buenas. soy ftm y en algún momento de este año quiero hacer el cambio registral. cuál es el problema? mi familia no está al tanto y por ciertas razones tengo que hacerme el pasaporte en estos días. obviamente no quiero hacerlo sin hacer antes el cambio registral, salir del clóset es un quilombo y no quiero apurarme con nada, pero esta situación me obliga en cierta forma a hacerlo. saben cómo es el trámite si hago el pasaporte y después hago el cambio registral? tengo que sacar el pasaporte de nuevo, se me da un pasaporte nuevo gratis, cómo es la cosa. gracias de antemano.

hey! i started growing out my hair again after 8 years of not growing it past my chest (i want it to go past my waist!). i have super thick hair, and a lot of it. i´m currently growing out a very layered cut, so it´s mostly not the same lenght everywhere, but i´m finding A LOT of split ends, some even spliting at 4/5 centimeters of where the actual end of my hair is. everyday i spend some time finding and cutting them, but they do not seem to stop? i pre-shampoo, i use leave-in conditioner, and i oil my hair thrice a week (before i wash my hair). i don´t use heat tools either. but my hair does not look bad at all? my ends look a little bit dryer than the rest of my hair but that´s it. i don´t know what to do!! i don´t want to lose lenght anymore. i feel like i´m doing the most but it just doesn´t work lol. also i live in a very dry area, that´s why i use so many products. i thought that it was maybe my conditioner because i use one for blonde hair. but idk. any advice appreciated.

it all started two months ago. i was doing great! almost at my goal setup in one ear, ready to start with my other one, taking a lot of time between piercings, stretching my lobes, all that. suddendly, one of my triple helixes (which was the newest piercing i got, almost A YEAR OLD) catches a nasty infection. i tried to save it but it almost got infected again after antibiotics so i took it out. a month later i lost the second helix because the jewelry unscrewed for some reason. six days ago, with my ears all good now, i got two lobe piercings, thinking that it will go amazingly, never had problems with my lobes, i took care of them like newborn babies.

i just took out every piercing in my ear except for my conch because one of my lobes GOT FUCKING INFECTED TODAY. it's late at night so i will assess the damage tomorrow but i just took out everything in my ear because it's ALL red and twice the size.

and i'm so bummed. i've been building my dream setup for years. i have a really slow healing process so i was always careful. i couldn't even get my dream setup in one ear, i just lost everything, time and money. i already lowered my expectations with my dream setup but i can't lower them more.

how do i start again after all this? i love piercings. it was always my dream having ears full of piercings. but it just feels impossible with my shit ass body. not even having all the care in the world i can have what i want. i want to know if anyone had this happen and how did you start again. for now i'll just keep stretching my lobes and hoping this new infection heals fast, so i can see if i can restore everything i lost. i'm sorry about the long post but i'm so sad and i don't have pierced friends lol.
