Beauty Pageant Contestant

Alyson Campbell has been competing in pageants since she was seven years old. There was a wall full of trophies in her parents' house. She was very meticulous about her hair and make up and dress. She could spend over and hour just getting ready for a date.

This week was the week for the Miss California pageant, and Alyson, now a 20 year old coed strutted into the pageant staging area like she owned the place. She barely acknowledged her fellow contestants as she went to her table and set up her beauty supplies. Today was the day for headshots, and she spent a long time getting ready. She was using a new hairspray and it combined with the fumes from her nail polish and new perfume to give her AGS.

She took her headshots and returned to the backstage area.

Contestants, pageant moms, and coordinators milled about along with a couple of female custodians.
