QUESTIONS FROM MEMBERS:

@Babu said What is your hair care routine? I think your hair is incredibly beautiful!

First of all, thank you!! I wash my hair twice a week, and try not use any heat. I let it air dry and then blow dry it, and that’s about it besides straightening my fringe. I use Nak bond repair shampoo and conditioner

@Flareon asked What kind of music are you into?

Most of what I listen to now is what I listened to while in high school. Metal, punk, ska

Here is my past favourites on Spotify, if you’re interested - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF1EpTksa3aJtoRn?si=3aX3R0SwQGO5r58vvESFOQ

@Maleh asked What was your feeling the moment you became pink? How did you celebrate?

Honestly, I still don’t think it feels real. I saw @milkydame a few weeks later and she congratulated me and I was like ‘what for? What did I do?’

I celebrated at home and one of the @suicidegirlsaustralia sending me a bottle of champagne

@Ash_Oh asked What is your favourite tarot card, if you have one?

I need to spend more time on tarot, but I really like the death card and all it stands for. I even have it tattooed on my thigh

@Kingofcool asked If you were stranded at the top of a burning building, which superhero would you like to rescue you?

Hmmm, good question!! Probably one that could teleport? Or Quicksilver from X-Men because he would get me down those stairs quick smart

@Vegantechn0 asked 1 to 10 - How happy are you right now with the life you are having?

Hmmmm. I don’t believe we are happy all the time, but the sad/bad moments make the good just that much sweeter. I’d say I’m overall pretty happy

I have AMAZING friends, and my support network around me honestly is something I never knew I could have. The amount of love my friends show me make me truly feel blessed.

@Lioncourt asked When have you felt the most challenged? And the most proud?

The most challenged has been this whole year, really. I’m studying and working constantly, but am kicking goals and doing so much better than I expected so I’m very proud of myself

QUESTIONS FROM SUICIDEGIRLS:

How were you first introduced to SuicideGirls?
I was in school and saw a picture of Radeo, and realized being me was totally ok and should be celebrated

Where do you find inspiration?
I find inspiration in life. In movies, songs, nature. I get inspired a lot by fantasy and sci-fi movies and the amazing costumes

What impact has your culture / identity had on your modeling journey?
I think more than anything my body type has made it interesting in the modelling world. I’m not skinny, but some think I’m not big enough to be plus. I’m in a weird limbo stage. I’ve been accepted for who I am for the most part, and modelling has helped me appreciate my body and fall in love with myself

What is your favorite form of self expression?
I would have to say modelling, as it allows me to show and get out different emotions and vulnerabilities…. And allows different facets of myself to shine

What is your favorite form of self-care OR what is your self-care routine?
Tea, a good book, and a bath. Maybe add a face mask on that, and just sink into the quiet and softness
~
What part of your beauty routine makes you feel most confident?
I love the connection to self I get with my nightly routine of serum and moisturizer. I treat myself with kindness and give myself a little mini face massage.
~
What impact has SG had in discovering yourself as a person and a model?
It’s allowed me to really find who I am, without the worry of feeling judged or like an outsider. I'm very thankful for this community

Share a memorable experience from your point of view as an alternative model in your ______ community
As a plus/curvy babe, it’s definitely been hitting those milestones (such as turning pink). It can be harder to really make it in modelling and it feels like you need to work harder and put so much into it. But hitting those milestones, whether it’s getting into a big magazine or turning pink… it feels validating and gives others hope -- @diamant
