In a world where beauty is often synonymous with conformity, these individuals reject societal pressures to embrace self-love and individuality.

From ditching fake nails to going makeup-free, the users are proving that beauty comes in many forms and should be celebrated in all its diversity.

Check out six beauty standards many ladies picked:

1. Round/wide hips, BBL

These ladies had a lot to say about the curvy beauty standards.

@whatsit2_yu:

"Having round/wide hips. I don’t see the hype over the BBL shape that’s taking over. There are so many beautiful body types that deviate from that."

@nicorobinspam:

"They don’t look good and everyone who sees them in person knows that it looks horrible bc they never match the rest of the body."

2. Shaving/waxing

It looks like some ladies do not care about shaving their arms.

@Oamolimo:

"Shaving. No one can convince me, even my mother tried and failed. Also make-up, never worn it and never will, i don't see the use of it at all. idc how bad my skin looks, i'm not wearing make up."

3. Lash extensions

Some ladies have found lash extensions to be uncomfortable.

@youseeme4k:

"Lashes. I just feel like it’s a very unnecessary expense."

@_vhee004:

"Lash extensions. I don’t think it’s worth it. Hugh maintenance, high risk of complications, high debit alert. The normal one would glue slaps better in my opinion."

@NoManIsFaithful:

"Lashes because for what? Eyes red and weepy after an install means it’s some shi.t that shouldn’t go on your face."

4. Lace frontal/baby hair

Some ladies are simply over the lace frontals.

@justcallme_bubu:

"Edges and baby hair. It's tiring."

@heavybagofrice:

"Baby hairs that reach your eyebrows… if u have a little forehead why are u doing this. Especially in a wig just cut it more?"

@Here_Vibing_:

"Lace front wigs & we can all see the lace, we just ignore it."

"This micro blading can never be for me."

6. Artificial nails

These ladies find artificial nails stressful.

@Dammie__m:

"I’ve cared about most of them at some point but the idea of artificial nails has always seemed like a hassle to me. Too much work and inconvenience."

@TheKokomma:

"Faux nails is Not my cup of tea."

@born_in_a_movie:

"Getting my nails done. Like I really don’t mind having my natural nails out or just painting over them myself. Doesn’t mean I’m against manicures I’d still get them done for like a special occasion or something but it’s not something I’d really care or stress about."
