Cordelia Enid H Lol yeah.. it doesen't help ease into the short haircut. I recently just chopped off my hair ! lol (dispay pic isn't me) 2 months later.. I still think to myself.. what did i doo?? lol but it's cool I'm learning a lot from the experiences. I cut it "boy short". Have you ever done a drastic hair cut like that before??
Cordelia Enid H Ooooo Go ahead girl =D Sounds really cute! Congrats on that big step!.. Lol perception is everything. Are you happy with it?? Lol yeah you know what mentally I wanted to do it about for a few years. So, when I saw my hair being cut I wasn't freaking out! I actually wanted to do a "head shave" but I chickend out and just opted for a short haircut. I might still do the head shave thing in the future just to feel free and to say I've done it.. I shaved the side of my head once lol but I thought if I did the whole thing my parents might think I "snapped" so I left some hair x) I was not happy with how the lady cut it though.. I looked like a "butch" LOL I had to go home and put gel and style it. My hair is curly so it gets puffy when short. x) I'm happy with it.
+Grace Faith They could have cut her hair at elbow length and layer it to give volume, add loose waves or curls, change her outfit, thats it. No man likes a bob on his wife.
Rosebud R Lol Rosebud, I love your name :).. Haha really you don't think men like the bob?? Personally I can't even pull of the bob because my genetics wouldn't let me. My hair is naturally curly so my "bob" would end up looking like one of those wool brillo scrubber pads you use for your dishes.. That's how I look now cause I recently just cut my hair >,
Oh for gosh sakes...she never looked 40. She just didn't have any style/makeup. She still just looked like a 20 something with no makeup. They didn't need to cut her hair that short, they just did it for shock value and for a big change. She'd probably have been more happy with a waist length cut.
***** I agree - I hardly know anybody below 30 with a bob. I would've done waist or even mid-back length. Then just shape it, maybe give it some layers. And a more natural makeup set would have suited her general personality a bit better. Also, "I'm enjoying this" is not a good thing to say when removing somebody's lifelong security object. Really, I just did not care for this entire segment. Doing something so significant should have been done in a private, more empathetic setting with a small group of people who can ease you through the process. But that's what I get for following a link on Facebook.
+Ariana “Grande” Butera I agree I feel like it was a bit of a waste too. She ended up only looking 30 not 23 and I feel all they had to do is maybe give her a small trim and then style it differently and change her clothes.
Giving a 23 year old a BOB....of ALL the hairstyles in the world...a Bob?....Are you kidding me. That haircut made her look way older than a *23 year old girl*. They should have just styled her hair at the length her boyfriend cut it and leave it at that. They could have styled it and made it wavy or put curls in it....anything but a bob. That type of style in my opinion is too mature for a 23 year old girl, it's more suited for an older woman....i'm just saying. It's a good thing hair grows back. Don't get me wrong...her new hairstyle does not look bad on her...but I think it made her look older than a girl who is just 23 years old and the style is more suited for a mature woman. That's all.
yeah wtf......as I said in another comment, it's like she's a kid who got pushed in front of class and got all her hair cut off in front of everyone....
Tyra's jealous ass cut off waayyy too much :( Mary's hair could have at least been shoulder length or waist length & She was being extremely rude through out the whole process with those unnecessary remarks twwwww
DeterminedKez I agree with you. GOD said long hair is a woman's glory. Given to her for a covering. Now with the buster brown do, I guess banks is happy. I bet she kept that hair too.
Looks 40 no matter what...but she might have a soft and sweet personality, which makes her attractive. Maybe shoulder length layered cut with middle parting would have looked better... just saying. Her hair is limp. Needs the bounce with a layer cut.
My God that was such a humiliating way to do that. The girl was practically forced to cut her. And the audience is stupid if they think she is 40, my first guess was 25.
How was she forced to cut her hair when she was the one who went on to show? If she didn't want to cut it she wouldn't have went on. And really, "humiliating", 😂😂God u guys are dramatic!!
JJ Carle i really agree with you, sereously... I dont get it, why some people are like why she is forsed? Something like that. But i think she really looked old.
i hate the way Tyra was clearly forcing her to like that hairstyle when clearly the poor girl hated it. her face was clear. i feel sorry for her so much :(
this haircut is too mature looking for her age. still she looks older. the color is really nice but i wish they cut it medium length and just curled it.
plus they put makeup on her and changed her clothes. what happens the next day? when she goes back to her regular clothes and no makeup. THEN she will really look 40 w/ that grandma haircut :( lol
kat 1 ,that's a super precision Bob cut expertly, it's classy and sharp. her long hair was so straggly,thin and dull, it made her look unhealthy. Her hair now is vibrant and sleek.
