So, I just had the realization a few days ago that i’m probably trans. I shaved my legs for the first time today and WOW! Physically it feels great, all smooth and soft, but mentally it just feels RIGHT. Like this is something i should have been doing forever. Its kind of overwhelming for such a small thing, but i just felt like i needed to share this with someone. Now i need to figure out how to buy girly clothes that fit…

Also it look forever and im sure i missed the hard to reach places, so id appreciate any pro tips!

    I was overwhelmed when I finished shaving my legs, belly and arms for the first time and ran my hands over my smooth skin and started to cry. I felt so much euphoria. After 2 weeks though I got tired of constantly shaving every 2 or 3 days and the stubble feels so bad. My friends gifted me an epilator for my birthday and I’m so glad that I powered through the pain because now I only need to do it like every 4 weeks and there is no prickly stubble.

      Key point, the pain goes down over time. I think it feels good now, like scratching a deep itch, but I recall holding back yelps when I first tried.

        I use a Braun Silk Epil 9. But how long it takes until your hair regrows depends entirely on your body and not the epilator you use. You can savely assume that it will last 2-4 weeks.
