01.01.11How To: DIY Ombre HairI've been reading about Alex's at-home ombre hair adventure over at her amazing site, Ego-Friendly, and I so understand the feeling of impulsive hair changes, whether it's dashing out to Sally Beauty for a bottle of dye because suddenly you MUST change your color, chopping your own bangs on a whim because they're driving you nuts, or walking into the nearest salon for a haircut you saw on the cover of a magazine (Julia Stiles on the cover of Elle circa 2002.) I've done it all. However, I'm super impressed with people who lighten their hair at home; that's one thing ...

12.21.10Gwyneth Then & NowRemember back when Gwyneth Paltrow and then-boyfriend Brad Pitt had matching pixie cuts? They were seriously the best hair couple of all time. Aw, the 90s. Le sigh... Aaaaannnnd now. Gwyneth arrived to the screening of her new movie Country Strong in Beverly Hills last week looking very blonde and very gorgeous. Gwyneth did a lot of this look in 2010--the long blonde hair + neutral lip + white. But it works well on her. Gwyneth's white, floor-length Emilio Pucci gown was cut very simple in the front, but plunges dramatically in the back. Do you like this look on Gwyneth? Would ...

12.06.10Yay Or Nay: Emma’s Blonde HairSome people are 'natural' redheads, regardless of whether or not they were born that way. Red hair seems intrinsic to who they are and they look most beautiful as redheads. Actresses like Julianne Moore, Christina Hendricks, Karen Elson, Isla Fisher, Lindsay Lohan, Lauren Ambrose, Amy Adams--I could go on and on! Aaaaand speaking of which. Emma Stone turned up last night at Trevor Project’s annual Trevor LIVE event in Hollywood with brand new blonde hair. She told InStyle: “It’s my Spider-Man hair!” Of the new look, Emma said, “Blondes do have more fun! But sometimes I look in the mirror and ...

12.04.10How To: Go Platinum BlondeMost people tend to gravitate toward darker hair colors in the fall and winter months, but there’s something totally brilliant about flipping it and going platinum instead. Michelle Halpern turned herself from a self proclaimed mousy brunette into an absolutely stunning platinum blonde and took StyleCaster along for the ride! Check it out... Michelle headed to ION Studio NYC for her hair color transformation, but first she needed her grown out bob updated. Sara Lynch, one of the salon's top stylists, used a point cutting technique on Michelle’s naturally thick and curly hair. This technique thins out the hair's weight and ...

11.15.10How To: Lauren’s Hair ColorHOTB reader Sessie wanted to know what to call Lauren Conrad's hair color--was it a level 7N? Dark blonde? Light brown? Kaz Amor, celeb colorist and partner at Warren-Tricomi in LA reported to Hair Boutique that Lauren's color is a natural Level 6 and that he lightens it to a Level 7 blonde. To achieve this shade, Kaz utilizes Redken hair color in three ways. First Kaz smudges Redken Blonding Gels Gold Series into Lauren's natural base to lighten it one level. He then paints on beach-blonde highlights, using a "balayage" or freehand highlighting technique. For this step, Kaz uses ...

10.15.10Yay Or Nay: Ashlee's Platinum PixieHow are you guys feeling about Ashlee Simpson's new platinum blonde pixie? (I was just starting to like her ombre extensions. Oh well.) Overall, I like Ashlee better with a warmer, darker hair color, but it's cool that she likes to change up her look. It keeps things interesting. And I think if she was going to do this cut, she kind of had to go blonde... What do you guys think: Do you like Ashlee's platinum pixie or do you prefer her with long dark hair? (Image Source)

10.02.10Katherine's Killer UpdoKatherine Heigl totally killed it with this retro updo at the New York premiere of her new movie Life as We Know It. I love that she's back to blonde and this style looks spectacular on her. I'm digging the waves, how it tucks under high on her long neck, and that amazing vintage hair pin. All total perfection! And in general, Katherine's blonde hair has been looking really fabulous lately! Here she is out and about in New York City. Love those loose curls. What do you guys think of Katherine Heigl's hair?

09.04.10Fergie Back To BlondeI know some of you like Fergie better as a blonde than a brunette, so rejoice! She's back to blonde. Word is she made the switch for her role as the spokesperson for Avon’s Advanced Techniques. Fergie is also launching her first fragrance with Avon in September. (Can you name a celeb that doesn't have a perfume? Seriously. It's like the new handbag line.) Anyway, Do you like Fergie's new blonde hair color?

08.30.10Ice QueenJanuary Jones looked fabulous at the 62nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards. I really like her style... She's always interesting! She wore gleaming blue Atelier Versace gown that looked like a work of art, and left her hair down and simple. I've read criticisms of this styling choice, but I actually liked it because it's unexctected. An updo would have made this look too perfect/precious. Wearing her hair down and undone feels much more modern and cool. Love it. Plus, her bright blonde hair against that blue is amazing. What do you think of January Jones' Atelier Versace gown and undone hair?
