I'm still trying to get the hang of make-up... Some days I look great, others, a train wreck...

Aw, it's just about hair. I thought this thread was going to be "Don't let CIS women fool you, they want your kidneys to sell on the black market." or something salacious.

Lol, you really crack me up. 😃

The date was going so well until I woke up in that bath tub full of ice water...

I haven't had a cut since Oct 2016. After over a year the back is to my shoulders but the front and sides take longer. Mine has gone through stages. under a certain length it was all wavy. It even sort of self curled with just leave in spray conditioner. Now it has a little wave left but lays nearly straight at least until I use shampoo. Then it poofs up. I have found the best conditioner is in those tubes that come in the hair color kits. You are supposed to use it once a week to help maintain the color but it also makes my hair super soft.
I am at the point where a simple ponytail is my main go-to right now. Its just long enough so I have started to notice the ponytail hangs down to my neck. If I get my peaks on the front to fully grow back in I will be happy with my hair for the first time ever. So far I have seen some regrowth at the upper hair line turn into short terminal hair now about an inch long.

Try a hair masque sometime.  They do wonders for my hair.  It's a deep conditioner sort of concoction that you leave in for a couple of hours.

I know it's not super sexy in the moment but I use a shower cap most times when I'm not shampooing/conditioning or the struggle is too real. My hair is sooooo heavy and curly if I get it wet! 

Thanks all.  Good comments.

Pre transition I washed my 1 inch hair daily.  Drying it took 30 seconds. Now it's a few inches below the shoulder and takes 2 hours to dry.

With the sub freezing temps here in Chicago I only wash it twice per week.  Today was a definite bad hair day!!

Ugh! My hair is still in that VERY awkward stage of clearly just grown out man hair. It's long enough in the back to touch my collar but not long enough everywhere to put up in a secure ponytail or bun. A few more months though and I'll be able to at least get it out of my way securely. Then a few more months after that and I can get it trimmed to all about the same length! I look at it as a journey.

Ah the trans mullet.  I remember those days well.  I used a lot of gel and/or hairspray to keep it presentable at that point in my life.
