I don't know if any of you have ever seen Tyra Banks- America's next top model, well the girls n the show always have to do these wild and exotic photo shoots sometimes with all this crazy make-up and hair. The pictures above just reminded me of something they would do on the show. I think they are so neat and interesting to look at.
