There’s a thrill to knowing that girls envy your legs and that a few straight men fancy you over their current girlfriends (you know who you are). But as anyone who has endured plastic surgery—i.e., Michael, Janet or LaToya—knows, beauty is pain. As I prepared for the pageant, I had to ask myself, “What will it take to be Miss Harvard?” More importantly (as my preparations proceeded...

...most of all: the botched make-over. Correct me if I’m wrong, but make-overs are supposedto make the person being transformed better than they were at the outset. I feel like some stylists forget this important fact all too often. They take a nice looking, mild manored “do” and turn her into a tragic caricature of a “don’t” in less time than it takes me to flip, with dismay, to the next page...
