I found this online on why there are not more haitian models...
COMMENTS (especially for the BGOL photographers)
I've often stopped to wonder why model-search people don't make a quick run through Haiti.
Because the return is simply not there.
It's a combination of many things.
1. Too many short and average height people.
2. Too much roundness of the faces of those with a decent diet.
3. they don't exude an air of self confidence
4. the black mix....not from the tallest and best looking regions of africa....too many dahomean and congos....and not enough woloof...mandinke....and the likes.
5. the caucasian addition not from the tallest and best looking of europe.....France for crying out loud....then add the hairy, big nosed, bad skin arab....and you get the least attractive mixed group in the caribbean.
6. that caribbean diet.
For model quality blacks..I would head straight to Senegal and the Sahel region...all the way to Chad.
For the Hamitic or Mulatto look, I would head straight to Cape Verde and northeast africa.
If one has to stay in haiti.....I would look in the rice growing areas of latibonit..for that tall dark graceful thing with beautiful skin.
Understand what I am saying; there are many cute and attractive people in the country....but that natural model look/quality is simply not there.
