Beautiful deaf model and 2016 National “Silver” Goldwell ColorZoom Recipient, Ayanna Michele, has revealed that  she wasn’t born deaf even though she doesn’t remember being able to hear at all.

“I wasn’t born deaf. I was born hearing; although I don’t remember being able to hear at all. I’ve been having hearing problems since I was a child. My mother just thought I was mischievous and I didn’t like to listen. Until they found out I actually couldn’t hear. I ended up wearing a hearing aid in my left ear & remained completely deaf in my right ear. Ever since I was 6 years old.

Regardless of my disability I’ve always excelled in school & amongst my peers. My doctors use to tell me… one day you’re gonna go completely deaf. I am in my 20’s now & I actually went completely deaf this year (2017). My doctor gave me an option; I could choose to go through a long process of surgery; which would give me an attempt to at least have a percentage of hearing or remain completely deaf. –
No, no need.
I’m gonna do my thing… the world will adjust OR not.”
