picture of Dancehall artist Alkaline before he bleached his skin

[Kalik]

I just read that this clown tatted his eyeballs?

He took the black contacts out already. It was a way to gain promotion....

His early videos on youtube after high school he was dark. He admitted to bleaching.

His earlier tunes were better to me anyway. Dude is pure sex talk now.

This shyt sad

My mom also bleaches her skin, she has been doing it since like 1998. She doesn't use the strong stuff, so it doesn't look bad.
She went from being really brown, to being my completion smh.

Me and her stay having arguments about it when ever I see her. shyt pisses me off.

Well this thread got me curious...

Apparently when you stop bleaching you go back to your original color

I Just Found Out When You Stop Bleaching, You Go Back To Your Original Colour! - Fashion - Nigeria

seen a cousin use this and she went back to being brown when she stopped

lightening is something different tho

Don't make sense why jamaicans bleach their skin here are no(hyperbole) whites to "appease" in Jamaica. The standard of beauty is African.

This, but lets not forget that the eurocentric standard of beauty have become globalized, but men caring that much to bleach their skin is just feminine. You would think you would see more bleaching in America but

The standard of beauty is whatever the most influential culture dictates it is.

I hate to say it, but young Jamaicans are taking a lot of cues from us.

They see how we elevate our lighter skinned folks up over our folks that have more traditional African features.

So maybe it isn't white folks they're trying to appease.

Maybe it's the more influential blacks in America.
