Shave peach fuzz?

Hey guys... I read that to pass better pre-T u can shave your face getting rid of the girly peach fuzz that is all over. I was curious to if any of you do this? Does it really help? And if so, when it grows back, does it come back the same or does it get thicker or darker or anything where you would look weird if you didnt keep shaving it? I don't want to start doing it if it will ruin my face if for some reason I never start T, ya know? Thanks

Without "T" it will not come back coarser. 14 year old natal males shave their "peach fuzz" and it makes them look no more or less masculine (they just look wanabee), but gives them the pleasure of complaining about shaving. :lol:

I heard that if cis guys shave at a young age the hair goes all crazy and it would of been better if they waited to shave. Until they actually had a beard.

Known natal girls who shave to look smoother and better with makeup and they had no negative effects. I never notice peach fuzz on anyones face but if you have a lot and look older then maybe it would be a good strategy -otherwise I'd leave it. Shaving can really irritate your skin and when it is growing back could get itchy as well and I doubt anyone really notices either way. I am a people watcher and as an artist kind of a natural observer and I never have

Shaving doesn't effect hair growth as far as i know. I shaved a bit and then in an attempt to "man up" let my beard grow. When i shaved again years later it was as if i had always shaved. It is just a pain to remember and another chore in a daily routine. Give it a try and see if you like it. I doubt it will cause any change at all.

Hugs,

i shaved my peach fuzz the other day...just to shave my face. to see how it felt. no one noticed besides me. it felt really cool to do it and i felt like my face was smoother. It has not come back thicker...and without T it won't. but i completely understand where you are coming from. If it is as fun for you as it was for me then do it. but if it is a hassle don't worry about it. it doesn't seem to help or hurt with passing

I never shaved my fuzz before I went onto T, didn't seem much point but I think its something most F2M's long to do for real - until the novelty wears off - me, Im lazy, I don't like beards but cant be bothered shaving every day so I keep a short stubble and have one of those stubble trimmers to keep it neat so I only have to do it once a week...............

I started shaving as a novelty and because, like you, I read that it's easier to pass without it. In my case, I know I pass better by shaving but I guess that differs from people to people. As of now (I'm pre-T) I shave because I like the smooth feeling of my face :P

One change I've noticed due to shaving is that my skin is rougher than it used to be, and a few hairs (barely 4-5) are thicken and longer. I shave every 2-3 days so maybe it's because of how often I do it.

I have been shaving above my lip for about 10 years and my face once or twice a week. Above my lip has come in darker for about the last 2 years, dark enough that I have a five o'clock shadow going on and other people do notice it. with my face I am starting to find some darker and coarser stray hairs coming in on my chin and side of my face but nothing noticeable except to me and my girlfriend. For some reason my body hair in places is thicker than my dad and brother. My legs have more hair on them than most cismen. My cismale friends have always been jealous of my leg hair ever since I got up the courage to start wearing shorts out in public without shaving my legs.

It really does not make any difference. If you pass, you pass for a prepubescent boy. This is generally going to be the case for anyone who's no/pre/early T.

Again...YMMV buuut.

I'm very hairy (pre-T) and I have found that, yeah, shaving at least will make the hairs come back in bigger numbers and more noticeable. Coarser? Enh. For me at least that seems to be the case. In no way, shape or form is shaving your peach fuzz (or any body hair) going to make it come in like you were on T...so you can't shave your way to a beard.

It also depends on your body chemistry and hair tendencies.

I'm fuzzy and got dumped in prenatal T as a fetus, I'm also pretty pale with black body hair.

I also come from a hairy as heck family bloodline (both sides and both sexes).

So it's status quo for me already to have treasure trails, thigh hair, lower back hair, shoulder fuzz, and some pretty impressive upper lip and jaw hair. Not to mention everywhere south of the belt and even my knuckles and toes. Not as bad as my brothers...but certainly enough to beat the 'status quo' and then some.

Shaving for me made it more noticeable, longer and more 'concentrated'...but mine's a little more potent than peach fuzz.

99% of the time no amount of shaving is going to help you pass prior to T. If it makes you feel psychologically better to shave, do so. I personally don't bother and I feel better *with* my werewolf fuzz than without.

      In my case, at almost 9 months, most changes have been very subtle. I was 60 when I started, and overweight. Also, I am not very observant when it comes to changes. In the last 3 months I have been on T blockers and breast growth have definitely started having suffered irregular "ouchies", but at the same time I have been slowly losing fat, so Bust measurements have not changed. What has changed in the density, I can feel a difference. Face wise the skin feels softer, and my lashes seem to be more visible. Head hair regrowth is a maybe- maybe not situation.  I do have to select men's clothing carefully to camouflage the change in breast shape. I guess I'm still at the not passable as a female stage especially with no makeup. I'm also over 6 foot and well over 100kgs which I guess is problematic to start with!   Hope this helps somewhat   Kate .

      I started feminizing HRT about 6-7 weeks ago. I began with what I called the beginner's patch. I immediately found myself wanting to level up to the next dose and did that this week (yay!). So far, I am enjoying the ride.   I've read everything I can find on this topic. For the HRT vets on here, what is reasonable to expect in terms of physical changes for someone starting in their 50s? I know "your mileage may vary." I guess I am curious if I stay on my current trajectory for six months, a year, multiple years, how pronounced will the physical changes be? Will I reach a point where it is totally obvious or will I land in a "middle zone" somewhere in which I could pass either way?   Thanks! Like I said I am enjoying the ride so far and always curious to know others' experiences. Not sure anyone else in my life will be excited about these moves I am making, but I have been over that in many places on here already so need to rehash... Love and blessings to all!   Easy

      Being admitted into the hospital after a long ER visit. I started passing lots of blood and they are keeping me for observation.    Nurse came in to see about a condom catheter, that of course doesn't work on me. 🤣   She said, "I guess we will use incontinence supplies on you."  
    • Ivy
      Yeah.  I think this is what it is about.  Since they are not transgender, nobody else could possibly be either.  I'm not sure that a cisgender person can understand being transgender.  But that hardly means that a transgender person's experience is not real - just because it is not theirs. Why is a transgendered person's experience not valid, while a cisgendered person's is?  Why should it be the cisgendered person that decides? Nobody is forcing a cis person to transition.  What I do for myself is my own business.

      Decided to head for Lowes after work early and bought a new stove.Was in stock and put it back of my truck.Luckily a neighbor of mine whom does appliance repair did come to remove the connection and convert the stove to natural gas in the new one.Was set up for propane.Happy with it and the scrap metal guy came to pick up my old one.He was happy to get it,said he needed one more to make it a load in his trailer full of junk appliances

      I've been thinking it is a matter of belief.  They simply do not believe someone can validly be transgender and should not be allowed to practice their beliefs, but should be forced to practice their belief, that is, that there is no such thing as transgender and it is all mental illness/sin/hormonal imbalance.

      I am really kind of sick of everybody who is not transgender deciding on what we need and do not need in the way of procedures. They act like all of this is play acting, and we can just apply cosmetics to our entire body. It might be refreshing if someone asked us directly what services we need in order to transition. I could say more as I am frustrated, but I do not want to violate the TOS.
