“People that are happy or confident in themselves don’t spend their time making fun of others.” This! This! This! I think I was mostly made fun of for my glasses. I legit have awful vision, so my lenses were really thick back then too! Now I have contacts and typically prefer to wear those.
Straight facts! People hated my accent (Caribbean), my big feet, big hands, the way I dressed, people called me “gay” all the time and now it’s the complete opposite. My kids go to a predominantly Caucasian school and my oldest is dealing with this now at 10 years old. She has dreads like me but they pick on her for her hair, the way she dress, etc but I talk to my kids daily and let them know just how beautiful they are. I booked her a photo shoot, dressed her up in a ball gown, added some color to her hair, she was feeling herself. Her confidence has gone up tremendously. I wanted her to see what I see. Kids can be cruel and most times it stems from the home. We need more representation so that these young beautiful black girls don’t feel inferior or that they should change their appearance to fit in. Let’s stop the madness!
PREACH! Representation matters, the features that are desired today were the same features I was bullied for. For example, having big lips or my hair. hm its triggering to think about. I grew up in England and so, my school was predominantly white. The racism here was very much subtle remarks to degrade Black people. It made me who I am, but I know for sure if I saw Black girls represented in media growing up would have helped me navigate myself.
This was super relatable. I was made of for my skin (acne) and hair. I still have insecurities in those areas but I am working on building that self love.
Amber, you are literally amazing🤩. Such a beautiful person both inside and out 🥰. I was never bullied, but I did have insecurities. When I got older I realized that people pay good money for the things God gave me naturally 🤣. This video is a good reminder that things change and get better. Our young ppl have to remember that it hurts now, but it won't forever. I also love how instead of returning negative energy and tearing them down, you tried to make them think about what they were doing. I didn't take the high road the 2 times I remember someone picking on me 👊🏾💁🏾♀️🤣. Loved this video 💞💞
Another great video. Growing up I was tormented for my dark chocolate skin and now it’s what I’m admired for. Also, representation is a big reason why I started following you. I never someone like me discuss the topics you did and I loved your interviews of your friends. Especially the top surgery one. It made me mindful of the bias I had and how uninformed I was about subject. Honestly if it was anyone other than you, I would have skipped past the video. Thank you so much for all you do I wouldn’t be the person I am without you.
I got teased for having freckles because it's not that common with black people. But now people compliment me on them more than enough. I was teased for being short and having long legs. I'm 5'3" and both of my parents are 5'11" which is why I have them. But when I got older and I started wearing heels and wedges with shorts......OMG!!! I started gettin compliments
Im 17 before the pandemic I was always bullied for my 4c hair even though my school is 90% black I'm a lot more confident in my hair and myself even though I still get ppl telling me to just perm my hair because it's ugly and nappy
Got made fun of for my big eyes too! Told I looked like an owl, hooted at, told I look strange, dopey... this one group of girls used to talk about my hair all the time which was long, straight and blonde, but they'd point it out like it was weird. You look beautiful in all your younger pictures Amber. Even if you didn't, it wouldn't matter because you'd still be you.
My butt - I'm a bit older and before Beyonce and JLo, big butts werent as cool. I'm white passing and no one knew I was different until I turned around. Even adults would say things when I was as young as 12 and even today I feel self conscious about the comments people make. Thank you for your video, it's nice to be reminded to embrace our uniqueness
These freckles, these curls & my curvy body that decided to start blooming in 2nd grade 🙄 being 6th grade with a high schoolers body. 🤦🏽♀️ everything but the last part I grew to love. IG had those freckles filters a while back & everyone kept bringing up how lucky I am to have them naturally. Obviously I laughed n brought this subject up. My dad always, ALWAYS told me people hate themselves so they don’t want you to love yourself either… never told me a lie yet & im in my 30’s. Thank God for my fabulous genes & for making me a beautiful kid of black, Hispanic & white ❤
Amber your beautiful soul exudes outward to your external beauty. So many young ppl need to hear your story, because it’s their story too. We need more brave young souls bringing the love like you do to enlighten this world. Higher vibrations baby! ❤️✨💫
💕 I used to feel like I had horrible skin. The pimples were on another level during middle school. NOW I regularly get compliments about my skin. And people often ask for advice that I don’t have since we all have different types of skin but I’m glad I realized at some point that “ it gets better “ and it really doesn’t matter what they think! Great video amber!
