Behind the Scenes of a T.V.Anchor

Throughout the years I have gotten a lot of comments from people about my appearance. Usually, it's about my hair and it's not really a compliment. It's more of a "Oh, your hair looks like a bowl or how much hairspray DO you use?"

Unfortunately, I don't have someone here at the station putting on my make-up and fixing my hair everyday, so I appreciate the feedback~ even when it's a little strange. I just had to share a letter I got today from a viewer. I got some bad news this morning and was a little down in the dumps when I showed up to work. Then, I saw I had a letter. How exciting!

Dear Jen,
You are a very talented girl and I watch you often. (Isn't that sweet? )
I love your new hair style and it is such an improvement over the straight hair that made your face and neck resemble a broom handle.
Happy Rails,
Carroll

My new nickname at the station is Swiffer! I hope this brightened up your day! We laughed so hard we started crying!

Thanks to Photographer Gil McIntire for snapping these shots of my hair for the out-of-towners-Too funny! What a day!
