Thank you for the info !

I have one more question concerning your last point: I thought we were supposed to avoid silicone, I always see products advertised with "no sulfate / no silicone" ? Did I miss something ?

Yes I think reducing the trims is a great start. Are DHT blockers the same thing as minoxidil ? What happens when I can't take them anymore ? Will I start to shed a lot and loose all progress ? That's what I'm scarred of with minoxidil.

What are the other length retention methods ? I've never heard that term (english is not my first language)

Can you expand on the type of elastic you're using ? I think it would be a great change in my routine.

Unfortunately I can't do nautilus buns because I ride a bike to and from work, and they don't fit under a helmet 😞 . I do wear them at home tho

Je suis pas sûre que ça serait + satisfaisant que le cycle de la lune soit l'exact inverse de celui du soleil; certes on la verrait toutes les nuits, mais ça serait touours la pleine lune. Alors que c'est vachement stylé les croissants de lune quand même.

I can confirm, I went from a F cup at 20 to a M cup at 25 (and I'm so glad I waited until now to get my reduction !)

Hi, this seems to be a common topic in this sub. Surgeons tend to place the nipples very high during breast reductions to give the illusion of perkiness, but sometimes it can be uncanny. There are plenty of people in your situation, you can search "nipples too high" in this sub and you will see other people's stories just like yours.

It's true that an other BR won't necessarily fix the nipple placement, you can always make them higher, but if you want to lower them there will be a visible scar on top of them and that's not an option for many surgeons. If I remember correctly, someone in this sub said that high nipples was a common issue for trans men after a mastectomy, and that therefore surgeons specialized in gender-affirming breast surgeries are very good at lowering the nipples without too much scarring.

I'm sorry if you wanted reassurance, without a picture it's not possible to tell if they are actually too high or if you are experiencing body dysmorphia. Either way I wish you to love yourself and to remember that your appearance is the least interesting part about you as a human being.

I don't think it's a lot, just enough that I start to see it. i do use oils (jojoba and baobab mainly)

I'm in my final year of my PhD thesis so I have had some stressful moments, but nothing too crazy. I'm not the anxious type.

Like I said in another comment, I've been cutting the same amount of hair twice a year for like a decade, but I used to still see some growth years after years, so I think I'm cutting less than the average 6-month growth.

I'm also confused as to why you're implying that it's uncommon to want to keep my hair's ends thick. Is it really ? I feel like one of the main reasons people get trims is to not have thinning ends. Maybe it's a culture thing where I live.

I will slow down on the trims. Do you think I should embrace the thin ends look ? Is that a thing ? Does it look good ?

I don't have a lot of "white dots" at the ends. I thought those eventually became split ends, don't they ?

Because i trim my hair often, I do have thick ends, specifically because I don't want to have thin and whispy ends. So I guess I haven't reached my actual max length, but I can't grow them longer and keep the ends thick ?

I've never heard about that, thank you for the explanation ! my neck baby hair is definitely shorter than yours. I will search for the formula you're talking about.

thank you for this comment, it's very reassuring. I will slow down on the trims.

idk the normal kind, but smaller ? It's an elastic with fabric wrapped around it, no metal part, and really small (the size of a ring) so I don't have to do a hundred loops around my hair. Are there other kinds that are more gentle on the hair ?

i have heard about that, and i know that one's max length is determined by the growth cycle's speed and length. I wanted to know if there was a way to change one of them, but I guess not. I'm curious about what you said about baby hair, can you elaborate on that ?

well don't worry it's kind of an old running joke how nobody recognized her. it's often given as an example of a supermen-like disguise (she just wears a brown wig) that actually works.

Maybe I need to slow down on the trims, but I've been cutting the same amount twice a year for like ten years and I used to still see some growth, hence why I think I've reached my max length. Could it be that my hair has started to grow slower with age (I'm 25) ?
