#MustWatch: This Burn Survivor Opens About Bullies Saying Her a Monster!

After surviving a burn from the hot oil, she shares what it means to be beautiful.

She’s a 20-year-old makeup artist from Nigeria who now lives in Maryland. When Nchom was 9, she had an accident with frying oil at her family’s store and was left with severe burns.
“Life after the accident wasn’t what I thought it would be” Nchom said. “I was stared at by kids and older people whenever I stepped out. I felt like a living statue that people came to see. It pushed me to be rude towards anyone who stared at me. I cursed people out and cried on many occasions.”
