What I hate about my body

accreditation
Rene Van Niekerk: I would have my body hair permanently removed. Legs and down there, underarms and some facial hair.

Joanne Eve Taylor: I'd like to pick up some weight and have B cup boobs! I'm very skinny. I had my second baby 5 weeks ago and I'm down to 50kg already! And I want bigger boobs because they've always been smaller than A.

Gaelen De Klerk: My stomach is big and wobbly. My nose is sharp and bumpy. Hard choice!

Teshnica-Tessa Willie: I have big breast and very big hips I have pimples and spots on my face I’m a teenager (and we all know how perfect teenagers want to be) but I won’t change anything on my body because I don’t need a spotless face and perfect body to live my life to the fullest. I’m already doing it and that’s the best way to thank God for how He created you.

Andrea Tomasicchio: Definitely my big nose. If I was not so afraid of going under the knife, I would have it fixed!

Shirley Robyn Stain: I would totally get a boob job, because they are just not the shape I want them to be. You can work out as much as you want on the shape of your body but boobs? No amount of exercise will change that!! Donations welcome.

Nanasei Gats Mofolo: My hair, because I did dreads and when I took them off, my hairline was affected.

And this is what the girls in our office had to say:

Tammy February: I know I’m not perfect, but I’m happy that way.

Zodidi Dano: I’d love to be a little bit taller because I’m tired of heels.

Caro de Waal: My lips! I wish I had Angelina-type pouty blow-jobby lips, not thin lemon lips.

Shaakirah De Vries: Uhm I’d change my hair! I’d want it longer and curlier. Lol.

Kele Scheppers: Personally? The one part of my face that I would change is probably my teeth. One of them is a little skew from sucking my thumb when I was a child. I’ve wanted to get braces since I was a teen. Part of me would still like to, but another part of me things it brings a little unique trait to my face. In terms of my body, I’d love slightly perkier boobs. I’m too frightened by the idea of surgery though, so I’m decided to settle for padded bras instead.

Zeni Papu: I’d like to have a butt because mine is just not there the way I want it to be.
