‘Do You Recognize Me?’ See This Mom’s Dramatic Ambush Makeover | TODAY

[@BellaFlayme]

First girl's hair color and even the curls were just so gorgeous...a little style, and that killer dress and she was good to go the way she was. Stunning girl.

[@judyberends4586]

Butterfly Journeys Beautiful.

[@silverbells4732]

Butterfly Journeys I also liked d outfit of d first one....and she looked gorgeous. the 2nd mums hair was gorgeous and bouncy and d colour......she looked fab!!!!

[@shellybaby5th]

First girl is beautiful but I think she may be a beard. 🤔

[@picantesworld7723]

I agree they did an incredible job. She looks beautiful! She reminds me of the young Jean Grey from the X-Men

[@beataylorsdeeppinkecstasy9013]

Exactly. If my boyfriend/partner/husband said he'd like to see me with straight hair, I'd tell him what you see is what you get, Honey. Go find someone else if you're not happy with it.

[@checkmattee222]

The first girl when she was getting excited and tried to kiss her boyfriend, and he was just standing there like a log lol 🤣

[@candychelle]

Two clicks on the fast forward button always helps me not be in anguish over hearing the la la song...hope that helps

[@hd-xc2lz]

Well, ya kinda missed out on this one. Hilariously the guest host made no effort to sing the song and Louis ACTUALLY looked slightly miffed.

[@rn6710]

Agreed

[@hey_richard_this_is_tony]

I just mute my computer for 3 seconds :D

[@laurelflint1866]

Ugh... thanks for the tip!!

[@cas4040]

The second lady, that jacket really fit her personality. I wish I could meet her, she seems like so much fun.

[@CRobinson11]

cas4040 I second that :)

[@picantesworld7723]

I love that jacket.

[@amapparatistkwabena]

Both of these women are GORGEOUS!!

[@liwmld]

i don't know why everybody hates the 'louis licari song.' it's fun. who cares if it's silly. i just love Louis. he seems to be such a genuinely warm and caring man.

[@lisadiconti]

I know. It's just a silly song. Big deal.

[@sherifloridagirl9693]

PUT A RING ON IT!!!All I have to say if he hasn’t asked her to marry him. She needs to walk away. She’s absolutely stunning. Love the outfit and the hair!!!!!

[@lovehilaryanne]

I was like, Is it just me or was he gonna propose and chickened out? Or was the comment more of a backhanded PROPOSE TO HER! I really wasnt sure

[@yvonneost12]

christ , how many face lifts has that louie guy had ??? his face never moves LOL

[@annwalsh8079]

Not kind!

[@knelson3484]

This last lady with the curly hair is lovely. She looks good both ways! Her personality is lovely and shines through. ❤

[@johnlamphier9812]

Fist one I'm thinking Kate Middleton

[@scar89]

Exactly my thought! :D

[@TinaLeeJohnson]

John Lamphier Yep my thoughts too!

[@louriewylde9293]

Me toooo

[@god563616]

FIRST GIRL ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!!

[@azabujuban-hito-dake]

god563616 her man too..

[@zaitunkassim2542]

Yes...so beautiful👍👍👍

[@bellabookitty9047]

The 3rd one is my favorite, wow, what a great feminine look for her, she desrves the best cuz she adopted children, she seems like a very loving and wonderful person. Her makeover made me cry tears of joy. Iv'e never cryed about a makeover, but this one touched my heart.💟

[@14100sim]

Sarah looks like the dutchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton to me

[@rundeysyalala]

Hairspa_Haircare a bit of shailene woodley, yes ?!

[@carolinemikolajczyk7826]

You look good, you feel good. It's about you.♥️

[@shicruisin7004]

The 1st girl is very beautiful, but they messed up the hair straightening! It's all bushy & frizzy! I have hair like her's and 1 sec in air that's just a tiny bit moist, and whammo! Afro!! :'D

[@SalveRegina8]

I hate that lalalalalala thing

[@rosemartin611]

I agree😀

[@Hgood1]

Life is so serious these days that I love the whimsy of it

[@vicconyc9611]

I hate it also, so childish Louis should cut back on the Botox...plastic face

[@vicconyc9611]

How about giving Jill and Kathie Lee makeovers

[@adyzubia]

It's so stupid it's funny && annoying at the same time.

[@kimzenk7767]

She looks stunning

[@cas4040]

Her curls were beautiful. I understand wanting a change, though.

[@ingegerdtheresesorrell338]

Yes I loved her curls, but both she looks lovely🤗

[@courtneymayo_]

ahh i love these transformations. they both looked awesome

[@TexPR1]

She looks beautiful!

[@manukanne]

First girl looks like Kate Middleton

[@gailsgig]

Bth of these were really outstanding

[@commenttator9758]

The second one a tomboy look would fit more to her personality. Her younger daughter’s reaction was no reaction.

