  1. Haiku says:

    Is there a way of finding out if you’ve won or not? I have entered into every giveaway contest for months and havent had any luck :( Maybe because of the shipping companys? ups,fed ex etc. whats the procedure of delivery if the persons not at home? Sorry for so many questions.
    ,Thanx

    • SBH says:

      Hi Haiku: Due to the large volume of entries we receive each issue, we cannot notify every person who submits a contest coupon. If you did win, you would have either received the prize or a notice from the shipping company telling you they tried to deliver the package but no one was home. A word of advice…keep sending in those coupons! You won’t win unless you try!

  2. Catina claytor says:

    I have won some of the best products and used them and love them love the magazine never misses a issue yet

  3. Tramika Coleman says:

    Want to have my work featured in the magazine. How do I go about doing that? I own my own salon. Xtreme Hair Phanatix, in Prattville, AL.

    • SBH says:

      Hi Tramika: Toward the back of each issue of SBH, you’ll find a Reader’s Corner form. This release form will tell you everything you need to know about submitting your photos to SBH for consideration. And don’t forget to make copies of the form if you’re submitting pictures of more than one model! Every model needs to sign her own release form.

  4. Cynthea Williams says:

    I would like to no when your next makeover contest is and what is the criteria? Thank you for your time.

    • SBH says:

      Hi Cynthea: Keep checking upcoming issues of SBH! If you spot the chance to win a makeover, the magazine will tell you everything you need to know to enter the contest.

  5. Ash says:

    I see you have something about modeling in your magazine but not online?

    • SBH says:

      Hey Ash: If you mean the Readers’ Corner in the magazine and submitting model photos to the publication–yes, we are always looking for great model photos. We do not offer modeling opportunities online.

  6. Marquisha Applewhite says:

    Good morning SBH! A couple of years ago I won the “Day of Beauty Makeover Contest”. How did it make me feel? Words can’t even do my feelings justice but, I will try! I felt like a celebrity. Also, I had a boost in self-esteem and attitude. I was truly amazed because I read magazines on the regular and I never thought in a million years I would see myself featured in SBH. At the moment I received the finalists phone call I was in a dream and every so often I pull out the magazines that featured me and I journey back to my day being the “Day of Beauty” contest winner.
    Thanks again SBH and the whole glam squad at AJES THE SALON!

    • SBH says:

      Nice to hear from you Marquisha! It was our pleasure and we’re so happy you had a great time at the photo shoot and are happy with the results of your makeover. Stay in touch!
