Hot hair cuts – would you dare?
BY CHRISTINE CROSBY
I’ve been seeing some pretty cool haircuts lately (not to mention, pink, purple and other wild hair colors) and now I’m feeling itchy to get a new cut. I don’t want to look like I’m trying to imitate my granddaughter (who has long luscious hair) or even my teen grandson (a natural red-head with the latest cool cut), but I must say, they do have an influence on me. So, we thought we’d take a peek at some of the newest styles. Which is your fav?

We can follow the trends or go for something traditional; whatever makes us feel good and flatters us most. Read more