Amber, you speak mad truth in every video. Always relatable and relevant. What fuels your energy? Where do you find your identity? Thanks for the new upload
If someone is so keen to make you feel shame for who and what you are then you need to realise THEY ARE SHOWING YOU THEIR TRUE COLOURS... THEY ARE WARNING YOU THEY ARE NOT YOUR TRIBE!!!! THEY ARE LOW VIBRATIONAL HUMAN BEINGS AND YOU ARE SUCH LOVE AND LIGHT THAT THEY CANT HANDLE IT SO THEY FEEL LIKE THEY NEED TO BRING YOU DOWN AND KEEP YOU THERE!!! YOU ARE WORTHY MY FRIEND ❤️
mine used to be lips/mouth cos they were really so small. when i ate anything then, people made fun of me and ask questions like, 'which mouth did you use to eat the food?' stuffs like that . but now, people get to compliment me so much about it 'looks so small and cute', even MUAs.
People use to talk about my forehead. Come to find out that the same guys that talked about me in school wanted to date me or get with me. Didn’t have time for them then and still don’t now. I never let it run my life or the type of person I was because I figured if they talked about Jesus and he was that great I could handle that too being I’m a child of God. If it doesn’t kill you it makes you stronger and words never bothered me. I love myself too much!❤️🥰 Always love God and yourself and you will never go wrong.
I can really really relate because when I was younger I was bullied for my eye color,teeth looks but mostly eye color because then I was totally different from my families and every other person. Funny part of it is that I was tagged “possessed “ (demonic) and my mum took me to church for prayers and deliverance 😂. But look at the world now!, eye contact is the order of the day and I get complimented a lot for my eye color, so I rock my cat eyes with pride!!🥰❤️✌️
I got picked on by my family members about my lips, and how skinny I was, and also people would and still do talk about how deep my voice is. As I became an adult I got many compliments on my lips and thanks to my first daughter my body🤭 came out so I get compliments on the booty and a lot of people looovveee the voice. 😊😊😊🤎🤎🤎 From Philly
I can palm a mens bball. I have large hands and feet for my slender 5' 8 1/4" frame. Have been called a man/sir. Have always noticed my androgynous features but was terribly unhappy about it(not "woman enough"). 7th grade in the library, I'll always remeber a male friend telling me that yeah my hands are large, but they're pretty. I didn't cherish my hands until I started doing energy work/massage. My healing hands are one my greatest gifts, and clients had no hesitation making that known lol. I'm still working on accepting and loving myself, and this video and Ambers channel has been so helpful to me😌 (have been binge watching for a few wks now).
I never understand the big eyes thing bcuz I got made fun of for mine an I seen some other comments ppl did too, my mom would even call me bug eyes when I was younger! But now I’m grown I Always get compliments on my 👀 My kids go to school with very few other white kids an my son came home saying tht kids was calling him honkey an makin fun of him for being white an it blew my mind it’s 2022 an it’s ahhh damn shame anybody ever has to be bullied or felt hurt or disliked for the color of their skin. I have always taught my kids to luv other humans, if thy respect yu then yu respect them period!!
I was made fun of a lot of my muscular legs, broad shoulders, and the fact that I didn't care about wearing makeup to impress boys (I had to stay in the closet for safety reasons). Now I get compliments all the time about how my legs look, how strong I am both physically, emotionally, and how I do my makeup. I have been out and proud for a while now and have an amazing, beautiful wife ❤ 💕.
