It would depend on the occasion, and what clothes you were wearing.

This I think is maybe the second time I ever tried down. Now that my hair is coming back I can hide quite a bit. But I did end up wearing it up as usual. After about 45 minutes of it down, it was getting kind of unruly. I have extremely frizzy hair. 

But I have a wedding coming up. So I may try down for that. Definitely time for a haircut though. Last one was November 2017!! Last time I shaved my head. ??‍? of corse I have been saying that since February. Lol

I think more feminine with it up too, but also agree with changing for the occasion.

Like an accessory, wear it accordingly. Other than that, try wearing your hair up for a more feminine look.

Could experiment by going halfway between up and down with a pollyanna? You'll get the length from the bottom layer and with the top layer pulled back, it will accentuate the feminine features previous posters mentioned. Might help with the frizz you mentioned too ;)

Only an end trim to even things up a bit and then the down will be the more feminine.

I wish that the hair on the top of my head was longer. That’s my issue with the down. Or even more with the half and half.  I have no bangs because my hair is still like a baby’s hair. I am so grateful to see it coming back but gosh is it slow growing. But it IS growing! That’s what I try to remember. But it’s about 1” long at this point. And only in like 2/3 of the area. The rest is still baby fine hair that’s trying to make the shift. In a year or two styling down will be easier. And I definitely like down more. Especially when I don’t straighten it like I did here. It’s super curly and has lots of volume everywhere but up top. So I still think it looks funny. 

And yes Vicky, only a trim!! Can’t lose the work I’ve put in this far. Lol. Growing hair is a slow process to say the least. It’s like,,,, well it’s like watching hair grow!! ?????‍♀️

I think down suits your face more, but I agree with the suggestion of varying it up depending upon the situation.

I think changing how your hair is styled is part of the fun of being a girl. I think the down is more feminine on your face. Play with different style and have fun with it!

Half up-Half down styles can be a lot of fun!  When putting your hair up, you can also try pulling hair from the sides and back (and not up and over) so it gives you a more feminine hairline.  That's my trick at least!

      This is a great analogy. The statement is true as it relates to the tree. The analogy fits because we as a LGBTQIA community are stronger when we stand together. It also work here on Transgender Pulse Forums. The support I feel from so many others has made me comfortable with my stance, because I'm in a beautiful forest of friends. So when I'm out alone and confronted. I can respond and act like the single tree in the field, surviving whatever comes my way. My roots reach back and communicate with others like me.    Standing Strong,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Mindy, that would be so awesome of you.  Please make the edit for me, and thank you so much!

      M.   The term bigender works for me because after taking the time to explore my feelings, I kept coming to the same conclusion, that while I felt an overpowering need to express my inner woman, I also enjoyed being a man.  I realized that my personality was equal parts man and woman and to be happy and fulfilled, I needed to express both sides.  There are challenges living a life of two-gender expression, but I'll expand on some of those in future posts.     Hugs,   Sally

      Sally, a moderator can edit the post adding "Post 3" if you would like. Let me know and I'll be glad to take care of it. That way your numbering system is in tact.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I thought Hey, I can't be experiencing Gender destroyer because it doesn't fit the narrative, but Hey I can. I am experiencing mild discomfort in relation to my gender. Because and that can be a form of mild form of it this forum because their elements of my gender that are out of alignment with my sign gender at birth. There are elements of my gender I have been holding back on some I did not even know for fear it did not fit was told was not very manly or in some other way not correct for someone who is an amab. I tried embracing and expressing some of these parts of me even for just a little bit every once in a while and it feels like a relief to me like a weight has been lifted.

      Welcome to Transgender Pulse Forums @violet r   I think we all were scared with our first post here on TPF. I hope you come to find this site as welcoming as an old friend. Not knowing the type of retail you're in, it is hard to know how they will react to your coming out. I would hope that if it's part of a larger corporation they may have corporate policies supporting/protecting you once you decide to come out publicly. No one here will rush you, or try to slow you down, once you've decided to come out. Some of us are secret sisters, and others of us are as flamboyant as they come. The cool this is you get to choose. You be you.   Best wishes, stay positive, and motivated,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Welcome aboard, Violet. What a pretty name!   You are among friends here. We are all on a journey, with things in common despite our individual uniqueness. I hope that makes sense!
