From ditching fake nails to going makeup-free, the users are proving that beauty comes in many forms and should be celebrated in all its diversity.
Check out six beauty standards many ladies picked:
1. Round/wide hips, BBL
These ladies had a lot to say about the curvy beauty standards.
@whatsit2_yu:
"Having round/wide hips. I don’t see the hype over the BBL shape that’s taking over. There are so many beautiful body types that deviate from that."
@nicorobinspam:
"They don’t look good and everyone who sees them in person knows that it looks horrible bc they never match the rest of the body."
2. Shaving/waxing
Looks like some ladies do not care about shaving their arms.
@Oamolimo:
"Shaving. No one can convince me, even my mother tried and failed. Also make-up, never worn it and never will, i don't see the use of it at all. idc how bad my skin looks, i'm not wearing make up."
@WestEndGrls:
"You’ll never be able to convince me to shave my arms."
3. Lash extensions
Some ladies have found lash extensions to be uncomfortable.
@youseeme4k:
"Lashes. I just feel like it’s a very unnecessary expense."
@_vhee004:
"Lash extensions. I don’t think it’s worth it. Hugh maintenance, high risk of complications, high debit alert. The normal one would glue slaps better in my opinion."
@NoManIsFaithful:
"Lashes because for what? Eyes red and weepy after an install means it’s some shi.t that shouldn’t go on your face."
4. Lace frontal/baby hair
Some ladies are simply over the lace frontals.
@justcallme_bubu:
"Edges and baby hair. It's tiring."
@heavybagofrice:
"Baby hairs that reach your eyebrows… if u have a little forehead why are u doing this. Especially in a wig just cut it more?"
@Here_Vibing_:
"Lace front wigs & we can all see the lace, we just ignore it."

5. Micro-blading
@Bamzy_tee:
"Microblading ,I think I like my brows untouched and besides that thing only looks good in pictures in my opinion."
@jaiykneepharr:
"This micro blading can never be for me."
6. Artificial nails
These ladies find artificial nails stressful.
@Dammie__m:
"I’ve cared about most of them at some point but the idea of artificial nails has always seemed like a hassle to me. Too much work and inconvenience."
@TheKokomma:
"Faux nails is Not my cup of tea."
@born_in_a_movie:
"Getting my nails done. Like I really don’t mind having my natural nails out or just painting over them myself. Doesn’t mean I’m against manicures I’d still get them done for like a special occasion or something but it’s not something I’d really care or stress about."
