Yesterday and again today (Fri. 1-21), it looked to me as though Katie cut some of the length off, maybe 3-4" It's a longish bob, with bangs still swept to side but chopped at about nose length. Why, if she's trying to grow them out, did she get them cut? It's that awkward growing out look that most women try desperately to avoid. Sorry--not smart enough to find pic from the show today. Basic style is OK, though it's identical to that sported by 2/3 of the world's female on-air personalities. I personally think she should have stayed with the longer length. And, long or short, two words: Bangs. Please! |

Here's the most recent picture I could find: http://www.gogomag.com/cgi-bin/tvheads_viewer.pl?tvheads24663&24663&Katie - http://www.gogomag.com/cgi-bin/tvheads_viewer.pl?tvheads24663&24663&Katie Is that it? Or is it shorter now? |

| I saw her this morning and thought she had gone shorter too. (Today show was pre-empted on the west coast yesterday for inauguration coverage). I am pretty sure the picture is from before the cut. |

its just above her shoulders now.. and i too can not for the life of me figure out why she keeps her bangs cut to an "I'm growing them out" length. I guess so she will have a reason for tilting her head all the time! ------------- |

Well, I find those bangs -- and the head-tilting -- quite sexy.  Maybe she feels the same way?

Why all the talk about Katie? She has looked no better or worse than 90% of the women talking heads on the news for a long time. She is clearly afraid to allow her hair to attain a sensual length, so I've lost interest.  BobP.S. Where is Gord?!! His humorous takes on hairstyles are sorely missed around here.

I'll tell Gord you said hi. Katie is one of several morning news Talking Heads that have new hairstyles or trims. We've already talked about Natalie Morales, who doesn't look any better now than she did the day of her haircut. Diane Sawyer looked beautiful with her hair looking longer and fuller a couple days ago, but today she looked like the same old Diane. And Robin Meade of CNN Headline News seems to favor a new style of late: http://www.gogomag.com/cgi-bin/tvheads_viewer.pl?tvheads24865&24865&Robin - http://www.gogomag.com/cgi-bin/tvheads_viewer.pl?tvheads24865&24865&Robin I prefer her with straight hair http://www.gogomag.com/cgi-bin/tvheads_viewer.pl?tvheads24900&24900&Robin - http://www.gogomag.com/cgi-bin/tvheads_viewer.pl?tvheads24900&24900&Robin but she's in my current top five Talking Heads: 1. Julia Huddy of Fox News. She's custom made from head to toe. Great looks, hair and a dynamite personality (although you never know which way she's going to part her hair). Catch her Saturday and Sunday morning's Fox and Friends show. Well worth the effort. http://www.gogomag.com/cgi-bin/tvheads_viewer.pl?tvheads24930&24930&Juliet - http://www.gogomag.com/cgi-bin/tvheads_viewer.pl?tvheads24930&24930&Juliet 2. Ann Curry of NBC, although naturally she'll be bounced off my list as soon as she gets her gorgeous hair hacked off. 3. Robin Meade 4. Rudi Bakhtiar, although she hasn't been on much lately. 5. Neida Sandoval, the news chick from Univision's morning show, "Despierta America." I can't understand a word she says, but she's nice looking and has attractive, shoulder-length hair. She just took the blonde streak out of her gorgeous dark Spanish hair. Formerly members of the top five: Katie (the quicker her hair grows, the quicker she returns to the list), Carol Costello of CNN (her hair is a lot thinner than it used to be) and Lucy Noland, who used to work in Detroit and now is in New York. How is Lucy doing out there? We miss her. |

Sorry, that's Juliet Huddy, not Julia. Here is her hair parted the other way, FYI: http://www.gogomag.com/cgi-bin/tvheads_viewer.pl?tvheads24732&24732&Juliet - http://www.gogomag.com/cgi-bin/tvheads_viewer.pl?tvheads24732&24732&Juliet |

| I'm with Bob S.....why is everyone so up in arms with Katie Coric's hair? She is OK looking, but not all that glamourous in my opinion (note: I said MY opinion, which may vary from others). |

