A WOMAN has been cruelly shamed for proudly showing off her armpit hair.
Candace Cynthia, an artist and mother from Canada, proudly flaunts her thick hair for all to see and loves her natural beauty, no matter what cruel trolls say.
The content creator describes herself as ‘a little witchy’ and in a recent clip that was shared to social media, Candace clapped back at mean shamers who question her decision to show off her body hair.
In response to a comment that asked: “Why are you proud of our armpit hair?”, Candace set the record straight and explained: “Because I grew it all by myself.
“Also, growing out my armpit hair changed my life for the better.
“I was a single mum with a disability, struggling to figure out what I was gonna do to provide for myself and my child, when I started growing out my body hair.”
Candace then claimed that thanks to her armpit hair, she can make money for her and her child.
She continued: “After sharing images of my body hair on Instagram, I grew a large following, which allowed me to start a fan page and start monetising it.
“Growing my armpit hair was also very healing. It allowed me to dive deep into the deepest, darkest part of me and learn to love even those parts.
“And that’s why I’m so proud of my armpit hair.”
In the short clip, we saw Candace wear a strappy top, as she proudly lifted her arm up to show her dark armpit hair.
The body confident woman beamed for the camera, clearly unphased by what people think about her body hair.
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @candace.cynthia, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly amassed 129,000 views.
But social media users were left divided at Candace’s clip.
While some gushed over her beauty, others were downright disgusted.
One person said: “Naturally, you are very beautiful.”
Another added: “Gorgeous.”
A third commented: “It’s magnificent.”
However, not everyone was as kind.
One mean troll penned: “There’s nothing you can be proud of.”
A second claimed: “The stinge of the BO must be horrible.”
Someone else chimed in: “So being unhygienic is cool now? Weird world we live in.”
Whilst another simply put: “NO THANKS.”
