Here Come the Braids! Fake, Real and Hair Extensions

Here come the braids! Jessica Alba, Nicole Richie, Fergie, and Sienna Miller wear their hair in braids. So do Anne Hathaway, Mary-Kate Olsen, Scarlett Johansson and countless other celebrities. Braids were all over the runways in the Paris and New York fall fashion shows, they’re seen on the red carpet and all over downtown New York and LA, and they’ll be everywhere soon.

The fastest way to get long, lush braids? Ultima Organic Protein hair extensions! Extensions come in a wide range of textures, colors and lengths, and a skilled stylist can blend Ultima hair extensions to match your own color exactly.

Teddi Cranford, a stylist at Bumble & Bumble in New York told the New York Observer she was seeing a lot of braids in New York several months ago, but that L.A. is just now catching on. “Hair kind of follows fashion,” she said, citing flowing, bohemian looks being sent down the runway by designers (many of whom have also featured braids, among them influential and decidedly non-bohemian Alexander Wang).

“There are a million different ways,” Ms. Cranford enthused of braids’ permutations. “When they get a cut, I’ll style them with a really natural blow-dry and then just do a cute little braid in the front, and it kind of spices things up a little bit. But I’ve seen women come in and they’ll get a big braid off to the side and then pin it back into a low chignon, a low bun, and then they’re going to put on their fancy dress and off they go!”

Katie Holmes: “a testament to the power of hair extensions”

“Katie Holmes: Better Long,” sniped Fox News. “Mrs. Cruise is a real testament to the power of hair extensions. Katie, who has been looking increasingly tired and old lately, showed up for the Japan premiere of Valkyrie looking young, radiant, and like her former self again thanks to some faux locks.”

The Insider and other blogs reported that Holmes’ new look cost $43,000, and took more than 48 hours to complete.

And then Holmes was seen in Los Angeles just one week later with her regular short bob! We ordinary mortals can have a glamorous hair makeover too – for a fraction of the cost of a celebrity hairstyling session. Pro10 Hair Extensions, made with Ultima Protein hair are affordable and easy to maintain. You’ll get the best results when you go to a licensed hairstylist who is experienced with Pro 10 hair extensions. More »

Hollywood Hair Makeover on Facebook – What Fun!

This is so much fun! InStyle Magazine has a Hollywood Hair Makeover application on Facebook where you can try on hundreds of celebrity hairstyles before you make a big change in your own hair – or just for fun. That’s me, goofing around with my celebrity before and after style!

You can bet that any celebrity with long, full hair has hair extensions, especially if they were wearing a short bob just a few months ago. (Log into your Facebook account and enter “Hollywood Hair Makeover” – without quote marks – in the Facebook search to find the application.)

Your friends can vote on whether or not you should make a change, and you can email the before and after to friends.

Michelle Obama’s Hair is Closely Watched

Like anyone, Michelle Obama has good hair days and bad hair days. Her hair’s been seen pressed and shiny, she’s had weaves and it appears that she often has hair extensions added to her hair. She’s worn it every way but curly and every strand is being scrutinized – not just by black women, but by the media.

Magazine and newspaper articles have been written about her hair. Slide shows run on blogs and mainstream media websites. Talk show hosts interview her hairdresser.

Writing in the online magazine Salon, Erin Aubry Kaplan, asks: “… A reality check: in this alleged new era of racial enlightenment, how would we see Michelle if she switched to braids, twists, curls or dreads, if she looked more like the black person she is?”

Given Mrs O’s demanding schedule, we recommend that she have her stylist use Pro10 Hair Extensions made with Ultima Protein Hair. It’s got all of the good qualities of human hair, and none of the bad. It won’t frizz, droop, or lose its set. And because it comes in so many colors, lengths, and textures, she can chair her hairstyle as often as she changes her outfits.

2009 Runway Hair Fashion Trends

There were definitely some “Don’t try this at home” looks on 2009 runways shows in New York, Paris, London and Tokyo this year. From invisible eyebrows (bleached or even shaved off) at Marc Jacobs and other shows, to the “Cousin It” hair at Christian LaCroix, to the gobs and gobs of silver blue eyeshadow and voluminous false eyelashes, there was no shortage of extremes in hair and make-up.

On the runways hairstyles included:
o African headwraps
o extreme Afros
o sleek buns with glassy, polished texture
o architecturally inspired updos with structural silhouettes
o full ponytails, created at Michael Kors by wrapping hair extensions around them to create perfect flowing manes
o the ever-present bob
o retro and feminizing accessories softened severity, including gold Barrette clips, ribbons, fabric flowers, and hippie bandanas

So what will we really wear? Whatever we like! We don’t take orders from designers anymore!

But the trend is definitely toward long and full. And hair extensions are definitely necessary for the full pony tails to the big curls, sculpted updos and funky versions of French braids. More »

Miley Cyrus Extends Herself

Hannah Montana starlet Miley Cyrus, 15, spent six hours getting new hair extensions at the Juan Juan hair salon in Beverly Hills on Saturday, according to the Gossip Girls blog. Then, she and her mother, Tish, enjoyed some retail therapy at nearby shops.

On the Disney Channel’s recent 3D Hannah Montana Best of Both Worlds concert, backstage footage showed Cyrus having her own hair wrapped so she could wear her alter ego’s trademark blonde wig.

Dear Jamelia: There are alternatives to human hair extensions!

Pop star Jamelia recently got herself some media attention by dramatically declaring that she’d never wear hair extensions again because of the “very real human costs” of obtaining hair for human hair extensions. “How did I know I wasn’t wearing a dead person’s hair?” she roiled in the Daily Mail. She even starred in a BBC show called “Whose Hair is it Anyway?” featuring shifty looking human hair dealers who take hair from dead people.

Dear Jamelia: There are alternatives to human hair extensions! And one of the best alternatives is Pro 10 made with Ultima Natural Protein Hair. Made with natural collagen, Ultima hair looks, feels like and has the best qualities of human hair. You can curl, blow-dry, wash, brush, comb, style and restore Ultima hair without tangling, and it’s affordable too.

As several commenters noted in the Daily Mail article “…All this hand wringing nonsense.”

Rock on Jamelia. Just switch to Pro 10 so you can keep having hair extensions as your “confidence booster” that “transform me from busy mum of two into my alter ego, Jamelia the pop star.”
