This girl's gonna get her hair cut into a pixie (just a hunch).

Mark my words.

http://www.upn.com/shows/top_model3/models/bio/nicole.shtml - http://www.upn.com/shows/top_model3/models/bio/nicole.shtml

Probably around episode 2 or 3.

And when are we gonna get some re-runs of Cycle 2 so I can see Catie Anderson get a pixie? I'm guessin' I'm gonna have to wait until next summer/spring.

If I'm right, you all gotta give some props. Or at least call me "master of the obvious".

And if you ask "What does this have to do with celebrity hair?".

Face facts. Not talent anybodys have become celebrities, courtesy of reality TV.

And why not one of the others with longer hair? To me it would be a sad loss if any of them had to go that short. But wouldn't you get more to watch if you had one with long hair go really short? Murry and all the other talk shows have big rates I belive when they chop 1 to 3 feet of hair. So why not this show do the same?!% Ah ``d ba ,%$ bp $($ b ).,%$)-!,) ! % 0b` %$

It's quite common for agents to change models' hair when they sign them and the show reflects that with their makeover episode. The idea is enhance the model's beauty and make her stand out more. It appears all the white girls have longer hair.

In the first season, they gave the already short haired Leah a pixie. Last year, they cut the long haired Yoanna into a faux hawk and the long haired Catie into a pixie. Both of them looked good in their new haircuts and stood out more. Catie didn't like the cut. Yoanna embraced it. Yoanna won. Since this is a modeling competition, her look contributed to that. I'm sure the contestants here will remember that.

Catie's reaction made for compelling TV, something the producers have to like. When they brought her back for the where are they now show, Catie was happy with her short hair.

I'd guess there will be one or two dramatic haircuts.

Keep the knives away from Gord and the long hair lovers. Jennipher has hair down to her waist. From the ANTM website:

http://www.upn.com/shows/top_model3/show/ep01/index3.shtml - http://www.upn.com/shows/top_model3/show/ep01/index3.shtml

ther memorable moments in this opening round include when Jennipher from Pocatello, Idaho, who has unusually long hair, breaks down crying when she tells the judges how badly she wants to get out of Idaho.

I'm sure the long hair lovers would argue with the term "unusually long hair."

While hair that long is beautiful, models rarely have hair longer than a few inches past their shoulders. Hair that long is difficult for stylists on the runways to work with. If the designer wants hair that long, they add extensions.

While they may take a model very short, don't count on it being Jennipher. She's 5'10" and they may just cut her hair to her shoulders. That would be dramatic. I'd guess a shorter girl would go very short.

Regarding Jennipher's long hair...the judges summed it up best when they said this...

1st judge---long and beautiful, but not practical

And personally, I think the 2nd judge is a genius. He said...

2nd judge--the Crystal Gayle look is NOT in fashion!

What a saint! That man deserves an award. lol

And in the deliberation process, Tyra Banks said...

"she's one of those girls that thinks because my hair is long it makes me pretty"

The world is full of 'em.

And next weeks preview shows the stylist telling jennipher "i'm gonna cut it all off" as he removes two feet on the spot.

My two cents.

It shouldn't really surprise anyone though. This season will probably follow in the same style as the previous two. If it does, that means there will probably be about 3-4 good makeovers. One long haired cutting cut much shorter, which obviously is Jennipher. One shorter haired girl getting a really short cut, may be Nicole, or possible someone else. Then there is a color makeover. Amanda goes platinum blonde. Then as with Yoanna last year there may be another "wild card" makeover. Everyone will get makeovers but probably not "major" ones. UPN is not stupid, they know it's a ratings game. Part of the reasons behind this episode & the "more extreme" makeovers, besides possible enhansment for the sake of modeling, is to create buzz & acheive higher ratings.
One thing for sure Magdalena & Leah, will not be losing any of their hair. They have alreay been eliminated.

It is disgusting what happens to Jennipher. Her hair looks like it is about 4 inches past her waist and they want to cut her hair off? I wish she had told them to kiss off. She is beautiful and that very long hair is beautiful. I think those fools were just jealous of her hair,so they hacked it off. Bunch of jerks!

