More that "artsy" - I see a trend setter!

Oh wow!! Thank you so much, you both make me feel beautiful

I like them all Harlow, but this is my favourite by far, makes you look very classy - a beautiful woman!

Love the blue hair Harlow. It is kind of lame, how we are not born with different hair colors. I would so be down for some green hair with out having to dye.

But like I guess...to ME, and this is just ME personally so please no one be offended, I feel like I will always be a boy cuz of the way I was born. Its hard to describe cuz inside I feel very intensely female, but at the same time to me it seems like no matter how pretty I get or what I will still be at least partly a boy. Like...I can add girl to it, but I can't ever take away what you were born as or stop being what you were. Like, even when I see the most gorg and passable transgirls, to me they're girls but at the same time they're also kinda guys (but I totally respect their identity and how they see themselves ofc).

Ehh, I kinda feel the same way. That's why I embrace being a transsexual. And partly why I wouldn't go stealth.

Okiess, soo been regrowing my hair for a month now and decided to try styling it today and doing something androgynish..the result, i look like a 12 y/o boy, lol (my high pitched 12 year old GIRLish voice adds to that even more lol ):



Also, no makeup besides a little under eye concealer.

Yes, you look female and rather pretty    Time to move on over to the 'Fabulous' thread dear

Okiess, well after passing with the short hairstyle when I went out (I credit my voice), I decided to try doing my makeup, and I dunno, sumthin about short hair and makeup looks silly to me, obvs cuz I couldn't keep a straight face, lol:



I liked the way I looked in the mirror muuch better, but still...not sure if makeup and pixie style hair go well together with my features. Also, I did a smokey eye with light, medium, and chocolate browns, and then liquid liner, mascara, and concealer/foundation. I'm kinda going for a Joan Jett/androgynous look.

I don't like the eye shadow. You only need eyeliner and a bit smudged along your eyelids to look great. I think I know what I don't like about your eyebrows. You've plucked too much from the area above the inside corners of your eyes, making your eyebrows look too far apart. But this may be a personal taste.

probably a never but here we go.  


and i got bored and decided i felt like wearing some lipstick

Even if I was born with Blue hair Aina I'd probably still color it something different, I just love switching it up too much. Blue is my favorite color, but I've had so many favorite colors, definitely keeping blue for awhile though.

I want hair like Natasha Lillipore!!

Agreees, you've got beaautiful eyes and a very feminine and sophisticated expression, I think your presentation looks very artistic and creative and just plain fab. One small tip, your eyebrows look great buuut if you were to pluck them so the ends closest to your nose are more parrallel with the corners of your eyes it will feminize your face even more ) just a suggestion!

Thanks Juss, I actually have to fill in the inner corners because even though I'm a natural brunette for whatever reason my inner brows are blonde. I match them with the inner corners of my eyes, I think it's just the angle of the photo that makes it look longer than it is. Good tip though

And yes I feel the same as Ashey. But Juss I had the EXACT same feelings you did, which is why I too stopped HRT and detransitioned. Not that it will happen, but it caught back up to me and now I accept that I'm a trans girl and I actually wouldn't want to be a cis girl, I just feel the LGBTQ community is such a special one and I'm proud to be part of such a large group that is proud to express their differences and get passed & turn whatever (shame, guilt and any other of society's BS) into acceptance and even celebrate them. I'm still nervous to come out to family and such but each day I just know that I'm on the right path and have never been happier. I wish you the best in whatever your choice! I think you should have fun genderbending and just being you, an original one of a kind!

Went out solo last night, how'd I look?

I love your scrunchy nose

I like the pics from last night, but I REALLY like your avatar pic! Do you usually wear your glasses?

Only when I'm trying to look smart

I've seen girls starting with much more masculine features pass just fine.  You don't have much to worry about in my opinion.

I agree with Gwynne.  I think the glasses help, but also the way your bangs are in the avatar work better.

Hi, Stephe, and welcome.  The thing that jumps right out at me is your smile.  And since you are at ground zero, I'd say you already have a feminine vibe going.  Best wishes to you.

Thanks Jamie! I really like looking through the posts on this thread and seeing the advice, and hearing about the various transitions. It's a very positive experience.

I can totally see Joan Jett!



But you are going to need to wear some badass leathers and scowl a lot.

everyone here is so beautiful! wish i was a bit closer to transitioning.....
