All humans have worth, regardless of their appearance. The same goes for Supatra ‘Natty’ Sasuphan, from Bangkok.!!
She suffers from so-called “werewolf disease.”
Luckily, “Natty” has always been surrounded by friends who love her for who she is.
“I don’t feel any different to anyone else, and I’ve got lots of friends at school,” Supatra said when she was recognised by the Guiness Book of World Records as the hairiest teenager in the world in 2010.
Now the 19-year-old “Natty” has shaved off all of her thick facial hair after meeting the love of her life. Her message for everyone about loving yourself for who you are is definitely worth sharing!
An unusual condition causes Supatra ‘Natty’ Sasuphan from Thailand to have thick hair all over her body. In 2010, she received the title of ‘hairiest teen in the world’, when pictures of her were noticed by The Guiness Book of World Records.

She said at the time: “Being hairy makes me special.”
Natty suffers from the rare – and untreatable – disease Ambras Syndrome, reports The Daily Mail.
The girl is just one of 50 known cases of Ambras Syndrome. The disease is caused by an incorrect chromosome and has been documented since the Middle Ages. Before people understood the disease, sufferers were called ‘werewolves’.
Supatra has thick hair that grows all over her face, ears, arms, legs and back. She’s tried laser surgery, but it failed to put a stop to the hair growth.
But while most people affected by the diease hide away, Supatra is a confident girl with lots of friends.
Natty is an eternal optimist and a strong girl who’s full of love, despite suffering from a tough illness.
She’s proud of who she is and wants to be treated the same way as everyone else.
Everyone deserves to be loved and to find their perfect partner. Like and share this to help us wish Supatra all the luck in the world!
