i think cassey ho (blogilates) and her sister did this and their results were somewhat different so im a bit skeptical about these tests. also, i saw a news report a while back in which the reporter did a few different tests, kinda like what steph is doing, and one of them was COMPLETELY inaccurate. like total bullshit. wish i could remember which one it was

love that you're going to do a video for all 3 companies/tests! i've been wanting to buy one of these tests for my mom as she lost her mom during the khmer rouge at a very young age , so she knows very little about her background. i probably won't purchase until i watch all three of your videos for each one :) also, this is super off topic but giiiiiirl your skin is amazing!

You have the most interesting video ideas! Looking forward to seeing the other results to see if they match!

IMM SHOOKETH. GOOD FOR YOU GIRL!!

Love these videos! So interesting to know people’s backgrounds

Thank you for sharing, Steph! ❤️

Thanks for posting this personal video, I was looking forward to this since your Insta post. I have a similar dilemma when I did 23andme. I have never met my biological father. Some of the ancestry I got back was totally expected, some of it not as much. However, they came out with the Family Tree after I tested. Seeing that I had over a thousand “relatives” I logged into that thinking nothing of it when I got the release email. Most of course are like 5th cousins, but there was a half sister, aunt, and first cousin from my biological father’s side. It totally sucker punched me and really turned me upside down, I didn’t even have his name but suddenly I was looking at the picture of a half sister. I ended up having that difficult conversation with my mother and got more information afterwards. I haven’t decided if I’m going to contact him/them yet, as I logged out of that service so they cannot see me. Seeing as there is a little bit of a situation in your father’s side and you may find some of your father’s relatives (no guarantee) you may want to think very hard about contacting them/making a profile public in that specific part of the website. It could change your life forever. Maybe nothing is there, perhaps I’m just an extreme case. I’m not trying to tell you to do one thing or another. Please give it some time and think it through. Love your videos, please never change. All the best!

I got my Ancestrydna results one month ago. I've been so obsessed with finding out more (next is 23andme). You definely should reach out, I met so many new family members. Some helpful tools that people use are GEDmatch and DNAland. There are countless videos on YT for reference. 🙂

There’s a lot of misconceptions about what “Latin” looks like. It’s not a race, but only in America due to its history, Latin people are mixed. If you think about it. It makes sense. Native Americans, who migrated from Siberia, and Asia after the last Ice Age. Then came the Spaniards, and later the English, French, Irish, Scots, Scandinavians, Italians etc. The slavetrade that brought people over from Africs to America, mostly from the west coast of Africa, and south. It’s a melting pot. America was built on immigration, as well as slavery, and genocide. People are shocked when they see blond and blue eyed latin people, but their ancestors came from Spain, Portugal, and Italy, which øre the romance countries that make up the Latin sphere including France. People have to realize how genetics works. It’s like a lottery, and you never know what you will end up with basically. Sometimes it even skips a few generations. As a hairdresser and MUA I have seen this in form of hair color, hair texture as well as other typical traits like freckles, ginger/red hair and so on. Some kids doesn’t even look like their parentes, and you learn that they got their apperance from their grandparents. Sometimes even the theory of the dominant gene (melanin), doesn’t always work. Seen plenty of mixed people of Asian and Cacuasian blend, and manybof them look «white». You can’t even telll. I my self took a DNA test because all my life I have been told by others that I don’t look Filipino (enough), due to ignorance, and racism. I am too dark (tan), or I don’t look Chinese. I kinda knew what to expect because I know my history, and the history if my people and our islands, so in the end I proved to be 100% Filipino. No add mixture of anything. Every other Filipino I have seen taking these tests got a whole cocktail of different ethnicities. So I was kinda disappointed, even though I predicted this outcome.

Toni Sumblin Racism is still the same wherever you go. The culture behind it though can differ. I think that yeah Americans are a lot more obsessed by the concept of skin colour compared to Europeans, mainly because of their history. Europeans more than the concept of “I am white” or “I am black” are more focused on where you or your parents are from. Just because the culture behind racism differ from country to country it still doesn’t mean that one is better than the other...it’s still racism. How we look is important no matter where you go...If you are a black man in Germany you will be looked as a “not German” simply because you don’t look like one. I am not saying that you will not be accepted and have a great life there, that’s just how it is. Another important thing that no one talks about, is the concept of citizenship...there is the citizenship A and the citizenship B. Not even between Europeans we treat each other equally. Sad but true. So yeah no one is saying that there is no racism in Europe, but I completely agree with you that sometimes SOME Europeans think of the themselves too highly.