Katies hiar was parted on the other side this morning, flipped up in the back and her "bangs" were sprayed to the side just aross her forehead. Looked quite nice! ------------- |

| I noticed that also. Was an improvement. Unfortunately, because she usually wears her bangs the other way and falling down - her head tilt was going the "old" way. Katie - don't tilt your head - it is very annoying! |

| I find the tilt quite enchanting. As I said in the Ann Curry strand, I think Katie's hair looked like crap today. |

| I saw Katie's change today and (to my own surprise) thought it looked pretty good. To me it definitely is cuter than her standard flat straight look, and something about the part being on the other side, the style, the shorter length and the slight flip makes her look younger. It isn't the style I'd pick for her (bangs, Katie, bangs and layers!) but I still think it's a change for the better, and I'm glad she's experimenting. |

Yea, today was my first time seeing it and I thought it looked a lot better than it did before. More updated, although her outfit wasn't too great. She's trying with the bangs, you can tell. Probably not long until she goes for it. ------------- |

Seriously, y'all think this new look http://www.gogomag.com/cgi-bin/tvheads_viewer.pl?tvheads25099&25099&Katie - http://www.gogomag.com/cgi-bin/tvheads_viewer.pl?tvheads25099&25099&Katie looks better than the old look? http://www.gogomag.com/cgi-bin/tvheads_viewer.pl?tvheads24663&24663&Katie - http://www.gogomag.com/cgi-bin/tvheads_viewer.pl?tvheads24663&24663&Katie I guess I like what I like and you like what you like. Maybe the new look has more style to it, but it's going to take some getting used to for me. If I had my way, Katie would look like this every day: http://albums.photo.epson.com/j/ViewPhoto?u=4238813&a=31403160&p=69430060 - http://albums.photo.epson.com/j/ViewPhoto?u=4238813&a=31403160&p=69430060 (Thanks to Jerky Flea for the link September 2004) |

Hi Kramer, I do this this look is better than the one just before it. Of course, neither would be near my first choice for Katie, but given the choice of these two I like the new look. Still, I think the longer-haired one you like has enough body and shape to beat 'em both! |

| I like the new look btter. It opens up Katie's face. |

The first two looks really don't do anything for Katie. She needs to go back to the longer look, or shorter look. This in-between length (anything between top of shoulder and just below chin) really doesn't cut it!

So, during an interview this morning on Today, Katie's hair in front fell a bit...revealing that she actually has bangs cut (i.e. short pieces near eyebrow length). So, this last trim or subsequent additional trim a couple of days after the last trim is why she's trying this new style. There must be some other layering added in addition to the bangs. What I don't understand is why she isn't wearing the bangs AS bangs and is insisting on keeping the severe and awkward looking opposite side part and bad version of the flip at the bottom. It's like she forgot how to style it or there's a new stylist on the show that had no clue what it should look like or how to do it. I'm at a loss. How do you get get virtually the same haircut you had a year ago and wore for several months, but seemingly forget how to style it? What's up with that? As usual, JF P.S. Is it me or does it look a bit darker too? Katie had been getting really blonde there for a while. ------------- 3 pm is simultaneously too late and too early to start anything. |

I know this is a "old" thread but I was home on 2/22 and had a chance to see katie and her shorter hairstyle. Let me start off by saying I'm a huge fan of hers and think she is very attractive. I was looking forward to seeing her with shorter hair, but I must say, maybe it was the outfit she was wearing, the glasses and the way her shoulders are starting to hunch over, She looked very old to me yesterday. I guess it will happen to all of us someday. ------------- Stephanie |

| I'm still having a hard time getting used to her hair being parted on the right instead of the left. And I agree it makes her look older -- probably not what she was going for since she was/is dating a younger guy. |
