When Dan walked onto the stage on the Rachael Ray Show, he had hair down to his shoulders. His look was straight out of the 1970s and something that you would expect to see in old concert photos from a Led Zeppelin show, not on Rachael Ray. Yet, that’s exactly what happened. Dan greeted the crowd with his soon to be wife, Maria.
Since he was getting married in a few weeks, he figured it might finally be time to change up his style a little bit.
Rachael obviously offered to help. She is well known for inviting people on her show and flipping their looks. This time, she brought one of her favorite stylists, Kyan Douglas, along to help.
“I see where the look started, right?” said Rachael.”Like rock ‘n roll, back in the day. Kind of a mullet gone wild sort of a vibe.”
The younger pics of him showed him rocking a hairstyle that was just as long and crazy.
Now, years later, not much had changed. While some men at Dan’s age might be verging on balding, his hair was the complete opposite. Yes, his style was a little unkempt looking, but he certainly had a lot of luscious locks to work with.
So why did he wait so long before deciding to get a trim?
It turns out, his hair was sort of like his security blanket.
“I just never liked the shape of my head and I never had a short haircut that I liked” Dan explained.
It’s as simple as that.
By appearing on the show, he was putting a lot of trust in the stylist.
If things didn’t work out, it might be a long time until he would be able to grow his hair back out to its former length. However, we were excited to see what they would come up with together.
The two went backstage and Kyan began to work his magic.
When they emerged again at the end of the show, Dan was like a completely different man. The before and after is amazing. He went from burnt-out rocker to fresh and modern, rocking a nicely fitting suit and a new hair-do capable of turning heads.
Kyan explained that what he did was all about structure. He added several defined lines framing and breaking up Dan’s head shape. All the great features of his face that Dan tried to cover up in the past with his long hair were finally visible.
Then they asked Dan’s future wife what she thought of his new look.
“I’m literally speechless,” said Maria. “I can see his gorgeous eyes. So handsome.”
The crowd and Maria both absolutely loved it, and we think you will too. Make sure to check out the final reveal in the video below.
Rachael even added in a special surprise for the couple at the end. She gifted them something that was sure to help make their wedding night and the days after extra special. Hint: it’s not tickets to a rock show. We won’t spoil the secret for you though. Find out for yourself now.
