Jack Daw is right, they go for radical changes to get the most reaction. If you've got long hair, they hack it off. If you have light hair, it gets dyed dark... and so on.
I really don't have a problem if someone wants a change, but I get tired of hearing shows slam on people for not doing this or that. It can also turn into a circus that really cements the whole "don't be different!" thing.
That said, I embrace my silver-streaked, long hair, and wear what I'm happiest wearing (and my hubby certainly doesn't complain! ;) ). I definitely don't need a makeover (now, a little cash to buy what I want to wear would be helpful! Ha!).

I stopped watching TV a few years back and do not miss any of that stuff. The other pop-guru thing for a while was to tell people to throw away everything you haven't used in the last year. I'm sure that one probably ruined some lives; lead me, oh, Wise One! Right into the bug zapper.
Still have long hair though, Cynthia.
I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

I quite agree- "mainstream" all the way. Yawn.

I know! I have NEVER seen a makeover show where they didn't want to cut a woman's hair short. I could never be happy with short hair.

May be just an Argyle Jacket and a solid coloured shirt would have been just fine.
