...feistiness, avoiding annoying cuteness. Heather Thompson, as Betty Rizzo, was another standout, her sweet voice countering an abrasive character. Thompson carries the one serious scene in the play with convincing emotion, showing that her character is more than a wisecracking teenager. Also noteworthy were Frenchy (Jen Bell), a beautician run amok; the always hungry Jan (Susan Gray) and irritating cheerleader Patty Simcox (Tina...
...many difficulties faced by women prisoners have no parallels among men. While male lockups may train inmates for such high-paying trades as welding and mechanics, courses in women's facilities still concentrate on homemaking or low-paid skills like beautician and launderer.

Then there's the Garden Grove, Calif., teenager convicted of shooting her stepmother to death. Now she claims...
Vincent was one of the first to try the computerized makeup system after it was set up at Bullock's. Sitting in front of the computer, she was photographed by a video camera mounted above it and immediately saw her image projected on the screen. Then her beautician, using a stylus to choose brushes and colors from palettes displayed across the top of the screen, made over the image of her face to achieve three different "looks" (two for daytime, one for evening). These were then compared with the original on a four-part split screen. "It's fantastic," says...
