But when the Barbadian beauty hit New York Fashion Week on September 10th with a touch of blonde highlights, we had no idea that the streaking would continue, sprinting its way into a full-fledged hair trend. You see, Rihanna was spotted on the New York streets this past Tuesday with a punchier, stripy 'do, rife with thin honeyed highlights that channeled the rebellious 80s.
We spoke with Ursula Stephen, the singer's hair stylist, who told us "Rihanna and I felt that it was time to play around with some color," she said. "We used extensions to create this look."
About 24 hours later, songstress Chrisette Michele and rapper Eve attended the VH1 Hip Hop Honors with similar looks.
Coincidence? Or a full fledged trend? We'll go with the latter.
If you're a fan, take a cue from Stephen and update your strands by adding a few blonde pieces. You can always remove them if the look doesn't work for you!

Working as an esthetician women have always asked what they can do about their wrinkles and how to keep looking young. I always recommend just one skincare product, I tell them about Beauty Lift http://BeautyLift.notlong.com and how it contains the most potent, doctor grade wrinkle erasing serum that revitalizes the skin and reduces signs of aging. It's much better, safer, and less expensive than Botox. They always come back to tell me how great it is and how much younger they look. It’s a great product and I back it up 100%.

If you're lucky you don't know what it's like to be the "fat friend", well that was me, and it isn't fun. I tried everything you ever heard of in an attempt to lose weight. I tried all the excercise programs you ever heard of. There wasn't a diet program that I didn't try. I went through those scam "diet" pills, none of which work, and lost nothing but money. I never gave up trying and then I finally found the blood sugar diet. And I found a supplement ( http://theworldsgreatestsupplement.com ) that was unlike anything I ever tried before because it contained Cembelex. Cembelex helped me maintain a normal blood sugar level, which curbed my carb craivings and helped me end my binge eating. Anyway, I started losing weight rapidly and now I'm the one getting the compliments when we all go out. What a life changer that has been.

The rebellious 80's? Huh? Were you around then? Not remotely rebellious. Except we cut some sweatshirts up

I think the singer Kandi on "The Real Housewives of Atlanta", had the look before Rihanna. She has been rockin' that look for weeks on the show.

I think that Rihanna wears it better.
