Making Up in L.A.

March 14, 2009 by WendyB

Stephanie Daniel, the hair/makeup artist who did my Oscar-night look, was wearing kickass boots that evening. I had to take a picture. I didn’t get a good picture of the rest of her, which is unfortunate because she’s very beautiful. I’ve worked with Stephanie many times. One thing I enjoy about her, in addition to…

Favorite Hair

March 4, 2009 by WendyB

I got my hair cut yesterday, but didn’t feel like taking a picture. Instead, I’ll show you my 1995 hair. Back then, my hair guru, Keith Carpenter (who also did my hair yesterday), and I decided I needed the curliest perm possible — a chemically-induced ‘fro. Keith’s colleague did the perm reluctantly while Keith and…

The Weather Gods Are Angry

February 25, 2009 by WendyB

I was wondering why it has been so windy and cold New York the past couple of days. It turns out that the weather gods are trying to blow Heather Mills home to England. This hasn’t done Heather’s new hairdo any favors. WHOOSH! Spring won’t come as long as Heather is here, so if you…

New Year’s Outfits

January 1, 2009 by WendyB

For my traditional New Year’s Eve/birthday combination celebration last night, I wore a Clovis Ruffin dress from Shrimpton Couture, my faux-ny tail and earrings of my own design. Gigi the dog wore her own fur coat, accessorized with a giant tongue and a bitchy attitude. UPDATED TO ADD: I’m wearing also the Lagerfeld shoes I…

Taking the Opportunity to Be Lazy

December 22, 2008 by WendyB

Gorgeous blogger Mademoiselle Robot posted an interview with me today, and I lazily thought, “Hey, that could be my post for the day.” Go check it out! I’m happy that Miss Robot used a picture of me wearing my faux-ny tail. I love the faux-ny tail. Having a faux-ny moment with my gorgeous friend Alix…

What Do You Think?

November 30, 2008 by WendyB

Do you prefer my hair straight like usual or wavy like this? UPDATED TO ADD: Darn you, first commenter Cherie of Shrimpton Couture! I figured since my gorgeous sister Terri Berry was wearing red lipstick with black and leopard last night, I’d be able to pass her off as myself. Here she is in all…

Been There, Done That

September 18, 2008 by WendyB

After I posted a picture of my gorgeous client Melissa’s new pixie hairdo, a few peeps asked me if I would ever consider a pixie. Been there, done that! Here’s proof from October 1992. I was being silly with lipstick in the Great Outdoors at the request of my gorgeous friend Phil, who was wielding…

Melissa Goes Gamine

September 7, 2008 by WendyB

When my gorgeous client Melissa told me she had gotten a pixie haircut, I insisted she take a photo. Click to enlarge.Check out Melissa’s previous hairstyle here. I was thrilled by how glamorous she looks. Those big shades are just right with that cut. And I had to agree with her comment, “I think my…

New Girl in Town

September 4, 2008 by WendyB

I went to hairstylist-to-the-stars Keith Carpenter today and told him I wanted to look like “the new girl in town.” What does that mean? We don’t know! Anyway, this is how I look. Not much different, I suppose. It is shorter, though.

Stuck a Feather in Her Hair

June 23, 2008 by WendyB

More peacocks! This hairclip is $62 at Shopbop. Shopbop describes it as “So Stevie Nicks circa 1979,” but to me it’s “So Mahwah High School circa 1982.” I guess we were behind the times. The Shopbop version is all snazzy, with a plastic comb-like clip. That’s not how it was originally done! Back in the…
