      For me the process of transitioning was getting on hormones, getting some face laser treatments, buying new clothes and makeup, and the rest was just emotional adjustment.

      At this point I don't give a fuck about passing or body hair or my voice, which was all stuff I was really worried about for the first year or so. Eventually I came around to "gender is fake and I'm just going to do what makes me comfortable".

      Granted, it took a lot of fretting and experimentation to get to this point, but if you can find the things that are maximum gender euphoria for minimum investment things look a lot less bleak very fast.

      Pretty much exclusively dating other trans/gnc people also is a big help.

      (see my username) you've probably heard this already but just in case: shave after a couple minutes in a hot shower, try to use shaving cream and only use each blade once (make sure they're very sharp). only shave against with the grain, apply little to no pressure and moisturize afterwards, you should be fine!

        Shave WITH the grain to prevent ingrown hairs, shave against only if you know what you're doing to get a closer shave.
