the, the grand beauty salon in leipzig. the people who work here are familiar with different cultural preferences and beauty standards. the international team consists nearly exclusively of people with a refugee or migrant background. most are professionally trained in their craft and some self taught. but every client seems to appreciate their know how of the on the different tiers and other beauty salons, i've only been once before to a beauty salon in germany. and then i went because of a friend of mine. many of the customers are migrants, so rarely or never go to a beauty salon in germany. some feel uncomfortable or sometimes wearing a headscarf might make a visit to a conventional hair dresser,
3:39 pm
can possibly come up in all you can just close your eyes while i apply the make up and maybe try to relax a bit. so did you get here? okay, mark wants to grand beauty salon to be a safe space. was, is done over 100000 miles. this was list a place where they like to be treated where they feel comfortable overcome, where they don't get any comments about the texture of their hair or skin color, but can just have a seat in that and share their thoughts about anything from somebody's in a more critical way and shouldn't be done on the also sort of market to show the makeup artist says, visiting a beautician in germany can often be a discriminatory experience for people of color. she has little doubt about why that is partridge for her to y'all on the sabbath. misguided beauty standards fire, which are both extremely western and white. this matter that they can leave a person feeling inadequate. this, they don't correspond to this idea of beauty office,
3:40 pm
especially since they might not fit in with any other kind of pursuit had to do i just pushing so many salons, only carry cosmetic products for lighter skin tones i've often tried to use make up for white skin, and it makes me feel like a clown yang. but here it's all very natural. so i'm very grateful to smoke afresh is a performance artist and cultural educator. she found that the grand beauty project for a long time, grand beauty was a mobile beauty salon. moving between german cities were fargo and her team organized workshops. but the permanent location here in lansing has been open for a year now. and last night he had on falls compass we often see 1st time encounters between people who otherwise wouldn't have crossed paths in their everyday lives.
3:41 pm
to many places where communities simply don't mean attacks leaving because people are more likely to stay in their own circles. speaking the same language. yeah. and so i'm end up like the monthly collections tired, nicely cou now is one of the largest pre fabricated housing estates built in the former communist east germany. nowadays, it's a low income area where many residents have a negative view of foreigners. the intercultural salon is located right here in a park. a headset wants to educate people through her work there. her own experiences as a young muslim woman indicate it is much needed. and you must be mission of us with most dilemma. phobia is very noticeable when dealing with the german authorities and within the school system there for me on this i have many nieces and nephews with whom i love spending time. the money drives me crazy, but i'm told again and again i'm on i um, just need to fax. i've asked to clear who dodge?
3:42 pm
yeah. wow. you speak such a german one. right. and i would like to reply, yes, dear, i'd sure hope so, since i was born here a month in germany, my native language was indeed not even worse. so the people who make nasty comments, i'm try to spit it me move away or leave a room as soon as i enter. why must hello our start asking insensitive questions. um, yeah, i would, i am in descriptive harvey said she would like the grand beauty salon to be a meeting place that brings people from different cultures together in a relaxed atmosphere and helps to overcome prejudices. sions by them on, on them. so you want to show to down here in a bit longer on the top, you don't have much on the fine have my son left sooner have dinner. this is colleen little bones, 4th time, and it's alon. she's lived in leipzig go now for almost 30 years,
3:43 pm
but she hardly knows anyone with a migrant background. well, he'll say i'm about to in house to the house and there are a few ukrainians living in our building quite, you know, they're nice people, but it's not easy to talk to them because of the language barrier. it does fall off of the 3rd german, isn't that good in this, it's close to home for here, dresser, if the sounds so hard in 2015, she crossed the mediterranean sea to flee the civil war in libya before arriving in germany cutting here has allowed her to improve her german and make new contacts. the beauticians work on a donation basis and the project is funded by grants. many on the ground beauty team has only been given temporary permission to remain in germany. and don't have work permits. a volunteer hours only count as an internship,
3:44 pm
but they increase the chances of obtaining a residence permit this quick to tabulate. since our program is part of an art project that gives people the opportunity to work on a voluntary basis. um that's mentioned an emphasis, i don't necessarily need to residents per month for that. and uh and if everything works out well, if everyone gets along and is ready to turn this into a part time job. and so i'll continue down that path when you drop no sports, kids 5 talk to no daily working in the salon. could be a stepping stone to getting into the german beauty industry, which can do with a lot more. thank versity, according to mar, in berlin. she teaches at the german pop academy training center for aspiring makeup artist and on the side,
3:45 pm
she freelancer's as one herself. she believes that her hand scarf is the reason why she hasn't been offered a permanent job anywhere. who don't say enough for 0, i would have loved to treat it as a hairdresser, but i didn't fit in so well with the teams at the salons where i applied, not even after getting my diploma as a makeup artist inherent designer in this thing. so to be able to dress the way i like, i had to start my own business. miss thompson, come in today's class, she doubles as a model while teaching us my such fro hair, arabic, coal, aren't asian eyeliner. she wants to train her students to meet all of their potential customers needs, even if the mannequins remain western european for the time being tomato sauce. if you have a normal hair spray, it was something 1st so that it doesn't get all funding is which model is convinced that beauty salons can promote tolerance,
3:46 pm
and that the grand beauty salon in leipzig can serve as an example. let's think of those. i think this is exactly what we need from time every day. places like this to come together to them even if we don't like each other in the street. i don't want to look at each other and run the sample. the best thing is when something changes inside our customers, and they get a new perspective such as on and off in most plan, not the . what makes someone useful. who defines that? and what role does society play? these models are preparing for a photo shoots in a parking run, but a quite unique albino sisters, matilda, and angelica or really being client by the italian modeling agency, input festa,
