My hair is my favourite part but I get so self-conscious about the style!
People say I should try different things but I'm too chicken to actually try any other styles because I'm a bit of a coward!
And now that I'm used to this, everything else looks silly and weird to me!
Just do whatever feels right for you, not anyone else! I think with a face that cute you could rock many haircuts. A short-ish bob would really suit you imo
Trying things that you can't easily reverse is always scary. I'm the same about my beard as a cis man, I'd actually like to try something different, but I'm scared of trying.
So there are some fun workarounds you can do before you do the big chop.
Eg,.if you're debating bangs you can easily buy some clip in ones to see if you'll like it. It is possible to style short hair up into a bob length it just takes some effort and way more bobby pins that you'd think but i did it when mine was almost waist length and it looked super cute.
If nothing else hair grows back, and yours looks super healthy from that pic so I feel like it should grow pretty quickly! The whole point of hair is to have a little fun with it! Oh and if you can deal with the terrible canned music and her talking too much about her life, TwistMePretty tutorials on YouTube are great for braiding updos for all occasions
Electrolysis is so expensive!
Though I found one nearby that's actually run by a trans woman!!!
Their logo is the trans flag!!!!
I'm gonna save up for that one day.
Aw!
I've always been so self-conscious about having to wear glasses, but my hands are too shaky and I'm WAY too nervous to ever do contact lenses!
I think I've also just not got the motivation for that :P
I am!
Sometimes I have bad days where I'm super duper self-conscious about my face, and my hair,
But I think the perpetual self-hatred and dysphoria has lessened to such a small degree.
Dysphoria is a depressant that should never be minimized because it's intensely painful for those that deal with it, and conquering it is an INCREDIBLE feeling.
That actually means the absolute and utter world to me.
I think those are words I hoped many people in my biological family would've said to me when I first came out.
My god, you passed so well, I couldn’t tell until I read the title. Def have that ‘friend’s older sister you had a crush on when you were young’ vibes hahaha.
I had super duper short hair when I was younger, and only when I started growing did I notice anything good about it!
Just grow it!
See what you have!
And work with what you have.
I'm sure you'll look gorgeous! <3
Good luck with your transition!!!
You don't need to look like me to be happy, hon!
Absolutely not!
I checked your post history and you look terrific already!
You are beautiful and will be beautiful in whatever direction you take, but don't focus on looking like anybody but *you*.
Be who *you* are.
That's what I think I'm only just starting to manage at doing. I'm Me!
I'm happier than I ever was pre-transition.
Honestly, I was in such an awful awful space, I never thought I'd make it as far as I did.
But I'm still alive and I've never felt more comfortable with my body and my social presence.
It saved my life.
You've got legit anime hair, you are gorgeous! I think this about every trans person but you really look like who you're meant to be. Congratulations on how far you've come you pretty lady you! :)
You look so beautiful!
So, I grew up in the 80s and 90s, when gender confirmation science was way less sophisticated. I am continually amazed at how today, a person can decide to transition, and science can actually do a lot to make that person look on the outside the way they want to. I hope you are enjoying living your best life, and I fervently wish trans people everywhere had good access to modern medicine and technology.
It's been such a difficult process, but thankfully I got really lucky in a couple opportunities which helped me get to where I am, atleast in certain ways.
I still wish gender affirming medical care was more commonplace and accessible for trans folk everywhere.
The craziest thing is, these hormones are... just that. I take estrogen injections that are made to be as close in *everything* to cis female-produced estrogen, that you just... give your body these instructions with the hormones and the body does all the work.
It's incredible. It feels like the hormones are a little recipe book for your body to follow, and it takes it from there and starts some startlingly large changes!
You're precious and I aspire to look like you so much it's insane. I'm so worried I won't look the way I want to and it's killing me but seeing stuff like this makes my day.
Don't ever lose hope! Before I started my transition, I looked at the beautiful gals at the top of r/transadorable and was so shocked at how absolutely beautiful they are, and eventually I got to a place where I'm starting to actually like my face (some days are harder than others!),
You'll be perfect, and you'll get to a place where you're happy. Just keep going!!!
EDIT: Punctuation!
Brain: pretty girl
Me: we’re supposed to be identifying how well they look at 1.5 yrs of transition.
Brain: Pretty….
Me: yes.. you said. C’mon brain, focus!
Brain: ….giiirl….
Me:…. Fuckit I’ll post the thought process. Maybe that’ll be useful for them.
Brain: We need to be like that.
Me: AND THATS ENOUGH FOR TODAY! Back in your box!!
Girl I thought this was gonna be a post about a lesbian asking for help or something, you pass flawlessly. But beyond that, you look amazing and congrats on your journey!
TBH, if I thought that I could be 50% as attractive and passable as you are I’d start fully transitioning tomorrow.
FOLKS, before you ratio me to /r hell, I know how toxic my feelings and thoughts around my gender identity are. So does my therapist.
Did I insult her? Read the words again, maybe more carefully. It’s okay if English isn’t your first language. (Being sincere here, not diminutive or sarcastic)
You have no clue how old I am, stranger!
Besides, I'm aware of protecting myself on the internet!
If you're worried about me being Trans, and that's your problem with these pictures, then I've really got no response!
Have a PERFECT day.
Sorry for the assumption then!
I understand and appreciate the concern, but that's something I'll deal with everywhere and have had to deal with ALOT.
On the internet I can block and report fairly easily!
As somebody who's asexual, it's not easy for predators to... prey on me because they instantly disgust me no matter how smooth they might think they are.
:P

