How do movies ask for “ugly” actors?

Question

Or things seen as “negative” otherwise, like specific disabilities (eg. achondroplasia)

I see a lot of ways it could sound offensive. How do they ask for them to audition? Surely they don’t put it bluntly like “need blonde, ugly man.”

There’s an agency called Ugly that specialises in this, but tbh looking at the people there they aren’t terrible looking, and many of them are attractive just in unconventional ways (e.g. tattoos).
