I love watching your show. It gives out alot of information that i might need. I have a good idea for your next show. Many women hate being asked their age, 4 me its a hesitation at times. for example how old are the women when you go out to the city. do you tell from the way they dress or how they act on certain things.i would like a makeover because i look like 16 or 17 when i am really 20. keep up the good work.

Hey,i am neelu,age 21.i need not a makeover but a miracle n prayers.i am super ugly wid acne,huge nose,yellow teeth,n as hairy as possible.i need help to fix myself.i dont use makeup mainly because i cant afford it.my clother r usually second hand.i wear whatever i get and wish i could for once have my own clothes and some decent shoes..help me if u can pls pls...

Hi.tyra I love your show And I would love to be on it.I have sweat glands on my neck and underarms. it looks like a constant rash.I have always been self concious of it.I'm always of afraid of picking up my hair and letting my self go.thnak God for husband and family ,church that acceppt me.but I still fill very bad about myself.please help me.

I am so depressed! I live a good life but I cant seem to find happiness. I know getting a make over wouldnt cure my problem but maybe it'll give me a boost. Can you help me, Tyra?

Hello Tyra,
First off I would like to say that just watching your show has helped me alot. I was in a very unloving and mentally abusive marriage for 5 years. I did get two wonderful children out of it, but my self esteem was totally lost. I am also a fibromyalgia patient so I have to do with the stress and pain from that. I used to believe that I was beautiful, but now I just feel like I have gotten fat and lost my looks. After having my children andwith the fibromyalgia my teeth havestarted to crack, I always look worn out and tired with the dark circles that I can't even get makeup to cover. I just want to be backto myself again. I am currently engaged adn getting married next year but my self esteem is so low that I am depressed alot and it tears my fiance apart. I just don't know to do. I want to actually feel as beautiful as he says he thinks I am. I would just love your help or even hints at what I can do to fix my self image inside and out.
Thanks

Hi Tyra! My name is Sophie and I live in Kenya. I am 29 years old. I watch your show faithfully everyday from Monday to Friday...they lift me up so much. I love the way you help people redescover themselves by giving them a makeover! It is very awesome!!! I keep dreaming that maybe one day you will be able to make me over. Do you handle people from this part of the world? Kenya? I had a baby when I was 19. After that I have become a bit chubby and nothing seems to be working anymore. My dresses look funny on me... my hair is kinky. I cannot use chemicals in it because I tried once and they all fell of...had to start afresh. I admire your hair and your taste in dressing. Could you help my dream come true Tyra? PLEEEEEAAAASSSSEEEE!!!??? Otherwise, God bless you and do have a happy new year! I love you and I adore your show!

Hey Tyra.

My name is Tonisha and i'm 16 years old, but this make-over I want isn't for me but for my mom. She's had it rough for as long as I can remember, and never gets a break. She's a waitress at the local Cracker Barrel from afternoon till early mornings, like 11 hours straight. I hardly see her anymore because she's always struggling just to make enough money to pay to take care of me and my brother and two other kids that were kicked out of their homes. My mom has a really kind heart and I feel like she doesn't deserve the card life dealt her. I see her go to bingo in the hopes of striking it big to leave this life we have to help pay for all of us but it never happens, thats why I want this for her, something she can actually have. A break just for her, because she deserves it.She works hard to take care of all of us. Even when she's in heartbreak over my step-father leaving her for another woman because he didn't find my mom pretty enough anymore. Because he left, my mom started to think that she was disgusting to be with or that something was wrong with her. She thinks she's ugly. I believe my mom is strong for dealing with all the hardships from taking care of us, while trying to pay bills. She lost me too foster care once already and doesn't want too again. I just wish something good would happen to her to make her see she's beautiful, on the inside and on the outside. I want you to try and make her see what I see, a strong black woman trying to make it in the world.

Dear Tyra,
I hope this finds you in good health and high spirits.
With over 5,000 posts in this section, I can only hope I that my story is read by you, and compelling enough to be considered for a makeover.

I served 20 years in the Army....in that time, a guy I dated beat and drugged me, then tried to kill me (he went to prison for attempted murder).
A couple years later, after I began working on trust, I fell in love - that real first love, the one that any other cannot measure up to - and the Army broke us up. He became an officer and was transferred away. We went our separate ways, though I admit, I had hope that we would someday get back together.
Over the years ours paths came close to crossing, but never actually crossed, until a few years ago.
My best friend ended up working for him, in the Army in Diego Garcia! Then she got married, and I got to Virginia for the wedding, just after he left for Iraq.
Then a couple years ago, she ran into a mutual friend of theirs, they exchanged e-mails. He told her that Rickey had gotten divorced. The very next day she got an e-mail from that friend - and HIS addy was there. She forwarded it to me. I stared at it for, what seemed, an eternity.
I finally e-mailed him that night, and just a little while later he e-mailed right back!
We have stayed in touch, via e-mail ever since.
I would like to see him. But, before I see him, I'd like a make-over.
Twenty-three years and two kids later (my son just left for the Army, and my daughter is leaving for the Cost Guard in July). I'll be an empty-nester in July, and I would like to look as young as I feel.
I am 44 but feel like I look 50ish. I'm not quite as athletic as I used to be, but do work-out. I think I need a face-lift, a tummy-tuck and maybe a set of vineers, and maybe a little lipo around my thighs and bottom.
I live on VA disability pay, so I could never afford to do this on my own - it is a just wish, a wish that maybe you can help come true.
Blessings and Light,
Holly

