Great to see you come out of your coccoon, Flea! 

Ann's hair was down again today (Tuesday, 5/25).  It looked to me as though it might be an inch or two shorter.

Seemingly less bobbed and under control than usual.

Mind you, here's a back shot which shows how carefully controlled she keeps it.

So consider this a continuation of the orginal musings...
 
- Ann Curry, as noted above has been wearing her hair down lately and it's longer.  It's in that no-woman's land length of just above top of the shoulders to just below them.  You know that length where it can essentially grow for 6-8 months and pretty much look exactly the same until one day - "Poof!" - it suddenly looks long. 
 
But given how much Ann claimed she didn't like her hair really long when she grew it out to donate, I'm not sure of what her plan is here.  Or why she wore it up for two months before wearing it down again.  Or why Ashton Kutcher has a movie career.  But I digress.
 
- Erin Burnett of CNBC seems to attempting to encroach on on Robin Meade's territory as the "Most Professional Looking Stripper in TV News".  And I really do mean that in the best possible way.  Erin's voluminous flips and waves rival any of Robin's curls of late. 
 
-  Continuing on the theme above, oddly, Robin seems to have gone flatter while everyone else seems to be rediscovering big hair.  The flat-ironed hair helmet of whatever length seems to be becoming more the exception than the rule of late.  Check out the aforementioned Erin Burnett, Alex Witt and Chris Jansing of MSNBC (Chris having gone the full blown wavy/curly route this summer), Kimberly Guilfoyle on Fox News, or any other of a number of talking heads that have pumped up the volume. 
 
I'll wait while you go look.  Try www.tvheads.com.
 
See what I mean?
 
And, as a child of the '80s with an affinity for big hair, I can't say as I'm complaining. Smile

LOL.  Finally, someone with wisdom speaks the truth about the King Of Twitter and a generally annoying person who just happens to be in films, on TV and married to Mrs. Robinson Part II.  Not to mention raking in large sums of cash in the process.

Thank you for calling a spade a spade Mr. Flea.

I wish I liked this, as she's had it quite a while, but it just looks really blah all around. Nothing interesting to me about the length, color, cut or style. Here's hoping she's still on the air when she changes it again.

Great photo. Oddly, I saw a photo of her from behind on today's "Today" and I thought her hair looked really even, like she had a trim. This photo must have been taken early in the show. As I've said in the past here, by the time the show ends, Ann's hair is often a mess.

actually looks great on her.
I've noticed a lot of "grey ladies" looking great, Jill Doughty come to mind.

This is one of my favorite subjects,still think it could support a forum of its own.
But in any case I have a couple thoughts.
 
Alex Witt looks great but she has recently found the "Tonette" bottle again and is fairly curly. Does not look bad but I think she looks better mor straight.
 
Maria Bartiromo  really looks great about 30% of the time. Just seems to have to much hair at times. She could be thinking of going a lot shorter. But her hair seems to be very hard to style.
 
Mary Thompson has a great head of hair. Not truly a stlye other than long and curled at the ends, but certainly is very healthy and a great length.
 
Jill Doughty has grey hair and it looks great on her. Perhaps more will go Au Natural.
 
Robin Meade what can I say that has not already been said. She is truly stunning.
 
Carol Costello only gets better as time goes.
 
Kiren Chetry Not sure about her hair always looks very tight, would like to see her with it straight or maybe at least in a pony tail.
 
Natasha Curry for those very curly fans, looks great on her. Not evryone can pull that style off.
 
 Callie Northhagen (HSN) One of the greatest looking very short cuts. She is another absolute stunner. If you are a short hair lover you need to catch her on air.
 
Just a few of my rambling thoughts.

I agree with Ace 1308 on Alex Witt;

- Alex Witt does look better with a straighter look, here's to her going back to a straighter look and letting the layers grow out to one length again.
 
- Mary Thompson - Does look better with her hair longer, I didn't like her bob that she had a couple years ago.
 
- Patti Ann Browne - Looks great with long hair, but has been getting shorter lately. Hope she turns that around and letting it grow out a couple inches.
 
- Alisyn Camerota - Looks great with her hair longer like it is now. Hope she or the scissor happy stylist don't go chopping her.
 
- Robin Meade - On the other hand could stand to cut her hair back to about shoulder length without layers.
 
Hope others will post as well.

