No, I am not a secret agent. -- By Paris Gerrard


I know it may look like I am an international spy, but don't worry. And I'm not one of those fickle girls that constantly changes her hair color. But, with spring finally here, I feel the desire to create a new look for myself. I have had long blonde hair for most of my life, and for some reason, I have been itching to cut it off. It's like a tennis match in my head -- cut your hair --- no, don't cut your hair. Fortunately, I found this fun section on Instyle's website. It is a free hair makeover program. All you have to do is upload a photo of yourself and start cutting and coloring your hair without the commitment. It's funny to see yourself with hair like Katie Holmes or Keira Knightley. If you, too, are in the mood for a new do, try it out for yourself! Here is the link to the website.

My sister Alex is a hair stylist at LUNATIC FRINGE on Parleys Way in Salt Lake City, Utah. She is an extension specialist, and also does a fantastic job with cuts and coloring. Coming out of a totally artistic family, she innately understands the complexities of color--what works and what doesn't. I didn't have the guts to whack it all off, but we did take off a good five inches. She highlights my ash blonde hair to a beautiful golden, honey color. Thanks, Sis!

So cool and you your sister share artistic talent.

wow, I've never thought of myself as 'fickle' because I change my hair color a lot. Interesting choice of words.
