Title: My sister came around?
Post by: Berren on June 09, 2010, 11:28:37 AM
When I was outed to one of my sisters(a couple of weeks ago), she pretty much didn't want anything to do with me, but she said hello to me earlier today, and asked me about a new game I got, essentially we're back on talking terms. Even if I'm not sure how supportive she is of me being trans, it's a start.
My other sister, who doesn't know, took me to her hairdresser too. She was so friendly. She didn't charge me for the cut, but I bought some hair wax/gel stuff from her instead. I didn't expect to get it cut this soon either, so that's pretty awesome. Dad said it looked too short though, and that I needed some eye make-up or big earrings. Pff >:|
anyway, I few shots I just took:

I think this cut definitely helps.  Short and messy--cute too. :)

Hey, it looks great and awesome to your sister coming around too.

Also if you want to increase your chances of your haircut helping you pass if you could just trim the pointy end off those sideburns and square them off, no one in your family you probably notice and it will make a big difference between it looking like a masculine cut instead of feminine.

Huzzah! Glad your sister seems to be coming around. And your hair looks really awesome too! Heh and I agree with Elijah on your dad's opinion. :laugh:

Carson; I actually do shave the sideburn parts so that they are sort of square, but there is usually a longer piece of hair that will cover it up. I'll trim those bits off tomorrow. :>
Elijah; Yeah, I guess it is. :) He always teases me by calling me girly/babyish names too haha.

Now I just need to save up a bit more for some better clothes.

I second what Carson said about the pointed bits, square those off and you'll pass better.  It's a really nice cut though!

Wow, it's amazing what a difference a haircut can make!  You look great. :)  I agree though about trimming the edges.
