"My hair deserved its own zip code!"

-Michelle Sanchez, 31

After gaining weight, says Sanchez, "I was literally hiding behind my hair." New York City salon co-owner Edward Tricomi cut 10 inches, added long layers to de-bulk and twisted with a round brush as he blow-dried. "I feel so good about myself now," says Sanchez, "I've lost 15 pounds!"

"I had frizz from hell."

-Alyesha Asghar, 24

"A guy once said I looked like Jimi Hendrix-not good!" A curling iron and shine serum gave her hair sexy shape.

"My hair was perma-fried."

-Alisa Amsterdam, 26

The culprit: daily flat-ironing. Off went the dead ends, on came highlights-they make hair look shiny-healthy.

"Talk about grease!"

-Laura J. Downey, 29
