Hairdresser Reacts to Americas Next Top Model Makeovers S.12 

"We don't make decisions for shock value." I...beg to differ.

It seems like they cut model's hair based on what would be the most drastic change rather than what suited their features best

When COVID dies down you should get 14 clients together in a video and do ANTM style makeovers for them (including a photoshoot!)

Why is brad giving me “I killed my husband and got all his inheritance” vibe with his outfit

Why do all of the before pictures look like a mugshot the morning after an amazing night on the town

"she just gets more and more iconic every time I see her" Me: *thinks about all the times she's been rude to the girls, forced them into uncomfortable situations for ratings then claims it's because the modeling world is just like that, makes them feel lesser, makes things about her, organizes extremely questionable/blatantly racists shoots for shock value* Hm. Yes. Iconic.

"We don't make decisions for shock value" Literally tricks a girl into thinking she's getting her hair cut short and once she's crying and going into a panic attack laugh at her pain and tell her they aren't cutting it. They LITERALLY made that decision EXCLUSIVELY for the purpose of shock value. Like unless you and your besties are super into pranking each other and it's like a thing you actually bond over, no one behaves that way to people they don't know.

"We're not making decisions for shock value!" Oh. We just lyin' now, Mr. Jay??

Stylist: scares a girl pretending that they will cut their hair when she doesn't want to Also stylist: we don't do things for shock value

I think women get a badder rap for hair. We are told from a young age that our hair is our “crown” and sometimes we rely on it for our beauty. Some people even see shorter hair as “masculine.” I remember when I cut my hair, people CONSTANTLY would ask me “why I cut it” and “Your hair was so pretty.” We need to remember that not everyone in this world is so progressive and people can influence your thinking and we can project that onto ourselves.

"we're not making decisions for shock value" ummmmm i call bs

we need to stop making fun of girls who cry when their hair is cut. There is a lot of inscurity there, we feel like we are losing our femininity. Hair represents security, comfort, beauty and femininity (in most cases, even if its not true). Even if our hair doesn't define us, it is still a part of us and it is difficult to let all that go so suddenly. People who have never had long hair (that they actually adored) will never understand so please stop making fun of them. Edit: I just wanted to add: I don’t mean that having long hair is feminine itself, I mean that in the past it was linked to femininity and that stigma has stuck. So even if it’s not true, a lot of women have a hard time cutting their hair because they are afraid of challenging their own femininity.

America's Next Top Model almost always gave black contestants a straight weave. As if they couldn't do anything else with their natural hair. Then again, they usually go to high-end hair salons that don't have black stylists or stylists trained to work with textured hair. That contestant with the afro looked so much better with her afro than with her weave. Also, why do they always get stylists who don't know how to do weaves properly?! 😭 It hurts.

Can we just talk about how Tyra calls the girls “busted up models” and “wannabes”? Good lord 😵

Fun fact! Celia, the one who you said recited lines, was actually super into fashion! She was really well informed about a ton of stuff in the fashion/modeling world

The annoying thing about Celia's was that they cut her hair off, and then claimed she photographed "too old".

I mean it’s not that insane to not want your whole head cut off cause you could be voted off in a week. Tyra most definitely does some of them for shock value

Every.damn.time. I smile when you say "hi beautiful." Like how is that even possible. Lol love ya bunches, you beautiful human.

For the girl with the massive eyes: Her hair color NEEDED to be like white platinum blonde. Like literally white. I feel like that’s what she has now and it literally looks like she should have been born with it

I can't remember her name, but that one girl might actually know who is John Barreett is. She was one of the ones who knew all the current designers, photographers, etc. She was reciting them in her interview and designed all of her own fashions. So, she might be legitimately fan-girling...OR she could still be reading a script. Hahaha

Brad: There is NO way this girl knows who this hairdresser is! Me remembering Celia being a serious fashion and style knowitall! #loveuBrad

As someone who is losing hair do to an illness, please don't say "its just hair". I think brad can relate when I say some people enjoy doing hair, and when you lose the one thing thats yours, its terrifying. Especially when all those men were so rude about it. She was scared and thats okay. Don't ever be ashamed of feeling that fear. When its uncontrollable and you no longer have the thing you've had all your life, its hard. Everyday I wish I had my long, thick hair again. Now all I can do is wear extensions and hope one day it maybe can grow back.

