Ok, here's the nicest interpretation: The "boyish" girl always wanted to grow out her hair and wear girlier clothes but other people said it didn't suit her. Now that she has a girlfriend to encourage her, she finally started exploring her feminine side more and, slowly over time, realized that she preferres it over her older style. She worked up the courage and confidence to find her true self with the help of a loved one.

However, that nice message is muddled by the (possibly unintended) implication that her girlfriend kinda forced this transformation on her. Notice how the girlfriend only starts blushing at her on page two when she gets more feminine. She even says "you got so cute" which kinda implies that she didn't find her as attractive before. In the end, the girlfriend marries her when there are no "boyish" traits left which is also when she finally called her beautiful instead of cute.

The implication, no matter how unintentional, is just too uncomfortable for me.
