I sometimes think that when people have a lot of work done it actually has the opposite affect and makes them look older!
Yes too much doesn’t make people look better necessarily
Have to tell you these long form talks are some of your best work. Really enjoy this. Makes you think. Hopeyou do more.
100%! I’ve always said that “alienized” face look will make you look 45 no matter if you’re 22 or 60
And whats wrong with old😘🧡
Example Darcy & Stacy
Wow, quite a subject to tackle, Shelby--and you did a great job! As a senior person who has in the past, benefited from this "privilege," I would like to add something really important: While there is nothing wrong with wanting to look one's best and even doing things from coloring your hair, to wearing flattering makeup, to having surgical procedures to boost one's confidence, don't forget to nuture your character along the way. Because there WILL come a day when even the best of looks fade and you become somewhat "invisible" to the world, no matter how hard you try. So those, (like you Shelby), who put as much effort into enhancing their character, having compassion for others and always learning, will still feel connected to the world and relevant when that "pretty privilege" expiration date comes around. And believe me, aging hits hardest on the ones who always had pretty privilege. So we'd better make sure our main focus of self-improvement is on the inside!
Absolutely. And one of the saddest realizations one will never know until they might get there, is when we are young, vulnerable and exponentially self-critical, we may not feel we look as pretty as (say) the most popular girls in school as we are "ripening" into our own maturity, only to become real beauties maybe 10 years down the road!
I’m 40 years old so no longer young
I lived this! My sister was the pretty one and growing up in a small town I heard on at least a weekly basis, "Is that your sister? She's so pretty! You don't look nothing alike!" It wasn't until I was in my late 20s that I came into my own. Of course I had moved to a different coast, different friends, and learned to appreciate me the person, not just the outer appearance!
I feel this. Growing up my sister was always considered the pretty one while I "only inherited the bad stuff". Even my own family used to point that out...
Same here... And my sister always told me that I can't be pretty and intelligent the same time... therefore... I felt ugly. But now, many many years later I realized that everything wasn't true. While beauty still lies in the eye of the beholder, I was far from being really ugly... And if we got compared now... Well, I needed years to boost my confidence (which is still broken) but I realized now that my sister was just damn jealous of me, I never got that. I always looked up at her as my idol and tried to be like her... well, as I got older I saw the real person... drug addicted and a liar... never apologized to me for anything she did. But it took years for me to realize that. Sometimes people just follow a beauty standard which might not be even yours and then they are just disgusting by telling another person ugly because they don't fit into their beauty standard. I saw that with many people who were really very pretty in my opinion, be it male or female. I am actually quite happy that I don't look like my sister now =)
People often forget that you can die during plastic surgery. Kanye Wests mom died during a surgery.and so did Joan Rivers
Think the last one was on purpose..... just saying she was saying some stuff before hand🎉
People know but they don’t care ! I want hella plastic surgery to look like Kylie J and I’m not changing my mind anytime soon !
You can die during any surgery though.
So the summer between 9th and 10th grade, I turned 15 years old I sprung up from 5'8" to 6'2". My hair and face came together too. At that point, girls that used to bully me were suddenly clearly interested in me. It didn't matter that in May of that same year they were shitting on me. Even grown women would suddenly pay attention to me in a manner that I didn't really recognize at the time. Even today it still applies. People want to please me. I slide through airport security without issue. I'm an executive at work. It's real, even for men.
Your post reminds me that the height of US Presidents has been above the average for American men. Height in men certainly brings a positive bias.
are we talking about tall men privilege? greetings from my 5,4 hahaha the only jokes you can do nowadays is the short men why would be thaaaaaaaaaat?
At least you are aware of it. I don’t hate at all, but if you’re going to act like it isn’t a part of the equation, I’m not a fan. But live it up! It’s gotta be awesome! 👏🏻
"It didn't matter that in May of that same year they were shitting on me"
You went to school with Vince McMahon.
Being tall isn't enough. I am 192 cm but ugly looking. Ugly trumphs tall I can tell you.
I've had a blepharoplasty - my eyelids drooped so bad it was messing with my vision. Most men and women on my father's side have gotten it done because of this. Not only can I see better but I have more confidence in my looks. I'm open about it, but it was done so well and naturally that no one noticed until I show them the before and after. Next, I work in trauma surgery and emergency medicine. Before that experience, I thought plastic surgery was only about cosmetics, but truly I've seen amazing things come from plastic surgery post-trauma to the face or other body parts. The point of plastic surgery is to bring functionality, and or a sense of normality after such an event. Great topic, Shelby!
