This Blog is gonna be all about HAIR! And I don't mean the Musical. For a Transgender in transition or even outside it! Hair is a burden and well, a BIG pain. There is so much to go through on this I don't know where to begin! I may even leave things out. If I do I just write another blog LOL.
Let's start with the hair on the head shall we. Its the most visible after all. It seems most of us in Transition start to grow our hair out ASAP! It's one of those stigma's or beliefs that long hair makes you look or appear more feminine. I know with me I just wanted long hair! Ever since I saw Wayne's World and they head banged to Bohemian Rhapsody(Not the only reason) I wanted long hair. That and I am a METALHEAD! But those where just fancies and excuses I through out at others. I was covering up me. The real me.
Anyways as we circle around from the top of the head we come to the face. YUCK! Its the facial hair. For a lot of us its number 1 on our hit list to GO! At least of the things we have control of. However Electrolysis isn't cheap nor is laser therapy. So some of us go PLUCK, PLUCK, and then we jump as if we been GOOSED! Because our nerves become shell shock and say NO MORE!
As for other Hair along the rest of the body Chest, arms, and back. It reverts to a light finer hair. At least if we lucky and not SUPER HAIRY like SASQUATCH! Which is one of the reasons I am writing this blog. I guess I am lucky. The hair on my arms is thinning out and turning into that nice fine hair! It gives me hope for my chest. I really don't want to look like Harry Henderson.
As for the legs most of us are content to continue to shave them. After all its part of being a Woman, and it isn't half as bad as shaving the face near a major artery LET ME TELL YOU!
Well I am Alice, and these are my Hair-Brained Journey's! Till Next Time No Pain No Gain!
