When I was younger, I spent so much time doing everything I could in order to fit unachievable beauty standards; straightening my hair, tweezing my eyebrows, putting on make-up. I remember how gutted my mum was the first time I straightened my hair. She used to tell me I was beautiful every single day just the way I was, and that’s given me so much confidence to be who I am today - Marlyee, 28