I feel like every time Tyra sees someone as a ‘threat’ (prettier than her) she sabotages them in the makeovers...

“We’re not making decisions for shock value” Maury: “determined that’s a lie”

I think it's important to remember that sometimes people create such attachment to their hair because of trauma in their lives. Their hair may be the only thing they have had control over, so having someone else trying to change it without their consent can be equally as traumatizing ❤

Even Dolly Parton wouldn't take offense to what you said because her iconic blonde hair is a WIG 😂

The girl with the big eyes looks like a Tim burton character

The girl who looks like a dolly.. the hair 😭 omg. She looks like she's wearing a cheap party wig. Wtf 😭 Dolly Parton does not accept this look. Even she would disavow.

As someone who's cut their hair really short after having it long for a long time, I can tell you that it is really hard. Hair is something that gives you security and getting rid of it can really affect your self-esteem, I cannot even look at myself some times because I just break down, I no longer feel pretty or even like myself. So please, stop making fun of her.

So fun facts: indigenous people have do put a lot of emphasis in their hair. I'm navajo and its very important to have long hair. It's kinda complicated but it dates back to bordering school would cut natives hair to "civilize" them. My dad was in charge of cutting younger boys hair in bordering school. But yeah their are cultural reasons people have long hair and have a deep connection to it. Also a lot of native boys get teased for their long hair. Just some info.

bro celia was NOT reading lines she was so dedicated to modeling like...she had so much knowledge that shocked even the judges

It's not a Brad ANTM video without: - Brad bringing up Jay's white hair - Brad talking about how good Tyra looks - Brad asking, "wait, what year was this?" and being completely off

I adore Allison Harvard. That woman can rock any and all hair styles and colours. The versatility is crazy amazing. The only reason I kept watching this season was for Allison. Thank you for the video. Keep up the amazing work!

Hair is deeply sacred and spiritual to some people and even though it seems like a material object to you, it can mean a lot on a deeper level and that's okay. In many cultures and religions, people consider growing their hair as a connection to the divine

I do not watch that America Top Model Show. Tyra is too abusive.

If brad doesn’t show up in the limo I’m gonna be so dissapointed

I feel like, the girl with the fro looked better before. Her fro made her stand out, absolutely gorgeous. And the straight long her makes her look average, just another girl with exentions.

Its not funny, hair is important to peoples confidence. Also, they were just coming at her with scissors looks super uncomfortable to watch so probably was a gross situation to be in.

This show really didn't age well. It is outrageous how little respect was given to consent. The girl litterally had to bend foward after saying wait several times to prevent them from cutting her hair. Yes it comes with the job, but that doesn't negate her consent. I hate watching this show now. Love watching Brad though!!

Lol the girl whose hair isn’t changed gets sent home almost every time.

"Courtney, gosh she's tan and there's not much I can do about that." Wtf Tyra

I feel so bad for that girl that they didn't end up doing anything to... Why would you torment her like that? That was really unneeded.

Brad: “It’s the most tacky thing.” Also Brad Mondo: “If I don’t get it..I want it now.” 😂how can you not love Brad💞😂

I mean I can’t judge them for being so protective over their hair, my hair hides lots of my facial insecurities lmao

That bonde doe eyed girly look like she ended up getting a party city wig.

What's sad to me, is when I would cut my hair super short and the ladies in the salon getting their basic bitch hair done would look at me and say, "I wish I could do that! I could never. My husband/boyfriend would be so mad at me!" Dude, it is YOUR hair! I actually did have a guy break up with me because I cut my long hair into a shoulder length bob. It is literally just hair. It grows back. Yes, I am that girl that will say, "Do what you think will look great on me." It has backfired once or twice, but it's hair!

Foe's hair was definitely my favorite makeover of this season. She HATED IT for so long, but it was absolutely amazing, especially when she let her natural curls come out.