Shelby! Did you know that plastic surgery and the value in physical appearance is absolutely enormous in South Korea? For example, like it’s so common for parents to gift double eye lid surgery to their children for graduation because it is seen as it will give them an advantage in job hunting/success
Which is kind of funny, since they all look so similar.
The kardashians definitely followed the south korean model, looks like it worked darn well for them
Because you can not get a job being ugly. I am Asian (not Korean) but in my country it's the same.Here people judge specifically WOMEN a lot. I've been treated really poorly, I was very below average but nice and well-mannered with people because otherwise they would treat me really bad.I am from very poor family and my parents didn't give me anything,so I had to work a lot to earn money for some facial tweaks.I also lost weight and cleared my skin.The life is completely different.I am still improving myself,but I am not longer considered ugly so yes it is very beneficial.I at least can earn better money looking normal. Weirdly enough it's the same in Scandinavia like Sweden,Norway and Denmark.They all judge by your surface only.
this is actually the main reason they get surgery, job market is crazy and surgeries only boomed during major economic depression so everyone was even more desperate to win a job. FYI they have to submit headshots with every resume…I feel like people don’t know that.
@@samaraisntYeah I thought was crazy you have to include headshots.
When I was a teenager I got teased for my nose, and it wasn’t that bad. So I decided when I was 22 I’d give myself a makeover. I did a blepharoplasty, rhinoplasty, and breast Aug. I had to have a rhinoplasty revision 6 months later due to it not looking good at all.
Now 12 years later just had to get my implants out and from BII autoimmune disorder starting from having them and my, eyelids that won’t stay closed so it impairs my sleeping and dries my eyes out so severely. I had actually thought about getting the lip filler that dissolves cause I have an aunt who got it, but your video alerted me there are consequences to EVERY procedure. So my twenty five cents are love the way God made you as much as you can and realize that a lot of it dissipates when you surround yourself with people who love you for who you are. Trying to keep up with social medias expectations and society is unrealistic and devastatingly unhealthy and has wreaked havoc on me. Is beauty worth stealing feeling good?
Fascinating, but very disturbing that people can’t be comfortable in their own skin. I don’t think that 20 year olds realize that there is a natural drop off in appearance in your mid 30’s. If they are bothered by extremely small flaws in their youth, they will have a huge psychological problem as they age beyond their 40’s.
Excellent video. 🙌🏾
Yeah because there is not natural drop off in appearance in your mid 30s.
@@gloriav5632I think there is. It’s not dramatic in the mid thirties. But let’s not fool ourselves. A lot of people think they look younger than they actually do.
A former customer from my sister's beauty salon had a decade long meltdown when she turned 50. She was still pretty before committing to Botox and plastic surgeries but she truly couldn't cope with aging. She placed too much value on being conventionally pretty and young looking. She was super mean to me the few times I interacted with her. She had a boutique and the one time I asked her about jeans she looked at me up and down with contempt and disgust and said she didn't carry my size at her store. It was pure rotten fatphobia.
@@halloweenallyearround4889 💯! The 20 and 30 year olds of today are going to freak out when the aging process really kicks in.
@@2KellyJoy As you said, you think there is. Most people would agree with you but not everyone. It's not fooling anyone to have an unpopular opinion. Also, I didn't mean people who look younger than their age at 35 because that's not most people.
There's a Netflix documentary called "White Hot: The Rise & Fall of Abercrombie & Fitch" that showed how the company became very successful in the late 90's to early 2000's. In a nutshell, they exploited the phenomenon that Shelby is talking about. They would stick their more attractive associates in the front of the store to deal with the customers, and their less attractive associates were stuck in the back of the store where they would organize inventory, returns etc. and were out of sight of the customers. It was a very dehumanizing strategy, but sadly it was very effective.
Models/good looking ppl are always used in advertising prior to social media, now they can just use a bunch of influencers to promote their products and make more profit bc influencers get paid less than a traditional model or celeb 😂
I worked at Hollister (same company) and yeah I was a “model” and had to greet people, work the fitting rooms etc. and anyone not conventionally attractive was in the back
@@naturalnaelahonestly restaurants and bars do the same thing they just don’t always say it out loud lol
I think Larry David brought this phenomenon up on the Curb episode with the restaurant where the good looking people had a section and then everyone else was put in the back.
I'm also thinking about Tobias' hair transplant rejection on Arrested Development. So horrifying!
