Alyssa Milano

Apparently she was on Wendy Williams the other day and even though they got into the "breast feeding in public" topic later in this video:

they first showed a picture of Alyssa with her very short pixie from 15 years ago. Alyssa laughed and said something to the effect that her short cuts get shorter and that she'll probably look like that in a couple of months.

So, here's my unsolicited theory and prediction...

As you're probably aware, during pregnancy, women's natural hair loss slows dramatically. Shortly after childbirth, nature plays catch-up and the shedding increases at an equally dramatic rate. All the hair that was supposed to fall out and didn't, now does.

When Alyssa started making public appearances again after her baby was born, we all commented that her hair, when worn down, looked "off". It had that cotton-candy look of fine hair that had been fluffed up to add volume. And Alyssa does not have fine hair.

So, my theory is that she finally punted and decided to cut it short because she just couldn't get it to look decent with out WAY too much effort or simply wearing it up. That's also why I think she went short, but not REALLY short. The way this style is cut (full on top, still covering the ears), it will be much easier to grow out than a full-blown pixie. That's not to say she won't go shorter; most women do when they go short after having long hair for an extended period. But they also then tend to grow it back out.

Thus, on to my prediction...

My guess over the next few months, you'll see Alyssa stay around this length or possibly go even shorter. However, by mid-year at the earliest and end of year at the latest, you'll see her start to grow it out again. That will be about the time the regrowth of hair will have balanced out the hair loss.

I do, unfortunately, think the days of Alyssa rocking a mane around mid-back or so are past. For this cut to grow back out below her shoulders will be about a two year process. I definitely think she will be back below shoulder length, though. So, Kramer can look forward to 2018 for Alyssa to have fully returned to her long locks.

Hey, if Debra Messing can pull it off at 47(!)...

As usual,

That's the spirit!

what the...?

My biggest takeaway from this style is that the long bangs part of her new short 'do don't work for her. She looks better with it more off her face. Which, ironically, was indicative of her long styles, whether down or up...

I like it a lot. It's slightly ridiculous, yes, but after so many years of flattened, volume-less, relentlessly-bland hair, I'm grateful for a style at the opposite extreme. It's got volume and attitude, and it's kinda cool. And it's Alyssa, so you know she'll try something different tomorrow.

Update, looking good

Mmm, this is a tough one.  I hate the combed back look (a la megyn kelly), but I also don't like how heavy the one side is.  Just give me some scissors and I will fix it!

Is it just me, or does that outfit make it look like she has the shortest torso on earth?

I really didn't mind her cropped hair from years ago, but this is the pits. Worst ever.
