Back in early 2014 I did my first post on The Today Show’s Ambush Makeovers.  I featured eight before and after pictures from the makeovers on the Hoda & Kathy Lee portion of the Today Show.   The makeovers are done every Thursday in the 10:00 – 11:00 portion of the show.  They usually select two women from the audience and make them over from head to toe including hair, makeup and clothing.    I thought it was time to share some more before and after pics.

Louis Licari and Jill Martin are the brains behind the makeovers.  It’s amazing how they can tweak a hair color to brighten up the face or dress them in an outfit that flatters the figure they were hiding behind baggy clothes.

My favorite thing about the makeovers is seeing the surprise look on not just the family and friends but on the makeover recipient as you will see in the first picture below.  They often can’t believe what they look like when they first see themselves in the mirror.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Don’t you love these makeovers?  Do you have a favorite?

Following is a clip of an actual Ambush Makeover from the show.  Two more lucky women get a well deserved makeover.  It’s a quick video.

I don’t know about you but these Ambush Makeovers give me the inspiration to make a change here and there, whether it be my hair (which I recently cut), clothing or makeup.  Is it time to freshen up your look?