In my city 2 gorgeous guys would stand outside at the doorway of abercrombie & fitch all day long, looking uncomfortable.
There seems to be a correlation here with loneliness. If beauty is your calling card, there will always be a newer more beautiful version. That's why relationships based on looks fall apart so fast
Thats not true statistically
Yes ofc
@user-ct3lg7mw9tlmao delusional
i love how gloomy it was this filming day!! it gives it such a cozy vibe
It was so cozy!
This was such a fascinating video! It's crazy to think that it's actually possible to calculate the return on investment in plastic surgery (in terms of getting a better job, higher income, higher status in the world). I guess my question is, will we ever go too far?
It’s already happening. I bet actors do it for movies if they want them bad enough.
@AndreiJikh Hey! Cool so see you in the comments! That is pretty bonkers, right?! And of course we will go too far. People already are like Shelby pointed out.
We've been going too far for a while, look at the kardashians
You're very naive if you think back then people didn't do plastic surgery to get more status.
It is crazy right!!
“Alienized” is a good descriptor, I’ve been calling it The “Jigsaw” look. 1-2 procedures done they look alright but after awhile, especially with filler, I’ve noticed Jigsaw take over their face. Great video!
Also, as people age, the "word" looks terrible. Natural aging looks much better.
My house mate during my Masters degree was a 6'3 Chad surfer dude who had a chiselled jaw and played guitar. During this time he hooked up with one of our other housemates and a bunch of other girls at uni, just in one year. It took me a while after graduating to realise he lived life in easy mode.
Lolz
Thanks for addressing this Shelby. As an attractive person yourself it will hit harder than if an unattractive person said it. I’ve felt the effects of this for years. I’m overweight but had a brief period where I lost 100lbs and boy did I get treated better. And it stopped when my weight went back on. Whenever I’ve tried to tell people pretty privilege is a thing I get gaslit. So thank you. Also skinny privilege is a thing too but that’s really a part of pretty privilege
Ooh yeah. Plus like 90% of men are much more attracted to a healthy weight hwp that is. Personally I liked a pretty chubby girl but I could even get it up 🤷
How do you just, gain 100lbs like it's nothing? I can't even gain 2kg. Is it the type of food?
I've tried eating more but I just don't have the time.
Am I slow if I take a bit less than an hour to finish my meals?
@@AllyFin I think she gained it by the type of food. Seed vegetable oils degrade in your body bc they are made rancid through the production and need heavy chemicals to strip that rancid oxidation off so they basically build your body with shit that will break down in 10+ years. That plus processed food and meats. Anyone would get fat...lit the shuff is banned in most of Europe. Eliminate vegetable oils and she will loose weight and the skin might actually get done elasticity back
I realized many years ago that racism is all based on standard of beauty. And pale skin fits the standard of beauty for most people from most culture backgrounds. That’s the main reason people with whiter skin colour always get treated better and gain more privilege. Taking Michael Jackson for example.
I never understood why men stressed so much about hair loss and get a hair transplant. I started losing my hair when I was 18. Shaving my head boosted my confidence way more than any hair transplant ever could. I don't regret it a single bit. It comes from the mindset of just owning it.
I agree it’s best to just own it ☺️But to be honest, some men have funny shaped heads & being bald doesn’t suit their looks. Also being bald makes you look older than you are! And some men may not want that. They want to maintain their youthful looks. Having hair changes the way your face looks to society & it also increased your chances of being matched on online dating. Men with hair are assumed to be healthier. Although we know that’s not always true, but that’s just the assumptions people make lol 😂 so I can understand why men would chose to go through with a hair transplant, but I also think it’s better to just love your bald head and have the confidence that comes from within ❤
@@prettyllady it’s all about owning the factors that you can’t control and focus on what you can control.
id rather wear a wig than look bald
Yea try being bald with a big nose
@@broidkanymore-zc4lt then wear a wig.
I think that the fact that cosmetic surgery trends are cycling so quickly now is scary. For a long time it was a relatively limited range of things people could do but it seems like for a while now the options and trends are coming and going so fast but our bodies can't possibly swing from one procedure to the next and be ok over a lifetime. At some point there has to be an acknowledgement that we can't all possibly look the same.
Exactly! Look at shows in the 1960s and earlier. The variety of natural faces is fascinating and more interesting than today.
I appreciate your intelligence. You speak eloquently and use intelligent vocabulary. You don’t say “like” every other word, or “I’m obsessed”. You don’t use up-speak. So refreshing for your age group. I’m 64. Keep up the great job!
