"I'm desperate for a cut."
Robyn says that she's "a big scaredy cat with my hair but I know I need a cut. I haven't cut my hair in 15 years." O'Connor says since Robyn has a triangular face, lightening up the front layers will bring more definition to her jawline. See his cut next.

The cut
First O'Connor preps her hair with Suave Professionals Keratin Infusion Color Care Lower Sulfate Shampoo, $3.49, and Conditioner, $3.49. O'Connor says while long hair suits Robyn, the ends are damaged, so he cuts off three inches. Then he gives Robyn layers in the front with the shortest layer coming right below her chin. "The layers lighten up her face and help draw attention to her features," he says.
"Robyn has pink undertones, so all I'm doing is warming her up with bronzer on the hollow of cheekbones, temples, and forehead," says Mae. "Her brown hair and brown eyes are blending together so I want her skin to pop." Then Mae applies a pink blush onto the apples of Robyn's cheeks. To give definition to her eyes, Mae uses Too Faced Natural at Night Palette Sexy Sultry Neutral Eyeshadow Collection, $36. She first applies a matte, cream-colored eyeshadow all over her lids. Then tops it with a golden bronze shadow. She then brushes gray shadow into the crease and lower lashline to give a slight smoky eye. Finally, she finishes Robyn's eyes with black eyeshadow on her upper lashline. To finish the look, Mae applied a plum-colored lip gloss.
