Hair ideas


J_Perra

Recommended Posts

I am coming to your ladies for help. I am looking for hair style ideas that would "fit my face". I would prefer not to loose the length in the back, but I kinda fail at this right now. The pics are how I normally wear it, and it's getting kinda boring.

I would experiment with wearing it more forward as it would "soften" your look.  Often it's a good idea to talk to a hairdresser.  Oddly for some of us they are the first we come out to.  You might be shocked by the results but if you are trying to feminize your look hair can help more than most things.

Move your center part over to your left side above end of your left eyebrow. and sweep the front hair to the right.  Or do it right to left and catch it up with a cute clip in barrette.  Your face and mine are similar in structure and I have some pictures in my gallery where I played with some styles. 

 

Your bottom picture here shows your hair is a bit thicker than mine and you might be a candidate for side-swept bangs cut by a stylist.  My stylist is the sister of a MTF and loves to work on my hair and chat about the local Trans community.

That's funny. My natural part is on the left. My hair is ultra fine though which sucks. I cannot seem to get it to grow past mid sholder blade in the back. I will check photos out. I wish i was lucky enough to find some local MtF friends. But that is mostly my fault for not getting out. Kinda hard to do with work and raising a 3 yo on your own. I wouldn't trade what I am going through or her for anything though. I liked this, we did it before the dye job. Couldn't stop laughing though.

You made me laugh.  That was a bit more forward than i had expected!:D

I must admit to being jealous.  I have to wear a wig as i'm bald as a coot.  The only advantage to that is it's being pre styled.

I would still suggest a stylist.

Ps the last pic is cute.  Enjoy playing and a style you like will come to you.

 

Hugs,

I agree with the swept forward as the high forehead look is not helping at all. Mine looked a bit similar when styled as yours. I have tended to go with a medium fringe rather than swept to one side as I get irritated by hair over my eyes. I found that the length made my fine hair fall forward over my mouth and I was constantly sweeping it back so now I have a shorter 'Purdey' style (a sort of tapered bob). I find it easier to control and, as we are not living in the 1960's, female.

 

Hair control is perhaps one of the biggest problems I have found (in my opinion) for a woman.

      https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2024/04/29/1247896150/transgender-health-insurance-west-virginia-north-carolina-appeals-court     Good news, y'all.  Better get those procedures and meds down before SCOTUS takes it away again, or the R's regain power in D.C.   Carolyn Marie

      Of course, we all wish you the best of luck.  But please don't assume that a negative first reaction will be the one that sticks.  It takes time, communication and lots of love.   Carolyn Marie

      We need to learn to talk to each other again.  This place is important that way.   Abby

      Nationally, sure.  But where I live, there aren't two large segments.  There's a majority, and a few who just don't fit and probably ought to move out.  I was in a nearby city a few days back, and I saw a billboard for the "Freedom From Religion" foundation.  That's acceptable there.  Here... folks would be making a bonfire.    I don't really see how the different sides CAN get along.  I see what goes on in California, and its like watching news from some alien planet.  It has very little to do with LGBTQ+ issues, really.  I can't live their way, I won't live their way, and I have no desire to compromise at all in that direction.  I'd prefer to be neighbors in separate nations, and I think folks would get along better that way.  I firmly believe the anti-trans stuff wouldn't exist here if we had a new republic of the Center-South area.  Even a micro-state of just my county and a couple others would be fine.    I get the giggles when folks think that Trump is somehow "far right."  Around here, he's a barely-acceptable centrist.  And by the standards of 100 years ago, its true.

      I don't think the Dems have a corner on division.  I do try to kinda keep up with the antics on Fox for 5h1+s and giggles. We have two large segments of the population, living in their own bubbles, with completely opposite views of our society, who never talk to each other, only at each other. People don't even want to get along with each other. We're tearing ourselves apart from the inside, while the rest of the world just sits back and watches.

      Back again now it’s inevitable I must tell my wife for me to be happy and authentic wish me luck

      Trying to decide if I am one.  Hmmm.  It depends on the definition.  The Democrats' definition dehumanizes them, whatever they are.   I would like to see a restoration of respect for America around the world, one Obama threw away.  I would like to see factories reopen whose jobs went overseas because people like BIden wrote legislation to create a tax structure than encouraged that.  I would like to see an end to the division that Biden and Obama cause and exploit for cynical political purposes.  I would like people to be able to express themselves without fear.  I would like honest news media.  I would llike to see the federal government not push us recklessly into debt.   If that makes me MAGA, I guess I am.

      You've never encountered the Oklahoma State Troopers, then.... it isn't far from reality.  I swear they've got half an army of cops just sitting around.  On I-40, they've got big concrete pads where they sit in the middle of the highway, sometimes a row of 8 cars in one spot.  I guess they've got money to burn....

      I fenced my posting of the link.  Yep.

      Good to hear about that case, but I believe Oklahoma is in the 11th Circuit COA region along with Texas which is going to find some way to nullify this decision as far as the Oklahoma law goes, just because - - - -
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      That's a Circuit (Circus) court ruling.  Which is essentially temporary.  Most everything right now is temporary, as the Supreme Court hasn't gotten around to dealing with all the various trans-related issues from the last few years.  I really, really wish they would just bite the bullet and do their thing.  It would save us from the constant tug-of-war. "The sky is falling!".... "No it isn't.".... "But there's crap coming down."....."It landed east of here"  Whether it ends up being good or bad, I wish they'd just lance the boil and let us either have a tyranny we can fight against or a republic we don't mind living in.  Mediocrity is irritating.
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      I'm sure there are some...there's just about every kind of person imaginable in our society.  And I suspect that a number of actual GOP politicians aren't really haters...it just happens to be convenient to go along.  Like most Germans in the early 20th century weren't actually anti-Semitic.  It was just that it didn't matter to them.    While I'm not friends with any politicians (well, other than local ones), the majority of folks around me aren't anti-trans.  And one of my two trans friends is a Trump supporter, with hat and all.  My other friend is a Democrat, and the three of us actually get along even when we talk politics.  Life is interesting.

      This suggests some of the problematic policies would be unenforceable if implementation were attempted.    https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/4th-circuit-gender-identity-is-a?publication_id=994764&post_id=144139815&isFreemail=true&r=rebf4&triedRedirect=true

      You can believe what you want.  But there are such.  That should not scare you.  I wonder why it does.
    • Davie
      I don't believe it. I've never heard of such a thing. That would scare me.
