Which Hair Color Do You Like Best on Amber Valletta?
Model, actress and mother Amber Valletta's latest hairstyle is bright, blonde, and feathered. I've always pictured her with light hair, but over the last eleven months, she's gone from dark brown to dirty blonde with gingery-colored low-lights.

Everywhere I go, there seem to be "special" pink versions of almost every beauty product and styling tool — even before Breast Cancer Awareness month begins.

Charming as pink products are, I resent some of the more brazenly pink-as-selling-point ones — cynical marketing ploys that essentialize the entirety of the female buying process are not the way to my wallet.

Tips and Tricks for Fine Hair
