Still pondering how I'm going to come up with extra cash
Sighs daydreaming one day
Sitting here thinking....
I remember in high school I had a nice shape but I had a stomach and no ass lol I felt like I was blessed with a shape but I must have missed out when god was passing out butts to everyone in my family lol (joke) . Before even knowing about brazilian butt lift surgery I always wanted one. I use to grab my gut and say "damn I wish I could move all this back there (to my behind).But anyway, I was discussing bbl with my best friend and I told her that my goal is to seriously get one done. Her reply "...oh, cool I'm happy with what glad gave me, I'm not altering what he gave me" but yet she has tattoos, dyed hair and piercings lol *eye roll* she is #teamnoass like me she's stated in the pass when we talked about plastic surgery that she would get a tummy tuck if she had the money but my point is
Why is it that of all the plastic surgeries, bbl is looked "down" on? Like people are more open to the idea of breast implants and tummy tucks, lipo but when you talk about bbl then you're vain. A lot of women seems shameful to admit they've had a bbl... Many celebs will admit they've had their breast done or teeth but will deny like crazy if they had their ass done.
Regardless of what you get done it's really none of people's business.
But Eff that I won't be shameful but it's damn sure not nobody's business unless I make it theirs.

Financing/Paying for your plastic surgery options
1. Health care or medical credit cards
Medical credit cards are the latest wrinkle in borrowing for beauty, according to a July 16, 2011, article in the Wall Street Journal. Business is booming for the cards, which only cover medical expenses and are often offered as a financing option to cosmetic surgery patients.
Pros: Health care credit cards often come with attractive 0% promotions, and some can have reasonable interest rates and payment plans. Since they are limited to medical expenses, they can lend "a sense of control if you tend to overspend" on regular credit cards, says Billy DeFrance, an El Paso, Texas, certified financial planner.
Cons: There has been a spate of predatory lending allegations against health care card lenders, as well as lawsuits against medical providers who signed unknowing patients up for the cards. Sometimes the cards were marketed as having no interest, or the interest was applied retroactively to the entire balance rather than the remaining balance if a payment was missed or not paid off during the 0% introductory period. Also, medical providers may have received commissions from the card issuers for new cardholders or charged procedures to a patient's card before they were performed. And if you miss a payment, the default APR can rise to 30% in some cases.
Advice: Research the card and read the fine print. Do not pay for multiple procedures upfront -- such as a series of Botox injections -- but insist on paying as you go. "A surgeon's job is not to determine whether a patient can afford the procedures, but rather to communicate whether the procedures can achieve the patient's goals," says Dr. Ariel Rad, director of aesthetic plastic surgery at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine in Baltimore. "Patients should to take a step back after the consultation and ask: 'What procedures do I really want or need?' and 'What amount can I really afford?'"
2 . Regular credit cards
You can use an existing low-APR credit card or apply for a new card with a 0% introductory period to pay for the procedure(s).
Pros: Assuming the card has a reasonable interest rate, this can be an affordable way to pay for the surgery while you maintain or even build your credit. Plus, you can rack up cash back if the card offers it.
Cons: A large purchase such as cosmetic surgery can tie up your credit line and reduce your credit utilization ratio (which may lower your credit score) while you pay it off. If you can't afford to pay it off promptly, you may need a second facelift before you've paid off the first.
Advice: Don't pay more than 10% interest, Kautzmann says. Don't add other purchases to the balance. Pay the balance off before the introductory rate expires, and don't charge more than 30% of your available credit.
3. Bank loan
Another option: A personal loan from your local bank or credit union.
Pros: While the interest rates of an unsecured loan from a financial institution run close to those on credit cards (depending on your creditworthiness and ability to qualify, of course), bank loans have fixed interest rates and a fixed amount of time in which to repay. Plus, if you've never taken out a personal loan before, it can boost your credit rating (by showing a variety of types of loans you've repaid) -- provided you make the payments on time until the repayment term is complete. And, unlike a credit card, you can't add more to the balance.
Cons: Unsecured loan interest rates can add quite a bit to the final cost (in interest charges) of your elective procedure. As of July 19, 2011, rates vary from 5.42% to a high of 23.37%, with an average of 11.43% (see today's personal loan rates).
Advice: For a lower interest rate, you may want to ask about a secured loan (where you offer up collateral against the loan, such as a car or house), although if you end up being unable to make the payments, you risk losing that property.
