BEST OF 2009

Best of 2009 Interview: Mark Frazier, Bang Stylist

Mark Frazier» EXPRESS: How should I get my hair cut?
» FRAZIER: The long bob is in — it's a modern, polished, professional look. Long fringe bangs are quite current, too. Long curls are also big right now; I think hair has been so flat and straight for such a long time that more amplified curls are on the rise.

» EXPRESS: Is Washington hair too conservative?
» FRAZIER: I do think Washington's conservative, but in a modern, sophisticated way. Conservative doesn't necessarily lend itself to boring. I don't do a lot of super-funky avant-garde hair. People need to be able to translate from the Capitol Hill work environment and ... bring it up or tease it out for the weekend when you want to go out.

» EXPRESS: Who has D.C.'s best hair?
» FRAZIER: I have to say, Michelle Obama is kind of a hair leader. She came into the city and single-handedly made it feel like a fashionable place.

» EXPRESS: Who needs a new 'do?
» FRAZIER: Carol Schwartz is somebody that I feel like, year after year, I've always seen her with the same hair, but I'd love to see her update her look.
