Frrrr😭

Ikr , they post pictures from when they were 8 and how they look 10 years later , I mean of course ppl will change in 10 years, you discovered yourself.

Ikrrr I find it SO Stupid and the fact that so many young girls watch those videos and think that they need to like that

But the thing most of these picture prove is that how can an average looking person suddenly look so hot dramatically in their 20s? It is indeed glow up . Cause not everyone is that lucky

@@mimid.227 But how you change is a different story. Some people still looks the same/ average when they grow up but other change their body/ facial aesthetic dramatically as they grow into their age. Now that’s pretty interesting cause not every kid is a beautiful child. If you never experienced the feeling of being lonely/ getting no attention/ feeling not pretty enough at a teenager years to suddenly being on the other side of the spectrum … then you will never appreciate these glow up video. It brings hope that things will change.

Yeah it is real. It sucks but it is real.

Even kids treat you better when you’re pretty 😂 I was chubby with acne skin growing up while my cousin was tall, slim and always put together. I remember all the little girls in our family flocked to her although she wasn’t into entertaining/playing with them. She was just nicer to look at.

Thats just how it is, speaking from experience, its sucks but its true

Literally so true lmao. two to three years ago when I was around 15, I overheard some boys of my class rate me a 5/10 and that really hurt like a bitch at that time. So during the quarantine, I decided to take care of myself and improve my personality and become more confident myself. Fast forward to now that I am eighteen the same guys treat me differently. So yeah I agree pretty privilege is real!!

@@pratishtha5740 It is great that you worked on yourself but also work on your self-esteem. It is totally normal to be a 5. In fact most people are a 5. That's why the 5 on a scale from 1-10 is there for. The majority of people are average. Not everyone has to look like an Instagram model. Not even the girls on Instagram look like this in real life. Take it from a guy who has 8 more years of self-esteem issues 😂

I'm trying to get this for myself. I think it counts as a glow up partly because they're so expensive.

Not if they extract you teeths, then its a down up XD

I’d say braces + Jaw surgery would be a true glow up. That’s a LOT of aesthetic labor Everyone gets braces now unless they’re broke so it’s nothing special. You can get transparent ones too to hide them. Perfect teeth are an expectation, not a rarity

Not true. Most people from forums I saw that glow up where or already good looking and lost weight and fixed acne, or glowed up using (multiple) plastic surgery procedures. Some glowed up using steroids that caused bone to change sometimes.

A glow up isn't just about appearance though. You can have a mental glow up as well. I believe "glowing up" is another term for improvement and progression.

@@joogaloo929 I'm already in shape

Absolutely! I feel like form 14-18 ,kids grow up and a hell lot of changes take place , and i feel from 18 to 23 ,they don't change a lot but the style does change so that makes a whole lot of difference

I agree, the guys also just 'grewup' , most significant changes come post adolescense.

100% - this is THE post.

10p% agree.

(wall of text srry) EXACTLY, I totally think makeup can count as a glow up. His argument was soo shaky and honestly just sounded like he wanted to call using makeup a superficial change but according to his argument, which was that a glow up takes effort and not just falling into the course of life/a glow up is when you physically intervene and look significantly different, makeup would count! like he literally says that glow ups have to be things that "wouldn't happen anyway" RIGHT AFTER reading and agreeing with a comment stating that makeup can make women look completely different, 7:38. Like dude.. would makeup have happened anyway? He said it had to be drastic changes. I honestly don't think its very fair to compare women's efforts in changing their appearances to men's because when dudes are young and fat they typically are gonna be fat later on and will have to go to the gym in order to change that but when young women are fat its wayyy more likely for a women to grow into her body (or slim out) and not only that, our bodies are more acceptable in way more shapes then men's so women normally don't feel the need to go to the gym like how a guy does. With that being said, women don't typically go from 300 pounds then to the gym so its unfair to base their glow ups on that only (and fucking surgery like?). That's like if we were to base men's glow ups on makeup, men typically don't feel the need to wear makeup so its unfair to completely dismiss their other efforts and say "all they did was grow up and go to the gym 🙄". To me, the definition of a glow up is when you put in effort to change the course or fate of your appearance and you look better. This is pretty much his argument but he switched it up when it came to women. Women put in so much effort, makeup isnt easy, they do realize you have to learn makeup right? If a girl was doing makeup, after her face matured, and it looked bad and then 10 years later you see her again and it looks better - like a completely different person - then that's a glow up.

