What am I gonna do with this?
I'm Christie from Virginia Beach and I'm 42 years old.
I've had this hairstyle for 40 years.
When I was younger, I loved it.
I like the long flowing hair.
Then I just grew it out and kept it that way.
I guess I'll do my normal bun.
I have four boys, ranging from 22 to seven.
Everybody's used to seeing my hair up in a bun.
I never wear it down.
When I have roots, I get it at the grocery store.
I grab a bottle of hair dye, and
I do it after I get my kids to sleep at night.
I don't do haircuts, just never have.
I'm just busy all the time, so when I do cut my hair,
if I cut my hair, I do it at home.
So I just take it up front
with my son's scissors and I just cut.
My husband works out of town,
so I just struggle with the kids
and go, go, go with school and
I don't care about my appearance.
So when I get new clothes, it's from garage sales
'cause my mom goes to garage sales every Saturday.
My priorities are my family.
It'll feel special to me to change up my look
and surprise my husband.
I'm constantly doing things for
everybody else in my life.
I am so ready to do something for myself for a change.
All right, let's make the first cut.
I gotta get back to my job and
you gotta get in the chair.
Do you know what?
Come around here, I want you to help me out.
All right, I'll put the tea down.
Oh my goodness.
Let's take this off.
Then literally gonna take this.
Okay I want you to do it.
(screams)
I know this is like the first time I've gotten to do this.
Oh really?
I love it.
It's so fun.
Give her a round of applause, go ahead!
Go, go, go.
(screams)
(applause)
Oh, she did it, she did it.
(clapping)
Okay, in the chair.
In the chair.
But we're gonna donate this, right?
We are, absolutely, that's gonna go
to a good cause.
Thanks for the the help.
Alright, he's gonna fix it, don't worry.
We like it to be a surprise for them too,
hopefully a happy one.
Let's bring her out.
Come on out.
She's ready and wild, here she goes!
(upbeat music)
(applause)
(whistles)
Wait, wait, wait
Shhh, shhh, shhh, shhh, shhh!
Don't make her cry!
My eyelashes will fall off!
She--
(laughing)
She's wearing leopard but the first thing Chris said
I think is Aaropos ... tiger.
Tiger, exactly!
How do you feel before we show you how you look?
Grateful, I'm so thankful for this.
That's one of my favorite words on the planet.
Aren't we like proud parents?
Yes.
Yes!
You know, you look absolutely stunning.
And you look literally 10 years younger.
Seriously.
Seriously?
Smokin' hot.
Thank you, thank you so much.
Thank you.
Are you ready?
Thank you.
OK.
Turn around and take a look at you.
That's you.
Where?
Right in front of you.
(happy screams)
Oh my god!
(screaming laugh)
(applause)
(screaming laugh)
Aren't you hot?
(clapping)
Thank you so much!
Pretty cute!
Don't cry!
They're going to fall.
Adorable.
You looks so beautiful.
Thank you, so much.
How did you achieve, her hair has such lift
and--
And volume.
I just wanted it to be super versatile.
She doesn't even wear it on the same side.
I flipped it over just before she came out.
I wanted something that was flexible,
kind of sexy, sassy.
To suit her personality, she's got
such a fun personality.
I wanted to bring that out in her hair.
She's such a little spark plug!
Exactly.
So we did some choppy layers in there but
I kept some weight around the front to frame the face.
And you helped me cut the length, so you decided that one.
Yes!
And then we put a bit of a wave in there,
just to give it sort of a rock n' roll vibe.
But she can wear it straight, she can wear it natural.
It really is a versatile hair cut.
You know?
It's beautiful.
You look gorgeous.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
Here's a bonus.
We all get to go home and play hair salon because
Chris brought enough of some of his products
for everybody today.
Everybody.
Everybody gets sone.
Thank you so much to Chris and to Christie.
(applause)
