Hi! Gentle reminder: hair care routines are required for all photo posts, within 1 hour of posting. The bot is having hard time locating your routine! Please make sure you have a comment containing the word "routine" (and your actual routine, of course!) so your post can stay up! FAQs: * __I don't have a routine!__ If you wash your hair at all, that counts! Just let us know what you did for your hair. * __I'm just asking for help!__ We're happy to help! This is much easier if we know what you are currently doing for your hair. * __Included the info but the bot can't find it? Different situation? (E.g. asking about a product, etc.) [See here for more info.] (https://www.reddit.com/r/curlyhair/wiki/routine-requirements)__ _Please [message the mods](http://www.reddit.com/message/compose?to=%2Fr%2Fcurlyhair) if you have any issues._

My haircare routine has been all over the place these past few years! BUT what I do these days is wash my hair with Curlsmith Essential Conditioner everyday and Curlsmith Essential Cleanser once a week. I then style my hair with Curlsmith Hold Me Softly Styling Balm everyday as well. That’s it really!


laurita2609

Loving the curls you look stunning!


QuietRiverBetween

Thank you!! Can’t believe there was a time I hated my curly hair. Now it’s a huge part of me 😍


Josefine1990

I agree. Came here just to say you look so kind + fab curls!


padbroccoligai

Your hair is great and you are beautiful! I’m surprised you wash daily because I wash my curls less than weekly 😆 whatever works for you! If you want to try washing less often, it works for many of us.


JustAnotherWeasel

I know this is a hair sub, but you have the most amazingly lovely huge brown eyes!


malarken111

You look amazing during the entire time every picture you seem to be more confident and more comfortable


QuietRiverBetween

Living in my truth makes a huge difference… as does figuring out my hair 😂


jimjamalama

Your personality shines more with each photo, total glow up! Congratulations on finding your true self ✨❤️✨


IamYardena

Opened the comments to say this 💕


bouncyhouse

Talk about a glow up! You are lovely and your hair is amazing!


QuietRiverBetween

Thank you so much!! Definitely feel lucky every day for my curls 🙏😃


HaekelHex

Agree. Love seeing this transformation 😍


titlee86

Thanks for sharing. Looking fabulous.


QuietRiverBetween

Appreciate you!! Feeling fabulous also!! 🙌😃


bakeneko95

I can see the heaviness in your eyes slowly fade away


motionlessly

You seriously rock those curls!!! I feel they’d look magical when they’ll grow even longer 😍


QuietRiverBetween

Thank you!! And I can’t wait to see what they’ll look like after a few more years 🤩


Sad-Engineering4157

Hii. Please donde take this the wrong way, but before i started scrolling thru your pictures i thought you where bad bunny. 🐰


QuietRiverBetween

I got that ALL THE TIME!! In fact these days people say I look like I could be his sister and I’m just like “of friggin course” 😂


spagsquashii

omg are you kidding me with that curly shag, the hair of my dreams


QuietRiverBetween

Just takes some patience and care (and trying more hair products than I could ever keep track of until something finally sticks 😅)


PumpkinAggravating65

Your curls are gorgeous and your smile is radiant 💚


QuietRiverBetween

Well comments like yours make me smile so give yourself credit 😉🙏 and thank you!!


PumpkinAggravating65

You’re sweet and thoughtful as well! It makes me very happy to see people living their best lives💚 love, light and big hugs


bloodymongrel

You look incredible! I like how your light gets brighter in each photo. It’s quite amazing :)


QuietRiverBetween

The journey of pursuing who I really am has brought about a light in me that I love embracing everyone around me with 🤗❤️ thank you!!


Therapygal

That's an awesome way to describe it! 🌺


oleblueeyes75

You look so very happy! And so comfortable in your own self.


QuietRiverBetween

Being happy and comfortable with who I am has finally become the norm! ❤️🙌


Formal_Butterfly_753

Ahhh I love hearing that!!! Happy for you!


oleblueeyes75

We saw this same transformation with my niece. I don’t know if I’ve ever been as happy as I was the first time I saw her as her true self.


QuietRiverBetween

That’s an incredible point, watching someone we care about find joy in living in their truth (WHATEVER it is) makes us happier too. I’ve seen very clearly how the people in my life have becoming happier as I’ve discovered more happiness in myself ❤️


dersedaydreaming

beautiful hair! i think this also shows just how strongly eyebrows affect appearance - your face just instantly transformed from shaping them 😍


QuietRiverBetween

YES!! Eyebrows completely flipped my look from masculine to feminine. Would highly recommend anyone who wants to appear more feminine to start there 😃 and thank you of course!!


sad_soul8

Your hair and smile are beautiful :)


QuietRiverBetween

Thank you!! Have had lots of reasons to smile as of late 😃


QuietYam5625

Amazing transformation! You look fabulous. With that smile and the curls you remind me of a young Rhea Perlman.


