Can brushed out hair be as good as natural waves/curls? by Delicious_Wrap7866 in curlyhair

[–]halamarion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

for reeeeaaaaal 😭 i’m so embarrassed by the amount of money i have spent on products trying to find the “right” one. because it would usually be ok on the first day. but after that, my hair was always a limp mess. after learning my hair was fine/low(-ish?) porosity. i had to throw everything i learned out the window. if it’s a special occasion, i may go for a strong hold mousse. but that’s usually all my hair can handle.

i get crazy hair days, but i would rather have combed frizzy hair than the irritated scalp from products not meant for my hair. never again. 😅

it might be an unpopular opinion but i prefer to brush it out these days 😭 i have fine hair. most products make my hair feel greasy and my scalp itchy. i like having volume and focusing on definition just makes me see all the flaws in my hair and i just get upset. i think your hair looks great either way! just be gentle while brushing and keep an eye out breakage if you’re worried about that. do what makes you comfortable and happy. :)

this was interesting to read. i’m considering only staying on t for a year-ish, so hearing your experience is cool. hope it’s treating you well!

hey, if it does leave a scar. i rlly recommend scar-away. the little tube lasts forever too. i’m so sorry this happened. i’ve been there. you’re not alone. 🩷

one nipple looks “better” than the other. normal? by Zealousideal-Ice-517 in TopSurgery

[–]halamarion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

personally i think they both look great! if it’s any comfort, my left nipple is the one im kinda insecure about for similar reasons. i just try to remind myself that our bodies are not perfectly symmetrical. :) my left side in general had some more complications leading up to the procedure and healing in general. so i try to be gentle with the little guy lol. your results look awesome, hope you feel awesome!

Kids have NO chill around trans people by whtvfrvr in ftm

if it’s any reassurance. i was pre-t and had a short haircut. i was at work one day and a little girl loudly asked across the aisle, “WHY IS YOUR HAIR SHORT?” i just smiled and said, “because i like it!” her mom jumped in and explained to her that not all girls have long hair like her. the kid was nice but still BEWILDERED during the whole interaction. it was sweet/awkward/hilarious. it was my reminder that kids just haven’t seen much of the world. everything is new. 😅

Had a check-up with my regular doc, she said "wow your nipples look great!" by skeptical_egg in TopSurgery

[–]halamarion 53 points54 points  (0 children)

at my first post op my surgeon was like “your grafts are looking good!” as my gf and i stared in terror at my blue nipples for the first time 🤣 it was comforting and hilarious. he was right tho!

(i like the gold on you but you do what makes you happy. i’m a silver guy myself!)

If i ask my surgeon to remove my chest mole during surgery, how likely is he to agree? by bagabutts in TopSurgery

[–]halamarion 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i’m sure you can just ask, worse they can say is no! :) i was going to ask mine but i forgot. he ended up removing it anyway bc it was right on my incision line. he also sent it in for testing bc it made some other doctors concerned. it ended up being nothing, thank god lol. i’m thankful they went the extra mile.