Sherry Salzman The coloring I'm sure had a big hand in that "sleek" look. How good will it look when the coloring has grown out, assuming she otherwise keeps the same style cut?
The ladies cut your hair and look cute dude or whatever your user is: Stop telling women how they should wear their hair in the comments. Because that's exactly what it is, THEIR hair. Not yours. Don't tell people what to do with their bodies, they can wear it long, they can wear it short, but the fact of the matter is: nothing a youtube commenter says is going to change their decision and it shouldn't, because it's their hair and they will do what they want with it.
also an ugly pantsuit ! why didn't they put on a youthful cut femine sundress or cordoroy pants with lacy ruffle top, Jean vest and scarf? Alot of choices but a drab granny tank and black pants ?
I couldn't disagree more this haircut is to drastic they have gone from one extreme to another from desperately needing to be cut and styled to chopping practically all of this poor girl's hair off have they never heard of happy medium they could of had at the very least left the hair shoulder length hair with layers some vibrant colour would of done wonders this poor woman look traumatized the boyfriend looked horrified how is she meant to style this short hair like that is much harder to style she wont be able to put it up i wouldnt be surprised if she delayed the wedding until her hair grows so she can truly feel like a beautiful bride not a plain Jane
Her bob definitely makes her look 40. God, I can't stand how Tyra was making fun of her- and they may seem like little comments and it's all fun but it's so obvious that girl is shy and unconfident because people always probably point out her hair. Seriously, if anything was making her look old it was those clothes she had on. If she wanted something shorter I would've given her a nice shoulder length cut not a freaking bob.
Her beautiful long hair just needed a waist length cut to even out her scraggly ends. There was no need for that short ass haircut. It just made her look the same age. She needed side swept bangs to soften the face and layers to frame it. Even I know that. Nice try, Tyra.
True, basically she only look younger cause they changed her outfit and added makeup. My hair goes to about my hips and I look ~20, I really don't think the hair matter. She didn't look happy from what I've seen, too dramatic maybe for a first cut.
Dawn Petras I totally agree! we are told it is our covering as well. my hair is past my hips. if I got cancer and lost my hair I would feel horrible wearing a wig made from someone else hair because they would have to cut their crowning glory for me. I am currentlybeing monitored for cervical cancer and I have had think about what I'd do. my sister in law did loose all her hair from chemo. she never bought a wig. she didn't feel it was right to have someone else do this. I don't criticize the thesd people for wanting to help someone though.
This upset me. She shouldn't have cut that much from her hair even before the stylist got to her. AND, what the heck was up with Tyra pushing their heads together at the end making them kiss. Some couples do not like public displays of affection. Tyra is a jerk.
She never cut it in the 23 years she was alive. If her hair was mid back it could have grown back soon enough, but this could take until she is middle aged!
I'm guessing her hair was as long as it can grow though so it would take 10 years or so to regrown I'm sure. A decade IS a long time still, not like it'll look long again in two years or something.
Since this is her first haircut, they should have left it longer so that when she experiments with it, or maintains it herself, if she wanted to she could pull it up or back into a ponytail or bun or something fresh. She's going to be very disappointed when she first washes it and that shape is not there. Hope she knows how to style it, because if she depends on a stylist, they will try to keep it at that lenght. Hope she likes it though.
I agree too and yeah, I understand, but she's literally had long hair all of her life and she could get more experience if she let's it go through the process of growing and longer and longer to see what every length of hair she can have and experiment on every length. Ik it might probably take a long time but at least it will happen and it looks like she does really love her new look and short hair. I mean come on really, really long hair? I bet she wants to see how it is super short not a little bit longer.
lulu_bee Also, they're taking it off on which length looks best on her, not what she wants exactly. They wanted to surprise her and look she loves it. Really short hair looks really good on her. They could cut it even shorter just off of the best look.
Why cut it that short? If I had to cut her hair I would go no shorter than the middle of her back and I would style it and curl it as well. Plus she has such beautiful hair... Oh well... At least it was sent to locks of love... A good cause.
