Kush Tracey bleached her body top to bottom but her stubborn black color still came back.
The rapper-turned-media personality recently opened up about her bleaching addiction which she said happened in her early 20s.
In a social media post seen by Kenyareports.com, Kush Tracey confessed that she suffered from ‘bleaching addiction’ when she was in her 20s.
The ‘Huwezi Nidandia’ hit maker said that during her early to mid-20s she experienced a profound struggle with skin bleaching.
She shared photos of her past self, with visibly lighter skin, to emphasize her journey.
Kush admitted that at that time, she was deeply lost, broken, confused, and lacked a sense of identity.
“In my early-mid 20s I was as lost as they comeš¤£ yes that 2nd pic is still me,skin bleached,skinnier,looking like Iām living my best lifeš«£but the reality is I was broken,lost,confused & I definitely lacked an identityš
“I thought being light skin made me āmore beautifulā but thatās a lie from the pit of hellš® (no offense to the natural light skins outchea yāall are as gorgeous queensā¤ļø)
“Why Iām I sharing this today,so many women dm me asking how I stopped bleaching & got my natural color back, the reality is I destroyed some parts of my skin then & itās been a journey of patience & healing to get to where I unconditionally love my skin colour,embrace my unbalanced melanin all the dark parts & light parts equally & Iām no longer ashamed of my story.
“I never thought skin bleaching addiction was an actual thing until I did a lot of research to understand why it was a struggle for me to just stop doing something that was actually causing harm to my body & could potentially have severe consequences in the long run (story for another dayš¤)
“Anyway I had āfriendsā who āpreferredā me ālighterā & thought thatās when I was beautifulš¤£ (well I dropped them tukisonga) but the more Iāve worked on my mindset & thank God for the Bible Iāve embraced the truth of who God says I am,I donāt need to change my skin colour for nobody to validate me & put me in a ābeauty categoryā I canāt type everything here; but to all my gorgeous beautiful melanin queens,yāall are a dimeš you donāt need to get a few shades light to look beautiful,yāall are beautiful just the way you are.
