    The hair is too short to look like Vegeta, you'd end up looking more like Yamcha, which would be... Unfortunate.

    I don't see myself going past shoulder length to be honest, or just above. That to me is the sweet spot for girls, and I've always far preferred the way it looks to super long hair, like what I see most Mtfs end up with. I have a few ideas for styles, cuts, and colors but I want to see how it looks when it gets there first. It doesn't happen to everyone, but I have heard of hair changing texture on HRT, so like I said we'll see.

    I do plan on being some shade of red head though, that is for certain.

    I've seen one trans girl in my uni pull off a great bob hairstyle, Brooke.

    That's what I'm going for, actually. A curly, wavy, messy bob with bangs to hide my masculine ass hairline. lol

    Two styles comes to mind for me immediately.

    The first one is Faith in Mirror's Edge: Catalyst.

    The second is Olivia Moore in iZombie, whom I may have a slight, ahem, crush on.

    I hope so for your sake. You don't wanna become Yamcha. For one, you'd never have sex again because nobody screws Yamcha except life.

    Bobs are my favorite. Every girl I've dated I've somehow convinced to keep their hair in a bob lol. Long hair is nice but it falls out every where and gets caught in things and it just seems silly to me. I also don't like very short hair on women though. Bobs are perfect.

    That second one is pretty close to what I think I'm going for, actually. Might need some work though to get my hair less curly and more cooperative. lol

    I was actually thinking about the Taylor Swift bob.

    Yeah, I think a lot of girls think this, so I am certainly not the only one. I hate finding hairs places hair is not supposed to be, like food or all over my pillow. It's way hard to manage too. The bob is that happy medium where it's still long and feminine, yet short enough to be easily manageable. Ponytails, buns, braids, etc can all still be achieved if desired too.

    Since I've started styling my hair every morning I find my overall confidence has gone up. Now if I can wear more stylish clothes....

    That's a sexy hairdo as well, but I just feel like Olivia Moore's hair is more... Genuine. Or something.

    I think most girls pull off the bob styles very well. As I said earlier, it's the perfect female hairstyle IMO.

    I need to keep showering every three days. The third day(today) my hair is on point! At least for dude hair. lol

    Oh that's great. Congrats, it takes the most courage!

    Mhm. Every woman looks good in a bob. In some kind of bob, because there is a million versions. Plus it's practical. Well, ultra long hair is fairly practical too, it doesn't require styling, a messy bun is enough and looks cool, or a ponytail.

    I envy, I have to wash my hair every day. No, it's not because washing makes it greasy.

    I can actually get away with once a week, but the last couple of days get kinda grungy if it's within a certain length range. But yeah some people need to wash more often.

    I feel sorry to say that, but it doesn't went really well. My father already knew since October 2016 and did 100% nothing to inform himself about that. Of course he told me he thought about it a lot, but he didn't try to find answers himself and just thinks his opinions on everything are already enough. Like he told me that it's literally impossible to be ever seen as a male by society or changing my name without loosing my ability to travel. My mothers reaction was even worse. She gave me a downgrading snort and asked "where does this idea come from again?" and even said transsexuals are just some kind of freaks. I know both are just worried and they love me, but they got really intolerant opinions and I feel absolutely lost at the moment. The only one who took it in a good/okay way was my little sister cause we're the same generation.

    Just been to a talk by a lovely lesbian Church of Wales priest, and I plucked up the courage to speak to her at the end about stuff, and when she asked my name, I told her my chosen one instead of my birth name- it's the first time I've ever introduced myself to someone without them knowing my original name, and I'm still shaking tbh.
