Guidelines

 

“We are looking for REAL children and women.  It’s very important to us that each contestant realizes the importance of being yourself!  We are not a glitz pageant, but want our contestants to feel free to express their personalities and sparkle in their wardrobe.  We ask that you take pride in your appearance, keep clothing “age appropriate”, and dress like a role model.”

 

There should be little or no makeup on children, no flappers or fake hair on any age group.  Makeup allowed for older girls.  Photogenic pictures must be natural also.  Parents may be on stage with child up to age 4 with no penalty.