First time I've seen a pretty person acknowledge pretty privilege.
mmm? Average
@@stephaniea1398 Everyone sees pretty different.
@@stephaniea1398go to a Walmart on a random Tuesday … that’s average. Most people on TH-cam are not “average” based on the “standard description of beauty”
@@pokene_pokemonagree. She is beautiful! Just by being thin, blonde, fair with big blue eyes you are 10 steps ahead of the game.
@@stephaniea1398where’s your profile pic?
PLEASE do a doc-style video on this!! that would so interesting!
I would like to see Shelby wear facial prosthetics, frumpy clothes and a brown wig to fugly herself up for a public outing and see how she's treated.
YES we love a hard hitting docu style video on a pop culture phenomenon
Love that you mentioned the Uglies series! It holds up pretty well and feels more relevant all the time!
There's a new sequel series, too ;) not about the same thing, but also relevant and great
I have a small amount of forehead botox and a half syringe of lip filler and I feel like that's all I'm interested in right now, although I am considering in the future having a bleph done. I think anyone should do whatever they want with their face, but I always encourage people to start very small. It's easier to add more than take away. I want to avoid the highly fake look of a ton of filler and botox and other procedures, but the botox and lip filler I have are genuinely some of the best investment I've made in myself because it makes a subtle difference that overall makes me really confident.
I think you highlighted it perfectly addressing diminished returns, alienization and body’s as a trend. These standards are not maintainable and are harmful on people’s perception of their value.
I’m really liking the shift on your main channel. Keep this up!
Love this. This is AMPLIFIED in South Korea. Some corporate jobs will offer women “maintenance stipends” for beauty procedures, makeup, cosmetics, etc.
so much of socio economic mobility depend on how you look and how people view you during first impressions. The standards are impossibly high and ever changing. For example, right now a “short nose” is trending rather than an elongated nose. So makeup, plastic surgeons, fillers, photo filters all follow the trend and flip flop when it changes.
I’d love for you to dig in more maybe in a follow up episode!
Wow a short nose is trending after years of everyone getting the “tall nose”?
Especially in LA, it's so normalized, I thought everyone knew common plastic surgery scar "tells", cosmetic bruises, or even as simple as assuming someone likes you even if they have RBF due to Botox until I spoke to people outside of LA and I had to explain things to them😂
hands down one of the best videos ive watched in awhile on youtube. Your content is so good. Yes please release the documentary it's a very intertesting topic
Good video, Shelby! I like how transparent you are about the work you get done, and the interviews with plastic surgeons are informative.
People don't understand the risk of a mediocre or bad result. Want a mole removed or a scar made less apparent? There's a 99 percent chance of a good result. But many plastic surgeries onlly fix one problem to create new problems. Take facelift for example, it solves the problem of facial wrinkles by removing skin. The wrinkles are gone (problem solved) but the patient now has an "always surprised" look (new problem).
Pretty sure most people who get that surgery are aware of that risk and take it into account
Great job, Shelby. Love this and your other documentary style videos. I bet it gives you much job satisfaction and pride in your work😊
Another perfect episode of this series! Really love this episode and I'm so glad you talked about this subject... and believe me, It's gonna make a different landing coming from you who is already an attractive person.
Very nicely done and well produced Shelby.
Looking forward to more of this series.
I like this type of videos a lot! It’s like a mini discussion/documentary since you r citing and interviewing people
15:28 Salt Lake City? That is so surprising to me! I love all the facts you’re sharing. Your page has become so amazing!
Same! I was shook
the first clip from is my video on pretty privilege! love to see it
Wow! I am loving these new video style! Informative, very well researched and timely. I think ur video deserves more attention, great job!
Shelby I think this is one of your best video's yet.. You have opened my eyes to this pretty privilege issue I kind of always knew it but really didn't want to believe it. I was always the chubby but had a pretty face but as I aged in the work place I could see management giving more attention to those who fit that image better. I find this all so sad and pitiful. They other issue you mentioned was the products that were being placed into the body and what internal damage it is doing these folks. I am always getting crap about how I won't get knee replacement because I'm allergic to all metals people just don't want to know what can happen to your insides. Again Shelby great message here Outstanding 5 star message.
Very interesting video. I’m glad you’re secure in yourself to talk about this. Great stuff 😊
I am LIVING for the commentary!! Love this video❤️
Shelby, again what an incredible talk. Thank you for doing so much research and keeping it so balanced. I look forward for more of what you do in the future. Personally, I see you do a Ted Talk in the future!
