Dark eggplant hair will make Elizabeth's blue eyes totally pop. "Taking her lighter would be a typical choice," says Jason Backe, master colorist at Ted Gibson Salon and color director for Clairol. "But dark burgundy is more fabulous," and fits with photographer Elizabeth's artsy profession. Click here for more hair color makeovers.

"I'm ready for something chic," says our fearless Elizabeth, who usually wears a ponytail. So Gibson cut a pony-proof angled bob with sexy, longer layers in front -- a flattering cut for most women since it lengthens the neck and frames the face. Tip: After blow-drying with a round brush (try Frederic Fekkai Large Round Brush, $65), Gibson flips her part to the opposite side for instant volume and lift. P.S., Do you need volume? Keep away from these worst-rated volumizers.

Elizabeth's new cut and color draw more attention to her eyes -- and her brows. Turnbow fills them in and extends the short tail of her brows (from overzealous waxing) a quarter inch using a slant-tip eyeliner brush and a russet-colored powder (try Revlon Beautiful Brows Styling Kit, $19.99).

Elizabeth's bold new look needs a bold red lip, so Turnbow fills the lips with a burgundy liner (try Nars Lip Liner Pencil in Amazon, $19) and tops it with lip balm. She also evens out Elizabeth's complexion with a light tinted moisturizer and lines her eyes with a subtle, olive pencil (like Korres Natural Products Eyeliner Pencil in Olive Green, $16).

"My whole look is one that I would have never imagined," says Elizabeth. "It's so modern and professional -- it looks great! I'm happy to get out of my rut." If you're the one in the rut, here are 19 fast, cute hairstyles mere mortals like us can actually do.
