Forever known for making the wedge bob as American as apple pie, 1976 Olympic Gold Medalist Figure Skater Dorothy Hamill caught up with StyleList as a lead up to the 2010 Olympic Games in Vancouver, which begin on Friday, Feb. 12.
Hamill dishes on what she really thinks about her famous cut (hint: her mom made her do it), her best cold weather skincare tips and the secret behind her svelte figure. A mom of one daughter and a breast cancer survivor, she also candidly explains why the diagnosis was "a slap in the face," and what you can do to protect yourself.
