Yeah but the entire point is that hairdressers get that reaction you’re describing from clients who … well, happen to be women and the person in that comic isn’t a woman. That’s the entire point, that hairdressers really struggle to respect the gender identity of AFAB trans people. It’s super widespread. Every time i look in localized trans online spaces, i keep seeing posts by trans dudes and transmasc nonbinary people who desperately ask for trans inclusive hairdressers in the area because they reliably get a pixie cut every time they explicitly show a picture of a haircut as an example, and all the explaining doesn’t help them at all, it goes exactly like in the picture. Apparently it’s super fucking hard to find cooperative hairdressers as a transmasculine person who will just respect your gender instead of trying to feminize you.
