Ashley: Upgrade. Even though that style can be slightly aging at times, it actually makes her look younger and fresher. Cute photo. ZOMG her thighs are touching!!1411!!!
Bianca: Neither. She really got nothing changed. She looked beautiful before and she still looks beautiful. I dunno why she was bitching about it. That photo is so WHAT I WILL CUT YOU; it makes me laugh.
Brittany: Minor downgrade. I think she looked cuter and fresher before, though it does bring out her bone structure and she pulls it off soooo much better than Clark. I think both of those girls should have gotten a chestnut brown as opposed to going straight to black or whatever, though. Her legs look really weird in this photo.
Courtney: Upgrade. She has no edge, but this gave her the tiniest sliver of one. Haha @ that being the same pose. She looks kind of like a man in the makeover photo :(
Erin: Upgrade. In person, I don't know, her makeover makes her look kind of weird, but it reminds me of when they did kind of the same thing to Allison; for a few episodes, it was almost shocking, but then I got used to it. And at least this one won't turn into a HORRIBLE WEAVE OF DOOM AND RATTINESS. Anyway, why this is an upgrade is because it gives her an edge in shoots. Without it, she's kind of pedestrian-looking. I like the picture, minus the fact that she looks short and that missing arm is just weird.
Jennifer: Upgrade? It looks healthier, but they didn't really do anything to it. Good photo.
Kara: Upgrade. Her hair was a freaking mess before. I like the picture, but she's definitely gonna be the girl who gets kicked off because she can't take a head-on photo.
Laura: Eh... minor upgrade? They just brightened her up a bit. Not a very good picture, she looks like a drag queen, but I still love her.
Lisa: Neither. Did they even do something? GOOD LORD SHE IS SO PRETTY.
Lulu: Downgrade. It just calls attention to her bad mouth. I like the picture and her attitude in it.
Nicole: Any time you make red hair REDDER AND BIGGER AND FLUFFIER, it is SO an UPGRADE! Though, it will probably go away once she washes her hair, booooo. Awesome picture, because Nicole is fierce and awesome.
Rachel: Major upgrade. She kind of looked like a mess before, and normally going almost black with the hair makes girls look weird, but Rachel looks totally beautiful now. Great photo. Work,
Rae: The hair's an upgrade, the lack of eyebrows is a downgrade. She is really beautiful. She still looks chunky in photos, which bothers me, but again, GORGEOUS.
Sundai: Hot shoes. Downgrade. I thought this would be a MAJOR upgrade based on her promo photo, but in person, Sundai's hair made her look gorgeous. She's still a gorgeous girl, but she probably looked better before. I do not like this photo because she is making a point of showing off her armpits, boo. But she does look taller than 5'3" or whatever she is (I know she's the shortest, and she's either 5'3" or 5'4"), and because it bears repeating, hot shoes.
