Jaeda Young

Jaeda from Cycle 7 didn’t quite warm up to the idea of chopping off her lustrous auburn hair for a short do. She felt that a shorter do would strip her off her femininity, having talked about being among the hottest girls in her school. However, she was given a Halle Berry do that laster her through 6 episodes of that cycle.

After the show Jaeda grew out her hair and has been pursuing  a teaching career.