[@hd-xc2lz]

Yeah, not so sure this look suited her identity, but the point of these is the reveal, showing different possible looks.

[@zumbaem3836]

Lol where was the proposal? I think everyone was hoping for that...

[@jmcast3195]

There was a moment there where she thought he was going to ask her to marry him.

[@FoxyStealth]

I was wondering that too.

[@lisadiconti]

Could you tell me when that was? I missed that.

[@nowvoyagerNE]

1st lady...never ever marry a man who is more vain than you are!!!!

[@jennkim3705]

I agree!

[@hd-xc2lz]

She could do lots better in the looks department, he looks fifteen and with not the most masculine voice. Probably was her high school sweetheart.

[@angelabowman343]

She needs to dump him. He could be a narcissist

[@flfl4871]

Looks gorgeous.

[@arrowsminnesota6846]

Sara is gorgeous!!!!

[@donnav6219]

Very nice. Mom looks good.

[@TexPR1]

Both look fantastic!

[@withgoddess8029]

IMPOSSIBLE to keep curly hair straight

[@genesiabeharry3233]

I just love that outfit Sarah! And the earings too.

[@freefree9961]

Yes that's the girl you've been . he needs to propose or she needs to dump him. Modeling cosmetics needs to sign sara wilson. Robin is the most gracious lady. (not sure the spelling of names.)

[@joymosley8997]

Absolutely

[@angelabowman343]

She needs to dump him. If a guy doesn’t propose after 3yrs- he’s got a problem. Someone as Gorgeous as her!!! Wow. Please don’t waste your time with him- he doesn’t appreciate you

[@adastefaniu2602]

2:19 wooow ❤👍👍👍👍

[@vqn4dream79]

her boyfriend looks worried :D

[@obiedrier4841]

Nope. First girl, absolutely stunning before the makeover. Naturally pretty, beautiful hair. God forbid .......2nd lady, makeover was nice

[@hd-xc2lz]

So first girl should be barred from a makeover even if she wants one? Straightening her hair is some sort of grand betrayal?

[@Slambam73]

Grrrrrr about the straight hair. As a curly girl, I HATE when people (many times hairdressers) pressure me to straighten it. I. Don't. Want. To.

[@kimberlybracken1972]

I need a makeover Louis

[@notsheepish8304]

Lady #2 Tootsie if she had glasses on

[@AvisWrentmore]

He needs to marry her:) she is stunning and they are the cutest couple:)

[@joymosley8997]

Yes absolutely

[@Pumpkintiti]

She's beautiful. However, 5yrs and she's still a girlfriend? Ummm! Not even engaged. What is he waiting for?

[@dmm9714]

To come out

[@FF-hv8kj]

I dated my fiance for 7 years till he asked me to get married. Marrying January 2019

[@withlovefromrussia]

Pumpkin0330 titi Not everyone wants to get married.

[@sakurachristineito6428]

I've been with my boyfriend for 7 years..what should I do guys??? pls

[@sierra8548]

have a conversation about marriage and see where you both are with it. marriage isn't a requirement in life but if it's something you truly want you need to discuss it and be open and honest with each other :) good luck

[@fizzishen5389]

beautiful.

[@beautifuljacarandaa]

Fab!! Loved the new presenter too!

[@missdaisy5736]

Loved both makeovers!

[@lynnettemendozahutchison2670]

Very Nice

[@tinahuttner7280]

Don't even want to know what the jump suit cost😜

[@stacyhigginson170]

Doesn't even want to know how long it takes to get the jump suit off during a bathroom emergency 😂

[@laureningle6457]

Where’s the designer information it should be in the info area don’t ya think? Lol

[@jocyegeorge8478]

That first girl's boyfriend changed clothes for the reveal. :) He looks better, too! :)

[@EB-wl9st]

They should have thinned the eyebrows on the 2nd woman just a bit to feminize her face. She tends to look masculine. The leather jacket was a mistake as it furthered the masculine look.

[@danseabreeze1404]

All she needs is a Harley and some chewing tobacco : l

[@judyberends4586]

Great looks.

[@EB-wl9st]

The 2nd lady looked great, but I feel like they could have done better for her. Her hair color could have been a richer shade than they chose. Her foundation a bit lighter. A smidgen of peach on the apples of her cheeks. Sam jacket, but with black slacks and flats.

[@zacheryalderton9502]

Kathy Lee I am ZACHERY remember me we need to start makeovers back

[@cats0182]

Dating for 5 years? Are they still together?

[@bellabookitty9047]

Btw, love u Al Roker! He's my favorite. He is so funny.

