"I guess the first step is admitting you have a problem: I am a hair control freak. It started with cheap-o haircuts I got in elementary school, when the stylist would brush out my supercurly hair into a frizz halo. (I couldn't wait to get home to wash it and style it myself.) During a rebellious phase in junior high, I cut my own hair, dyed it a few crazy colors, straightened it, curled it, crimped it, and saw it look great, horrible, and everything in between.

But the point is, I would never feel confident leaving such a big decision\u2014not mention a personal one, since the result is, you know, *on your head*\u2014to the general public. I guess that means I'm still a hair control freak.