Does America’s next top model ever actually become America’s next top model???

For the first time I understand this girls, it's so mean how while growing up society tells you that you only attractive/pretty if you have long hair, but shame women when they are attached to their hair.

Honestly, I don’t think they should just cut off their hair when they obviously don’t want it. During quarantine, my mom cut my hair, and I asked for a bit of a trim. She cut off over four inches, and I was close to crying. It wasn’t that I thought it was ugly, no my mom did a wonderful job, it was that I had grown it out for years. Please don’t laugh at these girls because they probably work hard to make it so long and they are just like “we’re cutting it all off!!”

I like some of the girls’ long hair. Everybody’s hair doesn’t need to be short. 🥴

Brad looks ready to perform Black Swan and I love it

I'm glad they didn't chop off Natalie's hair. It looked really pretty and healthy. It takes years to grow out hair to that length. Yeah you're more than your hair but some people are proud of theirs - not everyone needs a choppy pixie cut with bad highlights that will look like shit while its growing back out, two weeks before they get eliminated. 😒 Plus you still have the right to say no even if "you're a model." God they did so much disgusting shit on this show.

Me: Looking my absolute worst. Brad: Hi beautiful Me: If you only knew...

I clicked faster than Brad can say “Hi beautiful” !!

"flattered? I'd be bored" is such an epid Brad line 🤣

I can tell how old this season of AMNT is simply because the corner says new Gossip Girl episodes.

Low-key HATE how Tyra said the beeeeautiful Afro was “limiting” and then gave her long smooth hair w a slight wave

Allisons actually looked good when she styled it straight, the styling was awful but once she got her hand on it it looked amazing

every time a black women looks natural on this show they give them some European makeover they gave that girl blonde hair and it didn’t work on her because it didn’t work for her features then changing that girls afro to some long wavy hair which is cool but she looked better before

"You would love to see EVERYBODY platinum blonde" "Why does everybody saaaay that!?" BECAUSE IT'S TRUE BRAD😂😂😂

My hair is long, curly and healthy after YEARS of babying it since I abused it as a teenager. So I would probably be the one having a panic attack if someone tried to cut it.

I don’t understand why people find it funny when a girl is having her super long hair cut pretty much against her will. My hair is down to the bottom of my back and I’ve struggled to grow it due to damage. The idea of it having to be cut back, If someone told me I would look prettier or edgier with short hair, or hat it might further my career?! I don’t care I would straight up refuse. I love my hair and I’ve worked damn hard to keep it this long. Same with those girls. It’s cruel

Don’t you throw shade at Celia. She knew her shit.

Could u react to people who shave their heads then dye it cool colours?! (I’ve seen people do leopard print and hearts etc!!)

“She looks like a living doll!” RIGHT?! She’s so pretty!

The pretty girl with the Dolly Parton looks like a wig and very unnatural

My hair was halfway down my back and doing absolutely nothing for my round face. Brad, you inspired me to get 15 inches cut off and I have sooo much more confidence!

Allison has such a pretty look. Her doll eyes won me over!

I found out yesterday that my grandmother watches Brad on FB. She got so excited talking about him and I asked if it was him and her face lights up as she goes “YEAH! That’s him!”...... precious!

I bet Celia does know who John Barret is. She’s a hardcore fashion girl. And I could stare at Alisons face forever.

Brad!!!! You need to watch the makeovers of germany's next topmodel, especially season 7 and upwards! They have way better before and afters and heidi klum makes more of a game out of it which is super fun!!

