Absolutely no chance at all those are real cutting scars. Ambercrombie would hire a semi-attractive clean person and then use make up to add them on.
All the scars are nice and clear and uniform, rather than completely jagged and off angled from each other. Since we all know that people cutting themselves are entirely in a mental state to have full control over their motor functions.
Scars are in "attention" zones, aka high visible places that people could see but not at all in a location on the body that could cause any type of real damage, because clearly people who are at the point of self-destructive actions are thinking, "Well I got to make sure I don't hurt myself".
And as we all know 'suicidal' people are always so active to want to be plastered everywhere for fucking pep brands and these types are also always going on and wanting everyone to know they are suicidal. Bet her parents are super stoked to have had someone they know show them the add for their daughter with her 'suicide scars' for everyone to see. Bet that's something we'll totally see.
Fake as shit advertising. Probably a dozen more reasons it's fake to beyond this.
I will admit to knowing nothing about cutting, but from what little I do know, aren’t they too high up the arm? Almost every time I have ever heard of people cutting, it is their wrist, since there is a high chance of hitting a vein.
Not all self-cutting is a suicide attempt.
"Confidence cuts" to get used to the pain before going for the big drain.
The ones on the upper arm look really stranged positioned.
The ones on the lower arm are "okay".
In general you cannot generalize cutters, since it's just a symptom and coping mechanism for an underlying mental illness. Some cut, because they deal with emotional pain and the physical pain is a more welcome alternative. Others like to punish themselves, because they feel like they should be punished.
People also like to hide their wounds, that's why I think those locations are strange. (inner) thighs are a way more popular area as is the torso.
I suppose. I have obviously never considered anything like that, and it would largely be useless to me as a side effect of my autism is that I have an absurdly high pain tolerance (for example, I went 10 years without knowing I had a broken foot). However, I will tend to bite things when I get stressed or am anxious, and that can include biting my fingers until they bleed.
Cuts up there aren't abnormal, but they are rarely where they start. Like if someone started cutting that far up, its because they've already turned the lower arm and many other places to shreds already.
So they'd be completely believable if the lower arm had except for the two shown that look completely different than the others.
A lot of cutting is on the forearms but not near the radial artery.
