Is having braces at 17 a failo?

[IHATEINDIANS]

I think I'm getting them soon which I'm happy abt because my bite is totally fucked same with my teeth positioning. I'm worried these make me even more subhuman than I already am though, will they? If it's a failo is it just a minor one or is it pretty big?

Depends on how they look
It could be a halo
It also is an upside since it fixes your teeth overtime
