We asked readers—are you ready for a new summer hairstyle? The response was fantastic, and we selected four great stories.
Each of the 4 winners of our contest had a reason for needing a new look and, boy, did we help them out!
The talented stylists and colorists gave each woman a new look and, in some cases, a new outlook.