I dont think they were mean look at most if not all top models and there hair are not much longer than a little past there shoulders and if they want it longer they add extensions because long hair is really difficult to style.

You sound like 12 year olds. This girl is on "America's Next Top Model." If Jennipher was as in love with her long hair as you are with it, she wouldn't want to be a model or be on the show. I don't understand why people here feel more of an ownership of Jennipher's hair than she has. You act like you own her.

Being a model means you do what you're told to do when you're told to do it. Getting work means that companies like Revlon or designers or photographers tell you what they want. Modeling isn't about the model. It's about the look these people want. If Jennipher wants to be a model and get work, she'll have to have shorter hair. And she'll have to change her hair often. Or she'll get stale. These people want fresh looks. Being a model isn't about being pretty. It's about giving them the look they want.

She can tell them off, but if she does she'll never make a living as a model. If she's attached to her hair, she should be a stockbroker, a teacher, or some other job where she has control over her look. You don't have that if you're a model.

I remember when Paulina Porzkova had hair down to her waist and nobody made her cut her hair. Models can have long hair and Jennipher should have only had to gotten a minor trim,if they felt she had to do something with her hair. Personally,I wouldn't have touched her beautiful hair.

Her hair is still beautiful....it'll be a great, still long, but shorter style....You people act like they cut her arm off...it's hair, it'll grow back.

Still, with that being said...I can only think....score one for the good guys. lol

It really will be sad if the cut her hair. It is gorgeous, and they could do so many awesome and very different styles with it so long. They could even put a shorter wig on if they wanted it shorter.
I didn't know that short haired people were "the good guys".

The information in this link must be a missprint. They say this longhaired beauty is a model, which, as we have discovered from the TV show about models, is not possible, right?

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

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.

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.

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. $ Aa da qpa $ 2,`` ($0`" 4 (!! $- !$! $ bb %

Oh dear - looking at the makeovers I can't see many normal women wanting to put themselves in the hand of the professionals on this show.

Following the transformations - nost of the contestants look worse IMHO

Amanda - now looks totally washed out
Ann - looks like a home colouring job that failed to cover all the grey
Jennipher - another whose new colour does nothing for her. Also they should have either left the length alone or taken all three feet off - but not two as she now looks plainly ordinary rather than special as she did before.
Nicola - love the colour but the picture of the cut is awful, hoefully it looks better than this.
Norelle (sic) - she could have achieved a very similar botch job with a pair of scissors at home and had a go herself.

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?

For the most part Gord, right you are...
Must be one of the most pitiful shows on TV right now! As for the looks, I can understand trying to give the model's a distinctive look, and Jennipher's hair needed to be shaped up, but they cut too much. On one hand, top models need to be versitile, but on the other hand they need a distinctive "look". Almost all of the attempts to give the models a "look" failed miserably, especially Jennipher. I would have trimmed 6 to 8 inches, and subtly highlighted her hair. As it is now, she is just another pretty face, nothing special. What a useless 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

They told Jennipher that her hair was going to help a child with cancer. I hope that some day a John Stossel or someone will bring this cruel Locks of Love hoax to a merciful end. 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

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.

Vineman, have you looked at the LOL website? Do you now anything about the wigs they make? They are custom fitted to the head of the individual, take a long time to make, and cost thousands of dollars. The families of people who usually get the wigs have already probably spent thousands of dollars of their own money on treatment.

It's also nice that LOL does help sick kids with their self image and self esteem...and if it helps contribute to my short hair fetish it's even better.

But don't worry Vineman, if you have long hair, you're safe. Men getting their hair cut does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING for me!!! So any man will never hear me tell them to get a cut...as for women, buzzbacks and pixies rule!

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.

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.

Date Posted: Oct 21, 2004 at 7:27am

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?

Date Posted: Oct 31, 2004 at 2:08pm

!t`., $@ $ p``dd
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).