I am really enjoying these types of videos! You are very good at just talking about things! Thank you for these longer great videos!
Thank you for bringing this topic into the spotlight
Not in tech. We women have to dumb things down. Undone hair, no makeup and passive voice during meetings. When we dress up, look cute and stop making these insecure tech bums feel safe, it’s not the best day in the office.
i'm loving this new style of videos form you! great topic!
I really enjoyed this. I am not blessed with pretty privilege but I have noticed such a difference since I started to greet everyone with a big smile and friendly voice vs when I was super super super shy and reserved lol
This was an awesome video - thanks for the analysis and commentary. Changed my perspective multiple times throughout :)
This was so informative and so glad you’re talking about this topic! Keep it up
Omg so happy you mentioned the book The Uglies!!! After watching vids on this topic and then this video, it's all i can think about when there's a trend of people starting to get surgery to look the same... so weird and scary, and i remember reading that book as a kid and it really sticking with me!
Thanks for talking about this Shelby! Its quite scary to see these people online and thinking woah do people acutally look like that then.... you see their tagged photos/getty images and are like oh that does not look very good
Wow. I am usually a silent viewer but I have to say.. great video! ❤ it’s honestly great seeing a TH-camr that is literally a normal person!
Shelby's content is always so real and transparent. Love it
omg mentioning uglies sent me down a rabbit hole 😭 i remember reading that book when i was 7 and it confused yet intrigued me so much
What a great commentary video. I can’t remember the last time i sat through a long format youtube video without fast forwarding at some points. I watched this all the way through. I’m definitely going to check your other videos out since this was my first one.
I am average looking and a size 14/16 but thankfully i never felt the need to get surgery. Lose weight, yes, bc in asian culture being skinny = being pretty. But now i exercise for my health and less so to look hot or whatever. People never believe im a size L/XL bc i have learned to dress for my body type. But when i went to korea last fall i did feel a bit down bc literally none of the clothes fit me there. The largest size they had was a L or even more commonly “free size” except you would need to be a size like 4/6 to fit those garments. I was relieved to get back to the US and not feel this pressure to be stick thin. I could never live there. You even have to put a picture on your resume in korea so looks really matter.
I loved this topic Shelby! Pretty privilege is so real and it's hard not to compare yourself in this day and age of plastic surgery where it's so normalized. From personal experience, I haven't had any plastic surgery and I live in LA in a neighborhood where I feel like I'm one of the least attractive people there haha but people do treat you differently when you're attractive for sure, so I'm glad you touched on it. also your points about alex earle are so right, love this format and please do more episodes!
Commentary really suits you. I appreciate that you look at both sides and are really considered and interesting.
Love that you’re talking about this subject! I find the normalization of plastic surgery to be extremely sad, especially when we know that very young women are taking in this messaging. When I was a teenager, I was very insecure about the bump on the bridge of my nose. Thank goodness the idea of a nose job wasn’t hammered into my mind, because now that I’m almost thirty, it doesn’t bother me AT ALL. The idea of young me undergoing plastic surgery to “fix” something so benign is sickening.
This is a great new format, you have a lot to share and you do it really well! Loving it!
Excellent video! I love this series format!
Super interesting and informative! Love your channel. Keep up the great work Shelby! :)
Great job on putting on such a thought out video with fantastic research. I was also so deep into the Uglies trilogy books.
Thank you for discussing these topics. I couldn't agree more.
Happy Birthday Shelby!! 🎉
Such a great video. We kind of talked about this at the Cybertruck event. It’s definitely hard being in an industry where you have to constantly look at yourself. But Shelby you’re definitely gorgeous and I’m sure you have some pretty privilege going for you!
I have a farm and have employed 100s of backpackers over the years. I observed what you are discussing (pretty privilege) amongst them, the more attractive men and women were more forward, often more friendly. Very thoughtful video and I hope you have a beneficial influence on young women who watch it. Thanks.
Thank you for starting the discussion re these important topics, Shelby. ❤️ And I agree re men, they should have to feel the pressure too. Especially those bros who tear down girls and women on social media on a regular basis.
I can feel that you care about your audience ❤ Thank you
When I saw on your blogs that you were making a video on pretty privileged I was not excited because there are already so many but I actually really enjoyed it and I learnt some new things
Shelby, very well done video. Well researched and presented!
This was so well done and the first time in a long time that i watched your video all they way through
I'm glad I stumbled upon this video, this was so fascinating and brought a lot into perspective about the world.
