This year, in New York, Joy had a lot of her hair cut off.

"1 have it cut every ax weeks, and 1 wash it every five days with an egg shampoo, I put a little conditioning cream which on it while it's wet, makes it easier to pet.
"It's not permed, and I pin it up every other night, I try to get as much sun and wind on it as possible to lighten it."
Joy's mouth durker, her upper lip more emphasised. She has trimmed her eyebrows away ย little underneath, and tinkered them with brown mascaro. And she draws a wide, feathery line long her brown liar with
