HI Prymasquous, I think its clear now that the rumors are true. its more than just the hair. It was a combination of factors from hair (I doubt Next would NOT have changed her back if they thought it would help but based on their requests/options, decided it wouldnt be), casting directors/stylist really not into her this season as much as before, the increased competition from the girls, and other reasons. Its rarely ever as simple as they all lost interest in a girl for no reason. Big picture is there probably a lot going on behind the scenes where girl's situations/circumstances change season to season.
Look who they were booking for shows she lost in NY. The bookings for the big shows were pretty spread out this season and the competition is tremendous now.