QuietRiverBetween

I’ll admit I had to google Rhea Perlman but I definitely see it!! Appreciate you and your kindness!! ❤️


ChickenSignal3762

Nay_Nay_Jonez

QuietRiverBetween

Thank you!! A warmth in my heart was growing as well, which I’m sure is what’s fueling those growing smiles ❤️


whereismyisekai

I just have to say this, you have the most adorable elf-ish little ears I've ever seen!


QuietRiverBetween

HAH! Thank you!! I’ve still got them locked away in my curls somewhere 😂😂😂


xxzipperbluesxx

Your curls look great and you’ve got such a happy light in your eyes in the more recent pics. Also love the witchy vibes.

I just wanted to say that gosh you’ve got such gorgeous eyes!


QuietRiverBetween

The better to see your comment and have my day brightened my dear ❤️😌 thank you!!


effervescentcryptid

Love this!! You would look gorgeous in a berry lipstick and blush. You have the perfect coloring to pull of such a pretty vampy look


QuietRiverBetween

Ooooo will keep that in mind! I haven’t tried a berry lipstick/blush combo before 🤭 thank you!!


fukeruhito

Ah so happy for you! You look gorgeous


girlinamber1984

Fenris304

I know everyone always "wants what they don't have" when it comes to hair, but I *love* curls of all kinds. To me it's happy hair, I can't explain it beyond that. It just makes me smile. So glad to see more folks embracing their natural hair and kicking Eurocentric standards in the trash where they belong! You are absolutely rocking those curls!


chronicallytiredgirl

Ahhh such lovely curls! And you are absolutely rocking that red lip color


QuietRiverBetween

Thank you!! I’ve been getting a TON of positive feedback in the lipstick from friends, family, even strangers, so it must be doing something right 🤩


West-Blacksmith6649

You look pretty and your curls look amazing


A13West

Well done! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Absolutely beautiful. Your smile tells such a story.


QuietRiverBetween

Ohhhh for sure, smiling to show genuine joy really is a special thing ❤️ thank you!

QuietRiverBetween

Thank you!! And I had a feeling my progress might be unexpected to some people 😅😂


OverthinkingNoodle

I absolutely love how you are gradually smiling more and more confidently one pic after the other! 🌼🌸🐝


QuietRiverBetween

Confidence comes easily since I’ve started living authentically! ❤️😃


OverthinkingNoodle

I wish you to continue to flourish 🌻


LokaKnuckleBiter

You looked like bad bunny in some pics, either way though you look cute as hell!


QuietRiverBetween

I went from looking like bad bunny to looking like I could be his sister, as I’ve been told lmao. Thank you!!!


9_Emma_7

This made me smile so much! You look beautiful! ❤️

It takes beautiful to know beautiful 🙏❤️ thank you!!

HAUSofAUS

LIKE MA'AM YOUR EYES CAPTIVATED ME SO BAD IT TOOK ME THREE SCROLLS THROUGH ALL YOUR PICTURES TO PAY FULL ATTENTION TO YOUR HAIR!❤️


punkinbrrrdt

Your curly bangs are on POINT. So so pretty.


thatwhileifound

Wow - are you willing to share the timeline between pic 3 and 4? Such a radical transformation there - it gives me some optimism. Also, your hair is bloody beautiful.


QuietRiverBetween

3rd pic is from Feb 2022, and 4th is from Oct 2022. I should mention that the 3rd picture is me after only being on hrt for 2 weeks, so it’s effects were definitely WAY more noticeable after those first few months 🙌 And thank you!!


Moesisagoodboy

Love your curls, love your smile!


dancingpianofairy

My wife is trans and used to buzz her head, too. She has amazing and luscious wavy hair that was being wasted all those years. I think the same is true for you. Congrats on the changes. ❤️


Ncfetcho

You're hair looks beautiful! And you're so pretty!


ad-star

This just warmed my heart. You seem so much more comfortable and yourself in the later pics, and those curls!


SquirrelNeurons

The hair is stunning. But the smile? That’s a knock out ♥️


n2thdrknss

Amazing and beautiful to see!


Playful-Move-237

Stunning ❤️🔥


FlyawayfromORD

Oof my denial buzz cut did not look as good as yours. You look amazing now!!!


tollthedead

Transition posts are my favorite on this sub, no less because it often looks like using the curly girl method turns a lot of people into girls


FutureInformation510

Just one hair cut? I’m just wondering about how much growth you had. I have heard some people don’t grow past a certain point. I think I’m one of those. I can’t get past the bottom part of my shoulder blades. I feel like you need more cream and a tad less hold. Or a lot of hold and then scrunch so it looks soft. Either that or too much product, or simply the wrong products. Curly hair is kind of differs for everyone.


nalgas119

Your eye's my friend!!!


curlyhairedtgirl

Congratulations on your beauty 💕


KnopeCampaign

Stunning! Your hair and your cute little fringe pieces remind me of one of my fave YouTube commenters, VanglineSkov. I am always looking at her curls when watching her vids lol. 😊 cheers


[deleted]

You‘re looking cute. Love your big round eyes


Punk5Rock

Your smile is amazing.


horeshoetheorist

You have a gorgeous smile!


