proudnb<p>Transitioning can be more than moving from one end of a binary to the other. </p><p>There are all sorts of ways that nonbinary people transition. Some journeys are essentially the same as binary women and men. Others take a winding path that includes some changes and not others. Still more will go through cycles of change.</p><p>There are as many ways to go through a nonbinary transition as there are nonbinary people, and all are real options.</p><p><a href="https://todon.nl/tags/NonBinaryPositivity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NonBinaryPositivity</span></a> <a href="https://todon.nl/tags/NonBinaryPride" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NonBinaryPride</span></a> <a href="https://todon.nl/tags/NonBinary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NonBinary</span></a> <a href="https://todon.nl/tags/transitioning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>transitioning</span></a> <a href="https://todon.nl/tags/GenderAffirmingCare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GenderAffirmingCare</span></a></p>

Prism & Pen<p>To achieve permanent hair removal, there is only one FDA-approved option — electrolysis. This procedure is done by a technician who inserts a thin probe into the follicle and applies electric current.
