[Ny Minute Now]

Here's my latest "Beauty in the Big Apple" piece, written when I was seriously considering going circa 1995 again and cutting my hair supershort. And at the last-minute I backed out—out of laziness. I figure, for me to not look like a boy (again), I'll have to be extra-diligent with the makeup routine. Ack!

FOR the first time in years, I seriously don’t know what to do with my hair. Perhaps this is because I’ve tried practically every style, trick and twirl in the book. From a cool Koreanovela digital perm to a flapper-inspired crop, and, later on, a channeling-Anna-Wintour bob, my head has gone through so many changes (including a brief stint with an ‘updated’ mullet) that now I’m stumped as to what my next mane move should be.
