Starting over isn’t easy or cheap. Kate Gosselin can attest to that. That’s because the new hair Kate got for the cover shoot of PEOPLE cost her $7,000.
“My haircuts are $950,” Ted revealed. “The color would have been about $500, and the extensions, which were great length extensions, would probably cost about $5000.”
Kate was excited about getting a new look to start off the new year, but was a little nervous about changing her trademark bangs. “We were together for about 20 hours and I would say 15 of those hours were working on Kate trying to convince her to cut her bangs,” Ted joked. “I felt like she was hiding behind that front piece.”
Despite the hesitation, he said the mother of eight “was really open to the entire process.” Ted summed up his vision for the TLC star: “I wanted to make sure I took her from being really ordinary to really extraordinary!”
Here I thought my $20 haircut was fancy. I guess I should have known I wasn’t getting the celebrity treatment when my “stylist” didn’t say anything about “bringing my hair from ordinary to really extraordinary” and, instead, grunted, sprayed me in the face with water and gave me the exact opposite of what I asked for.