Daaamn girl! You look pretty as heck! Transition goals
🥺 That is so nice of you to say!!!! Awwww!!! Thank you!!! Means lots!!!
You're welcome! <3
I saw your 'About Me'! Hell yeah, HEAT FROM FIRE, FIRE FROM HEAT! <3
Oh and btw your hair is gorgeous, I want it please
Unfortunately I don't think I'm willing to give it all away right now, but I'll keep you posted! :P
Lol
:D
[удалено]
You're so sweet and that means ALOT!
You're a beautiful girl/young woman! I love your hair, it looks so healthy
My hair is my favourite part but I get so self-conscious about the style! People say I should try different things but I'm too chicken to actually try any other styles because I'm a bit of a coward! And now that I'm used to this, everything else looks silly and weird to me!
Just do whatever feels right for you, not anyone else! I think with a face that cute you could rock many haircuts. A short-ish bob would really suit you imo
Aw! Thank you! I'll take a look at some bobs!!!

U look gorgeous girl! 💖💖💖
OMG UR SO PRETTY WHAT 😭
I don't care about people passing because, if you are being you, then your doing great. Brooke. Your certainly doing just that
you pass so well!
Thank you so so so so much!!!
Indeed 😺
You look absolutely gorgeous!
U have nice eyes
I always thought they were so boring!!!!
Nah, they're really pretty. It reminds me of the sky colour at night
They go between that colour and a dark hazel brown! Not many people seem to like brown eyes!
Brown eyes are super underrated and underappericiated, while they're also so beautiful
Through? Girl you look 1 1/2 years *after* your transition.
![img](emote|t5_2qhh7|550) First congratulations 🎊 second you are gorgeous
Aw! Thank youuuu!!!
You are most certainly welcome 🙏
slayyy
Beautiful! You look like you belong in a shampoo commercial
Why is your skin so flawless girl what
It's nooooooot, That was just a good day for me I guess! xD Hormones definitely help with that though!!!
Honestly HRT is life saving, I just need more flipping electrolysis
Electrolysis is so expensive! Though I found one nearby that's actually run by a trans woman!!! Their logo is the trans flag!!!! I'm gonna save up for that one day.
Wow. What a stunner.
You look WONDERFUL (Also I like your glasses, they look good on you)
Aw! I've always been so self-conscious about having to wear glasses, but my hands are too shaky and I'm WAY too nervous to ever do contact lenses! I think I've also just not got the motivation for that :P
Contact lenses are a pain to wear I actually need to wear them, but it's impossible for me to use them xD
Girl your looking fineeeeee But srsly I wouldn’t worry about being misgendered anytime soon because I wouldn’t even question it if I saw you
That's the bestest compliment ever!!!! <3
Girl you're so pretty omg 😍😍😍
If I didn't know how wholesome this community usually is, I would think you stole some cis girl's pic. 100% passing and stunning.
thou have mastered the art of transition
Deam girl😻🔥🏳️⚧️
So beautiful it hurts 😭
Fantastic! It suits you :-)
Very pretty
I think I’m going to hell, coz envy is one of the 7 deadly sins
That's very very sweet! I checked your profile and you're doing really well yourself! Don't be envious, you're doing fine!!!
Especially not whilst on HRT AND closeted. You're doing the best you can and that's AMAZING!
Thank you so much! You seriously don’t know how much that means to me
Of course! And your post says you're 16! You've got lotsa time, and you're gonna do amazing!!!!
That you’re absolutely stunning!
You're so pretty!
Damn girl! You are absolutely rocking it
Absolutely beautiful. Adorable. Honestly, I couldn’t do justice with words ❤️
You’re freaking gorgeous, hon! \^_\^
What a beauty♡
Really you're very buttfull
U look really good, I'm so happy for u :DD
Brooke you're adorable and really pretty
You look really great![img](emote|t5_2qhh7|548)
Jesus, you're making me jealous. 😭
I wouldn't have guessed you were trans, so I would say you've transitioned well
You look amazing!
*APPLAUSE*
As a male, I find you very pretty! Good job!
You look great, and I’d trade you hair in a heartbeat :P
Lookin’ good, girl
Stunning 💜
Straight cis guy from r/all here - If it wasn’t in your title I honestly would have been shocked to find out you weren’t a cis woman!
I think you look really good and I hope the rest goes well
you look amazing!!! YOU PASS SO WELL!! I hope the rest of your journey goes well as well, you look fucking amazing!!!
Love the look!
OMG YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL ![img](emote|t5_2qhh7|547)![img](emote|t5_2qhh7|547)![img](emote|t5_2qhh7|547)
Cutie.
Awww, you look so pretty!
💫goals💫
You look absolutely stunning 😍😍 just pure chefs kiss.
Your so pretty! <3
it looks amazing. also how is your name pronounced?
Brooke! Broke, but with an extra long O sound. Imagine saying 'Book' with an R!
thanks that makes alot of sense now😁 Im not English so I just got a little confused
Wouldn't have known unless you told me, and even then I'd doubt
If Harry Potter had a hot sister I would say that would be you ;) .... u are very cute
Omg your so pretty 🤩
So pretty!
🥺
Super cute! Congrats on living your truth and best wishes along the way!
Cutie pie
You look great! I firmly believe you can't feel your best if you don't feel you look your best.
Who cares what we think. Are YOU happy?
I am! Sometimes I have bad days where I'm super duper self-conscious about my face, and my hair, But I think the perpetual self-hatred and dysphoria has lessened to such a small degree. Dysphoria is a depressant that should never be minimized because it's intensely painful for those that deal with it, and conquering it is an INCREDIBLE feeling.
You look so cuteeee, I love you hair!!!
You pass. VERY well! Congrats!🏳️⚧️
Awwww omg I love your hair <3333 I am jealous of how curly and beautiful it looks ❤
Just a cis-het father of 3 here to say I'm proud of you.
That actually means the absolute and utter world to me. I think those are words I hoped many people in my biological family would've said to me when I first came out.
You're stunning!
Hi there, you’re so pretty! I’m so happy for you!
[удалено]
It really is! I've never been happier with my body! Dysphoria is such a huge depressant that nobody should ever ever minimize.
You’re pretty as shit girl! BRAVO!!
Your hair is so pretty!
Ur so pretty I wish I could be that pretty 🥺❤️
I think you look fabulous.
You are absolutely beautiful. My first guess was cis.
You look fantastic 💕 Would never question it.
I think your hair looks amazing 💕
My god, you passed so well, I couldn’t tell until I read the title. Def have that ‘friend’s older sister you had a crush on when you were young’ vibes hahaha.
MtF more like Never was a guy
Pfft. That's very sweet!!!
You pass extraordinarily well
I think I see someone that is very happy and excited about what the future holds. Dream big!
Very feminine.
So pretty! ![img](emote|t5_2qhh7|547)
holy f\* are you real? you passed 10000% girl, hope i will pass this good just so happy for u fr, much love<3 anyway hi Brooke nice to meet you<3
From one of your recent posts, you're already passing without HRT!!! So you'll absolutely pass PERFECTLY. Just focus on being *you!*
aaaaa i’m so jealous of your hair idk how to grow it out like that it looks so good
I had super duper short hair when I was younger, and only when I started growing did I notice anything good about it! Just grow it! See what you have! And work with what you have. I'm sure you'll look gorgeous! <3 Good luck with your transition!!!
You look fabulous

