I finally got around to uploading a few photos...think I can pass one day?  Honesty is most appreciated!

Well, you look pretty adorable already, so I don't anticipate that passing will be very difficult for you. You could possibly pass already if you had a cute hairstyle and some make-up.

I want to say that you're lucky, but I feel old when I call people lucky for these sorts of good looks. I have to remind myself that I'm still a teenager.

I think it's my forehead that gives me away. I'm seeing a therapist now...not on hormones yet. Could I pass?

Why don'tcha buy yourself a wig and see what you'll look like in fifteen months? I have a feeling you'll pass just fine.

My nose and profile is a dead give away i think. All I see, makeup or no makeup is a man in the mirror...
I'm nearly two weeks on HRT. What do you think about my future?

You look like a woman to me.

Not fifteen months, but I thought I'd try.

You (do with wig/will with natural hair) pass just fine.

I don't see a problem with your nose I think you look great! And I think your future looks bright! Your only two weeks in its going to take time but slowly you'll notice changes. I look like a different person now than I was at two weeks. In a couple of months your going to look back on these pictures in amazement of how much different you look!

Thank you sooo much!  Definitely getting a bit more confident about this!  Any recommendation to what I can do with my hair, or how I can put together a basic makeup kit?

There's not a whole lot you can do with your hair right now, given its length. Unless you want to buy a wig, you'll just have to wait until it grows out a bit.

Make-up is a bit more standard. You'll want foundation, eyeliner, and mascara as your absolute basics, with lipstick, lip liner, primer, and eye-shadow being introduced as you see necessary. There are youtube videos for this sort of thing, and they can go into more depth than I can - covering things like using different shades to accentuate or de-accentuate features, detailed instructions on how to do your eye make-up, and different styles of doing so, and all that sort of thing.

I hope hormones are in the near future for you. You are cute, but they will make the passing job more successful, and easier.

I disagree. You may want to eventually make changes to your nose and profile but I don't think you need to do that to pass. I'm in the same boat with regards to wanting to remodel the nose!

Hi eloij 

I really don't see any issues with your nose or profile    You actually have a rather cute nose and have a lot of feminine features to begin with 

My recommendation would be to give the HRT time to do it's work before making any decisions regarding getting any FFS done

Hi eloij I don't see any real issue with your nose or profile. I think you'll turn out great. May main thought would be to purchase a more unisex, or even better, a really cute pair of glasses when you get the chance.

You are your own worst enemy, your side profile at lest in those images is quite something else compared to most of us.  Your head and features have a nice shape to it.

I see a girl there, Eloj.

You look fine. If you have any doubts, just go back a couple of pages until you see my ugly mug staring back at you. Guaranteed to make you feel better about yourself.

Could this ugly mug be passable one day? Please, don't quote, I am going to delete the pic in a couple of days! Thanks!

Not the best picture, but you already have a decidedly feminine presentation.

Well, it is a picture taken while holding my cell at arm's length ... LOL But, it is me, the real me, at work, just the way I am, no professional shot, no make-up, no photo-shopping, no glamour shot (obviously!!! LOL). The same goes for the picture in my Avatar. I took it myself with my cell phone, as well.

In total honesty, what do you see in the Pictures, a man or a woman? Or something in between? I am inerested because I am living full time, even at work and I wonder what people really think...

Thanks in advance,
Andrea
