America’s Next Natural Model, an online pageant to promote natural hair, Black beauty & Naturalistas.
Natasha: I guess you were the first to upload your photos this time. Unfortunately it’s not good news. Your pictures don’t say model at all. Your shoot looks like it has been randomly done with a picture phone. Natasha, I am sorry to say, you are the 2nd one to leave the competition. Munya: The […]
I loved loved loved seeing how beautifully the Doodles came out on all you lovely ladies! All of you were stunning, and it was a joy to see your beautiful natural hair in “Doodle” styles!

Another fab week! I’ve never heard of doodling but you ladies have definitely made me want to give it a try! my favourite image this week came from Ebony, it showcased her hair perfectly, was edgy and unique.
Ebony- My favorite was the photo with the rose. It was simple and beautiful. It really showcased your hair and your beauty. I would like to see more variety in facial expressions. Munya- I enjoyed the hairdo. You look beautiful in your photos, but I did find them to be very similiar to each other. […]
Ebony, Timolin and Nina – I felt like your submissions were the best this week. You provided clear instructions on my favorite style the twist-out.

I picked Timolin as my favorite for this challenge. Nina and Denitrika came in close!

Challenge 4: Ebony You really let your natural beauty shine through on this Challenge. You did not over do the makeup, which is tempting when you are advertising a brand of makeup.

Ebony: It’s time to take it up a level! Your pictures are nice, but only just nice this week. Although you looked beautiful, it didn’t really pop. I much preferred your jewelry pictures. However in your make up ad shots, they are all very natural which is nice for every day life but in a […]
