Genderfluid - Need help with being me!

I'm genderfluid (80% female, 20% male) and Sam (the male me) wants me to get a more masculine hair cut. I was Sam yesterday but on most days I'm Hannah. I find it difficult to transition to Sam because my hair is longer and it's difficult to put up. I was thinking of getting my hair cut like this because it's shorter, I think I'd be able to pouff up the front like a quiff and pin it and then put the rest of my hair in a beanie and it'd look more masculine.
Also, if anyone has any ideas of outfits and makeup (I still wear makeup when I'm Sam but not as much) that would make me look more masculine for when I am Sam, that would be great. I also have a larger chest (I'm 36DD) which I find hard to hide when I am Sam, which upsets me as I feel I am male when I am Sam. I'm a UK size 10/12 (which I believe is a US size 8) and my measurements (b/w/h in inches) are 38/30/37.

Thanks!

I'm not quite sure what your asking but I do think that the short hair will look good. As for your chest, you could try a chest compressor. They don't harm you but they do make it easier to be your self! Good luck!

I think thhat hair length would be great (you can still pull it up and you can also dress it up). You could probably go just slightly shorter if you wanted.
For makeup, maybe just get a good contour kit to help emphasize your jaw line and whatnot. You could also go with a brown mascara as it looks quite natural.
As far as the chest, I suggest just getting a good binder! I know someone who is transitioning right now so he basically lives in binders and he says they help a lot
I hope this was atleast a little helpful!

Also I don't exactly know what you could do for the chest part besides maybe wrapping your chest down.

I love the hair cut I think it would be great! the length is perfect for sucking it in, and you can put it up in a pony or low bun.

for the chest, I would invest in good binders. gc2b.co is a website I suggest checking out. (:

hmmmmm for outfits, I really like flannels, and button ups (short sleeve ones too 😍) honestly I would go onto Pinterest and look through outfits to see what you like!

Maybe like a pixie cut which you could then kind of gel to the side like the dude in the picture wearing the purple shirt.

I personally think that the hairstyle you showed would be perfect! It is very gender neutral, so you would feel comfortable either way. Flannels and plain shirts are great for outfits. Beanies and snapbacks are as well. I would invest in a binder. Binders don't hurt and they work very very well. Good luck!!
