A St. Petersburg woman who says she has had a lot of bad hair days is getting a makeover in New York today for "Live with Regis and Kelly!"

Rebecca Aragon, 51, an electrician's apprentice, is one of five women who were selected for their "bad hair" by the syndicated TV talk show.

"Live" hosts Regis Philbin and Kelly Ripa invited viewers to send in their bad hair photos and hundreds applied. The "Live" staff narrowed it down to 10 finalists which were announced March 18.

Viewers had until midnight to log onto www.LiveRegisandKelly.com and vote for their favorite candidate.

Aragon is already in New York waiting to see what stylist Oscar Blandi will do with her waist-length hair. The episode will air at 9 a.m. on WTVT, Channel 13.
