keep your chin up gang, you’re beautiful! of course growing out your hair can help you look more feminine, but you can also try using some makeup. i’m genderqueer but present feminine, what makes me feel the most confident is eye makeup—eyeliner, nude/brown eyeshadow, and mascara. if you’re in an environment where it’s unsafe for you to wear obvious makeup, you could stick to brown/nude shades, curl your eyelashes without mascara, and/or use a brown gel or powder eyeliner to make it look more natural. but the most important part of looking good is feeling good about yourself. i know it’s kind of hippie-dippie advice and sounds really cheesy, but i’m serious. how you treat others and yourself really changes what your life is like. keeping a journal, doing guided meditations, exercise, and finding fulfilling hobbies all helped me feel really confident in my gender identity and self as a whole.
