To keep on topic, I thought Nicole looked really beautiful with the color and short cut, but i thought it needed a bit more "style" - either more deconstuctive piecing to the ends, ie longer and shorter bits al la japanimation - or a more organized pixie.
But then when they showed the jeans ad of her, I could tell in her face she was missing her gorgeous hair.
Gord write ythis down because this may be the only time i agree with you. I thought it was stupid as well that they hacked Jeniphers hair, 2 feet of it and butchered Norelles pretty hair, i wanted to see her get it cut but not like a five year old cut it. Then they add a foot of hair to Amanda, and the color they gave her is just wrong!!!! :< Tara is a hipocrit since she wears long hair extensions and is a modle. As i said before i have not watched the show ever and just seen pics on the net, after what they did to these girls i never will.
Wow. We agree. 100%. Go figure.
Though I will "confess" to having watched a bit of the show last week (?) where on a photoshoot for jeans... the first thing they did was to give all the models extra hair. duh. How about doing that before the salon visit next time, huh?
I certainly don't think the salon makeovers were about enhancing the beauty of the girls. If anything, it was more about (a) testing the girls to see if they were willing to be abused [check], and (b) demonstrating the crazy sh|t they can technically do -- wild colors, chop, add, etc [check]. Basically, to find out if they "qualify" to become models. Glamourous? Heill no.
Dave.. good point but I think it was even more basic than what you have mentioned. For what ever reason it is a undeniable fact, people like to see makeovers. Morning shows do them, talk shows do them, magazines have them, shows keep coming on air solely about makeovers. I think the ANTM folks know a makeover episode is big ratings, so they do one and could care less about what the results are. Personally, I would love to see one of these girls refuse to have her hair cut. That would really show she had teh right stuff to be a top model. Think Cindy Crawford would cut her hair if she didn't want too?

You know, Hal, I had a similar thought during the makeover episode. Just beforehand, Tyra told the girls to embrace their unique physical characteristics. I thought that Jenn could have used the lesson as an opportunity to stand firm by her hair at the salon. She may have heard Tyra's words, but apparently didn't get the message. I agree with you -- having demonstrated that she had a backbone would certainly have demonstrated a mental toughness that (to some degree, at least) would have helped her in the modeling business (heck, that would help anybody in any business).
