тАШNot paranoid about it like I used to beтАЩ: Sameera Reddy pens powerful note on hair whitening
Sameera ReddyтАШs social media is all about self-love, body positivity, fitness, and much more. But this time, the actor took to social media to share a powerful conversation she had with her father about growing old and acceptance.
Taking to Instagram, the actor shared how her father asked her why she does not colour her white/grey hair.
тАЬMy dad asked me why IтАЩm not covering my white hair. He was worried about people judging me. I answered тАШSo what if they didтАжdid it mean IтАЩm old? Not pretty? Not groomed? Not appealing?тАЩ I told him that IтАЩm not paranoid about it like I used to be and that freedom is liberating. I used to colour every two weeks so nobody could catch that line of white. Today, I take my own sweet time and choose to colour if and when I feel like,тАЭ she wrote.
She shared that her father went on to ask why she should be the one to change the conversation. тАЬI said why not. I know IтАЩm not alone. The shift and acceptance only begins when old thought processes are broken. When we can just let each other be. When confidence can just find itтАЩs way naturally and not hidden behind a mask or cover. My dad understood as I understood his concern as a father. Every day we learn we move forward and we find peace in small shifts. And itтАЩs those small steps that take us to much bigger places,тАЭ she added.
She shared the powerful note with hashtags like тАШacceptanceтАЩ, тАШhappinessтАШ, тАШself-loveтАЩ and тАШimperfectly perfectтАЩ, highlighting that it is more important to accept oneself and be content than trying to meet unrealistic beauty standards.