Agree with the others about Alex Witt...straigher and my opinion needs to be a little shorter.
Patti...want to like it but don't...think she needs some sort of style...maybe layer, bangs...
Robin - please go with shoulder length cut and get rid of the wispy layers...I also liked her bangs more on the forehead.
As ace1308 said...Callie Northagen's (HSN) short cut is awesome!

A few more thoughts
 
Jessica Yellen great hair, length and color
 
Kyra Phillips Hair is to dark for her.
 
Richele Cary Great hair.
 
Susan Hendricks Great hair, great length and color, just should change her style once in awhile.
 
Alyson Comerota agree with DMB its the best she has had for quite awhile.
 
Christie Paul great look on her, but her hair looks kinda overprocessed.
 
Mary Snow She has been "growing out" for about 5 years. Color seems very harsh on her.
 
Elisibeth Cohen Had very short hair for years. Hard to get use to her with longer hair.
 
Chris Jansing Has been getting longer, looks great on her.
 
I have to say that Robin Meade is one of the few who constantly varies her look. Hair up, down, pony, curly, straight, girl next door, Happy Hooker (meant in only the nicest way ala Julia Roberts).

Just 'cause I have the time, I'll jump in and brain dump a big more.  And if you don't know some of these folks, jump over to tvheads.com or the actual news site and look'em up...

- Melissa Francis (CNBC): Melissa has a great cut and a great blonde color.  Only problem is she should be a brunette.  Nothing to do with my affinity for that shade, but that the blonde is completely wrong for her skin tone and totally washes her out.  This is my premier example lately of how you can have great hair that really should be on someone else's head.
 
- Christie Paul (CNN): Has had the same style since...well...I'm not sure she's ever had a different style.  Sure she could change it up and add bangs or something, but it works for her and there's really nothing wrong with a look that works consistently.  I mean, there's no reason for Cindy Crawford to go short, is there?
 
- Jenna Lee (Fox News): Jenna's got the best red hair in TV news. Sure, that's somewhat akin to saying that Cleveland has the best pro football team in Ohio, but it typically looks great on a daily basis.  It did look better daily when she was on Fox Business before Fox News, but that could be because all the cameras are tuned to best film blonde hair...
 
- Robin Meade (CNN): Had to throw my requisite Robin comment in here.  Looks like her ill-fated short bangs experiment has finally grown out enough for her to push them to the side and have them blend well into her style.  The three or four days where she went with the straight curled bangs across her forehead was a quick reminder of why you rarely see that with long hair anymore because it can looks so disconnected. 
 
Case in point: A friend had hair to mid-back and got her hubby to "trim" her bangs which were about to the bottom of her nose.  Unfortunately, they ended up about an inch north of her eyebrows.  By the time she got to me, I had to take about 3-4 inches off the length to get her to a "Bettie Page" type style and away from a "4 yo found the scissors" look. Smile
 
- Natalie Morales (NBC): Has let her hair grow quite a bit of late and gone with a very layered, almost feathered look.  It sounds dated, but actually comes off more stylish and retro (e.g., like Katie Holmes' ode to Jaclyn Smith).  Check her out when she shows up on Today again soon - if she hasn't cut/changed it.  It's really somewhat of a surprising style, especially in how well it works for her.  One of those, "Oh, that looks a lot better than I thought it would from how you described it" 'dos.
 
- Savannah Guthrie (NBC): Currently sporting a center-parted Rachel.  Her look could be improved in two simple ways: 1) Move the part to the side. 2) Cut it in any other style.  At all.  First time in a while I've seen someone this loyal to a style that is really doesn't work at all for her.  I mean, even Katie Couric realized that her most recent pass at a pixie was...uh...let's say unflattering.  Nah, it actually made her look like she was contemplating becoming Karl Couric.
 
As usual,
JF

Ann Coulter - The long blonde hair does nothing at all for her! It's time she see a hairstylist and get a major makeover and lose a great deal of that mop she calls hair. The length of her hair makes her face look longer then it is to start with. Not sure how it should be cut but it needs to be cut. She is so over due for a new hairstyle it isn't funny. I a say chop, chop ASAP.

I agree it needs to be cut.  It is definitely too long for a guy. Wink

A few more ramblings
 
Christie Paul looking better than ever lately. Actually she did get quite a bit cut a few years ago, but kept the same style.
 
Christine Romans Letting her hair grow some. Looks great on her.
 
Samantha Mohr Weather Channel Another great very short hair lady.
 
Bonnie Schnieder Needs a style. Hair seems very tight.
