Famous enough to have a haircut named after me, that is. Don’t worry, I haven’t gone clinically insane: I’m aware that at the prime old age of 24 there is still plenty of time to have my most fabulous life-changing haircut (LCH). I just doubt it will ever happen.
Now you may be wondering what’s brought on this self-indulgent behaviour – I think, if I’m being honest, it’s envy. Envy of Posh, Aggy and Jennifer Aniston. You see, before their respective LCH’s, I wasn’t, how do I put this, their biggest fan. I wasn’t a Posh wanabe, I didn’t think little known Laura Hollins (as pre-crop Aggy was known) would steal Kate’s reign and I thought Phoebe was funnier than Rachel. What changed?
The hair, that’s what. And in turn, their life. Dramatic? Oh, okay, a tad. But admit it, if it wasn’t for the “Rachel”, do we think Jen would’ve landed Brad? It set her up for life (even if she did turn her back on it…note to my future LCH: I would never treat you so badly). And would Aggy seriously have been able to knock Kate off her throne without the Edie crop? Heck a loser boyfriend and drugs scandal tried and failed. Not Aggy though. And Posh, don’t even get me started on Posh, not one, not two, but ongoing LCH’s. Dare I say it (and I never thought I’d utter these words) but she’s my idol.
So over the time we chat (and chat lots we will), expect me to be following in Victoria’s footsteps. I, beautyheaven’s Sarah, stand before you today and pledge to become a hair chameleon. And one day in the future, I will have my very own LCH. I will.
What would your dream LCH be?
p.s. I may not be leading Posh’s LCH life for now but I can channel her lifestyle thanks to our global beauty issue: get jet-set chic and win, check out luxurious Parisian brands and tune into the key season looks from Milan, London and more.
