Miriam Clifford: Once, in Barcelona, I saw all these fashionable women with really short hair so I walked in a salon and said, “cut it short.” I spent the last day of our trip crying. I literally could not leave the hotel—I felt so self-conscious and ridiculous! My husband will never let me live it down. The stylist basically gave me a mullet and when I tried to fix it, it only made it worse. Since then I’ve never really let anyone cut it really short.
