i used to be pretty (everyone used to tell me so) but now within a year i got those metal braces and now glasses. I feel I've turned into an ugly geeky looking girl. I cant get contact lenses coz my parents feel i'm too young for them. but i am scared that everyone will call me ugly betty once i get glasses next week.

No, i do not believe that one bit! I am not a conceited person by any means, and some days i feel like i am the ugliest thing to walk this earth! But, many (attractive and not) have tried to get with me so on a good day i do feel confident about myself. I'm sure you were pretty before, and the glasses won't change that. Some people look more beautiful with glasses. In the future you might want to switch to contacts, but that is completely up to you! If you are insecure about your braces, smile with your mouth closed for pictures, and always know that as soon as they come off you will have a 100 times prettier smile than before!! Being a 13 year old can be difficult, especially with changes like glasses and braces but just remember those things make you who you are and to some people the things make you unique and that's what a lot of people like in others!! Don't listen to all those negative people. You will not be any less beautiful than before you got those things!

ok just relax and repeat after me- "I AM BEAUTFUL!" no amount of metal or glass is going to detract from you beauty and i doubt that you are ugly or geeky. I recently got braces for the 2 time thank you very much and I hate them too!! From what it sounds like you are going through an awkward stage with everyone else who is your age!! But just remember, you are beautiful, and don't forget it and in a few years the braces will come off and you will be old enough to get contacts and you will be A STAR!!!

Not at all. Get a nice, trendy pair of glasses and you should be fine. I had to wear braces for five years, two of those to fix my jaw! Plus, where I went to school, it seems most everyone wore braces at one time or another. Nobody gave that a second thought where I come from.
I'm 24 now,and to tell the truth I wouldn't be caught dead wearing contacts. The thought of touching my eye is icky, and I like glasses that fit the shape of my face. Think of them as an accessory--and choose a frame that looks good on you.

It is only a temporary state. "Pretty is as pretty does," is a very old saying. Beauty comes from within, and of course, looks help.
For this brief time you are only inconvenienced. When you let the inside shine beauty is ever present. Look at the transformation of America Ferrara at the Golden Globe Awards.
"There is no excellent beauty that hath not some strangeness in the proportion." ~ Francis Bacon
"Whatever is in any way beautiful has its source of beauty in itself, and is complete in itself." ~ Marcus Aurelius

First of all, you say you "used to be pretty"; well guess what, you still are!! Glasses and braces will not change that! Own the glasses, own the braces, don't let them own you. There are way cool frames to choose from these days and braces are always "in"!! Be proud of how you look!!!

I use to feel the same. I had glasses, braces, and a scoliosis brace. It called a teenage awkward stage. We all have gone through it, but so you will be out of it. Plus, beauty comes from the inside!
