Zine (Unsolicited Advice)

Unsolicited Advice

Unsolicited advice given to people with curly hair often centers around how to "tame" or "control" their natural curls, reflecting societal beauty standards that favor straight hair. This constant stream of advice can undermine their confidence, making them feel their natural hair is a problem that needs fixing. It can lead to a negative self-image and a sense of inadequacy, as they may internalize the belief that their natural appearance is less desirable.

However, it's essential to recognize that they are beautiful just the way they are, as nature intended. Ignoring unsolicited advice, embracing their natural curls and adopting a "who cares" "پرواہ کسے ہے"  attitude towards such comments, they can foster a positive self-image and self-acceptance.
