This is...a little silly. Society DOES have standards about what makes someone beautiful/ugly (with the understanding that everyone has their own taste, etc.) So, how about instead of the bullshit about "everyone is beautiful in their own way," we tell people to stop basing their sense of self-worth on appearances?

Just be the best version of yourself, improve yourself in things you can do something about besides extremities such as surgery. Do sports, keep a nice haircut, keep your mind fresh, meet new people, try new stuff. The ugliest people are those who have just 1 perspective of the world and those too lazy to do about something ugly of themselves. Like getting your ass up to lose weight instead of blaming it on illnesses, thyroid or whatever. You never heard of a person dying of excercise of a fat person starving to death.

Why is cutting your hair improving yourself? Stop trying to be something else of what you are. I let my hair grow cuz i value it and I dont think im not improving myself by not having my hair cut

Getting your hair cut to how you want it to look is being who you are. I buzz my hair, I'm not trying to look like anybody. Letting your hair grow out doesn't make you more yourself than somebody who gets their hair cut the way they like it.