I agree. It doesn't make sense to completely dismiss the effects of makeup in terms of a glow-up when it can make a massive difference to someone's face, which he himself states. Without any effort, a teenager is not going to suddenly start using makeup. In addition, learning how to apply makeup well takes considerable time and effort. Of course, some individuals do start using makeup and it improves their look but they don't look drastically different, which is the case with some of the women here. But hairstyle, makeup, clothing - all of these things combined can make a person near unrecognizable and it doesn't make sense to dismiss these. Personally, for the photos at the end that were considered "glow-ups", I'm not so sure. The lady put a photo of her as a cute chubby child for the "before", so she definitely grew up but it's harder to judge whether she "glowed-up" without a teenage photo. As for the guy, he definitely looks leaner and more defined afterwards, but he was already fairly attractive in the first photo as a younger adult/very late teen. The only difference was the extra weight, which does apply for a glow-up, but we can see he is already good-looking even with the weight.

The thing about makeup is that it isn’t permanent, you just wash it off by the end of the day so it isn’t really “you”

Putting on makeup is not the same as losing a ton of weight after rigorous change of diet and exercise. We need to remember the definition put for glow up in the video to talk about this, like he said, it's not just looking significantly better, but from physical change like surgery and orthodontics. If you like another way to define it, that's fine but it wouldn't be the same. Plus, makeup will eventually be washed off after so it's literally not permanent change

make up isn't a glow up.

I know, i giggle everytime, it's so comforting to know, I'm not the only one annoyed about this overly hyped positivity.

@@glidinggolovin what bro💀

Hes brutal honesty is funny af to me

Agreed, a glow up is literally just a massive attractiveness shift. And everything we do to our appearance counts because it forms part of how attractively others see us. We never stop growing up, so glow up and grow up are interlinked. Must of the girls in the video were already pretty just young, and when they came out they were still pretty but older with a style change, that's why there wasn't much of a glow up but can there be levels to a glow up? A drastic weight change is the biggest glow up you can have, it can impact face shape and face fullness, which can make you look older, younger or just chiselled. Make up can also change someone's look drastically but so can facial hair and a hair cut, these are all things we manipulate through effort, diet, hair cuts and fashion (all are part of glowing up) But when you already perceived someone as attractive, them getting more attractive won't really seem like a glow up but is it? While if someone was really ugly at age 14 and then became super attractive by age 20, is it a glow up or just growing up? Both because some people grow and grow but never get more attractive in the eyes of others.

The idea is that in many of these examples they would have achieved similar results regardless, especially Ellie who looks the most same to her previous self. There is nothing wrong with simply 'growing-up' or not 'glowing-up.' Most people live and die within the same tax bracket as their parents and similarly the same 'beauty-bracket,' but that doesn't mean that people cannot move up. We do not expect brownie points for brushing our teeth and wearing moisturizer, but these are aspects some may count as contributing to a "glowup." With or without the explicit goal of looking better, we would all still brush our teeth and apply some form of skincare (as a loose example). A glowup involves actively working to improve one's looks. This could be as 'simple' as getting out of bed, researching better fashion styles of r/malefashionadvice and buying new clothes or as 'complex' as rhinoplastic surgery to correct a crooked nose. Generally glowups are over a larger period of time with more drastic changes and this is why most people consider a true "glowup" to happen from 20 to 40 as this is when most people fall off their self-care routines and the truly dedicated show themselves. It has nothing to do with hard or soft changes.

Hey, I just turned 30 and I think I have "glowed up!" compared to when I was in my early 20s because I spend more money lol. I used to look messy back then because I was broke and it showed. Now I have money and it shows. I can afford an expensive gym. I've also learned how to style myself and what looks good on me over the years.

how old are you now and can u prove you're attractive now.