My 4c hair has always been my insecurity. Until HS I hated every hairstyle, such as the bob. Although I don't remember being bullied for it, I watched other black girls get bullied. Unless they had straight long hair or loose curls, they'd get called baldheaded or nappy. Then I got long braids and everyone LOVED it. But the second I took them out it was "bad hair day?" or asking when I'm getting my hair done. Now I love my locs but I'll still worry about length until they're down my back.
I grew up in the 80’s and was in high school. All of my caucasian boyfriends made me feel “fat” because I had a big booty. They always told me that I needed to go on a diet. I would starve myself and got too thin. It wasn’t until 1988, when I met my boyfriend (now husband) who is a light skinned black man (not that color matters) but he loved me the way I was an encouraged me to eat more. He was the person to change my self esteem. Today we are going on 25 years of marriage and Im extremely blessed and grateful. BTW, you are so beautiful and I love “CASE” and Ambers closet!!!! LGBTQ 🏳️🌈 ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Amber I can relate too u about getting bullied in school when I was younger. I got talked about I didn’t have a figure but when I got older I got a nice figure. Amber u r amazing n I love your videos every time I watch your video I get inform n learn about different issues that I can relate too thank u for being the gorgeous woman that u r love ya❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I agree to 99% of this except when I’ve finally let a person have it one good time they stopped! Sometimes folks will keep fucking with you until you check them just 1 good sufficient time…
This was too relatable 😭 but my nose. I used to get clown on for how “small” it is but now people that see me say it looks perfect and I don’t know what to say 😅
Yup, so on point. I went through a little chubby stage, before that turned into beautiful curves.. And I couldn't get away from the compliments! Truthfully, bullys still exist as adults.. I just went through a horrible job situation where an insecure little weedy gay man loved to pick on all the women.. It was tough! But it was absolutely clear that he loved to pick on the good things about us, so as much as it sucked, at least it was obvious it was about his insecurities and inabilities making him feel treatened for being shown up as not all that. I had to learn alot about narcism fast. I tried to lift him up for ages, but nope, he was determined to tear us down. Sad guy! We all deserve better 💕 Hang in there, whether it's today, or in the past, I totally agree, our uniqueness is beautiful!! And secure people don't find that scary, they find it hot 🔥
I use to get made fun of because I have ADHD and also because I was in special education but as I look back on it I feel more comfortable and confident thanks to your video Amber but every so often those bad memories come back to me how do I avoid that?
Facts. I was always teased for having a long neck (called a giraffe,) and pronounced collar bones. Baby, it’s all love now! I’m showing this to my daughter. ☺️
Amber is thee most beautiful human in social media land. super Intelligent , confident and most importantly emotionally Intelligent and that making for a wise soul. and then there's her beauty, people Amber is gorgeoussss
It's crazy how people are so busy looking outward judging how others look over just looking at who they are and fixing whatever issue they have. I have had to deal with the short jokes but it never hurt me 5'4.
My body hair (I'm half Mexican and half white). Got a lot of crap about my appearance, to the point of having a nick name they gave me based on my being hairy and Latina. It sucked. But luckily I don't have to interact with them anymore. It still haunts me though. And even though in other ways I'm so into being a proud Latina, I still have that voice in my head that says I'm ugly and hates my face.
