So wacheni niwapatie ka story, You would never have seen a close-up picture of myself because I was always told ‘Ukona JAWS MBAYA! JAWS ZA WABABA, JAWS ZINAKAA MBAO IMECHONGWA , JAWS ZA KANYE WEST, JAWS ZA MTU HAJAKULA MIEZI KADHAA, JAWS UGLY!!! Etc etc... 😳I would only show a close up on video since I knew how to maneuver and hide them, I would always have long braids/wigs to hide, some makeup artist used to tell me “you have a beautiful jawline” I used to ignore because I thought ni chocha tu to make me feel good, but I later realised this is something I cannot change, and therefore I chose to Embrace them, by donning short hair or show them more, clearly people may make you hate some part of yourself so you grow up knowing, your forehead is ugly or Arms or legs etc, what I can say is, DO NOT ALLOW! Those comments to get to you because they will be affecting you as you carry them, so here I am accepting each and every “Flaw” Pole pole❤️ #wcw

Fans of the actress have reacted to her post, with many encouraging her to ignore trolls.

makeupbykanana Mamaa, afadhari yako ilikuwa jawline... I grew up being told that I have big lips and a slender nose that makes everything on my face unpropotional. I had so many insecurities that I couldn't even laugh before people. Simply because in my head I thought my face was not okay. Later on, that's when am realizing that people are actually doing all manner of things to have fuller lips 🙄😂😂Na mimi zangu ziko tu hapa hazihitaji chochote. This is what I told myself that I am fearfully and wonderfully created. No ones looks like me and I would hate it if I ever became or looked like some else. I love me. Helloo namesake, cheers 🍻 to our jawline and big lips 👄 🙌🏽🙌🏽🔥😍😘
