which dawkins and protects the skin while you're so with this mix cream, the joe and the other room jamaica used to be a calling me. it's for my british rulers, brought brutal slave labor to the caribbean islands. 90 percent of people here are of african origin. rigging, musicians often sing about those roots. yet the bleaching cream business is booming under the account so that you can also by dubious mixed use of things like toothpaste, chemicals, and curry. so why do so many people bleach the skin? they say it's because society is still an equal, because white skin symbolizes affluence, the slaves with black. but why do you do it? why

is me going out of bunk? i mean, i mean take it on the go to view. oh boy. yeah. and are you, why do we get to pass that? i mean, yeah, sorry. let's just say i to make them doing white beauty norms or colonial throwback, but also a pop cultural trend. instead of like people here joining forces to fight racism. university professor, don't know who says that the reason instead a hierarchy of skin tone in jamaica, 36 problem. but i think the 16 people, while most of the light at the top are more of those more people wide dark, or i at the bottom of the society that'd be have to see probably lightning disk. and as a way of, you know, edited beating themselves and uplifting them so, so the society has a lot of work to do. awesome target is mixing his special recipe usage inside of it . it's a bit of face and a bit of that he works really well. he tells me. but the written is it causes it's hard so weak. no, he found bleaching trendy. the light to look went down well with women,

but now he can't stop. he says something to get 3 of the i'm in the look, let me just see if it to before and after. so it's not necessarily why it does bro, we call it bro. and even then bro and skin to ski more like chrome, chrome. but don't, does like l for dogs, one that bleaching tends to thin skin and make it crack rushes and will come in. he doesn't operate people who are bleaching because it's too many complications of that nature of the area. when you're trying to close with switches, you actually have the stitches tearing through it because the thermoses over the hill, some creams may look harmless enough, but they contain hydro clean own. the e u has been contacting cosmetics because it is suspected of causing cancer. some african countries have also begun binding bleaching creams,

but in jamaica companies are still selling the message that light skin is attractive. it's a public health crisis. that is great because we don't know the long term effects of having all of these steroids and creams being absorbed into the system. many ignore the risks clubbing in kingston is about seeing and being seen. but it's also about bleaching people once and looked like that pop idols. no one knows exactly how many people lighten the skins. no, everyone is happy to talk about it. the i don't have a problem with the person that believes in their opinion. if they want to get ahold of nearby, do minutes or some jamaicans are trying to fight the trend. these loved your skin acts of this a visiting a go school to spread the message and raise awareness of the issue you're gabrielle

morris is also encouraging the goes to be proud of ancestry. you know, we're told all the time you would give me a cobalt based on cobalt that you need from like the sound of the like that's i want you guys to know that it's ok during the discussion someone else what you do do if one of your friends, bleaches, i think then that all right, what's going on identifying that you're doing these particular being? what's the problem? i maybe have a discussion. it's a delicate topic. some people would like to see more black celebrities and more of them acting as role models. i feel like also in the model industry, you see lots of white people. we need more of the people to settle some of that. yeah. embrace yourself because we're seeing too many why i also have so many people

believed in trying to be a white person. more dialogue is needed in jamaica status and skin color, a closely interconnected person's desk, right? you know, darker skin color to miss opportunities unless you come out make powerless, political, pointless social power until 8 as we seek to kind of change stuff on sheep the pull up balance. we have to start to educate people in optimal target and korean. the omens neighborhood, they say a lot of people bleach the skin. she says that some probably think it will help them and that left lives and, and that jobs right now, but like a confliction i is just a certain a with it will be with you a certain we, if you know, and i'm due to a prep for so what kind of jamaica with her nephew grow up and they hope that he wouldn't need to bleach to become more visible in society. the, the,

the grand beauty salon in leipzig, the people who work here are familiar with different cultural preferences and beauty standards. the international team consists nearly exclusively of people with a refugee or migrant background. most are professionally trained in their craft and some self taught. but every client seems to appreciate their know how of the i'm the i'm, it's different here than in other beauty salons. i've only been once before to a beauty salon in germany, and then i went because of a friend of mine. many of the customers are migrants rarely or never go to a beauty salon in germany. some feel uncomfortable or sometimes wearing a headscarf might make a visit to a conventional hair dresser, can possibly come up in all you can just close your eyes while i apply the make up

terms, which is maybe try to relax a bit. so did you get here? ok, mara wants to grand beauty salon to be a safe space. was done over 100000 was this was invoice list a place where they like to be treated where they feel comfortable overcome, where they don't get any comments about the texture of their hair or skin color, but can just have a seat in that and share their thoughts about anything from somebody's in a more critical way and shouldn't be done. and also sort of marty to show the makeup artist says, visiting a beautician in germany can often be a discriminatory experience where people of color, she has little doubt about why that is partridge for her to y'all are here. this misguided beauty standards. fine, which are both extremely western and white. this matter they can leave a person feeling inadequate if they don't correspond to this ideal of beauty office, especially since they might not fit in with any other kind of pursuing. has it?

