Hi again! (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) by RIPandTERROR@sh.itjust.works to c/mtf@lemmy.blahaj.zone
 

Hey everyone!

I’ve been taking a lot of selfies lately, and I’m trying to be mindful about how often I post. Recently, I’ve added eyeliner, eyeshadow, and lipstick to my makeup routine, and I’m excited to share that I’ll be hitting one year on HRT in early October with a few updates!

Since the beginning of my hormone journey, I’ve taken over 800 photos to document my progress. I decided to start an Instagram account for anyone interested in following along and showing support: Instagram . You can also find a link to my full Google Photos timeline there: Google photos timeline .

Your support means the world to me, and I’d love to share updates more often. If this post isn’t appropriate for the community, please let me know, and I’ll make adjustments. Also, if anyone knows of communities focused on timelines or LGBT selfies, I’d appreciate any recommendations.

Thank you so much for your support! 💖🏳️‍⚧️😁

Edit: forgot to actually put in links 😅

I'm so happy for ya!!! I'm thinking of dying my hair the same colour as yours, is that your natural colour?

EEEEEEEE! DO IT!

I grew it out for a year before finally committing to HRT and I first started dying at around 6 or 7 months in I think. My Google photos link has everything I took between then and now.

I use this:

Like once a month roughly. It comes in extremely red, then slowly fades into a nice orange. My hair is naturally a dark brown, so it normally takes a darker shade then on the photo, but I get some pretty bright colors out of that, for only like 11 bucks a month and no bleaching 😁🤘🏻

We have a very similar natural hair colour, this is perfect! Your HRT gains are spectacular too!

We need to discuss that cable fail in the second picture tho, omg the spaghetti!
