That looks nice. If you look into making some changes, I'd suggest giving your hairs some volume. It'd easily add another % to your femininity, but the amount of effort is tied to your hair type and how you dry them after washing. I'm feeling like you already know that.
Thank you! This is actually feedback I get fairly often, so it's probably a good idea haha. I am always kind of afraid of doing my hair differently for fear that it'll look awful, but there's really no risk to giving it a go! I will blow dry my hair upside down today and see how that ends up lookin'
I hope you love yourself, and this change would bring even more likeness to what you strive to be. Good luck (:
♥️
It’s also just preference, I like your hairstyle and think you look great. Max femininity isn’t everyones goal but still valid of course
Thank you! That's quite true
If it means anything, I find your hair to be very attractive. I get what others are saying and they aren’t necessarily wrong, but don’t take it as gospel cause there are those of us out there that are way into your hair this way.
That is very reassuring to hear, thank you!