yeah, that's pushing. so many salons only carry cosmetic products for lighter skin tones i've often tried to use make up for white skin, and it makes me feel like a clown. yea. but here it's all very natural. so i'm very grateful to talk of flesh is a performance artist and cultural educator. she found that the grand beauty project for a long time grand beauty was immobile beauty salon moving between german cities were fall gonna enter team organized workshops, but the permanent location here in likes it has been open for a year now. and last night he had on halls comes as we often see 1st time encounters between people who otherwise wouldn't have crossed paths in their everyday lives. many places where communities simply don't mean i text leaving

because people are more likely to stay in their own circles. speaking the same language. yeah. and so i'm end up liking the monday pleasure to try it nicely. cool . now is one of the largest pre fabricated housing estates built in the former communist east germany. nowadays. it's a low income area where many residents have a negative view of foreigners. the intercultural salon is located right here in a park. a headset wants to educate people through her work there. her own experiences as a young muslim woman indicate it is much needed. and you must be mission of us was most dilemma phobia is very noticeable when dealing with the german authorities and within the school system this morning this i have many nieces and nephews with whom i love spending time. the money drives me crazy, but i'm told again and again i'm on i um just need to fax it off to clear. well dodge? yeah. wow. you speak such a german one very and i would like to reply yes dear,

i'd sure hope so since i was born here a month in germany, my native language wasn't the not even worse. so the people who make nasty comments, i'm try to spit it me move away or leave a room as soon as i enter. if i miss her louder, start asking insensitive questions. um yeah, i would, i am in this creative problem. then she would like the grand beauty salon to be a meeting place that brings people from different cultures together in a relaxed atmosphere and helps to overcome prejudices. sions by them onto the and then so you want to show to down here in a bit longer on the top you don't have much on the fine have my son left sooner have dinner. this is called the little bones 4th time and that's alone. she's lived and likely go now for almost 30 years, but she hardly knows anyone with a migrant background. well,

he'll say i'm about to in house to the house and there are a few ukrainians living in our building quite, you know, they're nice people, but it's not easy to talk to them because of the language barrier. those photo books then can only go to their german, isn't that good? yeah, and this is close to home for here, dresser, if the sounds a 12015, she crossed the mediterranean sea to flee the civil war in libya before arriving in germany cutting here has allowed her to improve her german and make new contacts. the beauticians work on a donation basis and the project is funded by grants many on the ground beauty team has only been given temporary permission to remain in germany and don't have work permits. the volunteer hours only count as an internship. but they increase the chances of obtaining

a residence permit is quick to tablets to since our program is part of an art project that gives people the opportunity to work on a voluntary basis. um this mentioned an emphasis, i don't necessarily need the residents treatment for that. and uh, and if everything works out well, if everyone gets along and is ready to turn this into a part time job and i will continue down that path many dropped, no sports, kid spiteful. to know. i daily working in the salon could be a stepping stone to getting into the german beauty industry, which could do with a lot more diversity according to mar, in berlin. she teaches at the german pop academy training center for aspiring makeup artist and on the side, she freelance is as one herself. she believes that her hand scarf is the

reason why she hasn't been offered a permanent job anywhere. who don't say enough for me. so i would have loved to treat it as a hairdresser, but i didn't fit in so well with the teams at the salons where i applied to miss um, not even after getting my diploma as a makeup artist of hair designer of this thing. so to be able to dress the way i like, i had to start my own business. miss thompson, come in today's class, she doubles as a model while teaching that's my search. i fro hair, arabic, coal, or asian eyeliner. she wants to train her students to meet all of their potential customers needs, even if the mannequins remain western european for the time being a model for her. if you have normal hair spray, it was something 1st so that it doesn't get all fun things which model has to is convinced that beauty salons can promote tolerance, and that the grand beauty salon in leipzig can serve as an example. let's think of

those. i think this is exactly what we need from time every day. places like this to come together to them even if we don't like each other in the streets. i don't want to look at each other and run the sample. well, best thing is when something changes inside our customers and they get a new perspective such as on and off in most plan, not the . what makes someone be useful. who defines that? and what role does society play? these models are preparing for a photo shoots in a parking run, but they quite unique albino sisters, matilda, and angelica, or really being client by the italian modeling agency in perfecta, which is set itself the goal of changing popular beliefs of what constitutes the

beauty. and then to put them on this, we don't have fixed criteria for ways all regions in color or hot pretty bad holland is the only thing that matches of selecting our models saelens to for years . now some courses of the fashion industry have suit to stand out just by introducing more diversity and challenging the idea that models must be told, seeing and as little as possible, raising eyebrows, we've models that stand out from the crowd is the essence of this agencies brand condo people, when i was a kid, people would touch my head to see if it was real or a week. a full set of putting up i'd requested for sort of a as an aspiring model name, a luger had to overcome many difficult totals before he was hired by the input fed to agency. they told me the i had to do something with my skin because it wasn't right. so well, i had to cut my hair because it wasn't present both for the car and so i had to

