Is Fergie Losing her Hair?

Filed under: Hair Care, Celebrities with Style, Beauty Tips

A rumor-plagued newlywed is nothing special in Hollywood. Many blushing brides fall victim to the standard is-she-or-isn't she pregnant, or are-they-or-aren't-they-happy variety, but the whispers about Fergie are unique. The buzz around Josh Duhamel's new Mrs. is that she's losing her hair. This recent shot of Fergalicious shows the singer with an unusually wide part and what looks like it could be the beginning of a bald patch at the crown of her head. The former Black Eyed Pea isn't in need of a wig quite yet, the problem does seem to be getting worse since she went brunette. While there are many possible reasons for Fergie's increased scalp exposure (too many dye jobs, extensions, genetics) Nunzio Saviano, senior stylist at Oscar Blandi, told Star magazine that "it mainly happens because of stress and dieting." As if brides to be didn't have enough to worry about, now fitting into your dress could cause you to lose your hair!

For a look at a fuller-locked Fergie, and the other brunette beauties in Hollywood, check out the gallery below.

Are extensions safe for your hair?

Filed under: Hair Care

If you have short hair and wish it was longer, you have oodles of options for hair extensions. You can go high-end or cheap, real or synthetic -- the options are nearly endless.

But if you want extensions, you have more to consider than whether you want to use Jessica Simpson's or Paris Hilton's -- you need to consider whether it's okay for your hair.

Drugstore Beauty Queen: Rogaine

Filed under: Cosmetics, Steals and Deals

There are few editorial forums out there bold enough to talk about Rogaine. GQ wouldn't touch this one with a ten-foot pole, and that's ditto for Elle and Vogue. But here at Styledash, we feel no need for such propriety. As the self-proclaimed gunslingers of the beauty biz, we're ready to tell it like it is, come what will.

That's why I don't hesitate to talk about one of my own drugstore beauty secrets: Rogaine. No, no, no -- it's not what you're thinking. I have a perfectly full head of healthy hair. But about three years ago, when I first started working in the fashion industry, someone warned me that I would never get jobs with my skinny, over-worked eyebrows. (As I mentioned yesterday, the bushy browed look has been pretty big in the fashion biz for a while now.)

Not one to let my own stone gather moss, I weighed my options. Either I could wait it out or I could do something about the problem. And of course I decided to do something about it.

So I stole -- yeah, like I was actually going to buy a bottle of it -- an ex-boyfriend's generic hair regrowth treatment from his medicine cabinet. Then, I very carefully applied a thin layer of Rogaine onto my over-plucked brows with a Q-tip once a day. Sounds, gross, I know. And yes, it's probably very dangerous.* But sometimes desperate times call for desperate measures. Am I right?

Within two weeks my brows had started to regenerate, and by the end of the month, they had fully regrown.

And it was truly a minoxidil miracle!

*okay people, I'm just going to say it: DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME!