[@hd-xc2lz]

Ughh. Must we all have to pay tribute to her original curls before admitting how gorgeous she looked after the makeover?It's getting awfully knee-jerk with commenter outrage over straightened hair. Try to accept that folks can look great with either, and that the VERY POINT of these makeovers is the stunning reveal for both the makeoveree and their friends and family.

[@darleneachille491]

Wow!

[@abyamibarroa1274]

First girl very very pretty, second lady.. made her look older, ever the clothes....nope!

[@hd-xc2lz]

Regarding second makeover, I'm not sure it made her look older or younger or prettier, just made her look like a different person.

[@FacheChanteDeux]

Sarah is gorgeous. She really hid her looks pre makeover.

[@tammyzydonis2911]

Sarah looks like Kate Middleton now!!! 😮

[@alisonslater4381]

I wish they would use their natural features more to show more “them” instead of always straightening hair and lightening it. I think for the first girl they should have used her curls to their advantage instead of straightening it

[@Noah4evaa]

He is just an average hair dresser at best😏

[@janetbrown7164]

Boyfriend doesn’t look happy about new look. Must be worried that another man who will treat her better will take her away from him.

[@francieodendahl9351]

@John Gault Keep him on his toes😁 she looks beautuful

[@shintardsamarinda3549]

First girl look like super model

[@eliskanameovna5207]

First girl's hair doesn't even look polished! Def some frizz happening.

[@dlighted1277]

Eliska Nameovna Right. Her hair looked dry and frizzy, also the cut could have been better. It didn't have that healthy shine to it. The stylists could have done a better job.

[@Timetraveler1111MN]

Eliska Nameovna I like that. Slick is boring.

[@gailhill1599]

I thought the same thing! Coming from a professional style, cut and color should have had high shine and zero frizz

[@carollopez3182]

she looks like Princess Catherine.

[@jeannes.356]

The first woman turned into Kate Middleton!

[@tinasparkles2434]

For once they didn't cut all her hair off! Success!

[@shellw1276]

I want to know how they got the second woman's teeth to be So White in such a short time!

[@michillene]

Enough with the Lalala crap..

[@Timetraveler1111MN]

I love purple I have a beautiful leather purple Jamey like that but why shorter sleeves!! It’s odd. I think they pushed up the sleeves, arg! I do t like that. Also it’s going back 1989s all scrunched on like 4-6 other people.

[@kimbackus4904]

The 1st girl looks like Kate Middleton (and I wrote this before I saw the other comments)

[@Lommy9999]

He always talks about the weather... and I close my ears when they sing the stupid song.

[@jennymayer7277]

The first girl looked so much younger before the makeover,and why did they take away her lovely curly hair and give her that awful reddish hair color?

[@sharondipity152]

Chokey McKrabz the boyfriend wanted to see her in straight hair and she asked to be a redhead.

[@Timetraveler1111MN]

Pretty red head! Yes more like this on earth, less blondes.

[@knelson3484]

👍 👍

[@kimberlybracken1972]

My favorite you are gorgeous

[@marinad6228]

she looks the same just with straight hair..

[@Catg1222]

The first one looked better with curls.

[@katie4623]

The foundation is too dark for her.

[@MewMew123waffles]

God, the first girl was GORGEOUS. Why do they always do that god awful hair color??

[@stefanmarchione6757]

The first lady, the hair color is very natural; the style layered and soft. I'm not a fan of her shoes, though. 👠 The second makeover, not trying to be mean, but it seems like her personality is awkward with her new style. 🤔 I don't feel "femininity" in her style, yet the makeover is very feminine. I feel a little more of a sporty style would suit her, say tailored trousers, a tank top, and fitted blazer. Finish the look with riding boots or chelsea boots. 👕👖👢

[@a.seniceros1083]

First girl looks so much better before!! She looks much older after..

[@chetumal85]

sorry but first girl’ hair looks toasted!!!!! they ruined!!!!! and the boyfriend have a 70s stile and not even engaged!!!!

[@meekaxoxo1617]

Ayyyyy I’m from fort myers area!

[@momofmanda]

If they are not able to watch their makeover, how do they know how to reproduce the look when they get home?

[@ErbarmeDichMeinGott]

Slicked back hair would look nice on the second lady.

[@2snowgirl520]

They force everyone to hug! I would be like don't touch me!!!

[@dbloch6784]

Wonder did the first couple get married.

[@StevenPaul0717]

The hair stylist guy looks like he’s made of plastic.

[@almudenacarnero7934]

[@christinechurch8303]

Saha looks like Kate middlton

[@lmcdonald1879]

right cheek larger than left..stop it louis la la la la la la

[@Kristine-x6d]

The second lady did not receive a flattering hairstyle, should have softened it a bit to be more feminine.

[@shilpagorasiya1033]

The first girl is better befor

[@universaltruth2025]

Sarah looked better before

[@karenskloset898]

If you want a makeover cut the hair!
