This interview is with the 2010 Miss Teen Arkansas-World, Morgan Miller who will be giving you her secret pageant hairstyle and makeup tips. Morgan is 18 years old and will be attending the University of Arkansas in the fall. She lives in Little Rock Arkansas and recently graduated from Episcopal Collegiate School. She enjoys cheering and has cheered for over 11 years. She also enjoys playing softball, going to the lake, baking, working out and hanging out with friends.
Do you or a consultant style your hair and apply your makeup?
Jamie: When you compete in a pageant, do you use a professional Hair and Make-up person or do you do it yourself? Either way, please explain why?
Morgan: When I compete I do my own hair and pageant make-up. I chose to do so this time around because I have been taught to do it myself. I have competed in the USA system and the girls are not allowed to have someone do their hair and make-up backstage, so I have learned how to do full and hair and make-up.
Favorite Makeup and Hair Products
Jamie: Do you have a favorite make-up item or hair product for when you compete? I want ALL your secrets HAHA!
Morgan: Well I could not go to any pageant without my lip gloss, especially MAC! It keeps the look very fresh and teen, and for my hair, HAIRSPRAY of course. My hair wouldn’t be looking great without Sebastian Shaper Plus.
But one trick I learned, is that you can use hairspray on not only you hair but your legs! If you spray hairspray on you legs it gives off a more toned, or solid look. I know that sounds really weird.
How Important and How Much Time
Jamie: How important is hair and pageant make-up to you and how much time is spent on it?
Morgan: Well on an everyday basis hair and make-up is not the most important thing, but in pageants it is one of the things I focus on A LOT. I spend about an hour to do my hair and pageant make-up.
Glam or Natural?
Jamie: With regard to Houston, for the Miss Teen United States-World pageant what was your look (more natural or more glam?)
Morgan: For the Miss Teen United States-World pageant I leaned more towards a natural look. Obviously I was on stage and the lights are very bright, so there will be a lot of make-up on, but I prefer leaning to the more natural look.
Biggest Pageant Hair Mistake
Jamie: What is the biggest mistake you’ve seen from other girls hairstyles in pageants?
Morgan: Gosh, that is a hard one. I would have to say too much hair. Meaning that girls will tease their hair way to much, and that is all the audience and maybe the judges will see. I personally think that the more flowy, and natural a girls hair is, the more beautiful.
Jamie: In general, what did you spending most of your time on as you prepared for the Miss Teen United States-World Pageant?
Morgan: Working out!!!!!