I'm so excited for these videos! I've always seen youtubers than I don't follow so these tests, but it's so cool to see my dear Stephanie do this! And I have actually heard that some people who took several tests actually get different results? Kinda crazy:p

This was really cool! Thanks for walking through the website with us!

This is really cool and it made me get one because of how surprising your results were to you!!! I've only ever had contact with a small amount of family (for reasons out of my control) and have always questioned about any culture I was missing out on

WOAHH Steph this was amazing!! So many cousins AHHHH~~~

Steph, it said that your weight is likely to be ABOUT average, not above average. You skimmed through that fast and misread it!

Yass another video and your brows 😍😍

what a treat to see you after a long day at work!! :)))

sorry if this is irrelevant but your skin and makeup looks so good!! girl you are GLOWING!! please make a makeup tutorial on this look :)

I'm actually waiting for my ancestry reports from 23andMe as well so this was a great intro to it, as I've only really seen the Buzzfeed/Try Guys videos of it and not the actual home page you get when you sign up. It'd be interesting to see what your dad's or your sister's results would be, just to compare - as like you said you got the more dominant genes, so she might display more of the recessive ones.

You should upload your 23andme data onto WeGene. It's a Chinese genetic testing website, and it gives slightly more insight into your Asian ancestry. You can also connect with relatives as well. There's an English version and a Chinese version, but the English version is more limited. I don't think you can see your various health reports on it etc.

I think it’s great you’re doing the results of all 3 tests. I feel like a lot of these tests are geared towards people of Caucasian or African decent (even evident in the genetic tests they have for illnesses or disease) and they don’t have as much of a database for the Asian population. Looking forward to seeing what the other results are for.. I think this will help me decide between ancestry or 23amdme

I’m interested to see how your dad reacts or his results after taking a test 🤔 Also, I’m curious to see if they add in a result saying 1 person from immediately family is on 23 and me, next to your 3rd, 4th, and 5th relatives

I know you're waiting on your other kits, and from what I heard, Ancestry is better...but I downloaded my 23andme kit and uploaded it to gedmatch and DNALand, and it gave me way more detail about my "broadly" categories. I'm obviously African American, but most African Americans are mixed, even our African DNA tends to be all across West Africa and other regions of the continent. I would upload your kit and find out more info. I found out I was mostly Nigerian and Cameroonian, but also part Mende, biaka pygmy, British ( just got a note from my British cousin on 23andme confirming), and even part Dardish/ Pakistani, along with a bunch of other stuff. It's crazy sis. I'm excited to know anything about my ancestry since I do not have a relationship with my father or his family, I'm the only child of my two parents, and my mother was adopted in a closed adoption.

I actually have a similar story to yours! I am 3/4 Vietnamese and 1/4 White. My dad is Vietnamese and my mom is half Vietnamese and half White, she too does not know her father at all. And my older sister definitely got more of the "mixed" gene LOL. My mom was conceived while Vietnam was under war so my grandma met my grandpa who was an American soldier. Of course "white" could mean anything so I also took the 23andme test and found out that my grandpa is most likely from Spain. I would love to get my mom to do a test but growing up without a father in such a time in need is still very sensitive to her.

Hey! I know this video is from 3 years ago, and I don’t see that you posted the other companies results. I’m curious if there were any big differences between the three sets of results. Maybe not, since you only did a video for 23 & Me. I would expect most of mine to be Northwestern Europe, and I don’t like that 23 & Me seems to lump those all together. I want one that can differentiate between the various countries.

I love this video! I want to find out about mine too!

Could the British part also come from the Hong Kong side of the family? And France and Spain are right beside each other, there is bound to be some dna-intermingling, I suppose - I'm Northern German, so very close to Denmark (actually the borders varied throughout the centuries), and I got no German but about a quarter of Scandinavian back from my dna-test

where did you get you earrings ??

I did myheritage, ancestry, 23andme, livingdna... uploaded results to familytreedna. and gedmatch.

I've notice in other videos of Filipinos taking a DNA test, when regarding UK Irish Scottish just a thought that no one has brought up prior to iberian peninsula becoming countries and when Spain and Portugal was visigoths you had Germanic people living there and the Celtic people you find in the UK came from the Iberian peninsula in ancient times.
