Demi Bob New Beauty Phenom? bob, celebrity hairstyles, model's hair | (13)
Vogue declares the demi bob not just a hair trend, but a Beauty Phenomenon. The bob length is described as hitting "anywhere between mid-neck and shoulder-dusting". Examples of this phenom? Alexa Chung... Natalia Vodianova and Brooklyn Decker. And according to Vogue, the original inspiration was model Arizona Muse. (Appropriately named!) One could argue that hair length hitting between mid-neck and shoulders is really just a bob but whatever. Vogue has been in business since 1892! Each month they have to come up with some new/old trend, right? So what do you think of this beauty phenomenon? Will you be chopping your locks this summer?

Pretty People Problems celebrity hairstyles, fashion, hair products, how to, model's hair | (23)
In the February issue of ELLE magazine, the article "Rough Riders" explains how to get matte, dull-looking, "lived-in" hair. You know, that I just woke up, haven't showered, ratty ponytail look that most of us achieve by waking up and putting our hair in a ponytail. But apparently there are some people with hair SO AMAZING that it takes real effort to fug it up. This reminds me of an article I read years ago (in Nylon, I think) about how to achieve chipped nail polish. Seriously. All kidding aside, matte hair done right can look kind of cool. The ...

Interview With Celeb Stylist Denis De Souza celebrity hairstyles, celebrity hairstylist, hair color, highlights, interviews | (4)
Yesterday I got to interview mega celebrity hairstylist Denis De Souza from Andy LeCompte Salon in West Hollywood and Prive Salon in New York. Denis is best known for being the coloring genius behind Rachel Bilson's to-die-for hair, which is one of my all-time favorites! Denis was so much fun to interview and answered all my Rachel Bilson hair color questions. Plus, he dished on how he keeps his clients' hair looking so healthy and gorgeous while coloring, and of course, which celebs he wants to get into his chair. Check it out! Hair On The Brain: How did you get ...

End of Chung? celebrity hairstyles, curls, television | (0)
Emma Roberts and Alexa Chung looked pretty hot at the Teen Vogue party for Louis Vuitton in NYC last night (Dec. 10). Both of their hair is killing me. So pretty with the shiny curls! Sad news for Alexa though: Her MTV show On the Air With Alexa Chung will no longer be on the air after Dec. 17. MTV programmer Tony DiSanto told Variety that the station is committed to studio-based, live pop culture shows, but it's still searching for the right fit. "The difference between these and scripted shows is you have to develop these on the air. We ...

Burberry Blue Eyes celebrity hairstyles, fashion, gossip | (0)
Where has Gwyneth Paltrow been lately? These pictures of her at the Burberry show this week (September 22) are the first time I've seen her in a while. Hmm... She sat along side Emma Watson to watch so they could pout together during the Burberry Prorsum Spring/Summer 2010 Show during London Fashion Week. (So maybe Gwynnie just hides out in London?) She looks tan though. Weird. And her hair looks pretty good. Typical Gwyneth hair, but I like the length. A longer lob. Victoria Beckham and Agyness Deyn were front row too, of course. I love the color combination Agyness has going ...

Rachel Bilson Two-Toning? celebrity hairstyles, hair color | (0)
So, you know how I'm semi-obsessed with this whole two-tone hair thing, right? First came Cameron Diaz and then that British chick on MTV (Alexa Chung) and now... maybe Rachel Bilson? Do you think it's just a bad dye job or is it an intentional two-toning? I'm going to go with the latter because... Well, I mean, come on! She's Rachel Bilson! Also, Rachel hung out in my neighborhood a couple of weeks ago. And looked super cute, as usual.

It's On celebrity hairstyles, hair color, hair inspiration, highlights, television | (0)
There's this really stupid new show on MTV called It's On with Alexa Chung. Have you seen it? I have no idea who Alexa Chung is (an ex-model?) but the show is painfully awkward. Her interviews are awful. It's like she's trying really hard to fit the format, but would rather be off having a drink and a smoke somewhere and certainly not hosting an MTV show targeted at tweens. Not that I can blame her. I've only caught bits and pieces of the show while at the gym, but once she was coming up with random things for the ...
