One gem: Models often show up to shoots unshaven, knowing that any body hair would be edited out.

"They come to these photo shoots and, like, they have their arms up in the classic beach pose, and they have, like, hairy armpits. They all have stubbly pubes -- all the normal stuff [nonmodels have]," the source says. Even if their http://thefashionist.in/ armpits were unnaturally smooth they'd still have to be edited -- all armpits show up http://www.sucessomodas.com.br/ange-ou-demon-accord-illicite-givenchy/
