Braces and glasses! Help!!!?

[Jollyalarm963]

I've worn glasses my whole school year so far, and today I just got braces... I feel like a geek or nerd or whatever, I'm ADHD but I'm really shy at school, I feel like when I go back Tommrow from a break everyone's gonna be talking about me behind my back, here are some delatils:

•shoulder length curly/frizzy brown hair (any tips on how to loose the frizz?)
•glasses black and brown (little brown "spots")
•our school didn't allow makeup at my age
•how do I convince my grandparents (I live with them) to let me get contacts?
• every time I look in the mirror I think "oh there's ugly again"
•I sorta have a tan
•pink and teal braces, getting rubber bands
•I usually wear my hair in a braided ponytail
•I feel like any person who might like me (if anyone does) will loose interest in me
•I have VERY low self-Esteme (I know I sick at spelling lol)
•I play minecraft and I feel like if I have glasses braces and play minecraft people are gonna think of me as a computer geek
•I deleted my instagram 4 times over hate, It's really easy to effectively hate on me

Any ideas please help!!!

Your fine why do you care about what others think? It's high school find people who you are comfortable with and be you! Your beautiful

I have the same problem. Braces, glasses, acne and frizzy hair. I am also top of the class which doesn't help. High school is the hardest time of your life, and everyone (although they might not show it) has low self-esteem. Hormones and spots don't help either. Trust me though, when you leave high school, it will become a lot easier. You lose the braces, get contacts, lose the acne. In the end, you will find friends (and eventually and boyfriend/girlfriend) who really care about you. Don't stress. Be yourself and you people will learn to love you for who you are.
Hope this helps

Some advice with the braces, just deal with them. You are going to have them for a while, but if you listen to your orthodontist and follow all of their rules you will get them off faster, which will help. Don't be afraid of glasses. Glasses can be really good for your face. If you don't or can't wear makeup that is an excuse for people to look at your face, its something awesome that other people don't have to use it to your advantage. Don't be afraid of playing video games either. I love playing minecraft. IF you like other video games why not get into that? I'm a nerd, but I don't care. I love anime and I love to cosplay. It is the one and only time that I don't feel awkward or out of place. Just be comfortable with yourself. It can be hard to learn how but it is possible.

I have braces and glasses too. I got contacts and to convince your grandparents to let you get them tell them how insecure you are and that contacts will really help your self esteem. And the braces you'll get used to them. I've had mine for years and sometimes i forget they're there. But i would suggest getting one color thats not that neon... I have light blue but dont get white because that could make your teeth look yellow!! And maybe start straightening your hair to make it less frizzy and wear it down more often and part it to the side if it isn't already. And the makeup thing sucks but concealer is something you couldn't tell you're wearing and maybe try to pass with some mascara? And maybe a very subtle lip color I'm not telling you that you have to change yourself because you sound beautiful but if you aren't confident these are just my suggestions. I hope this helped
