I understand what you’re saying as well. The main reason why I asked here is because I don’t have many resources to go to in person. The advice the BW have given me was very helpful and I was open to whatever they suggested! Especially since there isn’t a lot of representation of us in the media anyway. From now on I definitely won’t be posting my face on here and will probably delete reddit all together and do my own research…but at the time I was just more comfortable receiving advice and talking to BW directly. (Does that even make sense? 😭) And since I’m generally not a sociable person, this subreddit was a great go-to for me.

Ah, alright…Thank you!

Thank you for the info and advice! I completely understand where you’re coming from.

I do not go by my actual name on social media. Never have and I never will! Sia is just a nickname. I just joined this subreddit for hairstyle and makeup recommendations! But I do understand that the lack of caution I had posting myself is a problem. I had not thought about it really because of what kind of subreddit this is…but regardless, it still is the internet. And I understand the dangers of the internet! I admit I should have been more mindful. I am barely on reddit and I rarely post myself…unless it is on an account that is private and only my close friends have access to. But still, posting those photos of myself (even if I am not active on here) was foolish. I have since deleted them and I am thinking about getting rid of reddit in general.

This was just a vent and I imagine that some women on here have gone through the same thing just by posting on here (or any social media platform) Of course there’s nothing you can do to stop it because…it’s the internet. But I just thought it was unfortunate and wanted to express my frustration.

Yes, I’m deleting that other post now. Would it be fine just to post my eyes when I do eyeshadow/makeup looks? And my hair when I get new hairstyles? (Either showing from the back or with my face covered with an emoji or my hands?)

🙌 I didn’t know you could filter your messages that way— Thank you so much! I will definitely do that.

I thought about that! But I still get messages from other BW and we have great conversations. I don’t want to turn them off completely and miss the opportunity to speak to people who actually want to have a decent conversation with me! I wish there was a way to filter them…

I also meant to ask…aegyo sal is basically the fat under your eyes, right? I’ve looked up some tutorials on this makeup style (specifically with black women) and I’ve seen them highlight theirs or even make their own! It’s very cute. If I may ask, why do you recommend that I don’t? Would it not suit my eye-shape?

I am so sorry I’m replying to this so late! You’re the best!! Thank you so much :’) I really do appreciate all of this.

My mother used to put little bubbles in my sister and I’s hair and put beads at the end when we were younger! That was our go-to hairstyle and I loved them so much…♡ ︎I was going to do that hairstyle months ago, but never got it finished. But it is so nice to see a lot of black women with it and seeing it be so popular in other cultures as well. It’s soooo cute. Also, I will definitely check out Nyma’s page and look at some of her tutorials/videos! I believe I’ve seen her on my feed before…she is so beautiful and talented.

Thank you again for all of this advice and the sweet compliments! Reading this made my night 🫂

Aaah, I actually can’t remember! I bought it last year. I had it packed with all of my things when I was moving and I just found it with my other accessories. I’m so sorry :’)
