ModelPromoter.com Reports How Juliane Hough Shows Models You Don't Need Long Locks to Be Beautiful

Online, October 31, 2011 (Newswire.com) - When the public gets used to a star looking a certain way, the reaction is always mixed when that famous face changes things up. Take, for example, Juliane Hough. The Footloose front girl chopped her long locks almost in half, garnering a good bit of attention. Part of the public's strong response to such a mane makeover is that we associate long hair with femininity. But to say a woman cannot be just as appealing with short hair would be an oversight.

To prove the point, ModelPromoter.com (the same site that showed models how to work out like a Victoria's Secret Model), in conjunction with Style.com, put together a list of the world's top crop-haired models from whom all top models can learn. In fact, it is a far greater feat to gain success with short hair, since a full head can often be seen as a crutch. Take away any assists and what a model is left with is her sheer ability. Can a model appear as feminine without long locks? What would that look like? Check out these household names for inspiration and you just might find out:
