Weigh In: Love This Hairstyle or Hate It?

I found this survey on another blog, and thought I would post it here to see what everyone thinks....

The first hairstyle is Mia Farrow in "Rosemary's Baby" (an old movie for those who never heard of it) and the other picture is Michelle Williams....so, what do you think of the short hairdo? I think it looks great, but not everyone can pull it off!

Post your comments below...


How to Properly Apply Hair Products

You won't achieve your desired hairstyle without hair products, according to Antonio Gonzales, master stylist at Eva Scrivo salon in New York City.

"Water is not enough!" says Antonio. "The hair needs to be protected."

To properly apply a styling spray, cream or gel, saturate hair with product, then comb product through hair so it is evenly distributed. You want the product to coat each strand rather than just sit on top of it, according to Eva Scrivo in the March 2007 issue of 'O' Magazine.

Antonio suggests using a wide-toothed comb or boar's hair brush to comb hair. Never use plastic or metal brushes, he says.

How to Look 10 pounds thinner in pictures

Secret No. 1: Turn partially sideways to the camera, planting one foot in front of the other. Point your toe to the camera and place your weight on your back foot.

Secret No. 2: Pull head forward slightly to minimize any appearance of a double chin.

Secret No. 3: Hold arms slightly away from your body. This keeps upper arm flab from flattening out and therefore appearing flabbier (much like thighs do when one sits on a couch).

Secret No. 4: Pull shoulders back, chest forward and gently suck stomach in. Be careful not to suck stomach so far in that your ribs show, thereby causing those who later see the photo to cluck to themselves in a bemused, sing-song voice, "She's sucking i-in."

Secret No. 5: If you can get away with it without looking like a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Cover Girl wannabe, try the look away trick. To do this, look away from the camera, then turn towards it, breaking into a smile just before the camera clicks. Your smile will appear fresh, not frozen. This tricks takes practice behind closed, locked doors.

When taking a photo it's also important the photographer does not snap the picture from below. This adds another 20-50 pounds to the 10 pounds automatically and annoying added by the camera.
