So, how do I de-emphasize my frankensteinian brow-line?

Hey, Beauty Queens!

I need some make-up tips for hiding a masculine brow...

If you look at the pics on my profile page you'll see what I mean. I'm pretty happy with how I look for being just under 6 months of HRT in general, but I HATE that brow with a passion!

How can I hide it?

I don't want to have bangs, I hate 'em, so what to do?

I know, FFS is surely in my future, but until then???

Thanks in advance, I really need some help with this..

:) Svenna

Wow Svenna, uh can I borrow Roxie? She does some really nice make up work and she has you looking really like WOW. Does she ever consider teaching classes? The browline is a toughie for most of us. It's going to take FFS to get rid of it. I have the same issue as you do. I'm calling for Electrolysis today. I won't even consider FFS until that is finished and as I'm so blond even at my age, laser is not in my future. And I hate bangs as well. I'm growing my hair out and catching some crap about that, but I just don't care. Kathryn

More dramatic but not over the top lashes. More detail and attention to your lower eye portions. Different lipstick shades. Hair style with a bit more curl and body at the bottom and bring the front more in and around your face for a softer overall shape.

LOL!!

Well, Roxy has her talents, yes she does..

But she don't come cheap, lemme tell ya! lol..

I keep saying that I won't consider FFS until the HRT has had a chance to work for a couple of years, but I can see already that my brow and nose are gonna need re-shaping..

I told Roxy tonight that I think I would rather have FFS than any other surgery, if it came down to just one...

I HATE having male gender markers on my face. I can hide what is in me pants, but my face is right out there, confirming I was once 'male'...

UGH!!!

This MUST change, the sooner, the BETTER!!!

I'll be looking into laser for my beard shadow ASAP, too...

UGH!!

Dysphoria? What? ME??

Nah...

Doh!

*sigh* what does a S/O say when the love of her life wants to change the face she longs to see every day for the rest of her life? :(

"Will you feed the dogs and get me some milk ?"

That's what mine says, that and " I can't believe your brows look better than mine,"

Goin' off the hip here :friends:

      Good morning All. Coffees on.

      By Willow · Posted

      Good morning coffees   This probably doesn’t exactly apply to me because you wouldn’t have found a more shy and conservative person than me.  I was perhaps less shy before my sister started complaining about me doing things that were hers to do. And I would become embarrassed and that was the end of that.   upstairs unit got their typical weekend visitors in the middle of the night last night.  They woke me up.  They have little consideration for being in a condo community and the neighbors being in such close proximity.   @awkward-yet-sweet , how goes the job with your husband’s boss?  I don’t recall you saying much about it this week, but I could have missed a post along the way.  If I recall you were supposed to meet with him last Monday.   @KymmieL I hope you are feeling better.     Yes, I find it to be wrong that just because a car part says Ford or Chevrolet on the box that same part with Lincoln or Cadillac on the box cost a lot.more.  I know there are differences in the upscale brands such as the engine and drivetrain in the Caddy and of course the interior fit and finish.  But it’s the same body with things crammed in the same way under the hood.     well, time to finish my coffee, fix my hair and made my way across the street to work.    willow

      I read about her this morning. What a shame! She was beautiful and it seems she had a strong support system in place and could have had a wonderful life all to have it end like this. Such a waste. I truly hope the monster that killed her gets everything he deserves.

      I am so glad you enjoy them as well. The help things “stay put” so well. It got me through some of my most dysphoric times.   Wow, I hadn’t heard this at last week’s Zoom meeting if you had mentioned it. That is a huge milestone April Marie.I have no doubt that this confidence will only grow in time. The freedom of being yourself, especially in public, is a wonderful feeling. I am truly happy for you.😘   *Big Congratulatory Hug* Susan R🌷

      @Abigail Genevieve, that is not an appropriate question, IMO.  This isn't the Army/McCarthy hearings.   Carolyn Marie

      Voting for Trump

      By EasyE · Posted

      Don't think Americans would go for the "compulsory" part. We kind of like not being told what to do ... Amazingly, there is great pushback on voter ID laws. The opponents say it discourages voting, especially among the poor and minorities. That is really a smokescreen IMO for those who want to harvest ballots from as many places as possible, including folks who don't exist or don't hold citizenship...

      If you could talk for 1 hour about any topic without preparation, what would it be?

      Pretty soon I think I might be ready to talk about gender-affirming care for kids, possibly w/r/t the Cass Review and its shortcomings.

      She was a beautiful young woman ...   "What we do know is that the offender was a very violent individual and should not have been on our streets.”  Whether gender related or not, the mental health and incarceration issues in our country are incredibly bad and need to be addressed.

      April,   I'm glad my entries are interesting to you.  TransCentralPA is a great organization with so many caring people.  I would strongly recommend you find a way to attend the Keystone Conference.  I guarantee you'll find it an amazing experience.     Hugs,   Sally

      Dear @Sally Stone.  I think you should author a memoir based on these posts (maybe you're already working towards that?).  You could decide at a later time if/when you might want to publish.   I appreciate you sharing your deep connection with your friend Willa (and I am sorry for your loss) and the benefit of having a Trans friend and mentor in our Life and Journey.  I was fortunate to have found one also in our TGP friend @Kasumi63.   As you know we share many common Life themes in our stories.  Drop me a PM if you'd like to chat about it.  Looking forward to the next 'chapter'.

      Voting is compulsory here, for better or worse. Would doing the same in the US snap people out of their apathy?

      I am noting you use CRT terminology.  The comment is not out of the blue.  Some of your remarks on religion suggest atheism.  So it is believable that you are a Marxist, knowingly or not.  Are you?