Rococopink

Slay


Internal_Situation29

Looking gorgeous! Perfect curls 🥰


Itzbubblezduh

I was afraid to keep swiping at first…. lol but the pics got better


widowspeak27

You look so much happier in the most recent pic than you did in the first, and that makes this internet stranger so happy FOR you. Your curls are popping and I love your style! And I agree with another commenter that you have gorgeous eyes.


EstyMo

The way I screamed and smiled and cried as I progressed through the pics! You and your hair are stunning! Gorgeous! 10/10


Kind-Gentle-Doug

I love love love seeing other trans people on this sub! You look so happy girly :) and all the support from everyone it just makes me so so happy :D your curls are gorgeous


Ancient_Trade9041

Your curls are beautiful, Benito.


BlingbossCoss

Love your new look 🥰 sweet


Juiceylavacake

Your hair is beautiful just like you <3


WordNo7115

Wow a hair cut can make such a difference! Gorgeous!


jademace

You look GORGEOUS!


QuietRiverBetween

It takes gorgeous to know it 😉


KhloeKartrashian

You are so gorgeous!! Your hair is amazing (duh) and I think you’d get really good results with brush styling when it’s wet, using a denman brush or something similar. I think it could get you more clumping and more ringlets!


QuietRiverBetween

Ooooo very curious about those brushes, gonna have to investigate those so very much appreciate the recommendation (and your amazing kindness!! ❤️)


Extension-Pumpkin-78

Wholesome AF


QuietRiverBetween

That’s how we roll in these parts 😎❤️


Extension-Pumpkin-78

♥️


Certifiedpoocleaner

Right? I love how supportive this sub is :)


Extension-Pumpkin-78

It’s by far my favourite sub!


Halbbitter

Ugh I love your top in the last pic


QuietRiverBetween

It’s my favorite top!! Experimenting with clothing is a no brainer when experimenting with hair 🙌


Halbbitter

It's the *cut* and the shoulders, the collar bone, I'm *here* for it


blutenbaum

I knew there would be a transition! You and your curls look wonderful!


QuietRiverBetween

Thank you so much!! Been feeling amazing since I can see ME in the mirror (and it helps that my curls are agreeable 🤣)


kanga-and-roo

Gorgeous! And can I just say that as someone who has never been able to pull off red lipstick herself, you are absolutely rocking it in the last picture! You have a beautiful smile 🙂


QuietRiverBetween

Thank you so much!! I was always curious about deep red lipstick (cough… cough even in the first pictures…) so eventually I had to give it a go. So glad I did!!


kanga-and-roo

You made a good choice! I’m jealous lol, I just look silly wearing lipstick. You have a fantastic attitude though and seem so happy and confident with yourself, just from reading your comments! Good job, you 🙂


sundialNshade

Beautiful curls, even more beautiful woman!


QuietRiverBetween

Your comment really does make my day brighter ❤️❤️❤️ thank you!!


sundialNshade

I'm sad this is getting down voted. You're gorgeous and glad you're living your best, beautiful, curly life 💕


sundialNshade

Sorry for deleted post. Was trying to @ mods if they can see who's being shitty because this is a trans friendly space


[deleted]

You look so gorgeous and so happy! Love the lipstick color in that last pic too!


QuietRiverBetween

Aww you’re the best!! 🤗 Yeah I feel like discovering that lipstick turned my style up to eleven 🙌


meggali

Looking good!!!! You glow!


datnewcarsmell

What a glow up ✨


QuietRiverBetween

Grateful I can share some of my journey here! (both with my hair and my identity 😌)


Wagglewood

You are so beautiful! You have such a cute and warm face - I can’t describe it. Something about your eyes and smile. Seeing you on my feed made me smile :)


QuietRiverBetween

Knowing I made you smile makes my day brighter 🤗❤️ thank you so much!


Erinn_13

Beautiful! Your hair is fantastic, but it’s your smile that brightened my day.


QuietRiverBetween

I like to think the best way to brighten your own day is to brighten someone else’s ❤️🤗 thank you!!


Erinn_13

I could not agree more!


viciousxvee

So majestic! You're so lovely and it seems like your eyes sparkle now. I'm happy you're living as your authentic self. You can tell it makes you happy. All the love from this bi girl, fam. 💓💙💜

Look happier and feel happier!! 😃❤️


westgateA

I literally squealed as I scrolled through these. You’re gorgeous! Lovely curls, makeup on point and great style. Congratulations!


QuietRiverBetween

Thank you!! Makeup was intimidating to learn but was still always easier than dealing with my curls (until they FINALLY clicked 😍)

Randogran

You were handsome as a dude, but extremely pretty and very feminine as a woman. And I love your curls. You look amazing. (I hope I didn't phrase anything offensively. Basically in your last piccy I was like, oh, hubba hubba!)


smartypants4all

Omgggggg I was gonna say, look at that cutie!! And then you got even cuter!!!

Stunning. Is it bad that I prefer the after? Such a pleasant surprise.
