Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
But for Make It Better’s Best of 2014, we wanted to build a little consensus. So we asked you to share your opinions, from your favorite pizza to your preferred spin class; from the hair salon you most frequent to your go-to spot for gala wear.
And, wow, did you answer!
