Getting a nose job has become a pretty standard procedure. In the early 00s getting plastic surgery, especially a nose job was a talked about topic. Now getting surgery to make a nose smaller is pretty standard.

There is a downside to the plastic surgery becoming normalized, having a big nose is seen as not attractive. Thanks to contouring, angles and filters you can easily hide a large nose, but there is still a stigma attached to having a big nose.

Freelance journalist Radhika Sanghani is trying to dispell the stigma around having a big nose with the hashtag #SideProfileSelfie. “I’ve hated my nose for ages because I’ve always compared it to white beauty standards and the Hollywood look,” Sanghani told Glamour.

“But in recent years I’ve started to ditch that idea and actually love my nose for what it is. It’s been so freeing and wonderful that now I really want to inspire other women to get to a similar place.”

She kicked off her campaign with a simple tweet and an article in Grazia explaining the campaign. “I grew up thinking that you can’t be beautiful unless you have a snub little ski-slope of a nose, like Kate Middleton or Mila Kunis – and I know other women have too,” Sanghani wrote. “There just aren’t enough larger-nosed ladies with stereotypically ‘hot’ roles in movies or ad campaigns to make us think an aquiline profile can be pretty.”

Sanghani wrote that acne prone skin, cellulite and stretch marks have all broken out of their stigmas and are now seen as normal and beautiful, but having a big nose hasn’t received it’s social media justice yet.

Her #SideProfileSelfie will help empower big nose woman and show that having a big nose is beautiful.

Since her tweet, many women have responded sharing their own profile selfie.

“My theory is beauty standards have lauded small noses over big ones because they fit in with the idea of women being delicate, dainty and not taking up space,” Shanghani wrote. “But we’re not. We’re bold, strong, and we can take up as much space as we want, even with our bodies.”