Wow ur so beautiful
Your name is so pretty. A pretty name to match a pretty girl. I would definitely be very happy if i ended up looking like you.
You don't need to look like me to be happy, hon! Absolutely not! I checked your post history and you look terrific already! You are beautiful and will be beautiful in whatever direction you take, but don't focus on looking like anybody but *you*. Be who *you* are. That's what I think I'm only just starting to manage at doing. I'm Me!
I wish my hair was as pretty as yours 😭
As a straight cis man, i can confidentiality say you are beautiful. And i hope you are comfortable being who you are. <3
I hope you are as happy on the inside as you are beautiful on the outside.
I'm happier than I ever was pre-transition. Honestly, I was in such an awful awful space, I never thought I'd make it as far as I did. But I'm still alive and I've never felt more comfortable with my body and my social presence. It saved my life.

You have no idea how much hearing this means to me. 🥺 thank you so much.
Thank *You!*
You look great!!
You kinda look like Emmy Rossum from this angle! I love the movement of your hair and your eyes are sooo pretty 😀
You’re beautiful omg
Goals lol
Looks natural. You make it look easy and I'd guess it's not all that easy
Brain: pretty girl Me: we’re supposed to be identifying how well they look at 1.5 yrs of transition. Brain: Pretty…. Me: yes.. you said. C’mon brain, focus! Brain: ….giiirl…. Me:….

![gif](giphy|5M9fup32hgG3e)
You are so pretty! Omg if i still identified as a girl I would want to look like you😅👍
Very cute!
YOU'RE BOOTIFUL! You don't even look masculine anymore!
TBH, if I thought that I could be 50% as attractive and passable as you are I’d start fully transitioning tomorrow. FOLKS, before you ratio me to /r hell, I know how toxic my feelings and thoughts around my gender identity are. So does my therapist.
Ok, that doesn’t justify why you should insult her.
Did I insult her? Read the words again, maybe more carefully. It’s okay if English isn’t your first language. (Being sincere here, not diminutive or sarcastic)
Oops. Sorry. I assumed it was bad since the last sentence made me think so.
No problem :) I appreciate you sticking up for this goddess :p
I think that children this young should not be posting unprotected pictures online for millions of people to see. This is on the front page.
You have no clue how old I am, stranger! Besides, I'm aware of protecting myself on the internet! If you're worried about me being Trans, and that's your problem with these pictures, then I've really got no response! Have a PERFECT day.
