Hair-shaming is for losers. And Chiara Ferragni approves<\/strong><\/p>\n

How many times, before going out, we looked ourselves in the mirror and thought: \u201cOMG, my hair is so awful!\u201d. Probably, every single day. Well, relax: you\u2019re not alone! According to research conducted by Pantene in partnership with Yale University, only 1 in 10 women is satisfied with her locks.<\/p>\n

We take care of our hair every day, but it never meets our expectations. Are we sure is only about our expectations? Or is it more about the others\u2019 ones?\u00a0 Hair, since forever, has always been a target of labels and superstition. Blondes? So stupid. Curls? Messy like a bush. Redheads? Carrot top. Brunettes? They would love to be blonde. All these stereotypes don\u2019t help us to accept ourselves for who we really are. The result? Every girl with curls would prefer to have straight hair, all the brunettes dye their hair blonde: we always want to be something else, because we don’t want to be labeled.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s so easy to use others\u2019 physical insecurities to let them down. Especially on social networks, where haters are always around the corner. An Instagram celebrity like Chiara Ferragni, who shares her everyday life with more than 15 million followers all around the globe, is a target of labels, too! Her iconic blonde strands, that inspired her blog name, The Blonde Salad, is always under the radar of her fans, thanks to all the hairstyles and look makeover she experienced in these years.<\/p>\n

No one would ever think that the most powerful fashion influencer in the world could receive bad comments about her hair. Actually, she received a lot of them every day. When she dyed her hair pink, someone said it that a mother should never do these things. Others, called her \u201cPippi Longstocking\u201d when she made braids. The one she always finds in her comments? \u201cToo blonde to be smart!\u201d<\/p>\n

For Chiara Ferragni and for all of us, it\u2019s time to say stop to all these labels and to launch a new message: #StopHairShaming! Our muse is the ambassador of the new Pantene advertising campaign, that wants to pus hall the women to say no to this form of bullying and to free their hair\u2019s strength. Where is it hidden? In the beautiful diversity of our locks, that makes us unique and wonderful! If we feel confident with our hair, we can face our busy days with more positive energy, Just like Chiara Ferragni does every single day.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re all fighting to help women to feel more confident, that\u2019s why I find these comments about \u2018stupid blondes\u2019 so superficial and old-fashioned! Stupid blonde, Carrot top, Curly bush\u2026 Stop with all these labels! I\u2019ve never felt \u2018perfect\u2019 in my life, but I\u2019ve always been lucky to feel confident in my skin. Don\u2019t let labels define you. Celebrate your uniqueness. It will be your strong point\u201d, said Chiara Ferragni.<\/p>\n
