I just found facial hair I never even knew I had, and you guys are the only people I think might appreciate that! :D
Since I had the sides clipped, I spotted in the mirror a noticeable edge where he trimmed around my ear. You can kinda see it here..

I guess it's a part of my face that I can only see properly myself using a camera or some odd arrangement of mirrors, so I took a closer look, and wondered how I never noticed before that I have actual side burns..!

More.. Neck fluff etc! (http://i44.tinypic.com/2na2s6t.jpg)
This would have worried me so much when I was still trying desparately to bury and hide my gender issues (from myself and others.), but wow. :D It's exciting now! I can't wait for T even more, to see these babies grow out. I was always aware of the moustache, but this is new and I do feel lucky to have natural fluff!
I'm guessing it must be due to the half-Iranian werewolf genes, I'm not sure that my T levels can be that high given my chest size and hips etc. Dunno though, I haven't had them checked yet. o:

Looks nice, Banf. Definitely noticeable up close and even in the further away shot. Should do great on T.

holy smokes, banf. I envy that hair and I'm on T lol.
I'm not sure that it's due to a high T level, I would guess it's more to do with your Iranian heritage. Your genes dictate how much hair you can potentially grow on T. For example an East Asian cis-male has normal male T levels but many cannot grow a full beard.

Very nice!
From a personal standpoint I'm not jealous, as I've never really pictured myself as hairy - my genes don't lean that way and neither does my aesthetic preference. I'm rather glad that I'm nearly hairless because it means I have a fair shot at being "just right" on T.
But since you're a man of Iranian heritage, I can totally see how that's awesome for you :) I dated a half-Persian guy for a while, and he was half-hairy, and even as a non-hair-lover I have to admit it was totally right for him.

You've just reminded me that I haven't shaved in weeks. Even at my level of fluffiness, I look scraggly.
Enjoy the fuzz!

It's funny, our mum is practically hairless, no eyebrows etc. Other odd thing is I only have a really light offering of arm hair, and my legs aren't particularly furry..
Cheers, Jay! :]

Yeah banf I have the same thing. :) Just shaved it recently so we'll see if it can grow back a bit more evenly. :P

Haha I just shaved mine too, I was curious how it'd grow back. :D The 'tash takes about a week to come back in fully, and that does seem to be growing a little more evenly each time, slowly recovering from years of being yanked out with tweezers I guess.

Always thought i was strange for secretly admiring my moustache in the mirror and wishing it was more noticable. Now i'm out its great cos i don't even have to make the pretense of shaving it, i can quite legitimately admire it

Exciting! I have had similar experiences with facial/body hair, due to being from hearty Germanic stock. However my ->-bleeped-<- abuser made me feel bad about it for years, particularly the mo. I really enjoy shaving my collection of chin hairs now. I have a feeling once I get some T in me I'm going to explode into a ball of hair. I was nicknamed werewolf in high school and have more leg/arm/armpit hair than my cis boy flatmate!