I got made fun of for being hairy, for being Mexican, for having heavier eyebrows and now I happily live in Mexico, love my body hair, and get complimented on mg eyebrows a lot
ITS FUNNY HOW WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL PEOPLE MADE FUN OF MY HAIR TOO EXCEPT THEY USE TO CALL ME BALD HEADED (WHEN MY BANGS HIT THE BOTTOM OF MY NECK AND THE REST HIT THE MIDDLE OF MY BACK ) NOW I LITERALLY SHAVE ALL OF IT OFF CAUSE I HATE THE MAINTAINANCE , EVERYBODY ROCKIN IT NOW THOUGH.THEY MADE FUN OF MY CLOTHES WHICK SOMETIMES HAD HOLES, WHICH NOW YEZZY COINS BIG BANK ON. BUT MOST OF ALL THEY TRYED TO MAKE FUN OF ME DANCING, BUT WHEN I SEEN THEY ASS AT THE CLUB THEY CAN'T TOUCH ME CAUSE I WOULD BE POPPIN LIKE A DUDE ON THE FLOOR .I WAS ALWAYS BULLIED FOR BEING DIFFERENT AND FOLK WERE ALWAYS SALTY AS HELL, CAUSE I GREW UP A GHETTO MUSLIM WHO'S FATHER GOT HIS OWN DAY FOR BEING THE FIRST BLACK MAN IN OREGON TO OWN HIS OWN STYLE OF MARTIAL ARTS CALLED AFAQSIRUT (AWW-FAWK-SIR-RET).BUT ANYWAYS I WAS ALSO IN WHAT THEY CALL THE NERDY PROGRAMS , THE TAG PROGRAM FOR THE TALENTED AND GIFTED BECAUSE I WAS AND STILL IS AN ART PRODIGY, I GOT PICKED ON AT HOME AND AT THE MOSQUE.I EVENTUALLY HAD NOWHERE TO TURN MIND YOU I HAVE 9+ SIBLINGS.AS I GOT OLDER IT STILL IS PREVALENT TO PEOPLE TO TRY ME EVERYDAY. I GOT JUMPED BECAUSE MY IQ WAS BIGGER THEN MY ROOMATES AND I FELT I HAD TO DUMB MYSELF DOWN TO THEM MIND YOU THEY WERE CRIMINAL BITVHES, WHOM ALSO TO THIS DAY HATE ME BECAUSE I'VE ALWAYS HAD A SPOTLESS RECORD.ETC ETC.THERE IS ALWAYS MORE BS I DEAL WITH ON THE DAILY. #milyfeazpowetri-my-life-as-poetry
Got bullied by My height nose how skinny I was and Gay “lesbian”. I’m asian by the way. But the end the day they just doin that to cut my vibe,he’ll no I’m good snap👌🏽
I got picked on all the time for being tall (stopped at 6' 2" at 16.) Also being a girl who liked "boy things" turns out a lot of women like both, so it's worked out well!
Nappy is happy. I will support you if you want to wear an Afro. I got tease for my hair for the same reason. Nappy wet hair. Now everyone is on this natural trend.
i know that when you were younger the comments stung but girl i don’t think any of those are bad things like i wish i had bigger hands and broader shoulders like bullies can turn anything even good things, they can turn it terribly
In middle school I was bullied for being bottom heavy and underprivileged consistently going to therapy has help me develop a healthy relationship with myself.
Growing up I went to a Caucasian school; I could count on one hand how many children of color there were. The other kids would always want to touch my hair and ask me why my hair looked different. In my teenage years I started straightening my hair to fit in with what I was told beautiful hair was supposed to look like. Thank goodness for UA-cam in my college years, where I found curly girls like myself who I could finally relate to and embarrass my Gorgeous. It has been over 5 years+ since I've straightened my hair. My Curls get so much love and compliments!!! Pro StyL GEL AKA that Brown Gel was the go-to for that extra hold FR FR 😂🤣😭
I was a fat kid - maiden name scales so you can imagine all the jokes about tipping the scales. The curves back then although bigger mind you, are the curves now smaller that I grew into that my husband LOVES - but most importantly, grew and birthed our daughter at 43yrs old! Yup she's 6 now and I just turned 48! The other thing was being black and living in the suburbs with a dad who worked at DuPont and was successful to give his family a different quality of life - the antiquated term "Oreo cookie" rang regularly by my black peers who thought I was better than them. Now as a nurse who is awesome I might say, the things he and my mama worked for have instilled values in me and now trickle down to my daughter. Lol, for those who picked on me - you never know when you might need a nurse who's on her game and who you treated like crap - facts, just sayin 🧚🏽♂️
Growing up I often was the chubby one and although I never got bullied, I was never considered physically attractive until I got older. The chubby meat found a more suitable place In my body🤣 basically got thick In the right places and now my body Is the one thing I get most compliments on. Take that!😌
