I am looking for advice to best help my hands look a little more feminine. I just hate my hands. It does not matter how feminine I dress or feel . I look at my hands and get depressed.Β They are not very big but just too wide.. I had lunch with a woman I met while shopping.Β She started her transition two years ago. She is a very lovely woman both inside and out. We just enjoy talking about anything and everything. I noticed her hands .. Her nails wear done not very long but really pretty. She like me had man hands. I did not bring the subject up. Is there any other woman here have the same issue and how did you deal with it.
There is only so much any of us can do with the bodies we have as a result of our growth and maturing over the years.Β Some things can not be changed with hormones or surgery.Β Take care of your skin and get a nice manicure from time to time.Β Don't hate your hands.Β They are part of you.
Hi Stephanie you are right.it the grand picture the only one that really cares about my man hands is me. These hands have provided a good living for two generations of people and still do. I should take care of them with lots of moisturizer and a manicure. Thank you for that simple reminder luv Stephanie
Take care of your skin, hand cream. remove any hair. Take care of your nails, grow them out if you can. and wear jewelry. I also found that in loosing weight my fingers became thinner and as a result looked a bit more feminine.
Look at other genetic women's hands. You will find that there is a wide range and quite a few women do have larger or more manly hands...so do not get too stressed about it.
Hi Justine Thank you for your advice. You are right . I was just being a little crazy. Some days every thing is ok and I like my self and other days everything bothers me. I hope HRT will help me with this emotional roller coaster.Today its my waist . I went shopping for moisturizer yesterday its crazy. I could of spent a hundred dollars if i bought everything i wanted. I still have to work with my hands hopefully not much longer.I ruin every manicure. I tried longer nails there is always one that has to break or chip the first couple of days. My hands are the least of my problems.I guess there is always something to complain about. Thank you for taking the time to respond luv Stephanie
Hi Stephanie,
I shave my hands and wear press on nails. French manicure type. I've gotten a few compliments on my nails from a few friends. The long nails help me feel.i have more feminine hands.
Hugs,
Angela
Hi Angela i was just having one of those hyper - critical days. I am learning if its not my hands its my waist
A month ago it was my hair after i let my hair dresser talk me into cutting my hair shorter. Thank you i was just having a bad hands day ha ha
I think it is important to remember that the size of you hands is not something that you can fix. Undo focus on them isnβt helpful. Beyond a good lotion and a nice manicure (I don't do press-on) there isnβt much else to do. However, what you can do is redirect that energy into something that you can change...
