Turban Renewal

Remember, beauty operators - if a coiffure is simply unsalvageable, wrap it up and drape some beads on it. You can tell the biggest old battleaxe in the place she looks just like Sophia Loren and she'll leave happy.

(But when you do it, please don't use the shampoo towels - we're running out!)

a very happy st. paddy's day..

from famous Irish actress Sophia O'Loren

Viva Sophia!

Elizabeth Taylor and Alexandre for "The Taming Of The Shrew"

When Elizabeth Taylor fell dangerously ill during the filming of Cleopatra in London, her husband, Eddie Fisher, asked her what would cheer her up more than anything in the world. The actress's answer was sharp and simple: "Bring me Alexandre!"  Frankly, it's understandable.
