For many women, how our hair looks and feels is an everyday part of our lives, whether we always want it to be or not. And ultimately, feeling good about yourself is good for your life and who you are. So if having the best hair you can have means you feel better about your day, then go get that hair. And don't feel guilty about it!

I started modeling when I was - not older, but not 12. I have a mom who's a feminist, she's an English professor, an intellectual. She really gave me the equipment to understand that you can celebrate yourself without putting yourself down or needing to apologize for the way you look. I think that attitude is really crucial for a model.

I basically had the same body when I was 14 and that was weird. But I think I had really good parents. I got really lucky.

The way we are annoying them, being playful and having a good time with our body - it's something very important for young women today to have that confidence. I think it's actually celebrating women and their bodies.

A woman talks about having sex, and it's like, well, a guy got to have sex with you, so you're stupid. You've given something up.

That's the one thing that's funny about going from modeling to acting. In modeling, you're supposed to think about what you look like all the time. When you're in front of the camera, if you're not considering that, God knows what the pictures will look like. With acting, you have to completely forget it.

I was born in London and lived there until I was five. We traveled a lot. But really San Diego is my hometown. It's where I went to high school.
