Nigerian actress Mary Njoku has advised young women to prioritize self-development over cosmetic procedures.
While noting that beauty is no longer uncommon, the actress pointed out that people can now enhance their looks.
In an Instagram post on Friday, Njoku emphasized the need for women to prioritize investing in their brains over Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) and other surgeries.
Speaking further, she described body enhancement without brain or skills growth as a disaster.
“But here’s the thing: Beauty isn’t rare anymore. It is not a big deal to be beautiful. Anyone can alter their look with money. What will truly make you stand out is your mind. Develop your brain, invest in your skills, and build your knowledge.
“While you can buy a new body, you can’t buy a new brain. BBL is basically buy one, get one free. You cannot alter your brain, but you can develop it.
“So while you are busy getting a nose job and buying new boobs, make sure you set aside some budget for personal growth. Because a BBL without a brain? That is a disaster waiting to happen. SUBSTANCE over SURFACE.”
