In a society frequently pressuring individuals to conform to specific appearances, Esther vehemently champions self-acceptance and fostering a positive body image within ourselves. Fearlessly, she wholeheartedly embraces her innate self. As a consequence, she has emerged as an influential role model.

Throughout her remarkable journey, Esther’s deeply cherished aspiration is to discover a partner who will embrace her body hair without passing judgment or subjecting her to shame.

How it all started.

Before wearing a swimsuit, Esther always shaved off her body hair. She felt insecure about the bumps and scars it caused. Removing hair was tedious, and she was unhappy with her body. She even avoided swimming because of this. In 2019, she decided to embrace her natural hairiness and not feel ashamed anymore.

Shaving properly doesn't give you scars

Esther recognized the societal and beauty industry pressures imposed on women to eliminate body hair, despite it being a natural aspect of their bodies. In 2022, she set out to defy this by visiting the beach without removing her body hair, an act that filled her with a sense of pride and liberation.

As time passed, she developed a deep love and appreciation for her body and its natural hair. Presently, she understands that beauty ideals evolve, and she has the power to define beauty on her terms. Esther’s journey serves as a source of inspiration for others, encouraging them to embrace and cherish themselves just as they are.

Misunderstanding from others.

Esther’s choice not to shave her body hair has faced criticism of some people, yet she remains steadfast in her conviction. On one occasion, she engaged in a conversation with a gentleman who asserted that women should refrain from having body hair due to hygiene concerns.

In response, she queried whether it was equally acceptable for men to have body hair, a question that rendered him momentarily speechless as he had not previously contemplated that perspective.

Criticism from others became particularly evident when she ventured to the beach. Despite the lingering stares and judgmental gazes, she valiantly opted to embrace her natural self. It marked her inaugural experience of donning a bikini at the beach, her hair proudly on display, and it kindled a surge of pride within her.

As she strolled along the shoreline, she couldn’t help but notice a group of people fixating their gaze upon her. Instead of succumbing to self-consciousness, she summoned the courage to offer a friendly wave. In that very moment, Esther came to the profound realization that her journey of self-acceptance had bestowed upon her the strength to unapologetically be herself, regardless of the opinions held by others.

She’s looking for someone who will understand her.

Esther looks back on her journey with body hair and feels lucky to have had a supportive partner before embracing her natural self. She shared with them that she was very hairy, and they were totally fine with it.

“I want to be with someone who isn’t ashamed of walking around with me, and I’ve never been with anyone that was ashamed,” says Esther. She longs for a partner who will proudly be by her side.

Recently, Esther enjoyed a delightful encounter on a dating show titled “Dating Different,” during which she had a thoroughly enjoyable time with her date. This experience reaffirmed her belief that there are individuals who genuinely value her for her authentic self. Her optimism in discovering a partner who wholeheartedly accepts and embraces her distinctiveness without passing judgment remains undiminished.

Even beauty standards like Cindy Crawford sometimes doubt themselves. What can we say about people like you and me? Insecurity is a frequent companion for many people. But it is in our power to overcome fear and accept ourselves fully. After all, how beautiful is the world, where each person is unique. Isn’t it?

Since when does shaving give you scars?
