I have a freakishly long hair (when you have to make special arrangements when you use the toilet? your hair is TOO LONG) squick. I get a lot of kinda sadistic, frankly, glee out of those women on ANTM or WNTW who get their too long, unflattering, unhealthy hair cut and they cry. Of course, at least with the WNTW women, they look miles better every time and usually they seem to appreciate it.
I have the Jilli issue of grey all over and not in one striking spot. I'd be willing to grow it out (becauase it is pretty silver and I love silver!) but my hairdresser isn't ready for me to do that. She thinks I'm too young and "rock & roll"! hah! And she really is the one who decides what to do with my hair. So far it's worked out pretty well.
On WNTW, I think they usually go for the short cut because it is the most dramatic change they can make. I think that a good, longer cut would still look good on some of those women, but it wouldn't make for as dramatic of a reveal.
Blerg, Tom got some negative feedback on the interview he had on Monday (he will not be going on in the process) and I feel bad for him. It's good feedback to have, and there are some things that can be applied to future stuff, but rejection sucks, even rejection with perfectly valid reasons. He's been in such a funk about it but seemed better yesterday, and I fear he will funk again.
I fear he will funk again.
sorry about the stupid people who didn't realize Tom's genius, but this conjures up images of star shaped sunglasses and platform glitter boots.
Oh, Nora, that sucks for Tom. At least he got feedback, which is more than many jobs provide. I'm still waiting to hear back from the place I interviewed with on Tuesday. They called the PSE I work with yesterday and he gave a glowing rec for me, but...they called him today because they have 6 positions open for engineers and wanted to know if he's interested. I'm kinda sitting here with my mouth open going, "what?"

Hee! Then my work here is done.

I like the black and pink ones and Josephine's coronation slippers, though I'd be limping by the end of the day from lack of anything resembling arch support.
Aims and I are currently planning on dressing as the Joker and Harley Quinn for Halloween. (Yes, I will be the Joker. I don't have the legs for Harley.) Which means I will have to/get to shave off my moustache and goatee.
You could always go the Cesar Romero route and just white over the facial hair.

Vortex and I are sharing a brain today. Definitely sorry to hear the interview didn't go well.
