HAILAN Abed, 19, is an actress who lives in Bolton with her mum Jee, 41.

Like Bella Hadid, she came to regret having a nose job when she was a teenager.

[/b]“Propped up in my hospital bed, I took a selfie on my phone. My face was swathed in bandages, my skin was painfully bruised and swollen and I had one overpowering thought: ‘What on earth have I done?’[/b]

I expected to wake up from my nose job in September 2019 feeling like a new and more attractive version of myself. Instead, I was filled with regret.

I was four when I moved with my mum Jee and dad Serhad, 44, to Bradford from Duhok, Kurdistan, Iraq, in 2006.

At school, I was surrounded by British children. I longed to have blonde hair, blue eyes and a button nose like them, as opposed to my sallow skin and hooked nose.

When I begged for blonde highlights, my mum, who worked as a hairstylist and beautician, told me I was beautiful as I was, but I didn’t believe her.

When I was 13, a boy at school called me ‘Squidward’ after the SpongeBob SquarePants character with a big, drooping nose. I felt humiliated and shied away from having photos taken. My self-esteem plummeted and I avoided looking in the mirror.

In late 2018, while on FaceTime with family in Duhok, talk turned to a relative who’d had a nose job. Cosmetic surgery is very popular in Kurdistan, and it’s so cheap compared to the UK. It planted a seed in my mind.

The following August, aged 16, I flew to Kurdistan on my own for a three-month holiday at my grandparents’ house.

A few weeks before, my aunt Lole, 23, had undergone rhinoplasty, and she was so happy with the results that I became determined to follow in her footsteps.



_{Hailan says: 'I’m so proud of being Kurdish and my new nose has robbed me of that physical connection with where I was born'}


I was due to start college soon and was desperate to have a new nose.

I began by convincing my grandparents Amana, 68, and Abdul, 73, I needed a nose job. I cried every day about how unhappy I was.

After two weeks, they gave in and said if Mum agreed, they’d pay for it. My parents had split up by this point and my dad wasn’t involved in the decision.

At first, my mum wouldn’t entertain the idea, but after a week of pleading calls, she agreed, and I was overjoyed.

However, excitement turned to worry as I sat in the surgeon’s office that September.

Rather than an in-depth consultation, he simply looked at photos of my nose, marked areas I wanted to change, asked for £800 and booked me in for the following week.

Doubts began to creep into my mind, but I hid them, even from my family as I was wheeled into surgery.

Three hours later, I woke up and was horrified by how bruised and swollen my face was, with my nose concealed beneath a cast.

The next week, when the cast was taken off I cried. This swollen, ugly nose wasn’t what I’d imagined – while the side profile was different, the droop I’d asked to be removed was still there.

Quite unfortunate... People should learn to love themselves the way they are.

Fine AF. No regrets, learn and grow. I'm tryna adopt that policy.

F Genders and their wahala










Guys wey no get girlfriend get peace of mind

Eyah sorry ooo...

I saw nose job and I thought it was Prick inside the nose

You just need to accept who you are... most people tends to be at war with themselves... if u are beautiful you are beautiful, even if u not beautiflul (as u tell yourself) we will all grow old and shrink someday... #SelfLove

I thought we only have Mouth Action

We learn everyday shaa

The funny thing about fashion and style is the confidence behind it, I remember when tupac reigned with the bandana stuff on his head, guys all over the world followed, same with DMX with skin cut, a lot of guys followed too, there was a time guys admired girls with bow legged shapes at a time it was the k-legged shapes because of certain top female personalities who promoted such figures.

There was this senior guy back then in secondary school who had a longer leg than the other so he limped, but the guy had swag, wore his school uniform very neatly ironed, always looking cool and had confidence around girls, before we knew a lot of guys started copying him, he turned his walking step into bouncing step other guys were admiring, that's why celebrities should stop promoting unnecessary surgeries.

People should learn to be confident about themselves

Wokeness has brought a nauseating lack of confidence to this generation. Words have become a sign of psychological oppression. In those days if dem word you, you go retreat and improve your word armory and strike back. We have weaklings every where these days. Even on Nairaland here you yab person they run to the mods. Facebook will ban you for "breaching community standards."

Those days of.....

"You mess 7up say the difference is clear.

You mess akpu fly fence."

Those days..... sigh

Na person wey dey spend ďollar and euro dey reason that one
Shey na person wey dey spend hard Naira go wake up say she wan do nose job because of one silly excuse.


Anyways if there's anybody that wants to do nose,ear,teeth or head job I will give ýou 70% discount on your first job.

she dey give nose ni

Carry your cross

Don't understand why someone will subject herself to the pains of a surgeon's knife just to alter the natural shape of her nose.
Even if your nose be like Oshio Baba's own.

Okay

So why is she crying if the nose is still the way it is?

There are a lot of things we human do at young age that we later regret. I Once met Daddy Fresh in an event, when he said that greatest regret of his life as a young Artest is to have his body tattooed.