@@glidinggolovin none your business

@@TertiaryQuota no one asked unattractive female

facial structure doesn't change.. but skin quality and facial fat can def change your appearance for the better or worse.

Bone mass can change alot in males when they have high testosterone in their puberty

That isn't true. You can go from 35% body fat to 25% (for guys) and it will drastically change your looks and how people perceive you. Speaking from my experience, at 35% I was being mocked and a girl literally spit on my face for proposing her, then at 25% and more muscular body, two 'better-than-average' looking girls came to me asking for a threesome. It's a big deal honestly because I'm indian & 90% of people here don't even have sex here until they're married & I'm not some 6 ft Henry Cavill either. I'm just 5'8" and dark skinned with an asymetrical face but I still changed my attractiveness from a 3/10 to 8/10 with just body fat percentage. So, face can change.

yeah let's see if he's biased or not

All the mens were 10s

@@xiioh6788 they changed, women hit the puberty earlier

@@xiioh6788 why would he be biased?

​@@xiioh6788 He won't be biased since he is correct; men's "glow up" felt more significant because of how late their puberty began. Before puberty sets in, you have a lot more time to observe them in their "child" form, which heightens the impression higher.

I'm a women and was watching their video too. I was on Aba's side until the video progressee and Preach continued to make good points. "I conceeeeede!"🤣🤣🤣

@@Naistov same

She contoured her nose

She learned how to use sorcery

So she did something to change in a way she wouldn't have otherwise

I suspected but her original nose was pretty much the same too, could just be lighting and makeup.

Not really about cosmetic intervention but ANY intervention. A grow up is when you just let life take its course, even if you got “uglier” you still did grew up lol, a glow up takes effort to change the course.

Grownups because sexually dimorphic bones develop after puberty and the faces get objectively better looking because of that

They built muscle, that’s a lot of aesthetic labor. They also changed their style, hair, brows and beard. The girls just put makeup on

I think because the black girl doesn’t prove his point he was making like you said, who actually had a glow up.

Your case seems like a glow up to me. You mention that you are perceived differently, I assume better, now than when you were a teen. This relates to the the increase in social standing trait of glow ups as mentioned in the video

Glow up does not necessarily mean plastic surgery that's weird

Turkey 1!1!!1

If that’s u in ur profile pic you like 30

I think it depends on what surgery you will do. Will it affect a lot in your appearance? If so, then maybe you get bitter, but if its not that drastic, I don't think so. I had a surgery to fix my ear (so it changed a lot in my facial aesthetics) and yeah, people started to treat me better but even with that, I still felt ugly, aand ended up being excluded again due to my lack of confidence, beauty is important, but only after those experiences you will able to see those who only cared about your appearance, and those who treated you better because who you are. In short: you will get bitter, but its more like a bittersweet truth, that you can get with or without the surgery. People care a LOT about beauty, but you will find those who value you more from who you are than your looks. So maybe its worth it. You choose

I think you’d be foolish to be bitter and resentful over something that’s always been true since time immemorial. You’re better off being angry at the toxically positive westernv society we currently live in where they pretend everyone is beautiful and double down on it by pushing body positivity and stuff. But then hypocritically worship beautiful people unknowingly or knowingly

@@flavinsilva8913 I appreciate you sharing.

do you have any idea of what you did that allowed you to grow after 19? Or do you think it was just genetics?

@@pneumocystosis7115 Likely just genetics. Certainly wasn't my diet and excercise protocols of Taco Bell and sitting in a computer chair at that time, lol. I think I had a long drawn out puberty phase. I was fairly baby faced in my early 20's. I didn't even start shaving until around then. I started to look older than my late teen self when I was around 30. A lot of development was slow and late onset, and it likely resulted in my height development hanging on in pace with everything else... but I'm speaking out my ass at this point.

Nose shape changing is one of the most common features of puberty. And yes, it usually goes in that direction. The reason why the other person accused you of eurocentrism is that frankly, sharper noses with higher and more defined ridges tend to be more valued due to the history of eurocentrism and racialism that defined the development of the modern world (at the cost of the many POC groups who were less likely to have those nose shapes).
