A sibling concept blog showcasing our passion for Travel, Fashion, Lifestyle, Beauty and Diversity.
Our blog is called BEING HER, which is a play on our names Hermon and Heroda but more importantly the belief that being yourself is the most powerful beauty product available!
We happen to be Deaf, we say happen, because we don’t see it as a disability as, others do. We see it as an advantage! With our hearing diminished our other senses become heightened, therefore our touch, taste and vision can appreciate different aspects maybe a hearing person wouldn’t…
We both suffered our loss of hearing under strange circumstances. We were seven years old, playing outside (in our hometown Eritrea) one moment we could hear, the next we couldn’t. We refuse to allow being Deaf to define or hold us back.
Our blog gives us the opportunity to widen our perspective. The more you see, the less you hate. Prejudice is a big part of the human condition and the more cultures you experience the more you realise we are not that different! Be brave, be courageous and new experiences will alter your life forever.
Hermon is a professional actress and Heroda featured in her first commercial (Smirnoff).
“Being Deaf may be difficult, but being scared is the real barrier”
Hope you enjoy our journey of who we are through what we’re wearing and what we inspired.
