Natalia Castellar was mocked as a youngster by other children for her thick, dark eyebrows, but now the 17-year-old has shut down her haters after landing a modeling job.
“When I was younger they were all anyone would point out. I was bullied terribly because of how thick and long they were, so I wanted to shave them down,” Natalia said. However, she managed to turn a blind eye to all the hate and her new attitude gained an impressive following on social media, which earned Castellar a contract with NEXT Models, which is listed as one of the top modeling agencies in the world.

Natalia is very excited about her upcoming career
“I can’t wait to travel and work. I’m the type of person that’s content when they’re constantly doing something”
“A lot of trolls [still] leave nasty comments about my eyebrows, but I don’t give in and respond, because that’s what they want”
She looks like Frida Kahlo! Amazing. Well done to her for not caring for the haters.
what? why bully her? I think she's cute. probably a bunch of jealous cats
The recurring them that your flaws could be your greatest asset is great, but there are soooo many stories about a bullied child who became a model on bored panda. Every child gets bullied, but getting a modeling career is not the only (or maybe even the best) way to validate your worth or even your beauty.
Most every model I work with and train for the industry goes through daily bullying. Do you eat? Are you sick. You are too tall. You have no figure. The hardest thing eveyry young model has to learn is to get past all the constant hating and belittling that goes on in their daily lives and embrace the diffferences that allow them to do things and go places mundane folks will never experience.
she is drop-dead gorgeous. and anyone bullying a girl for her eyebrows well... has clearly too much time on their hands, and i'm just trying to put it nicely... blah.
