Recently through a post on Instagram Sameera Reddy shared a little conversation with her father on coloured or no coloured hair. Her father, “worried about people judging her,” asked the actress why she “isn’t covering her white hair,” to which Sameera Reddy said that she is not “paranoid” about her look anymore and now she takes her own “sweet time and chooses to colour if and when she feels like.”

The actress posted two pictures of herself on Tuesday and shared what she told her father about “self-love” and “acceptance.” She can be seen sporting partially white hair in the pictures, sharing which she wrote: “My dad asked me why I’m not covering my white hair. He was worried about people judging me. I answered ‘So what if they did… Did it mean I’m old? Not pretty? or not so groomed? or not so appealing?’ I told him that I’m not paranoid about it like I used to be and that freedom is liberating.”

she added: “I used to color every 2 weeks so nobody could catch that line of white. Today I take my own sweet time and choose to color if and when I feel like. He asked me why I should be the one to change the conversation? I said why not? I know I’m not alone. The shift and acceptance only begin when old thought processes are broken. When we can just let each other be. When confidence can just find its way naturally and not hidden behind a mask or cover. My dad understood. As I understood his concern as a father. Every day we learn we move forward and we find peace in small shifts. And it’s those small steps that take us to much bigger places .”

Sameera Reddy is breaking the stereotypical thinking of people that women should be well maintained. they should work on their looks or if they are having white hair that is a big concern. But by her pictures it proves that one should be happy within because the outer look should not matter so much. and if men can have the freedom of doing anything then why not the WOMEN.

With her post, she used these hashtags which shows she has happily accepted what she is and we are proud of her for standing up for this stereotypical thinking.- #happiness #acceptance #selflove #imperfectlyperfect.