Thank you for your honesty and relatability as always 👊🏼 Our generation had few to look at for this type of content and we just didn’t have access to the fact that we are all deserving of love and respect. The next generation should not have to have history repeat that. Beauty is not singular or exclusive; honor one another 🌈 we should know better now therefore do better if we want to move forward
You were beautiful and you are still amazing!! Big hands big magic baby... 😋😍 I am in love!! 😍😘🙌🏽 I am latino and grew up in Italy and have some good hips and the girls were very bitchy towards me... I was bullied in primary and middle school and also my neighbours kids. Massively jealousy on my olive skin, my hips and my native features. All things that people compliment me for now. Even thou I don't like compliments and always try to hide to feel comfortable and not having eyes on me... Nice content Amber. Be kind, be proud, be human! ✌🏽😘😍🙌🏽🤗💗
Ok so im not sure if this is fortuitous or ironic but i just heard the news that Chilli from TLC is boo'ed up wth Matthew Lawrence and I thought to myself, "I wonder how Amber feels about this?" And you popped up in my algorithm and I clicked on the video and here you are wearing a shirt that I swear has Left Eye on it...i know your shirt doesn't have Chilli on it persay, but i thought that was pretty cool. I read weird signs like that! If you knew me, then you'd know i go on sporadic Tonia Tangents but thats just me for you! Peace and Love to whoever reads this😘
My ex works at Whole Foods downtown. and seen u be rude to the meat department cuz u didn’t get what u wanted. They said u went kind of hard for no reason. They were like “u know that youtuber u watch?”
And she's human she's not perfect just because she's a known UA-camr. And most of the time people aren't going to tell you the whole story anyway, so I bet they didn't explain what really happened to make her go off 🤎🤎🤎 From Philly
@@dawnsilva6438 those are in consideration as well as service industry workers are not perfect, human and unrecognized lil ppl. It’s an even playing field in grocery stores that’s all. They’re allowed to have an opinion about it if they had an in person experience so I didn’t really add my opinion I actually continue to watch Amber and like her so I just thought I would mention it it was just a little strange but no she’s not like a bad person I wouldn’t go there
Amber, can you just send me that poor plant behind your clothes (left side)? She’s dying over there and this is killing me 😅 I LOVE plants. Just send it over to me and I’ll take good care of her. 🖤
People TRIED to bully me on my forehead and hair BUT didn't know that my PETTY a$$ mouth and QUICK wit along with my FEARLESS spirits would rip their soul right out of their body. In the END I was considered the one not to mess with or that I was crazy. Worked for me cause I really like being in my peaceful place. I'm 50 and people still try me but wish they didn't. Word on the street is that I'm evil 😂. Nope, I'm just good at giving back 😜 without FEAR 😉. ALWAYS & FOREVER 💯
“But at the end of the day they were just mad because I was unique” OK Attitude 😝🥰 SNAPS
💁🏽♀️✊🏽
“People that are happy or confident in themselves don’t spend their time making fun of others.” This! This! This! I think I was mostly made fun of for my glasses. I legit have awful vision, so my lenses were really thick back then too! Now I have contacts and typically prefer to wear those.
Also, I love that you are able to embrace the things you were once made fun of for now. Growth! ❤️
Yep. I was called fat, but when I moved to the south I was called thick. Worked out for me.
Straight facts! People hated my accent (Caribbean), my big feet, big hands, the way I dressed, people called me “gay” all the time and now it’s the complete opposite.

My favorite fellow Virgo! So nice to see you. Thanks for the uplifting video lovely. 💜
Very well said. It boils down to an overgrown, weak, immature, bully, needing control with a sense of entitlement and false sense of power.

5’10” here and I have big hands and big feet too! People made fun of me for my height and man hands, but now I get regular compliments on being tall.

Amber u r amazing n I love your videos every time I watch your video I get inform n learn about different issues that I can relate too thank u for being the gorgeous woman that u r love ya❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
wow when you brought out the AMPRO GEL I got flashbacks hahahahha my nails used to be brown from it hahahaahah madness!!!!!
