Wigs are unnecessary. Behold!
Edit: if you want, I'd give you mine to make a wig from (after it grows out). It's 3B curly dark ash blonde hair, pretty thick.
I think it depends on your face and the shape of your skull - some people look beautiful bald, but not everyone. I suspect trans women in particular are going to look more like men if they are bald or keep their hair short.
I tell you what, once I've been on the E for a year ill shave my head and report back.
I did that, had fun for few days, dyed my hair pink so I still got mostly she her pronouns used until I spoke (I did not voice train 🤐), but then dysphoria kicked in and I'm still growing it out again 😓
You have awesome energy :3
😘
pls don't 😵💫
You're not wrong! I currently rock a shaved head and sometimes I'm shocked how femme I can look without a head covering. But I'm not exactly young, and I think my scalp needs some kind of covering most of the time.
You are so sweet to offer 😁.