I remember being sooo sad and pissed when Allison Harvard didn't win, she was my favorite and probably one of the most memorable models (mostly cause her eyes) but idk I love her

Celia definitely came into that season a major fashionista/fashion enthusiast, so I'd say it was believable that she knew who John Barrett is. Also, when they fixed Teyona's weave later in the season I think I actually cheered.

i completely understand the attitude of “it’s just hair” but i also think it’s important to point out that in many cultures hair is very important, for example in many indigenous cultures. many native people today cherish their hair especially because their ancestors were forced to cut it off in assimilation based boarding schools. i know that this is not the case for everyone but we never know people’s story, their possible struggles with illness that caused balding or trichotillomania. i only point this out to remind all of us never to judge what is important to others because we don’t know their story. anyway i love you brad and everyone else on here have a great day be kind to yourself💖💖

Popular opinion: Everyone wants to have brad as hairdresser

Only 47 seconds in and there's already a dislike. Haters got their notifications on. (The typo is fixed y'all can stop arguing.)

3:22 okay as a STAN of this season, celia was always dressed to IMPRESS and she knew so much about the fashion world so i think she genuinely knew who he was and his importance.

He said, “They screwed you over with that weave.” 😂 “They didn’t even give you a part what kinda sh** is that.” Bruhhhhhh I’m laughing so hard

the girl that they cut her hair into a pixie cut and dyed it blond looks so much like jack frost to me idk why but she does😂🤦‍♂️

Fo is so incredibly pretty. Love her skin and eyes.

Honey the real tea about this cycle is Natalie going off on tyra and the judges and producers after her elimination but they never aired it👀 #allisonwasrobbedtwice

I think we all love the drama, the hair pulling, the action, and most importantly the Brad Mondo.

I can't believe that Brad went from this hair to a teal mullet I'm two months

THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED RIGHT NOW BRAD IS SINGLEHANDEDLY BRINING HAPPINESS TO 2020

Does this show ever get to a point where the weaves don't end up making them look like they're wearing cosplay wigs?? Although the models typically seem to like the result so that's good at least lol

I don’t like how he said I don’t get how people protect there hair so much. Like bro it’s a cultural thing for some family’s to not cut your hair.

Just saying Celia was educated in fashion. She definitely knew him.

BRAD... CELIA KNEW WHAT SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT she could recite designers and collections ALL DAY... how dare you doubt her knowledge... LMAO. love u boo

I love London! She had such a beautiful face and a positive, sweet personality... what a queen

I have Lupus and Sjogren's and my hair is falling out bad to the point where I had to buy some wigs but I also have fun with what I have, I have a dark shadow root with a Pink length.

Hi cancer survivor here, (non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma) and I totally get why she would freak out about her hair (used to be down to my butt before I lost it all)- however, Brad is right to an extent how hair shouldn’t be our identity. We are beautiful no matter what superficial changes we make to ourselves. We just have to put everything in perspective. When I got diagnosed, instead of letting chemo take my hair, I went to the salon the day after my neulasta shot, and got it all chopped off and had my own little makeover. Got a pixie with undercut and razored in designs. Started losing more hair a week after, then shaved myself bald. I decided on my terms when to part with my hair. It was a tough, but also easy decision given the perspective. So guys, don’t take your hair for granted, but also, don’t let something as superficial, or easily changeable define a large part of you, or make it part of your identity.

Hair means things to people and as a stylist you should know that! Its a huge part of people's identity

Pov: you're trying to come up with a witty comment because you're so early but your brain is lagging

After all the clips that came out of antm I cant hype Tyra anymore, that woman is problematic

If you ever wonder what gaslighting is the bs they pulled with the girl making her think she’s about to lose her career or her hair one second then saying “you need to trust the people you work with” after revealing they were lying about the whole thing.. is a pretty good example.

to all the people, especially men, laughing about women being attached to their long hair getting it cut off: maybe you'll get it if you imagine that you went to the gym for 5 years straight and then some entertainment show comes along and "forces" you into doing a procedure that makes all your muscles go away. would you cry or would you be like "it's alright i can grow my muscles back."

i love how just over it jay looked during the detective tyra call lol, he looks so fed up with the stunt

Fo Porter has always been my favorite! She had inspired me to get my pixie cut🥰 she's stunning.

"We're not making decisions for shock value", they claim, after having someone leaning over her with scissors as she recoils away from them. I get your point about the hair being precious and how that doesn't work for models, but there's a difference between giving the option and having a man literally in your space almost forcibly about to cut off your hair?????
