Extension Myths Busted - Tip of the Day!

Filed under: Style Tip of the Day

eva longoriaWe were lucky enough to score an interview with some lovely ladies, Nikki and Riawna, from the Ken Paves Salon in Hollywood. Between the two of them, they have tons of experience, an amazing knowledge bank on the topic, and a crazy client list to boot (think Lindsay Lohan, Colin Farrell, and Eva Longoria). So I rolled what we got from these two into a week's worth of tips so you can look like you just walked out of the Ken Paves Salon.

When most of us think extensions, we think of a hideous weave and chicks with totally fried, damaged hair. But did you know that 90% of celebs have extensions? Now you're probably wondering who has them and why you can't tell what's what. Riawna says it's because "not all extensions are bad for your hair. Keep in mind you get what you pay for."

Stylist poll: to fake your bangs or not?

Filed under: Hair Care, Polls and Quizzes


Today's Stylist poll is about fake bangs. Should you or shouldn't you, would you or wouldn't you?

We say, OMG yes!

Bangs can be the hardest hairstyle to pull off successfully, unless you're Heidi Klum, with an amazing face and 24/7 groomers to make sure they are exactly the right length at all times. Plus, growing them out takes forever.

But fake bangs take all of the maintenance, and commitment, out of the equation.

Prada, pictured here, went (as usual) for an ultra faux bang look. Fakies also turned up, just slightly more natural looking, at the Hervé Léger by Max Azria for Fall '08.

If those are too outré for you, there is always the standard sex kitten clip-on heavy bang, available across the internets for pocket change.

So, are you in or are you out? Go vote!
