Pink hair for breast cancer research

That's me! I went to DEX New York, a salon and studio in NYC frequented by Tyra Banks, to get a $10 hot pink hair extension. 100% of the proceeds go to The National Breast Cancer Foundation. You should get one, too! It was totally painless, took about five minutes once I was in the chair, and they gave me a pink cupcake. If you're in NYC, this is a great way to participate in Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Read on to see how it looks!

DEX New York is a terrific salon, photo studio, and mineral beauty product producer. Their Fashion District location has been visited by Tyra Banks, Victoria Beckham and comedian Lisa Lampanelli to name a few! They were nice to me even though I have a cheapo haircut and I bet they could tell.

The Breast Cancer Awareness Month pink extensions are available through the end of October. Call 212.643.3188 for an appointment.

See the gallery to watch stylist Naomi Porto put in the extension and see the final result!