I definitely relate to the hair struggles it can be hard being mixed and finding your place.
I agree to 99% of this except when I’ve finally let a person have it one good time they stopped! Sometimes folks will keep fucking with you until you check them just 1 good sufficient time…
This was too relatable 😭 but my nose. I used to get clown on for how “small” it is but now people that see me say it looks perfect and I don’t know what to say 😅
You are such an amazing person who spreads out so much positive energy!💖
I love your content (& love you lol) !! Greetings from the Netherlands :)
You are beautiful Amber. Can't wait for your show!!
Yup, so on point.
I went through a little chubby stage, before that turned into beautiful curves.. And I couldn't get away from the compliments!
Truthfully, bullys still exist as adults.. I just went through a horrible job situation where an insecure little weedy gay man loved to pick on all the women.. It was tough! But it was absolutely clear that he loved to pick on the good things about us, so as much as it sucked, at least it was obvious it was about his insecurities and inabilities making him feel treatened for being shown up as not all that. I had to learn alot about narcism fast. I tried to lift him up for ages, but nope, he was determined to tear us down. Sad guy! We all deserve better 💕
Hang in there, whether it's today, or in the past, I totally agree, our uniqueness is beautiful!! And secure people don't find that scary, they find it hot 🔥
I use to get made fun of because I have ADHD and also because I was in special education but as I look back on it I feel more comfortable and confident thanks to your video Amber but every so often those bad memories come back to me how do I avoid that?
Facts. I was always teased for having a long neck (called a giraffe,) and pronounced collar bones. Baby, it’s all love now! I’m showing this to my daughter. ☺️
Amber is thee most beautiful human in social media land. super Intelligent , confident and most importantly emotionally Intelligent and that making for a wise soul. and then there's her beauty, people Amber is gorgeoussss
Hey Amber this was a very inspiring video.
It's crazy how people are so busy looking outward judging how others look over just looking at who they are and fixing whatever issue they have. I have had to deal with the short jokes but it never hurt me 5'4.
My body hair (I'm half Mexican and half white). Got a lot of crap about my appearance, to the point of having a nick name they gave me based on my being hairy and Latina. It sucked. But luckily I don't have to interact with them anymore. It still haunts me though. And even though in other ways I'm so into being a proud Latina, I still have that voice in my head that says I'm ugly and hates my face.
I got made fun of for being hairy, for being Mexican, for having heavier eyebrows and now I happily live in Mexico, love my body hair, and get complimented on mg eyebrows a lot
I appreciate the knowledge drops that you incorporate into your videos👏👏👏👏👏
ITS FUNNY HOW WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL PEOPLE MADE FUN OF MY HAIR TOO EXCEPT THEY USE TO CALL ME BALD HEADED (WHEN MY BANGS HIT THE BOTTOM OF MY NECK AND THE REST HIT THE MIDDLE OF MY BACK ) NOW I LITERALLY SHAVE ALL OF IT OFF CAUSE I HATE THE MAINTAINANCE , EVERYBODY ROCKIN IT NOW THOUGH.THEY MADE FUN OF MY CLOTHES WHICK SOMETIMES HAD HOLES, WHICH NOW YEZZY COINS BIG BANK ON. BUT MOST OF ALL THEY TRYED TO MAKE FUN OF ME DANCING, BUT WHEN I SEEN THEY ASS AT THE CLUB THEY CAN'T TOUCH ME CAUSE I WOULD BE POPPIN LIKE A DUDE ON THE FLOOR .I WAS ALWAYS BULLIED FOR BEING DIFFERENT AND FOLK WERE ALWAYS SALTY AS HELL, CAUSE I GREW UP A GHETTO MUSLIM WHO'S FATHER GOT HIS OWN DAY FOR BEING THE FIRST BLACK MAN IN OREGON TO OWN HIS OWN STYLE OF MARTIAL ARTS CALLED AFAQSIRUT (AWW-FAWK-SIR-RET).BUT ANYWAYS I WAS ALSO IN WHAT THEY CALL THE NERDY PROGRAMS , THE TAG PROGRAM FOR THE TALENTED AND GIFTED BECAUSE I WAS AND STILL IS AN ART PRODIGY, I GOT PICKED ON AT HOME AND AT THE MOSQUE.I EVENTUALLY HAD NOWHERE TO TURN MIND YOU I HAVE 9+ SIBLINGS.AS I GOT OLDER IT STILL IS PREVALENT TO PEOPLE TO TRY ME EVERYDAY. I GOT JUMPED BECAUSE MY IQ WAS BIGGER THEN MY ROOMATES AND I FELT I HAD TO DUMB MYSELF DOWN TO THEM MIND YOU THEY WERE CRIMINAL BITVHES, WHOM ALSO TO THIS DAY HATE ME BECAUSE I'VE ALWAYS HAD A SPOTLESS RECORD.ETC ETC.THERE IS ALWAYS MORE BS I DEAL WITH ON THE DAILY. #milyfeazpowetri-my-life-as-poetry
