Im sad to say that there are some within my friendship circle who still do fan-girl. Time to phase them out for their appalling lack of judgment!I adored her. I fan-girled. And I never fan-girl

Yeah, I mean if you can't see it at this point, there's little hope for youIm sad to say that there are some within my friendship circle who still do fan-girl. Time to phase them out for their appalling lack of judgment!
Yes she was indie looking, and (I've said before) had a sort of Clare Grogan in Gregory's Girl kind of style. I actually found her relatable in the world of beautyShe had that quirky, indie sort of look back then. Now she has undifferentiated influencer face
It wasn’t so much her looks as her relatability, as Jelly says. And the community she created. I’d never been on a forum before. Her Guardian columns were genuinely different to any beauty writing I’d seen before, they felt like someone sharing their tips and insight rather than regurgitating press releases.She had that quirky, indie sort of look back then.

Very much this. Total disconnect. Although I worry that I would have excused her twitter bullying... I genuinely don’t know. I was less aware then.Plus, and this is a huge caveat, I was not on twitter. I can't ever believe I would have admired her seeing her twitter presence back then.
She doesn't hate them as much as she hates the fact that she needs them.I just don't get it. She acts like she hates her followers/fans the way she speaks to them on IG and Twitter
100% thisThe hair comment really bugged me. "Nope" duck right off Sali, if you can't be nice just be quiet. She's depending on these "fans" to keep her in business and yet she lacks any ounce of respect or even self awareness to treat them with anything other than utterly disdain. God I can't stand her.

So edgy, so fiestyShe probably thinks it comes across as Cool Girl nonchalance .
Oddly most people back down and apologise. It's horrible to witnessHorrible witch!
ETA: just came from a poke at insta - I’d be furious/gutted if she replied to me like that and I was still a fan!
I know it’s dreadful, I just never get used to them feeling like they have to grovel as if they’ve missed something and said something wrong or bad?!Oddly most people back down and apologise. It's horrible to witness
Brands see the engagement. So open in reels and presumably that racks up more #engagement. Also reels go to top of suggestions on search page stm it appears.What I don't get is that why brands are looking at how she replies to commenters and still think "yeah I want to pay her to promote our product".
Side note, someone on Twitter recently posted something like "if writing a work email you should sign it off with cheers and your name and nothing else"
Same! If I ever needed a new product I would search 'moisturiser Sali Hughes' and look at her recommendations. I can't believe it now! I wouldn't trust her recommendations now, more like if she advertises something it puts me off.Glad I'm not the only one! I totally worshipped her. She influenced many of my purchasing decisions.
2012 was all about loitering in Superdrug trying to get enough coverage to Google ‘sali + concealer’. 2021 is... not.Same!

The Streisand effect at work.I wonder what, if anything, I'd be thinking about SH these days if her attack on Tattle hadn't brought me here and led me to pay her much more attention than previously. I wonder whether I'd have just drifted away - I certainly would have lost interest in her Guardian column once readers' comments were disabled, and there's nothing about her IG content that attracts me.
