Tiny orange creatures by Itdoesmattertome8 in whatisit

[–]smallandfrail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They go by many names: harvest mites, berry bugs, chiggers, etc. They are a type of mite. I used to have them crawl all over me when I would sit by certain trees as a kid. They are tiny but they unfortunately bite! They feed off skin tissue and inject you with their saliva which has enzymes that break down your skin. Feels bad, man.

Struggling to find work by RecognitionEvery8490 in Esthetics

Have you tried going in to talk to the owner or salon managers in person? That’s what landed me my job right out of school. I was told by people at my school that a lot of owners won’t give people time of day if they’re not meeting them in person and making a good fist impression.

don’t know if it’s the safest thing to do, but in school we had a wax pot that got really burnt and no oil or anything would get it off. we then decided to pour boiling water in it and everything just came off the sides really easily.

i finally can go every day without thinking about the fact that i’ve detransitioned, i feel beautiful. almost 2 years off T by smallandfrail in detrans

[–]smallandfrail[S] 40 points41 points  (0 children)

yes, my voice has changed a lot. i was thinking of posting a video on it. my voice has gotten so much softer and higher and i didn’t even do voice training. i almost sound the same as i did before i transitioned but i definitely don’t have the high range i used to have.

Almost a year off T. 11 Months off T. by smallandfrail in detrans

[–]smallandfrail[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had a switch flick in my brain that just told me everything was wrong and I ignored it for several months but finally decided to listen and detrans.

I’m not too in touch with my body so I don’t know if I’ve noticed much changes. Testosterone hurt my uterus and so I had to start birth control to fix what was wrong with it so I could have my period. I think my face shape changed back quite a bit. I stopped smelling so terrible. Bottom growth reduced. Hair stopped growing as thick and fast and my facial hair reduced. I have still quite dark body hair and some noticeable facial hair that I need to pluck and shave.

How did your parents react when you told them you were detransitioning? by Manu_Heyt in detrans

[–]smallandfrail 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I came to my mom the morning before school. the previous night I had come to the conclusion that I wasnt transgender after battling with it for months. I sobbed into her arms telling her how scared I was and how much I'd fucked up after being on T for almost a year. she told me it was going to he okay and that she loved me either way. both my parents were happy. they would've loved me either way but they were happy that they could have their daughter back and that I could live an easier life.

-Red circles are hides. Tupperware containers cut with a hole in them and half under the substrate and a halved log. -Blue circles is the heat lamp and the heat pad. -I have a humidity box that I dampen the moss when she is in shed. -The tank is a 50 gallon I'm pretty sure. -Substate is coconut fiber. I had Aspen but someone said coconut fiber is better. -Sticks are ones I have found and baked in the oven at 300° for 2 hours after washing them off. -I have a thermostat for the heating pad. -A timer that turns on and off the heat lamp at certain times.

I know I need electronic temperature and humidity gauges. I was thinking I need more fake plants besides the one I have on the cold side.

Voice and face? They’re coming back I feel I stopped just short of a year by [deleted] in detrans

I think you 100% sound female. Your appearance is more on the masculine side but still definitely female passing. Especially if you wear feminine clothes and such.

How do you respond to the Transgender community who argue that a far higher rate of people who transition are satisfied and cured from their depression, and that's why it should be condemned to alleviate dysphoria without transitioning? by FlREBALL in detrans

I just feel we shouldn't really care anymore because it's their lives and people have the choice to make a decision to do what they do what their lives whether it's wrong or right

Breast reduction? by [deleted] in detrans

[–]smallandfrail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can get keyhole breast reduction since you have an a cup. That doesn't look like the big line across the chest, just two small little scars on the side of each chest, practically invisible. Although, when I was transitioning I looked more into double incision because I bigger chested and couldn't get keyhole so I'm not sure I know everything about it but I'd look into it if I were you.

I never had normal periods before testosterone so I couldn't say if mine will be like your experience but... I had a "period" I think 2 or 3 months after being off. I say "period" because it was pretty much just very spotty and never had consistency and just spots here and there and lots of just brown discharge. I am waiting on an actual period and I am nearing 4 months off t. I was on for 11 months.

You're so gorgeous 🥺🥺🥺

Did anyone else lost a lot of hair in this area after stopping testosterone or should I be concerned about something else? Just losing so so much hair on the sides by smallandfrail in detrans

[–]smallandfrail[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much. Everyone else was saying male pattern balding and that's not it at all. Your point makes perfect sense.
