imgur.comYou look amazing! Heck, you looked damn good in girl mode pre hrt and only got better from there. I'm so glad you finally were able to transition and that you seem to be happier than ever!

Thanks! I should have noted that the Pre HRT photo was after about 8 laser treatments. That definitely helped amazingly with my passibility
6
Ah, lucky dark haired girls! I'm at about ten sessions or so but most my hair is light. I don't get any real shadow anyway but still. Did laser get it all?
5
It got the vast majority of it. I still have a few stragglers left. I'm thinking of going back for more, or getting some electrolysis. And I stalked your history, you look great!

Well thanks! First doc appointment on the twentieth! Two and a half years from now hopefully my timeline looks as good as yours. :)

I was just scrolling through r/rising because it's a slow day at work and I saw this post. I'm not part of the trans community since I myself am not trans and don't know anyone who is and I gotta say, that's a damn good transformation(is that what it's called?). Even half way through, all I could see was a girl and a cute one too. Congratz on what looks like a success
12
Aww, thanks! Having people who just stumble across being so nice and positive really means a lot. The correct term is transition, not transformation. But no one would fault you for not knowing terminology when you have no experience in the trans community.
5
Transition, I'll keep that in mind. And I was just being truthful is all
8
Well, I appreciate your truthfulness. It still means a lot to me. :-)
5
Holy fucking shit. You aged in reverse. You look phenomenal, honey! You are so adorable and look like such a sweet person. Internet hugs!
7
Wow you look absolutely amazing!
6
Thank you! :-)

Pretty!

Thank you! :-)

Well, that's pretty damn impressive, and also inspiring to boot! Rock your hair however you wish, because it looks fabulous!
Also, I'm looking forward to "that feeling when boobs" ;)
5
I wish my hair was always fabulous. It's a real pain in the ass. Lol.
Boobs are great! So is the feeling of taking a bra off at the end of the day and throwing it across the room in disgust. Lol
3
Damn Korean genetics, I'm almost 8 months, yet I barely have things that poke out from my chest. Not quite bra time sadly. Damn boymode, even though I'm 99% out.
And as for hair, I just shove it in a baseball cap for a ghetto ponytail. I'm mildly jealous of your hair still.
2
Look at my 8 mo pic in the green shirt. I barely had mosquito bites. Even now, although a solid B cup, they don't look that big. Small boobs definitely isn't the end of the world. Knowing how to dress for them can make all the difference. I'm totes gonna get some implants some time soon though.
As for the hair, It's a curly unruly mess. I have to keep it up or it will literally try to control my life. definitely time for a hair cut. lol
3
I guess. I'm not planning on any surgeries, but voice is my biggest transition problem. It's still pretty damn male and training is haaard. But then again, I'm only 19, so I've got time kind of on my side.
Oof curly hair. You do rock it well though!
3
Amazing and very inspiring!
Saved incase I'll ever find the courage to come out and have to give an example of a very successful transition :)
3
I'm glad I can inspire! That's why I wanted to share this. I wish you the best of luck. The first steps are the scariest. But the reward of getting to be yourself makes it all worth it.
2
You are absolutely beautiful
3
Aww, Thanks! You are absolutely sweet. :-)
1
Every time i look at these timelines i get more hope towards the future.
3
I know what you mean! They really helped me when I was just starting. I totally just stalked your posts and you're already gorgeous, so you don't have too far to go! ^.^
1
Thanks.
1
Amazing! How old were you when you started HRT by the way?
2
Thank you! I was 27 when I started. I'm 29 now and the evil 30 is less than half a year away. >_<
2
Well I think you look amazing and more than passing 😊 did you do a tracheal shave by the way? Your throat looks very smooth!
2
Nope, I've not had any surgeries as of yet. Never had an Adam's apple, just lucky genetics.
2
I'm 29 and just getting started.. this is nice to see :-)
2
Never too late to be yourself! Good luck on your journey. I'm rooting for you. :-)
1
what a brilliant change and such a lovely lady! congrats! you must be so proud
2
Thanks! I am proud, but it was really just luck of genetics.
1
or it's a result of what you've done with your genetics.
3
You cought me! I've been running a genetic splicing operation out of my basement for years.
2
I knew it! you filthy splicers all think you'll get away with it, but we catch you all eventually! run all you want, but you can't hide...
3
You look amazing in the last image. Congrats on such a fantastic transition!
2
Thank you so much!
1
Omfg. Absolutely gorgeous, especially the last picture.
2
Thank you! :-)
1
Dem curls though. Absolutely beautiful.
2
Thanks! Honestly, the curls are more trouble than their worth. I wish I had straighter hair.
1
I'm starting to learn how to deal with mine. How do you straighten it?
2
Get yourself a flat iron and some heat protection cream. That will get your hair nice and straight. I don't straighten my hair fully, usually just the last 7 inches or so. I also use hairspray and a finishing brush after that, to smooth it down and keep it together.

You look incredible. So jealous.
1
Thank you! No need to be jealous. :-)
1
I think you're beautiful. I'm so sad I cannot say the same about myself.
1
We are all works in progress. Don't be sad that you can't see the finished product. Rather be excited to discover just how meaningful the progress is. :-)
1
Looking at the pre- and post- pictures, one thing is abundantly clear, your body is definitely geared better towards being female. The change is astounding and just looks so right. Congratulations on finding yourself.
1
Thanks! I have always been told that I've got a cute girl booty. Even long before HRT. Unfortunately I am still super self conscious about my body, especially my arms and belly. I don't think they like look feminine at all. All in all I do think I make a way better girl than boy, especially since I'm only 5'3 lol.
2
I understand that. I'm 5'7" and life is hard enough being a short male without adding on knowing you're the wrong gender. Don't be too hard on your arms and belly, I have no doubt they look great if you could see them through other people's eyes. ;)
1
I wish I could be 5'7. Life would be so much easier if I could reach top shelves, lol. I try to keep everything in perspective, and I know neither of those things are a terrible hindrance. People do comment on my arms frequently though. I worry that commenting will turn into clocking one day.
1
Problem is, when you're 5'7", you're busy wishing you were 6'. I had so many girls in my lifetime shoot me down for being under 6'. As far as top shelves are concerned, I still struggle with that, so you're not missing out on anything great. Lol. For a woman, I think you're about the perfect height. You're tall enough that your height isn't seen as a shortcoming (pun intended), and you can wear killer heels and not tower over potential suitors. If you don't mind me asking, what is it about your arms that you don't like?
2
You are so freaking pretty!
1
Aww, thanks. :-)
1
I don't know how to phrase this without feeling like it sounds insensitive, so I am really sorry and I don't mean for it to sound like that. I just wanted to ask how do you get your face to have such a feminine angle? It just seems like for people who transition, their face become feminine or masculine, depending on what they're transitioning to. I am really curious and I'm sorry to bother you.
1
The main part about transition is hormones. The hormones change a lot about your body structure. They shrink the tissue between bones and joints and change the way fat deposits on your body. So that leads to an overall feminizing or masculinizing. Of course it also depends on genetics, I always had delicate features. So even before I went on hormones, after getting my facial hair removed, I looked very feminine. So basically luck and hormones.
2
And don't worry. Didn't come off as insensitive at all.
2
Well dang that's legit. You're very pretty btw, thanks for answering my question.
1
Thank you and no problem. Glad I could expand your knowledge a little more

Wow. Life goals.
The good part about hitting rock bottom is that you can only go up from there.
