My bangs are driving me
nuts--they've gotten insanely long and I haven't had time to go in
for a trim. For the last couple of days I've been toying with the
idea of grabbing a pair of scissors and snipping them myself. I've

Have You Ever Wanted To Cancel a Date Because of a Bad Hair Day?
I'm cranky--I have a date tonight (my fifth with a gentleman we'll call Mr. Chill) and I am having the worst hair day of my life. Seriously. I've tried everything, but it's no use--my waves are crazy and my bangs just will not behave. I actually had a fleeting thought that... Read More »

The Secret To Taking Off Dark Nail Polish
Backstage at one of the New
York runway shows, I spotted a manicurist doing something I had
never seen before: Taking dark black nail polish off a model's

E-mail Diamant Rouge Toothpaste: A strange-yet-effective teeth whitener
I immediately tracked the stuff down: It's called Email Diamant Rouge, it's French, and apparently, it's been around since 1893. Guess teeth whitening isn't such a modern phenomenon. Upon...
