Vicki "Before"

The impetus for Vicki's makeover was a bad haircut. "I'd gone to a new place and gotten the world's worst cut. It was choppy with layers that are much too short," says the elementary school teacher recalling the unhappy experience. When she met Argyle stylist Alec Kara, he concurred. "He told me I can never go back to that person again," laughs Vicki.

Kara lopped off her dry ends and tried to even out the lopsided cut by sparingly adding some long layers into the hair to give it more movement and volume. He also recommended that she take 1000 milligrams of biotin (a b-complex vitamin also known as B-7 or Vitamin H) twice daily to help speed up her hair growth. "He reasoned that the faster my hair grows, the more quickly that bad cut will be gone," says Vicki.
