Do you wannabe Stacy London, Clinton Kelly, Nick Arrojo or Carmindy? Do you think you are talented enough to do what they do? Can you do better? What Not to Wear: Wannabe is a new 2-hour special that's going to give you the chance to prove it!
Wannabe is a nationwide search for aspiring fashion stylists, hair stylists and make up artists. Professional or not we're looking for people who think they've got what it takes to make the world a better-looking place.
We are looking for people who are talented enough to be able to improve the most challenging of clients, who are confident enough to do it on television against the clock, and who have the personality to be able to talk about it as they do it. Teams are encouraged to apply! Twelve finalists will be flown to New York City to compete in a three-day style-driven challenge.
Deadline for Applications and videos is Friday June 24th.
How to apply:
STEP 1: Click here to complete the official application form and video release.
STEP 2: Once you have submitted the online application, make us a video. Send us a 5-7 minute video showing us why you're the best at what you do. Include a before and after makeover demonstrating your unique skill and talent. (For example: If you are a hairdresser show before hair and after hair, if you do make up likewise and if you are a stylist show the person in their choice of clothes and yours.) Be sure to convince us — the more creative the better. You'll need to mail us your video along with this official video release form.