3:47 pm
which is set itself the goal of changing popular beliefs of what constitutes beauty . and then to put them on this, we don't have fixed criteria for ways all regions, skin color, or hot pretty bad talent is the only thing that matches of selecting our models saelens to for years. now some courses of the fashion industry have suited to stand out just by introducing more diversity and challenging the idea that models must be told, seeing and as little as possible, raising eyebrows. we've models that stand out from the crowd, is the essence that these agencies brand some that are you calling me when i was a kid, people would touch my head to see if it was real or a week. a full set of one of our requests for sort of a as an aspiring model name, a luger had to overcome many difficult totals before he was hired by the input fed to agency. they told me the i had to do something with my skin because he was right . so, well,
3:48 pm
i had to cut my hair because it wasn't present both for the car. and so i had to lose weight in recent years, many labels have begun using largest size models to advertise the clothing but at the recent shows in milan, paris, and new york city science 0 appears to be back. almost all the models were extraordinarily seeing these, the party positivity trend out once the game was it old, just to publish as you move powers, fashion, journalist of expulsion. i wasn't surprised at these latest developments today. practically every show has to have at least one or 2 oversized models. it's all this trend and fashion of inclusive, very of course diversity is also a little bit of a green washing at times when you look in the stores. and if you ask for a huge size, they don't have it, they're really have, yeah,
3:49 pm
as large and maybe extra large, but then they don't have x x x. so it may be a trend, but it has had an effect on the industries image of b. c. models of different types and the cities are more popular than ever. it's also more common for magazines to feature models with disabilities, or ones that are older. is this trend going to continue? i think it's going to continue, but maybe not as much as the price and social media is making out of it. that may be the case, but the impact fits the agency has steadily landed more contracts since they started in 2020 it's just not that much time. so it was very difficult because the labels were only used to working with one type of model got be and it's been gradually more moon labels are realized. not important just what the actual, representing the customer's data for his. instead, imagine probably going to be sent even though it's no longer only the labels. it's
3:50 pm
assigned, once attractive and trendy. now consume is a having a say the next generation is part of a changing society that values diversity. and they want models who reflects these times the she's made it a g minus n, yanna models who could tour pricing catwalks around the world. she's at home in kenya and grew up in a village in the countries in coverage northwest. at the age of 18, a german us and yanna was crowned miss nairobi and shortly afterwards she became an international top model, came into the hyphen scene in for it, 2006. and um yeah,
3:51 pm
for us it was sort difficult to get some these shows back in the days. so to get a show like running to, you know, is like, was, it's a big deal. that's a huge burden at school. less than young and was changed because it has skin tone, but those days are long gone. coming from home where the beauty standards, why the light tell you why the more beautiful you well, and i felt like, oh my gosh finally. these people who think i'm beautiful, so i felt i felt ex, accepted whether it's cold, locally or internationally. it feels like finally visa movement to appreciate people who tend to like d. c is on trains and issue a purchase moves. kids 9 african models. the magazine said, we're redefining what it is to be a session model like models,
3:52 pm
but presented without natural black cat. the cover unleashed a mix of reactions, some sort as a step towards equality. but among the critics, the me, me, john, do office p r x, but i'm journalist fashion has also long been an interest of has and she was skeptical to my issue, mainly with the color was the fact that it was obviously an exaggerated idea of blackness. and the models had the skins darkened um for the shoots. so for instance, in this, in this picture here, as part of the general idea to really you can see that the, the skin has been dolphin significantly. that and the straight hedwig, she says, corresponds with west and ideas about africa, rather than representing a step towards racial equality on the catwalk. as well as stunning and visually appealing. it's not exactly
3:53 pm
a realistic day to day representation of the everyday black personal, the every day black model. so i think if you look at the objective of the sheets versus the execution, it didn't necessarily match up. which was my main, my main issue. i think the black community deserves to critique these kinds of images and the ways that they are produced. yet the campaign still awake can be interest of many young african women who so modeling as a dream, joan model agency head lindsey mackintosh is also aware of the downside of this trend. talk models might get paid up to $10000.00 euros per campaign, but such jobs are few and far between and the work on predictable this wondering while that goes for modeling in general, she says, after can you come as they see from the big challenges it would be hard enough for a girl coming from a city like nairobi to go to new york and be in must,
3:54 pm
in this province superficial well um where everything is about what you look like. and people have no qualms about telling you. sorry, you're not right for the job though. you have temples on your legs or you know, any other thing, you go to have very healthy, self esteem. i think to, to cope with being model yet so many still hope for success. issues outside the victoria and albert museum in london session is frequently exhibited here, often european fashion. a recent landmark exhibition showcased africa is fashion seen with african models. the 1st of its kind, the show and to address europe's colonial legacy in the colonized fashion. west and design is have long appropriated african designs. but now africa and models of african origin, all beginning to get the platform. camila rose lived in london for a few years in her childhood before have parents returned to sell to me off the

coast of central africa. she decided to come back to london where she launched a modeling career. but it's been a struggle. i think before because of the racism, but now i think we assessed a septic to no more than we felt. there's no con pains about like beauty in anything that has to do with those things may be better than they were with us still room for improvement. natural african has styles a still not fully accepted on wisdom catwalks. camilla is familiar with the problem when i was young, my mom straight my head end of the year is all sides still. and now i need to embrace my own head is waiting outside. now not true, i don't want to see any green my lot d t, all the black moves, enjoying the like 6 susan
