Example: I tossed my beautiful hair and it magically formed into the mythical messy bun. I was too perfect, ew.

Why does the MC hate herself even though she's practically perfect in every way?! I think you lot think this is a good way to add depth to your character, or try to make her less of a Mary Sue.

WELL, HAVE I GOT NEWS FOR YOU, AUTHOR OF MARY SUE!

It doesn't work. It really doesn't. In fact, it has pretty much the opposite effect.

If you must have your MC hate herself, please give her a legitimate reason. Otherwise she's some sort of preppy goff - i.e. something that shouldn't exist.
