How would you describe the current beauty standards in Korea, and in what ways do you feel they influence everyday life or people’s self‑image? Do you think these standards are changing with younger generations or social media trends? If you’re comfortable, I’d love to hear any personal experiences or observations you’ve noticed in your community.
Hi! thank you so much for the response! Do you find that its abnormal to dye your hair and have brightly coloured manicures in your area?
Dyeing hair: Depends on the colour. Natural ones (brown) are common, but I don’t see many outside of that. Long hair isn’t common but anything that goes above your shoulders isn’t something people would consider to be abnormal.
Bright coloured manicure: Yes, but I am weird. Girls seems to like it when I use clear ones, though.
What color would you want to dye your hair?
For now it’s brown. I might redo the same thing but slightly brighter, though bleaching and getting something super bright isn’t off the table.
