Do you want to look younger, prettier, and more feminine? If so, try changing your hairstyle! There’s no easier way to improve your appearance.
The secret is to choose a hairstyle that helps soften strong facial features (like a prominent nose or jaw) while making your eyes and lips pop! Your hair should also be in proportion with your overall body size.
Read on to discover the top 6 hairstyles for crossdressers and transgender women. These style tips apply whether you wear a wig or rock your own natural hair.
1. Side swept bangs

| Candis Cayne, Transgender Actress |
Bangs are a great option since they draw attention to your eyes while hiding a prominent brow ridge. Bangs also make you look cute and youthful! Straight bangs can highlight angular facial features, so go for soft, side swept bangs instead.
2. Layers

Layered hairstyles tend to be much more flattering than hair that’s all one length. Face framing layers soften your features and add texture and volume to your hair.
3. Soft waves
 |
| Laverne Cox, Transgender Actress and Activist |
Soft waves are super sexy and feminine. Waves also add volume to your hair, making thin hair appear fuller. Most crossdressers and transgender women look great with full, wavy hair that balances out strong facial features and a larger body frame.
4. Shoulder length hair
 |
| Caitlyn Jenner, Transgender Celebrity |
Shoulder length hair is the best option for most women, including transgender women. Hair that’s too long drags down your face and looks “old Barbie” after a certain age, while hair that’s too short can look masculine. Shoulder length hair is very feminine and help conceal a strong jaw and thick neck.
5. Side parts
 |
| Carmen Carrera, Transgender Model and Actress |
Middle parts can be tricky since they make your face look longer and highlight your nose and chin. Side parts are more flattering and can be worn by anybody with any face shape.
6. Highlights

Finally, don’t forget about color! Highlights brighten your face and look softer than a single block of color. There are lots of options besides blonde highlights – women with dark hair look fantastic with light brunette or auburn highlights.
Make everyday a good hair day!
Nothing can boost your appearance like a fabulous hairstyle. As you can see from the tips above, the key is to think SOFT – soft cuts, soft texture, and soft color – to balance and feminize your features.

My hair grows so slowly due to my health issues that I’m still growing it out after three years. I still wear wigs most of the time, but I often style my hair so that both my natural hair and wig blend together so that I get compliments and jealous comments from those who think it’s natural. I wish! It hasn’t been that thick since I was 17. Happy 2021!
Love dressing up . Makes me feel like the person I should be.
You look beautiful!
I have a layered bob now (chin length) which feels awkward to me. I tried not cutting my hair for six months, but the bottom two inches got frizzy somehow. What I have my heart set on is a very tight permed bob at shoulder length, but UGH! it’s going to take F O R E V E R to get there at this rate!
Due to the virus. My last was in December. Third week in AUGUST. My wife took me to her beautician. They talked, I now have a medium length Pixie cut.
I won a genetic lottery with a feline nose and large eyes with thick soft natural wavy hair! I keep it shoulder length with wispy bangs and soft curls in the winter and a cute pixie cut with soft curly bangs in the summer.
