hair. If I has a lot of dark body hair, I might choose differently
