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.”

Often times they’ll just hire an average looking actor and make them look bad using makeup and they’ll very bad because they cast the rest of the roles to attractive people