Got bullied by My height nose how skinny I was and Gay “lesbian”. I’m asian by the way. But the end the day they just doin that to cut my vibe,he’ll no I’m good snap👌🏽
I got picked on all the time for being tall (stopped at 6' 2" at 16.) Also being a girl who liked "boy things" turns out a lot of women like both, so it's worked out well!
Nappy is happy. I will support you if you want to wear an Afro. I got tease for my hair for the same reason. Nappy wet hair. Now everyone is on this natural trend.
i know that when you were younger the comments stung but girl i don’t think any of those are bad things like i wish i had bigger hands and broader shoulders like bullies can turn anything even good things, they can turn it terribly
In middle school I was bullied for being bottom heavy and underprivileged consistently going to therapy has help me develop a healthy relationship with myself.
Growing up I went to a Caucasian school; I could count on one hand how many children of color there were. The other kids would always want to touch my hair and ask me why my hair looked different. In my teenage years I started straightening my hair to fit in with what I was told beautiful hair was supposed to look like. Thank goodness for UA-cam in my college years, where I found curly girls like myself who I could finally relate to and embarrass my Gorgeous. It has been over 5 years+ since I've straightened my hair.
My Curls get so much love and compliments!!!
Pro StyL GEL AKA that Brown Gel was the go-to for that extra hold FR FR 😂🤣😭
I was teased for my high forhead, now I think I'm just unique and it's actually pretty proportional when I look at it now. I have wide shoulders also.
I was a fat kid - maiden name scales so you can imagine all the jokes about tipping the scales. The curves back then although bigger mind you, are the curves now smaller that I grew into that my husband LOVES - but most importantly, grew and birthed our daughter at 43yrs old! Yup she's 6 now and I just turned 48!
The other thing was being black and living in the suburbs with a dad who worked at DuPont and was successful to give his family a different quality of life - the antiquated term "Oreo cookie" rang regularly by my black peers who thought I was better than them. Now as a nurse who is awesome I might say, the things he and my mama worked for have instilled values in me and now trickle down to my daughter. Lol, for those who picked on me - you never know when you might need a nurse who's on her game and who you treated like crap - facts, just sayin 🧚🏽♂️
Thank you amber 😭😭💚🖤💙
Growing up I often was the chubby one and although I never got bullied, I was never considered physically attractive until I got older. The chubby meat found a more suitable place In my body🤣 basically got thick In the right places and now my body Is the one thing I get most compliments on. Take that!😌
Thank you for your honesty and relatability as always 👊🏼 Our generation had few to look at for this type of content and we just didn’t have access to the fact that we are all deserving of love and respect. The next generation should not have to have history repeat that. Beauty is not singular or exclusive; honor one another 🌈 we should know better now therefore do better if we want to move forward
Hi Amber. I love you and all the things u do... Xx
I was made fun of for being a crybaby. Now people respect the way I can be in tune with my emotions.
