relearning how to be feminine

For those who detransitioned/retransitioned to a feminine identity, what helped you get back in the habits of femininity? I mean like shaving your body consistently, making time to do your makeup before you leave the house, styling your clothes in a feminine way (also rebuying feminine clothes), growing your hair out, etc. Obviously this is all very subjective, i'm not saying there's one way to be feminine. And if your idea of femininity radically changed, I'm interested in hearing that experience too. But I genuinely enjoy a lot of traditional femininity, especially wearing makeup. And I'm having a hard time feeling feminine again. I look at other women with such envy, feeling like I can't be like them again. I don't want to be perceived as a masculine woman. And it's a funny position to be in because so many cis women are trying to move away from traditional femininity but for me i'm already so far outside of "normal".

5 weeks post glansplasty by Dr Watt in SF

All the scabs just came off so i figured i could take a nice picture of it. The dissolvable stitches really irritated my skin, I even had skin trying to grow over them instead of falling out. So that's the irritation you see on the edge. Hoping that fades but I'm so thrilled with how it looks regardless. I almost opted out of glans because I didn't want to deal with more surgery but I'm glad I pushed through

cis woman with phalloplasty update!

I've posted in this sub before but wanted to give an update on getting glansplasty about 5 weeks ago. Glansplasty makes a phalloplasty dick look circumcised. It's often done at the same time but my surgeon opts to do it separately to ensure the ridge doesn't flatten. You can see how it looked before in my other post. I went with a circumcised look because phallo doesn't actually give you foreskin and because it's very common where i live so it's what i see the most. Plus glansplasty doesn't have any of the potential downsides that cis circumcision has. My surgeons and doctors don't know that I'm a woman. I identified as a trans man throughout most of my surgery journey. I also had top surgery that i didn't really need in this process. Now I'm on estrogen and live as a woman and i'm thinking about getting breast implants but im still deciding.