lose weight in recent years, many labels have begun using largest size models to advertise the clothing but it rates and shows in milan, paris, and new york city size 0 appears to be back. almost all the models were extraordinarily seen. these, the party positivity trend, ask once the game was it old just to publish as you move powers, fashion, journalist of exposed. i wasn't surprised at this latest development today, practically every show has to have at least one or 2 oversized models. it's all this trend and fashion of inclusive, very of course diversity is also a little bit of a green washing at times when you look in the stores. and if you ask for a huge size, they don't have it. they're really have. yeah, has large and maybe extra large, but then they don't have x x x. so it may be

a trend, but it has had an effect on the industries image of beauty, models of different types and the cities are more popular than ever. it's also more common for magazines to feature models with disabilities, or ones that are older. is this trend going to continue? i think it's going to continue, but maybe not as much as the price and social media is making out of it. that may be the case, but the impact fits the agency has steadily landed more contracts since they started in 2020 minutes or so that more time. so it was very difficult because the labels were only used to working with one type of model got be and it's been gradually more moon labels realize not important. guess what? the actual representing the customers. and that's the data for his instead of manager. but we'll be going to defend even though it's no longer only the labels it's assigned. what's attractive and trendy now consume. is that having

a say the next generation is part of a changing society, the values diversity. and they won't models who reflects these times the she's made it a g minus n, yanna models haute couture, pricing catwalks around the world. she's at home in kenya and grew up in a village in the countries in coverage northwest. at the age of 18, a german us and yanna was crowned to miss nairobi, and shortly afterwards she became an international top model, came into the hyphen scene in french, 2006. and um yeah, for us it was so difficult to get some these shows back in the days. so to get

a show like running to know is like, was it's a big deal at school less than young i'm was teased because of has skin tone. but those days are long gone. coming from home, where the beauty standards, why are they like tell you why the more beautiful you well, or i felt like, oh my gosh finally, these people who think i'm beautiful. so i felt i felt ex, accepted whether it's cold, locally or internationally. it feels like finally visa movement to appreciate people who tend to like easy is on trains. an issue, a purchase moves, kids 9 african models. the magazine said, we're redefining what it is to be a session model like models that presented was out natural black hat. the cover

unleashed a mix of reactions, some sorts as a step towards equality. but among the critics, for me, the john to office p, our expert and john list fashion has also been an interest of has and she was skeptical that my issue made me with the cover was the fact that it was obviously an exaggerated idea of blackness. and the models had the skins darkened um for the shoots. so for instance, in this, in this picture here as part of the general idea to really you can see that the, the skin has been dolphin significantly. that and the straits had whigs, she says, corresponds with west and ideas about africa, rather than representing a step towards racial equality on the catwalk. while it's stunning and visually appealing, it's not exactly a realistic day to day representation of the everyday black personal,

the every day black model. so i think if you look at the objective of the sheets versus the execution, it didn't necessarily match up, which was my main, my main issue. i think the black community deserves to critique these kinds of images and the ways that they are produced. yet the campaign still awake and the interest of many young african women who so modeling as a dream, joan mobile agency, head lindsey mackintosh, is also aware of the downside of this trend. talk models might get paid up to $10000.00 euros per campaign, but such jobs are few and far between and the work unpredictable. this wondering while that goes for modeling in general, she says, after can you come as they see from the big challenges, it would be hard enough for a girl coming from a city like not ready to go to new york and be a must in this rob superficial world,

where everything is about what you look like and people have no qualms about telling you. sorry, you're not right for the job though. you have temples on your legs or, you know, any other thing, you go to have very healthy, self esteem. i think to, to cope with being a model yet many still hope for success. issues outside the victoria and albert museum in london session is frequently exhibited here, often european fashion. a recent landmark exhibition showcased africa is fashion seen with african models. the 1st of its kind, the show and to address europe's colonial legacy and the colonized fashion. west and design is have loan appropriated african designs. but now africa and models of african origin, all beginning to get the platform. camila rose lived in london for a few years and had childhood before have parents returned to sell to me off the coast of central africa. she decided to come back to london where she launched

a modeling career. but it's been a struggle. i think before because of the racism, but now i think we assessed a septic to know more than before. it's now come, pains about like beauty in anything that has to do with those things may be better than they were with us still room for improvement. natural african has styles a still not fully accepted on wisdom capital. camilla is familiar with the problem when i was young, my mom, she straight my head and asked to use all sides still. and now i need to embrace my own head is waiting outside. now not true. otherwise any green my black v t. old black moves, enjoying the like 6, she's in the,
