Kristen McMenamy (born December 13, 1964) is an American model known for her unconventional, androgynous appearance.[3] Originally a long-haired redhead,[4] she reinvented her look in the early 1990s by having her hair cut short and dyed black,[5] and her eyebrows shaved off.[6] Her career was boosted by the advent of the grunge fashion trend.[7][8][9]
