Lisa's new style is "supermodel with a twist," which I guess means she's served with a lime. I mean, seriously, what the hell is that? Jay tells her that he wants her to evoke the early supermodels. She loves her new look, but I think she kind of resembles a blonder Sue Ellen Ewing. Like, kind of manly and haggard.
Sarah thinks she looks a million times better with her shorter asymmetrical haircut, and she is right. Her look is "Ralph Lauren chic," and her photo is actually pretty gorgeous.
Kim's look is "femme boy," and she says that she's the only person who gets to stay within her personal style. She seriously looks like a red headed Friedrich from The Sound of Music.
Jayla's new look is "Yves St. Laurent chic" even though she looks like Elvira, Mistress of the Dark. She interviews that she wanted long blonde hair, but is happy that she at least got the long part. The hair doesn't look great on her -- it's way too heavy. ["I totally agree; she looked better before, when she basically had the haircut Sarah ended up with post-makeover." -- Wing Chun]
Diane's style is "dressy casual," a.k.a Lane Bryant.
Coryn's style is "sophisticated." She says that she never would have thought blonde, but likes her makeover overall. And I have to say that I do like Coryn, and I had a good hearty laugh at the rumors that she was actually a man, but I have never seen an individual look more like a drag queen than Coryn does with that long blonde weave. It's kind of freaky. And what's even freakier is that in her after picture she's a dead ringer for Tyra. You make your own connections there.
Kyle's new style is "Chanel with an edge." I have to say that, with the exception of Lisa, I don't think these girls have any idea what this stuff means. Jay tells her that she's fashionably casual, and she says that she loves her finished makeover. The photos are kind of bad, but overall I guess it's good even though I liked her with the blonde hair.
Nik is "bohemian chic" and looks AMAZING. She has her hair curled up all around her and it's so cool.
Ebony interviews that it took thirteen hours to get her braids done. Her new style is "sophisticated with an edge." And I honestly can do no better in my description of Ebony's new look than quote the forum poster who said that she looks like the black guy from Color Me Badd minus the moustache. Except I would delete the "minus the moustache" and add that I would not like to sex her up. But seriously, that nails it. Ebony loves her look.
