Vitiligo is a long-term condition where pale white patches develop on the skin or hair. These areas lose pigment, when the cells that produce melanin disappear. It affects around 1% of the world's population. Famous model Winnie Harlow has it, as did Michael Jackson. Experts are still not exactly sure what causes it, although some suspect it is an autoimmune disorder. Bashir Aziz from London was born with vitilgo. The salesman turned model was scouted for his unique look. He's now using Instagram to build his success. (Photo: Bashir Aziz on a shoot, Credit: Sophie Bauckham/Â鶹Éç)
