I hear your pain. If my legs were any whiter, you'd see through them. On the plus side, you can look forward to the two days a year that it's shorts weather in England

dislike shorts.
True!
Secret Satan's Wishlist!
on you or on everyone?
Also shorts
I love them.
Satans..... hints..... I'm a mo bro!
there have been some good ideas in this thread, I do encourage you to give some of them a shot - some of them look a bit complex but there are easy/simple ones, too!
plus, short hair is totally in this season, what with all the bobs and pixie cuts; it may not be precisely what you're after but the awesome thing is that your face would totally suit short hair with just a little bit of help, such as a hairdryer + mists or sprays or even a smidge of mousse or wax!
Lowlights aren't as drastic. If anyone asks, well hey, slight shifts in hormone levels will do things to your hair, Your haircolor doesn't stay the same throughout life. My hair was darker for all of two months because who the fuck knows.
This is true, however I got a case of the chicken legs.
-I am The Alpha and The Omega-
puberty + chlorine + sunlight + chlorine-flushing shampoo = potential bleaching
That sounds like a horrible disease!
Truly I became the big animes.
Hahaha
My hair turns lighter in summer, not very exciting but I'll tell you all anyway.
No dice
Satans..... hints..... I'm a mo bro!
That don't matter.
Lighten it and then go, well I've been outside a lot thus past couple of weeks, that must have done it.

I'm not going to pretend like I have the answer, but if the time comes for you to move on with your life and you are afraid for your personal safety because of your Dad? Well, there are ways and means of keeping him the fuck away from you.

Hoping it doesn't come to that but I just don't know what to do
Guh
They only work on blondes and redheads with compliant hair. Those shampoos wont work on brunettes. You can not lighten your hair without bleaching it, hence lowlights.
Here is your shopping list:
Round brush.
'Quills' versus 'Bristles' and solid-core versus hollow aerated cores doesn't matter much until you start working with heat. A quilled round brush is more useful for simply brushing our your hair though.
Amazon lists that one at $5 but you can get them at dollar stores. I never noticed a difference between cheap and expensive quilled round brushes.
Bobby Pins
Goody, Scunci, and Conair brand bobby pins are good. So long as you recognize the brand the pins and probably good. $3-$4.
Hairspray
I dunno why the hell people rag on Aquanet. It is the cheapest hairspray you'll find and I used it to set bodypaint so it wouldn't rub off on everything I touched. Bitch worked. It is like, $2.
Shine Serum
Probably the most inconspicuous hair product you can use. I can't recommend any particular item but I will say: don't discount the less expensive brands. My nanna works at a cosmetics and personal-care lab, and the same machinery and vats of ingredients are used for both the high end and low-end products. Aside from the packaging, sometimes the only difference is the color and fragrance.

I don't know what your hair is like but that link is a spot-on assessment of the different kinds of hair styling products
You frame conditions in terms of your dad a lot but you seem to be close with your mom, maybe you should try having a convo with her, she'll know better than we do about your situation.
Honestly
I try seeking help from my mom but she doesn't usually bother
She's mostly concerned about how things affect her and doesn't like "standing between" me and dad
Gonna be saving these posts from you guys
But the other ladies here are right - there is lemonade to be made here. You still have a lot of length there, which is totally style-able. I don't want to sound insensitive, but I feel like a lot of trans girls think that long hair = girly. Which would be unfortunate for me since I cut all of mine off!
Being girly is more about styling than length. Just having long hair doesn't make you a girl, and it doesn't necessarily make you feel girly. But styling your hair in a feminine way? I dunno about everyone else but that makes me feel girly.
You can TOTALLY style that hair into a super cute bob. It just takes a little work, and yes, this thread can totally help. I think you can do it!
I'm sorry if that came out the wrong way, I don't want to offend. I just want you to see that this cut is not the end of the world. I wish I could be there to give you a hug.
