Looks great to me, Kelsie.

Do you think the glasses help? I don't NEED glasses, but I could use them. I was thinking of getting a fashionable set especially if it added to my passing score...

Having D&D flashbacks here. "These glasses give me a +5 to femininity!"

Sorry for the graininess of the pictures but what do you guys think of how I'm starting to look? Guess it is time for another picture update. Also I've been presenting as male for almost a month as I just haven't been feeling all that well with dressing lately. I keep taking my hormones because I need to keep going forward and I will feel just terrible mentally and physically if I stop taking them. Well on the positive side I'm so happy I found this hat and I think I look real cute in it =^_^=

Here's my first attempt at passing! Thoughts?



It was a great champagne color dress, and you cant really see, but the ankle boots had a 5" heel. I've never taken hormones at this point, and have had no cosmetic surgery.

Pre-everything?!?!  Holy guacamole!  😮

Don't know if this is an overtly boyish/androgynous look, but it's the best one I could find (since I made a clean slate on my database recently). 18 years old and due to start the psychological evaluation process in about a month. Personally, I see no need to pluck my eyebrows even though they might come across as a little thick.

I think you already have andro down pat.  If your goal is feminization, I don't think you will have many problems.

Ditto that!

Haha I always thought like I present in the last 3 pics is boymode. Or let's say androgynous. People are sometimes not sure of my gender then. xD
Guess I should rly go FT hmm?

I think you already have, whether by choice or not....at least as far as looks go.

You really should. I agree with everyone else, I don't see a guy at all. Now stop posting in this thread and get over to the You Look Fabulous thread.

amy

Haha thank you very much
I always didn't feel confident enough for the fabulous thread, but I give it a try
Well maybe it s time for FT, my little brother always told me that people we know always ask him what phase I m going through Oo And that some are like afraid or something.

You don't need confidence for the fabulous thread - it generates it for you 🙂

Yep, no hormones, no FFS, nothing. I didn't really contour my face either, just a bit of blush/bronzed on the highest points of my apples. It's just me, a wig, some makeup, and a dress. Thank you for the compliment 🙂

Seconded!

So do I post my best or worst photos from the set? I went with my best.
I finally shaved my beard tonight and threw on this Halloween wig! No make up in these photos and no HRT yet.
I wish I could just go to work like this tomorrow

Since these kinda got buried under Jamie's post (and she has been well responded to) I thought I'd bring these back up...

You're looking lovely, Genzen... that is a lovely dress.  I would gently suggest you find a better wig before going out and working hard to pass, but you have a lovely, slender frame and I really think that with a little work with makeup you could really pull it off!  Remember, a HUGE part of passing is mannerisms and voice, so work on those too!

It might help if you can cultivate friendships with CIS females who will share their experiences and expertise... just by hanging around in the company of women I've picked up a *lot* 🙂

Thank you Robin, I was wondering if maybe everyone was taking if the if you can't say something nice then don't say anything at all approach 🙂

I don't think so... it was happening to me too, generally when someone else posted pics right after mine.  It just gets lost in the feed sometimes!

I would certainly not presume you were a man if I saw you like that in a store... I might wonder about the quality of the wig, though.  I wonder about my own, too... I really need to shop for better hair. 😉

I think it does help, yeah. It helps people focus on your eyes for sure, vs other 'tells'.....here's one without the glasses so you can make your mind up

Halloween wigs don't cut it honey.........you need to spend some time trying on some really good wigs, find the one that works for you. HRT and makeup always help out too 🙂
