The girl of article wants to cut out memories of her childhood from her memory.
Perhaps childhood is the most beautiful and happiest time in life for every person, but there are children for whom this time was filled with fears, worries and depressions that leave a huge imprint on their whole lives.
The girl of today’s article refers to such children, as she wants to cut out the memories of her childhood from her memory. And the reason for this was her unusual appearance.
The girl was born with a strange face – it seemed to be flattened. School years for Ilka Brühl were filled with continuous suffering, ridicule and humiliation.
She never had any friends or girlfriends and was full of self-doubt. Over time, the girl underwent plastic surgery, but this did not greatly affect her appearance.
The birth defect of her face that she had was difficult to correct. She had two ways – either get used to her extraordinary appearance and try to live a normal life, or continue a reclusive life and keep her emotions to herself. Ilka preferred the first option. One day, a photographer she knew from childhood offered her to pose for a photo shoot, and she agreed, without even thinking how it could end.
And the result was an incredible success on the Internet, as numerous users were delighted with the appearance of the girl. Advertising agencies also became interested in the unusual girl, and Ilka received several offers of cooperation from agencies.
So, a fluke turned the “ugly duckling” into a popular model, because photographers have their own vision of beauty. In the abundance of beautiful and already familiar faces, which are all somewhat similar to each other, the unusual ”alien” beauty is increasingly attracting the attention of the public.
Maybe Ilka’s example will be an impetus for other girls with a non-standard appearance to love and believe in themselves, to look at themselves from a different angle – the look of a creative person.