Hey Tyra,

Hi Tyra!! I am 23 years old and Im already an ex junkie. I got into a bad relationship with a guy who mentally and physically abused me. He told me every day how ugly I am and that nobody understood what he was doing with me. He also said no guy would ever want me after he was done with me. My self esteem has suffered so badly. Before him I was going to college and modelling so therefor I think I was a good catch! Now, Im not so sure. He beat me down so badly. He made fun of the way I looked but he was the one who made me dress in track pants, baggy clothes and running shoes. I need a makeover to make me feel better on the outside so I can start feeling better on the inside. Ive now been clean for 8 months and Im just ready!! Please Tyra, I think this is the lift I need so I can get out there again!!

Hey there Tyra,

My name is Heather Jensen and I'm a 21 year old student at Appalachian State in good ol' North Carolina. I'm at a time in my life when I want to start making my dreams a reality. My style is extremely laid-back. I practically live in my flipflops! My friends call me "Hippie" because of it. Being called "Hippie" is great, but I would love to be called a successful & independent, goal-driven career woman. Wow, thats a mouthful! :) I would love to have a makeover so I can impress my friends & have that self-confidence to land an amazing job in my field. If you can give me a chance, it would mean the world to me.

Thank you,

Heather Jensen

tyraaaaa! i hope its you reading this cause i couldn't figure out which section i had to write in where you email me back. Well, my names Amanda..i'm 19 and i live with my single mother. My dad was never really a part of my life..and my mother basicly raised me, As well as helped me achieve my dream of going to a famous hairdesign school (paul mitchell the school) paying a total of $19,000 and the only way she could do that was spending her retirement fund on my future. Shortly afterwards, her bestfriend growing up died of cancer. Since then my mother has been severly depressed, and lost faith and self confidence in herself, as well as genuinely doesn't see the beauty I see in her. I love my mother very much and i just would love more then anything to prove to her exactly how amazing she is to me.I truely feel as if no one deserves this as much as her. This isn't a "feel bad for me" email, but it's just a few reasons why I feel she DESVERES it. I need help making my mother not feel old, and look in the mirror and do something i havent seen her do in a while, smile.

Well I guess I will start with I am only 25 and I hate my body! I have 2 children who gave me so many strech marks on my stomach, legs, ect. That I dont wear ANYTHING that shows them off. In the summer I will sweat to death before I would put on a swim suit. This has gotten to the point to were I wont allow my boyfriend to see me naked. Nor do I want to marry him untill I can feel good about myself. I am afriad that if I dont do something about the way I feel about myself he will leave me. We fight because I wont get naked in front of him or I wont have the lights on. I just really can say that I HATE the way I feel and look. I hope I can get on your show and have that little boost of self confidence that you show while on your show. I love to watch you and to see so many people being comfortable about who they are because of you. Please help me. Sarah

Hey Tyra,
I watched the show with that girl who had the really bad teeth and you got them fixed for her! It was a great show, but I have to admit I was really jealous of her because I have really bad teeth as well. My teeth are bad because I am scared to go to the dentist because last time I went (5+) years ago it hurt when they cleaned my teeth, I told them it hurt and they just said I was lieing, so I wouldn't go back. Now I have lost my insurance and can't go to the dentist. I am 21 and can't eat most foods because it's to hard to chew or it hurts really bad. I can't eat candy because it hurts to bad, and sometimes my mouth just hurts. I really hate my teeth and wish I could be as lucky as that girl was. Your a great person and help people all the time, so I can't be mad at you for not finding me, you're only one person, you can't help the whole world, but you try. I will keep writing to you, I have for awhile now, maybe one day you'll find me and help me too.
-Kate

He--llll--ooooo Tyra!

I want to be on America's Next Top Model, but I am 35 years old, I stand 5'2, and have some baby fat, not baby phat, BABY FAT, around my belly. I give thanks to my 16 year old son, and 2 year old TWIN girls. I think you should have an America's Next Top Model for women who is not the typical tall and skinny.
It would be a GREAT moral booster, and it will make all of us enjoy watching America's Top Next Model,instead of being Jealous!!! LOL!!! Keep up the great job, and I love it when you have the "Questions that's never been asked" Who comes up with the questions? They are hilarous!

Stella

Dear Tyra, my name is Denise Tate .I really love your show.It inspires me a lot because there are things that I can connect to. Im 15 yrs.old and I ha ve a sister that is 32 yrs. old,She enjoys your show to.After my mom died she took me in,so I have been staying with her every since.We enjoyed your show that you gave the makeovers on.My sisiter and I would really enjoy a make over. She works hard but looks like it, sometimes she looks like she was ran over by a truck. She has dark rings under her eyes and doesn't have the clothes that make her look at least decent. I would pray that she is chosen and she is made over.

Thank you
Denise

Dear Tyra, I'm writeing you for my 33 year old mother she has 7 children of her own and 2 step children I was Just Wondering If you Can help my mom look hot and sexy.
Love always your young fan Zadaya Nieves
