Elizabeth Before
"I want a new look that will show I'm a successful professional. I've had the same hair since high school," said Elizabeth, 34 -- total polar opposite of the women in these hair makeovers.

The new hair color:
Dark eggplant hair will make Elizabeth's blue eyes totally pop. "Taking her lighter would be a typical choice," says Jason Backe, master colorist at Ted Gibson Salon and color director for Clairol. "But dark burgundy is more fabulous," and fits with photographer Elizabeth's artsy profession. Click here for more hair color makeovers.

The dramatic new cut:
"I'm ready for something chic," says our fearless Elizabeth, who usually wears a ponytail. So Gibson cut a pony-proof angled bob with sexy, longer layers in front -- a flattering cut for most women since it lengthens the neck and frames the face. Tip: After blow-drying with a round brush (try Frederic Fekkai Large Round Brush, $65), Gibson flips her part to the opposite side for instant volume and lift. P.S., Do you need volume? Keep away from these worst-rated volumizers.

The brow fix:
Elizabeth's new cut and color draw more attention to her eyes -- and her brows. Turnbow fills them in and extends the short tail of her brows (from overzealous waxing) a quarter inch using a slant-tip eyeliner brush and a russet-colored powder (try Revlon Beautiful Brows Styling Kit, $19.99).
