After undergoing a makeunder, Cyndi's too-hot-for-teacher wardrobe has been replaced by a Nanette Lepore jacket, BCBG blouse and skirt and a few strands of metallic pearls.

Cyndi says she didn't have trouble taking out the hair extensions or toning down her heavy makeup, but she does miss her acrylic nails. "I'm getting used to it," she says. "The nails were the hardest thing."

Carson says Cyndi had very long nails, which were decorated with artwork. "I'm not a big fan [of nails with artwork]. Call me crazy, but if there are seagulls or hearts on your nails...who's looking down there anyway?" Carson says.
