Katie Holmes, the adorable actress who once played Joey on a down home teen show called Dawson’s Creek, what seems like ions ago considering the radical transformation this actresse’s life has gone through since meeting and marrying Tom Cruise, himself a target of a lot of eyebrow raising. She started off, after meeting Tom Cruise, keeping her trademark long brunette locks for a while, then after hanging with the likes of David and Victoria Beckham, decided to lob off most of her hair’s length, doing a sort of modified “posh” haircut, which tons of other women have emulated as well.
She then went to a hairstyle that was very modern and chic, which I actually kind of liked, coloring her hair a darker chocolate color and she must have also gotten some sort of super shine infusion treatment, because her hair, with thick bangs in the front and a length that fell just around her ears. It was a great compliment to her face, which I think is pretty, but not always in the most conventional way.
The blogs have been abuzz about her latest transformation though, mainly because it seems she grew long, luxurious hair overnight – ala extensions in other words, which are incredibly popular in Hollywood when women get tired of their short hair and don’t have the patience to grow it out. How else would Paris Hilton have gone from long to short, to short to long, in such small amounts of time?
Katie Holme’s extensions, I think, look very natural. Whoever did her extensions did a great, seamless job, because you can’t even tell they are extensions, the only dead giveaway is the short time it took her to “grow” this new luxurious length. I for one am glad Ms. Holmes ditched the look she had prior, which I felt was much to old an dowdy for her young, fresh face and naturally pleasant good looks.