I love these type of videos from you Shelby. I think this is your calling.
Super well put together ☺️ very enjoyable watch
Great chat Shelby, I agree with all your points. I'm 55 and had botox on my crows feet and eyebrows twice and I absolutely loved it. I feel like my eyes have always been my best feature and it really made me feel like I looked more youthful and gave me confidence even though no one I knew could tell I had it done - not even my partner. I do want to have it again but it's so expensive and at this point in my life I think I'd rather spend money on travel, but who knows, maybe I'll do it again.
Use high quality castor oil (cold press at the minimum, better organic quality). It has to be kept in a dark bottle (a brown) and prefereably most of it in the fridge. The oil is very thick so you need little. It has antiinflammatory properties, is also used on things like warts, boils, skin tags. And I read that it can lighten discolorations of skin (redness, but also age spots). Watched a video before of a woman 74 years (in Vancouver) that used it on those spots and also on a scar on her knee. And she thinks it has softened her crow feets (she has very good skin) and she says she sees a difference after 30 days use.
LIkely the oil keeps moisture in. People also report that the face is a bit plumped up (in a good way).
Wow, great video, coupd you do more of these a discuss specific procedures with possible side effects. For example I never knew lip fillers can move to your face 😮
This type of phenomenon was already happening a few decades ago in South Korea. Thanks for sharing 👍
I think we still have it easy in the US compared to SK
Technically most Asian countries. But the k-pop industry somehow commercialized it more than others
This is impressive, Shelby. I've never had any interest in any of this, never think about it; but this was fascinating. Great job, thank you! Well documented and the narrative was well-designed. Very interesting.
A side note: a pharmaceutical company called Allergan? So weird-just sounds like "allergen"! Can't believe they didn't even catch that 😀
Please turn these video’s into a podcast. This type of content is perfect for commuting to work
Loving this type of content for you, Shelby! This was a really enjoyable watch/listen. It’s nice to see your approach on this type of content!
Loved the Uglies series! Definitely feels like we’re moving more and more towards that kind of world 😬
This was really interesting! Thank you for sharing xx
Happy birthday, Shelby and Monica!😃❤🎉🎊🎁🎈🍰🎂
I auf what they are Aquarius!?
Great job on this video! I hate what people are doing to their faces and bodies now. Bravo for calling attention to it.
I mentioned the Uglies on another youtube video on the same topic and a lot of ppl commented below about it but I haven't seen a youtuber actually bring it up in the discussion but it really does feel like that part of the series is becoming more and more real.
Such awesome research and sharing from a loving perspective! very appreciated video :) thank you
Props for bringing this up Shelby, it’s so rare to hear a pretty person talk about this
Great video Shelby very informative
Took me ages to watch this video. I thought it would be boring but was super interesting. Hope regular vlogs come back too though! 😘🥰😍
I love these videos. this is a new era.
Very good video Shelby. Unfortunately, this happens but lets not forget that true beauty is within. There are qualities that a not so "pretty" person develops that are so valuable in our communities. Valuing oneself and not believing society standards of beauty is a start in the right direction.
I had an episode of feeling ugly and thinking of how I would've been so much better now socially had I been prettier, thought that beauty is a natural selection method and that it's ingrained in us, but then I remembered once again how beauty is relative no matter how objective we try to make it, in the end beauty is nature itself manifesting. Certainly when we get old it doesn't matter anymore...
Wow this was amazing!! So nice to see the positives that come from plastic surgery and doctors that actually want to help instead of just trying to make money.
As usual, Shelby, another great video!
Loving these more recent videos!
This was such a fab video Shelby amazing job!
Shelby I love these new commentary videos, I look forward to them every week now :)))
Love these vids Shelby!!! Do more
Thanks Jeanine!!
@@ShelbyChurch Schelby you are very pretty in my eyes! The fact that you haven't given in to trendy faces, makes you even more beautiful to me because your own face has its personality and looks different (in a good way.) I am not against people getting PS but I really wish people kept their personalities when getting their faces done, and kept their unique charms like you keep yours!
Great vide! Thank you so much - very insightful.
Love your docu-style videos!!!
Love your video & insights, thank you❤😊!!
Really liking this new commentary style videos you been putting out. Pretty privilege has always been a thing, but the lengths people are going through to get there is just crazy. I agree with getting 1 or 2 procedures done to improve that thing that has been holding someone back. But this new trend of fixing everything till you look like unnatural, well is just a trend... that sadly, when it's over... people will not be able to reverse.