IrlGeorgi ok sorry I am not dumb people believe that myth. sorry about your hair. In the meantime my mum has passed away nearly 4 weeks ago. I am grieving. So enough with the insults
IrlGeorgi thanks for the condolences but I think you overanalysed my reaction. There are so man products out there now that grow hair thicker such as Fibrology by L'oreal and caffeine 39. I am sure you know about coconut oil and castor oil. There is a shampoo Bar called New by lush, roots hair mask also by lush. They promote growth of new follicles. My late grandmother used to chop my hair off like a boy's because it was easy maintenance. I have damaged my hair with bleaching and dyeing. It takes months to get it healthy again. Xx
TBH the short bob makes her look like she's in her 30s she's on her 20s so she would probably want to look younger so I think waist length would perfect it
Starmy Kc most younger girls these days wear shorter styles. it's not the length but the style. most younger girls with her length hair wear their bobs more tousled.
Starmy Kc If it was a bit longer, then it would have been less traumatizing for her, which would have definitely been a good thing. The short bob makes her look old, if the short hair was just styled in a playful way, that would have helped her look her age
Just because she had such long hair doesn't mean they needed to go so short. They could've left it at chest length so she could style it different ways. What can she do with a short bob? Who even does that at 23?
This is probably the only makeover I've seen that I like. So many times people get makeovers that don't look right, but this lady looks very lovely and her makeover matches her personality. It's a shame they went so extreme cutting her hair so short though. I'm sure there are many beautiful hair styles that are a little longer that could have been less dramatic.
I know long haired women don't have to take part in the show and must admit, not a lover of women having their long hair cut off for entertainment because its a personal and big thing for them, and this poor girl had a few issues meaning she hid behind her very long hair, but what's nice about this is how much her fiancé loves her and wants to set her free. After the cutting when they've finished with her what a stunningly gorgeous young woman she became and her short hair really brings out her lovely eyes. Good show.
So she went from being a grandma to looking like a soccer mom with that boring ass bob hairstyle? She still looks older! If I was doing her hair I would had done a shoulder length layered curled style pretty much close to Tyra's style, much more youthful and fun.
Honestly, I think she was really REALLY strong to let go of that fear of cutting her hair, and cut her long hair in front of a hole lot of people. It may not please all the viewers but I think that she is so much happier and prettier with short hair. After all, hair always grows back. 😘😘😆😆
This is the style I have and have had for the past 25 years, or since I was forty. With very fine thin hair this is an excellent style to bring out a sense of fullness that may not naturally exist. It is obvious that Mary has thin hair and anything longer than shoulder length is going to look dowdy. This cut is the best for her situation.
with a little change in style, suggestions for cute hairstyles, and maybe some definition to her eyes, she could have kept her hair and looked as youthful as she did without cutting it. even if she did get a haircut, they shouldn't have given her a bob of all things. some say go big or go home, but with her situation they should have played it safe. she looked uncomfortable so hopefully she came to like her hair because that seemed really stressful, especially after stating that her hair was her security blanket.
why a bob? that is extremely short. why not to her waist line and curl it. it would look beautiful so at least she doesn't feel sad. she was just smiling but that smile was not truly her happiness. she just did it for her fiancée. oh, well, hope to enjoy her short hair.
Eric Moreno of course she was she had her hair for a long time but she knows she looks better with it and no she might not keep it that way but it opens her up to new things and makes her look so much better.
***** How does looking 10-15 years older with the bob equal looking better? All they had to do was cut off the ends. They in no way needed to chop it off so short. Just because you don't like long hair on yourself does NOT mean it automatically has to look bad on everyone else dude. The poor girl just needed to take better care of the ends and she;d have been find without the cut.
I feel that Tyra's heart was in the right place, but the delivery was wrong. The audience's opinion and gasp of disbelief and disgust really weren't necessary. Yeah, I get it. Truth hurts, but still..... Anyhoo, I'm glad she let the lady's fiance cut her hair, and Tyra's word of encouragement to the lady, before he cut it was nice. Her overall, her makeover was great.
i dont think the hair was the problem maybe if she was dresses proper and had on descent make up she would of looked better her hair was just dull looking needed some shine
The makeover really did suit her, but for someone who has had long hair all her life they could have started off with a medium length bob at least ! And Tyra what was that at the end :/
WAY better! Could have gone a few inches shorter but definitely a good way to go with the sudden drastic snip all-at-once, otherwise she might have chickened-out and that would have been tragic. Stunning new look! She is gorgeous!!!
jesus....that was so degrading to watch. Like most of this was actually make up that made her look younger as well, if cut onger and styled she still would have looked younger.
Although I love super long hair, I have to admit the new hairstyle suits her better. She looks like a gorgeous young woman now, with that extremely long, untidy hair she looked like a homeless person.
