How'd you get your start on the Guardian Girlfriend circuit?
Oh, it was a long process. I am not lying. There were interviews, and my resume—I lied a little bit on my resume—I said I was good with magic. I don't know if you've seen some of my work; I sort of bump into things, but you know, I get there. And I know hair.

GGs can—on occasion—pop up in the wrong place. What's the strangest place you've accidentally popped into?
What's the weirdest place I popped up in? Oh my goodness, one time, I popped up during a wedding ceremony and I was like "Ta-da!" and the bride was like "What?" and the groom was like "Who are you?" and I was like "Your hair color's all wrong!" Aha! But I caught the bouquet.

What is the GG code? Is there a training manual?
Is there training for being a Guardian Girlfriend? Yes! There is! There's, um, the Gigi bootcamp. Um, my favorite part of it was we got matching sweatsuits, but um, no, it's hardcore. You learn all about hair color, dimension, depth. It's serious stuff.

What should a GG never do?
What should a guardian girlfriend never do? Uh, butt in! Are you kidding? We butt in all the time; that's what we do. Like, poof!—here I am; what are you doing with your hair? Stop it!

Why Nice 'n Easy?
Why do I like Nice 'n Easy? Because it is so easy to get your right color. There's these three tones; you know, you blend highlights and lowlights and shine. It's such a breeze! And you can do it at home and it's affordable and it beats the leading brand.

What does right color mean to you?
What does the right hair color mean to me? It's that hair color with the perfect depth and dimension and shine—you know, that color with a little bit of zush. Say it—zush. Take it to the nightclubs this week. Own it.

What's the worst hair-tastrophe you've seen?
What's the worst hair-tastrophe I've ever seen? Ooh, a hair-tastrophe. I'll tell you what. In the '80s—wall bangs. You know 'em, you saw 'em. Hairspray 'em up, curl the top. Why?

When you see a woman who didn't get her right color, what is the first thing you do/what's your first reaction?
What's the first thing I do when I see a woman with the wrong hair color? I wrestle her to the ground. No, I'm kidding! I say "Don't go outside with that color; let's get your right color!" And I help her. It's what I do, 'cause I'm a Guardian Girlfriend.

What's your favorite GG moment?
My favorite Guardian Girlfriend moments? After getting you your right color? Popping out (snaps) and popping in (snaps) and then I'm back. And then sometimes I'm not. Because I don't get it right always.

Favorite 4 letter word? (like Inside the Actor's Studio)
My favorite four-letter word would be—ooh, hair. Oh! Maybe ta-da. No, zush. No, hair. No, yes.
