honestly, right now I don't even consider myself "trans", just "not cis" it doesn't feel like much, but honestly I can't understate what a huge effect telling myself that has had on me. It's been not even 4 days since the egg cracked and I've already found myself just... so happy. Twice I've randomly just teared up while driving around. I looked in the mirror and actually smiled at what I saw. I honest to god don't think I've ever even done that before :)
I can't even type the same anymore. I keep putting little heart emojis and :) smileys in everything and it's great! 💕💕💕
I always got so disappointed getting my hair cut. I always felt like I had to get it cut shorter than I wanted and it ended up even shorter afterwards. Whenever I showed people afterwords, I almost felt hurt when they said how nice it looked
Now I don't even have to go back to get my hair cut until next year :))). maybe it can wait even longer? who knows???
For healthy long hair the tips need to be cut every few months(for me around 6). You can generally tell when it's time yourself, when looking at your tips, for split ends.
Yeah, just not getting a haircut for that long is probably a bad idea, I just got excited at the thought of it. I should still get at least a trim every now and again
if you find a good nice hairdresser they can give you useful haircare tips. If you have a rarer hairtype(whatever that may be in your region) prepare look a long time for people who actually can give good tips.

It's funny looking back at it. Of course I had the "absolutely not cis" thoughts back then but there was a never ending well of suppression I could draw on to shrug them off. Only over the last like... 2-3 weeks of my life have I ever even made a decisive effort to actually start respecting myself and actually asking what I wanted. Only once I earnestly believed I could want things and I was deserving of them did the egg finally crack after 2 fuckin weeks
Now I get to do fun trans girl stuff and nobody can stop me :3
but that's so real, i spent years repressing shit but now i constantly look back on being 13 and go "ohhh, that was because i was trans!" about all sorts of shit, it was absolutely impossible to take any step towards really knowing myself without having that ground understanding