I was way to quite for them that was "abnormal" they thought i needed a therapist some. i was stupid.😂😂😂😂it's funny right now when i think about it
It's the Face fa ME!!🥰
My hair, how skinny I am, my neck for some reason oh and most of all : my sexuality ✨
Girl, I love you!!! Thanks
her eyes are ❤

You make the world beautiful.❤️❤️❤️
You were beautiful and you are still amazing!! Big hands big magic baby... 😋😍 I am in love!! 😍😘🙌🏽 I am latino and grew up in Italy and have some good hips and the girls were very bitchy towards me... I was bullied in primary and middle school and also my neighbours kids. Massively jealousy on my olive skin, my hips and my native features. All things that people compliment me for now. Even thou I don't like compliments and always try to hide to feel comfortable and not having eyes on me... Nice content Amber. Be kind, be proud, be human! ✌🏽😘😍🙌🏽🤗💗
I was looking for a new video!!
I was made fun of for my mole above my lip so bad but then as I got older I embraced it and now everyone is dotting moles on there faces now. Lol
Being voluptuous 🤠
Yes to the hands 🤩🤩😍
For being a big girl and big legs big breast and baby face. Now people love my thighs and love my baby face. For 53 i look 30.
Wow amber, this is amazing.
My nose, my hair, my voice...just to name a few.
Ok so im not sure if this is fortuitous or ironic but i just heard the news that Chilli from TLC is boo'ed up wth Matthew Lawrence and I thought to myself, "I wonder how Amber feels about this?" And you popped up in my algorithm and I clicked on the video and here you are wearing a shirt that I swear has Left Eye on it...i know your shirt doesn't have Chilli on it persay, but i thought that was pretty cool. I read weird signs like that! If you knew me, then you'd know i go on sporadic Tonia Tangents but thats just me for you! Peace and Love to whoever reads this😘
Luv it
Happy Nationals Women's Day ❤️💯
This video is amazing
Amber 🙏🏻😌
Amber I think you are beautiful just the way you are
I know a light skin girl look like Micheal Jackson. Girl you are fine 😍😍😍
🔥👏🏾🔥👏🏾🔥👏🏾🔥👏🏾
You are on the new Orleans commercial
My ex works at Whole Foods downtown. and seen u be rude to the meat department cuz u didn’t get what u wanted. They said u went kind of hard for no reason. They were like “u know that youtuber u watch?”
And she's human she's not perfect just because she's a known UA-camr. And most of the time people aren't going to tell you the whole story anyway, so I bet they didn't explain what really happened to make her go off 🤎🤎🤎 From Philly
@Cris I’ll add it could have been someone else. it’s 2nd hand info. but also add i don’t eat meat 🍖 no deli 4 me
@@dawnsilva6438 those are in consideration as well as service industry workers are not perfect, human and unrecognized lil ppl. It’s an even playing field in grocery stores that’s all. They’re allowed to have an opinion about it if they had an in person experience so I didn’t really add my opinion I actually continue to watch Amber and like her so I just thought I would mention it it was just a little strange but no she’s not like a bad person I wouldn’t go there
Do you have actual locs yet or...?
I had to grow into my hair, my breast and my height
Amber, can you just send me that poor plant behind your clothes (left side)? She’s dying over there and this is killing me 😅 I LOVE plants. Just send it over to me and I’ll take good care of her. 🖤
My mom did say she look like Micheal Jackson
Hi love 💕
Big eyes, dark skin, vertically challenged😁 and big behind...now they watch me walk away 😉
Now that’s all you see some ppl trying to get
I love u all e way frm Zimbabwe
People TRIED to bully me on my forehead and hair BUT didn't know that my PETTY a$$ mouth and QUICK wit along with my FEARLESS spirits would rip their soul right out of their body. In the END I was considered the one not to mess with or that I was crazy. Worked for me cause I really like being in my peaceful place. I'm 50 and people still try me but wish they didn't. Word on the street is that I'm evil 😂. Nope, I'm just good at giving back 😜 without FEAR 😉. ALWAYS & FOREVER 💯
❤
