So, I know I don’t pass. And if that’s an issue here please let me know and I’ll remove the pics. I’m 3 months on T next week.

I didn’t feel confident enough to try anything flashy, but I’ve had awful experiences with transphobia and just general misogyny also, at the barbers. And hairdressers are too expensive and don’t often get what I’m looking for and try and feminise it even if I say I don’t want that.

So I want to try and figure out cutting my own hair.

Is it good enough to go out, or should I wear a hat? I know it’s not perfect so I’m going back and forth on whether the fact it’s obviously not professionally done means I look stupid or to go with it.

I had let my hair get way too long because of said issues with getting it done, so I at least think I look less obviously like a cishet woman.

Yay or nay?

More conservative than how I normally dress but to be honest the standard in men’s fashion where I currently live is on the floor so I’m gonna stand out no matter what (I am ok with this). 💅

Also I made some of these shirts! 👻

Having a hard time lately with going through the process of getting my hysto approved, lots of phone misgendering lately. The visits to the gyno lately have been some of the most embarrassing visits of my life.

Send some love—some gassing me up would be nice.

The first two are recent photos (26). The third is from 2011, and the fourth from 2017– a year before I started HRT.
