Nicole on ANTM

Locks of Love is a silly charity. It would be better to do a sponsered headshave for something better.

I mean, you can buy a wig anyway, they're not THAT expensive; and quite often the caner patients hair will grow back before yours does, if it was down to your waist.

I wouldn't cut my hair short because it looks horrible on me, but if I was a girl with a feminine face(maybe some day ;) ) I probably would grow it down to my waste them get it all chopped off for charity; a real chairty.
I'd probably bleach/dye it all a beautiful golden blonde colour just to enhance the effect :)

Not to get into the whole Locks of Love debate, BUT from what I have seen from companies who oversee charities, the fact is that Locks of Love do not use all the hair sent to them. They sell what they do not use to wig makers. However, it is also my understanding that they use the proceeds from hair sales to run the company, and no one is getting rich off of people's good intentions.

I believe them to be a legitamate charity, but I too am tired of using the charity as an excuse to cut hair.

I'm sick of women with beautiful hair getting conned into parting with gorgeous tresses that took them many years to achieve. As an aside, does anyone think that Jennipher's ordinary cut will drop more jaws than her extraordiary locks would have? The answer is obvious. This woman wants to be a model, and of course she's very pretty, but that one feature which set her apart has now been destroyed. I think this show couldn't care less about the women behind the beauty. Just my thoughts, Bob

I liked Amanda's hair... I thought it was very pretty.

Go to www.upn.com, and follow the links to the show.

I didn't see the "after" pic of Jennipher, but it's impossible to imagine any shoulder length chop looking even a fraction as fantastic. If she wanted "practical", she had several years to opt for it. I think stylists are positively misogynistic when it comes to feminine looking women. For one to say it looks fantastic, then hack it all off, is nuts! Such a pity! Bob

I tried commenting on this show the day after it aired, but I guess my comment didn't stick.

At the risk of piling on, this has got to be one of the most pointless, stupid shows I've ever seen. They cut a couple feet off Jennipher's beautiful mane, then add a foot or so to the blonde. They change the color of the one model to Lucille Ball red? All for the sake of what?

I'll never look at Tyra Banks the same way. She's no super model in my book, but she is a super b**** (I added the asterisks myself, thank you).

I could only take 17 minutes of the show. I guess when I saw fully grown women trying to apply makeup in a packed limo riding over potholed streets, I thought, why am I wasting my time?

Hoodwinked, Bamboozled, Shammed, Cheated, and Hornswaggled.

These are the feelings that ran through my mind after watching ANTM last night.

Are those mooks serious? Not one single shot or even mention about the change in Nicole's length. They talked about that one girl (Jennipher) "getting it all cut off" ad nauseum, and correct me if I'm wrong, but it was still well past her shoulders.

A girl gets a freakin' pixie and all they can talk about is the color (which wasn't that drastic of a change anyhow)?

That show's a joke. I'll never watch it again. Unless it's to watch Nicole.

BTW, Nicole was flat out smokin' after her "not worth mentioning" haircut. All the other girls can suck an egg as far as I'm concerned.

Even though the judges say their aren't no models with long hair why don't they look at anna kournikova. I would say she's a pretty popular model, I just think those judges love short hair
It's real sad what they did to jennipher.

Rod commented: "Being a model isn't about being pretty. It's about giving them the look they want."

I personally appreciate the beauty of women much more than the notion of creating different looks through fashion. It's no wonder I don't care to know who today's "top models" are.

I hereby award that man the Pygmalion of the Year award.

It rarely if ever makes a woman look worse.

How ironic she says this, with a large photograph of her with waist-length hair, in the background of the camera shot. It's seems she's being hypocritical.

All of the girls on the show are getting exposure that they never wouuld have gotten otherwise.
The show is purely entertainment has nothing to do with anything closly real life. The fact is if Jen refuses to get her hair cut I don"t think it will hurt her getting work as a model. It all depends if she is good or not and if someone really takes a liking to her. Look at that guy Hung the singer that has made alot of money being a loser.
Bottom line is that they all volunteered, in fact beat many other contestants out to get a spot. Im sure they all realize that would have to change their looks.
If all the "drama" of haircuts and other changes were not put into the show how could it go more than one night. Essentially it would be beauty contest.
Lets face it what to heck does a model have to do but put clothes on and walk.
IMO she Jen's hair looks great and it would make her stand out as a model.
Just my 2 cents
