A Texas mom is inspiring women to embrace their stretch marks by launching the empowering Instagram hashtag #TigerStripesOnATuesday.
Talmesha Jones, from San Antonio, regularly shares stunning pictures of her post-baby body
but explains she hasn’t always had the confidence to do so.
After the
birth of her now 5-year-old son, Chase, the 27-year-old says she felt
very self-conscious about her stretch marks.
Her
self-esteem hit new lows after she received abuse online over how she
looked, admitting that she would refuse to even look at herself in the
mirror.
But now the part-time model is embracing her “tiger stripes” and wants others to do the same.
It
started with a photographer friend who convinced her to take part in a
photo shoot for the first time since giving birth. Despite her fears,
Jones agreed, deciding enough was enough.
