On the Justice website, under the FAQ section, this is exactly what they say:
How can I become a Justice or Brothers model?
Justice and Brothers do not currently have their own models.
Depending on the photography requirements, we usually use modeling and
talent agencies that represent young people. Justice and Brothers do not
offer agency referrals. You may want to contact such an agency in your
local area to see what is involved in becoming a model.
In other words, any teen girl's best chances of becoming an actual Justice model is to get signed to a modeling agency that currently has Justice as one of its clients. Why? Because it shows that the agency has already provided Justice with models in the past, which increases the odds that the company will turn to them again for future model castings. Additionally, it also shows that the agency works with quality, high end companies and brands.
They don't state the names of the agencies they use, nor do they refer aspiring models to them. Remember, folks, Justice is a company and is all about putting out their products and making a profit. They don't have the knowledge, resources, time or interest in helping people start their modeling careers--it's simply not their job.
However, through their website I did see that Justice's locations (their website headquarters and customer relations department) is based out of Ohio. So there could be a chance that modeling agencies in the Ohio area are the first ones that Justice turns to. I don't know that for sure but it's just a hunch, since most retailers will use local agencies/models since it's convenient.
If you happen to live in Ohio, it's worth checking out the agencies locally to see if any of them have worked with Justice before.

On the Justice Site it says directly:
"Depending on the photography requirements, we usually use modeling and talent agencies that represent young people."
So having an agent actually does improve your chances of getting hired for Justice. It pretty much says so right on their website.
You should find out if the girl at your sister's school has an agent. It would be great if you knew the name of the agency that way my readers would know at least one agency that has worked with Justice before and I'm sure it would help them out in trying to reach that goal.
A little about me:
I'm a 12 year old girl living in the Bay Area, California. I live about 30 mins away from San Francisco on a good day (you know how Bay Area traffic can be). After reading many of your posts, I'm certain modeling is something I want to do. My parents are supportive, which is a good thing. I'm gonna start taking acting lessons in the fall, I can play piano, guitar, violin, and I'm working on vocal. I've never really taken any dance lessons, but I used to figure skate so I'm flexible and in good shape.
My question:
Do you have any recommendations for local agencies that are good for total newbies like me? Also, I heard minors need some thingy from the state in order to work and get paid. Can I get a little more info about that? Thanks so much for everything in advance!

Because you don't live near the Justice headquarters/main office, your odds of modeling for them may not be very high but that doesn't mean you can't look at local agencies in GA to get your foot in the door as a model that way. If you get signed to an agency in Georgia, you could end up modeling for other clothing brands similar to Justice.
Just jump online and Google keywords like "modeling agencies in Georgia" and you'll come across the websites of agencies that you can submit yourself to.
Best of luck!

Please know that modeling and acting are two different careers. HOWEVER, they are BOTH hard work. It is not simply "looking pretty" and smiling in front of a camera. There's training and forever continued training as well as self-discipline to be relevant in either of these businesses.
You are going to have to find a modeling/acting school or an agency that offers training first. Professionals looking for models & talent want professional models & talent. There are many things that only the trained people know...there are many "do's & dont's" that an untrained person will not realize and ultimately will not be hired because of their lack of training.
There are agencies that take literally anyone on board. Your picture may be sent out, but it will be among hundreds of other people sharing the same descriptions. These will be competing with the agencies that only represent trained professionals with resumes and professional comp cards. If you would even get past that lottery and be asked to audition (which would not be very likely), without professional training you would be wasting your time and money. Also, if they're not looking for someone that has training, they may not be reputable and you should always be very careful not to be so anxious and "starry-eyed" that you put yourself in bad situations. This is yet another reason to keep within the professional realm...there are many bad people out there that prey on people who want to be rich & famous. Don't chase the "fast track to fame" unicorn.
Please know that you will end up spending money on professional photos to be taken seriously. Your uncle with a "good camera" doesn't count as a professional photographer and not all professional photographers should be considered as this industry doesn't look through the same lens as other industries. Selfies should NEVER be submitted to ANYONE unless SPECIFICALLY requested!!
So, be sure that you consider what I've shared. There are literally millions and millions of people that want to be stars or supermodels. 99.9% of them don't make it. It has nothing to do with not being handsome or pretty enough. It has to do with not understanding that the market needs change constantly and it's not personal at all. It has to do with their misconception that it's easy. It has to do with not getting proper training/continued training. It has to do with not believing in themselves. It has to do with their lack of determination and competitive edge. It has to do with not being able to grow in their craft. It has to do with wanting results without putting in the effort. You can't be a doctor without getting the proper training - only the people ignorant of these industries would think that this is any different.
This is only a quick mention of a few things regarding the industry. Do your homework!
Through it all - you be YOU. Professional you, trained you, but YOU. THAT is your best, because nobody does YOU better than YOU. Break a leg!!
-Emma, Justice model 2018
