Thought of you ladies while I'm sitting here watching America's Next top Model, they are doing the makeover episode, and for the most part they are leaving a lot of their hair long! Some of the ones with somewhat long hair got super long extensions, and the one with naturally curly hair was left curly! Definitely looks like long hair is making a comeback, even if it is fake hair.

I often liked the shorter hair transformations. I love that it's not all short this season!

3 out of the 3 friends in my class at college have extensions so this comes as no big surprise to me.

However it is still awesome :D

I haaated when they used to shave the heads of girls with long hair just to make an example of them or to make them prove how far they are willing to go to be models. It made me so sad. I'd rather buy clothes I see on a long-haired model way more than on a short-haired one :/

I used to cringe everytime they shaved a girl's head to make her look more "high-fashion." What isn't high-fashion about gorgeous, long, flowy hair?!

Awesome! I haven't seen it yet, but I always :rolleyes: when they cut long hair and give extensions to the short-haired girls. How nice that they left the curls alone, too. I mean, I know that drastic transformations are more shocking and dramatic, but there's a point where I just think "what were they thinking?"

Ooooh! I can't wait to see the episode. I watch it online. I'm glad there's more long hair...they always do short haircuts :( I think long hair is better for pictures....you can do so much to it/with it! I've done photoshoots with friends where the main thing was long hair and we worked around it. It's fun! :)

I can't believe how many of them complained. Geesh. the first one reaaally annoys me..Alexandria? I think her name is. But, hey, there ALWAYS has to be at least one or two who always complain.

But I definitely am loving the long hair.

Which season is it (wanna find it online.)
I agree with how horrid it was to shave some girls long hair off to exploit how desperate they are to be this year's winner. "It'll grow back" Well yeah, but that's 2-3 years of growth.... When will Tyra Banks shave her own hair, huh?

Lots of long hair this cycle! Glad they left Jaclyn's alone, her hair is lovely.

Holly's weave was a hot mess. Sheesh, no wonder the salon owner was peeved. That weave "specialist" had no idea how to work with Holly's thin blonde hair, for sure. I hope when they took it out they could fix the damage done to her real hair enough that she was presentable. I thought her picture was one of the best at the shoot, for sure.

Alexandria needs to shut it. She has modeling experience, sure, but she's also a beotch and a diva. You just do not treat the makeup/hair people like that, and expect to get away with it. I thought her hair looked fine, especially considering it's ANTM, the home of TyTy's Horrific Makeovers.

I suppose it's the most resent episode in the most resent season. At least, that's what I'm downloading right now :D

edit: I think, I mean recent :D

mollys weave was awful!

I love when they give them super short cuts, most of them look amazing. They know what they're doing when picking the hair based on the girls features. And if my hair was my job as a model I'd be willing to do anything, your body is the canvas. I always got really annoyed when the girls cried when getting their hair cut but I am a little more sympathetic now as I found myself crying the other day when I had to cut almost all my 'length' off again due to splits :P

I agree on that one, but if you put allot of work into it, it can look nice. :p

Alexandria definitely annoys me too, I can't stand people who think they're better than everyone else. In that same vein, I'm not a big fan of Monique either.

I agree that they do choose super short hair on people who can pull it off, and long hair on people who will look good with long hair. Molly's weave was AWFUL, I felt so bad for her, those things take FOREVER so for them to mess it up so bad must have sucked.

I never actually watched the Next Top Model shows. What is the big fun of it? *confused* :confused: A lot of pretty girls who just get prettier. I would think of it as a challenge if they could turn a normal looking girl into a supermodel. ;) But yay! for long hair :cheese:

I love when they cut off that girls long brown hair into a black bob with straight bangs. It looked amazing on her. I think Brittany is her name.

Well yeah but they signed up knowing it is part of the experience. I hate when they complain!

I don't really care when they cute their hair; they are models, they need to have trendy cuts. But I was pretty happy that they left the curly haired girl pretty much the same! I am so jealous of her hair. Its lovely.

I think Tyra finally realized that long hair is much more versatile for modeling than short hair--half the time, they'd cut a girl's hair and then give them long hair for photo shoots.

I was appauled by that so called weave expert!! I mean, why get a woman who has obviously only dealt with african american hair to do blond caucasian hair?? I remember my former hair dresser was jamacian and she went to a special school to learn how to work with african american hair because it is SO different to any other hair. I don't blame Molly for hating it and it looked painful--like they were gouging her scalp every time they sewed it in. I'm eager to see the new weave, though I liked Molly's hair straight. I want Molly to win and I want Alexandria to have her ego served to her.

I thought her long hair was a wig? You can see the wig around her hairline: http://kristenlock.com/2008/12/14/why-do-lace-fron-wigs-cost-so-much/

I don't keep up with celebrities though, so I'm not sure how recent that picture is.

Last I knew she had long hair but it was pretty curly so she often used a straight wig. I think she uses wigs for fun kind of. lol But I don't know for sure...

Well, what an ending--to give the final two makeovers before the final judging! I wonder which girl needed to be seen by whom! I liked Brittani's hair better in the bob, but thought Molly's new hair style was a huge improvement how it flattered her face.

Well I'm finding long hair to be very trendy these days. I'm in a big North American city that was famous for it's funky short dos and funky hair dyes. You used to see some AMAZING short hair cuts. This season I'm seeing so many women with BSL and longer hair, which was so unusual. I'm also seeing a lot of (nasty) extensions too. I also noticed that the last few magazines I got had long-haired models on the cover.

So I do believe long hair is the trend this season.

I kinda liked it when they cut the long haired girls super short, because in most of the photo shoots afterwards they would give them hair pieces and extensions. In a way I always figured they were saving the real long hair from getting too damaged with all the styling that goes into hair that would eventually have to be chopped anyway to shorter lengths. So they thought ahead, chopped the hair and put most styling damage on the fake extensions.

At least that's how I always seen it :)

I must admit though, I'm not a fan of extensions.

The sad thing is I know long hair will eventually go out of style. It always does...and always comes back. I like my hair long, no matter how popular.

I didn't like Molly's hair at all :( I did like Brittney's though.

If I ever went on that show and told me they were going to cut my hair, I would be the girl that left. After all I've been through to grow it out and already having short hait, I think I'd be better off in the industry with longer hair!

You didn't like it long and straight (after being through two bad weaves) or you didn't like what they did at the final judging, or you didn't like it any way she had it?

I didn't like the way they cut it in the final judging. I liked it much better long. I thought that she, as a model, looked more like a model with longer hair. It may have been the way it was styled though. The long hair was just nice and more versatile! I thought it elongated her, and the short hair, well, shortened her somehow.

I really do roll my eyes when they cry and complain about the makeovers. Don't sign up for a show where you know dramatic haircuts are part of the experience.

I wasn't a fan of Molly's sort of bowl cut, but I thought Brittany's hair looked great! I'm so glad she won :D
