Beauty is a loose concept. But the fact that in all its manifestations it invariably requires sacrifice is an indisputable fact. Here are just all sorts of manipulations in beauty salons and plastic operations pale in comparison with those victims, which are women from various countries of Southeast Asia and the African continent.
Attention! Nervous is not recommended for familiarization! But if a beloved man believes that your manicure or new earrings are not worth the money spent, then by all means tell him about such facts of awesome beauty. He will certainly make the right conclusions about your irresistible!
Beauties with giraffe necks
Plastic surgeons nervously smoke aside when it comes to achieving perfection with the help of improvised and not always safe for health tools. For such an occasion, women of the Padaung tribe from Myanmar can be attributed. To achieve the standard of perfection, they resort to neck lengthening with the help of massive rings.
Subject to such a correction of the neck with 5 years of age. The more rings, the older the woman. The abundance of massive brass rings only adds to the attractiveness as brides for marriage. The more of these neck ornaments, the higher the chances of finding a worthy candidate for a husband, because the men of the tribe see this as a special feminine beauty. And nothing that under the pressure of massive rings not only the neck is unnaturally stretched, but also the forearm falls, because we all know that the ideal of beauty requires sacrifice.
Chinese Cinderella Feet
Heels and stilettos are not such an agony in the name of beauty, if you only think about how for a long time the young Chinese women have achieved the effect of elegance of the legs. From childhood, they tightly bandaged their legs to modify their feet, giving them the shape of a sacred lotus. A deformed foot was considered the best sign of femininity.
Pain, discomfort during walking and various bone diseases were placed on the sacrificial altar in the name of beauty and attractiveness in the eyes of men. Fortunately, the lotus legs went out of fashion, and Chinese women could breathe a sigh of relief, because without this grueling procedure they can be incredibly feminine.
Manure cosmetics
The healing mud of the Dead Sea is not a pleasure for every African. Therefore, we have to be content with cosmetics from improvised means, as, for example, women of the Himba tribe do. Living in the desert of Namibia, they bother to keep beautiful and elastic skin, even constantly being in the sun. To do this, women Himba use a special ointment, which includes oil, tree bark and ... manure. Every day they put such healing ointment on themselves from head to toe and calmly do their routine work. Additive to the resin ointment from the local shrub gives a specific red color.
A special effect is created by wigs or hairstyles in the form of dreadlocks, which are also applied ointment. But even with the removal of several lower teeth, indicating that the girl is becoming a girl for extradition, Himba is considered one of the most beautiful African women.
Facial tattoo
Make-up is nothing compared to the masterpieces of art created by women from the New Zealand Maori tribe, decorating their faces with T-moko tattoos. For them, it is not only the symbolism of individual beauty, but also a kind of passport that can tell the whole world about the characteristics of the character and life of each of them. In addition, the Maori are confident that the tattoo allows them to permanently preserve unfading beauty and youth.
Bald beauties with ears to shoulders
Women of the African Masai tribe emphasize their irresistible elongated earlobes. For this, wooden discs are implanted into the ears, and they are attached to such victims in the name of beauty almost from infancy. With age, they increase the amount of jewelry, which makes it heavier and allows you to stretch the earlobes to the shoulders.
The longer they get, the more beautiful the girl is in the eyes of her fellow tribesmen. But, wanting to be transformed into true beauties, Maasai women shave their heads and knock out their front teeth for complete delight in the eyes of the tribe’s men. Such an awesome beauty - and try not to fall in love!
Scars not only adorn men
A well-known saying about women seems absurd, but for the African tribe Surma, a huge number of scars are not a perversion, but a demonstration of attractiveness and endurance. But by itself, the procedure of creating such beauty brings quiet horror. Rings are made all over the body, and a mixture of ashes and sap of local plants is rubbed into the wounds, which causes terrible skin irritation, but allows the original bulge to give the scars.
Lips cooler than Jolie
This is the dream of many women. But a radical approach to the improvement of the lips among women of the Ethiopian Mursi tribe (often surm) leads to quiet horror. Upon reaching the age of 18, a special disc is implanted into her lip. First, a small diameter, and gradually, when the lip is stretched, it is replaced by a similar object of increasing diameter.
To make the implanted disc ideally protruding the lip, lower teeth are removed. The larger the diameter of the disc, the higher social status is awarded to the girl, which allows her to claim a favorable marriage. But it is hard to believe that this is a being of the fair sex, and not a fiend of hell.
Although, beauty is first of all the ability to be yourself, and every nation has its own idea about it.