I don't think they should've cut her hair that short :I they should've cut it to a little above halfway down her back and give it a good bit of shampoo conditioner, dyed it a nice natural shiny brown, styled her fringe and then curl her hair into beach waves . Her hair looks too boring like that :B
The white outfit made her look way more old and the make up helps too. It wasn't just the hair at all and they could have kept it a lot longer but it's tv of course.
***** Actually I DID cut MY hair off a couple years ago as you think everyone should. It looked horrible. I will NEVER have it so short again. And I am very much NOT a hippie. I mean my hair was never as long as hers was but I was just able to sit on it. It has FINALLY grown back and hasn't looked so GREAT and been so HEALTHY since I was a little kid. I can also testify that it does not make you look older. I'm 22 and people constantly think I'm 16-17. PS. If you think long hair equal hippie, you need a dictionary.
No, that is not why I hate HAVING short hair. The cut itself was great. And the salon was my favorite place and favorite people. It just looked bad on me. Short hair makes my face look fatter and my hair look thin and doesn't compliment me at all. And I had only cut it that time to see if I would like it. I didn't. It was short for a few years while it grew back and I hated it the whole time. I tried to like it, but I couldn't. Short hair is an awful look on me. I have NO interest in looking so ridiculous again thank you. My hair will stay nice and long. Not only is it healthier than ever but you can see just by looking how nice it is. Not to mention I've got super curly hair and if it's cut too short, it poofs up almost into an afro so I was having to straighten it every day. Do you have any idea how bad that is on your hair? Short hair= super dead hair. Long hair= Healthy and lovely hair. Also. I'm not saying short hair looks bad on everyone, either. One of my best friends has shoulder length hair and the other a pixie cut and it looks great on them.
I wish I could wear my hair like that. I like short hair. I wear my hair short because it's just easier to take care of. I have naturally curly hair and it's frizzy and in knots all the time. I'm constantly pulling knots out. There's no brushing or shampooing them out. The color was great, too!
Melinda Kirkley I have the frizzy, curly hair problem too! I really hate it! I am trying to find a look that suits me, but nothing works.:( And a bob like that certainly would not fit my face because I have a round face, it doesn't look right.
I agree she needed her hair cut, but not because it was too long, but because it was scraggly at the ends. They could have cut only one or two feet from it, give it some loving and it would look healthy, and then she'd look much better. The outfit she had on is something I'm sure she doesn't normally wear. But her in nicer clothes, and already she'll look her age. I have to admit the bob's not looking great on her.
It's quite despicable that Tyra only gave her the bob because she knew it would add to the shock factor. From super long to super short. She didn't help this girl out because she wanted to, if she truly did she would have given her something a lot more longer and easier to maintain. Poor girl is also going to have her roots showing because of the stupid hair dye they added. And the kissing scene was just... shame on you Tyra.
she looks amazing i think the bob haircut looks very cute on her and does make her look very youthful and happy she looks like she's glowing actually :D
Notice how they dyed her hair, put a bunch of make-up on her face, took her out of the plain white potato sack outfit and put her in a form fitting outfit, then made her wear purple. They could have done all that to make her look younger without cutting the hair.
I would've cut it differently. she still looks like thirty. The bangs aren't very good either. If her bangs were longer then I'd cut the back to her nape and have long side swept bangs or an inverted Bob would look nice too. That hairstyle though is very old fashioned. The bangs though. They really don't look that great with short hair. Longer bangs look better with bobs. I don't like bobs in general though. I really don't like short bangs either. My bangs are too short right now and the longest part almost reaches my upper lip. most of it reaches to the bottom of my eye and the shortest to my eyebrows. They don't look bad in my opinion, but they're still too short. I'd rather the shortest be to the center of my eyes and the longest a bit past my chin. the sides in front of my ear to be slightly longer than my ears with the back cut slightly past my nape and in a thin shaggy manner would be nice. At least for me. I'm not buzzing the back of my head again though. I didn't hate it, but I got a lot of criticism and it didn't look how I wanted it. It was supposed to be a woman's punk cut that gradually got longer the further you went up with long bangs, but she didn't do it right and it looked very masculine. It was supposed to look punkish, not boyish or lesbian. To be honest I was criticising it too. It made me look like I was transgender. That is the last time I'm going to trust her with any sort of alternative hair style. I'm not mad at her because she probably hasn't had much experience cutting hair in an alternative style. Next time I cut my hair though (which will probably be next fall), she won't be doing it. She probably won't be able to do it how I want it now. she's better at doing more feminine cuts though. But as soon as my hair is how I want it, I'm dying it black.
Only an old lady would think an attractive young woman looks better in hair that short. Cut it to the middle of her back, yes, but over her shoulder's no, that makes her look 40.
