Every girl has a love/hate relationship with her hair. If her hair is straight, she wishes it were curly. If her hair is curly, she wishes it were straight. Frizz is constantly on the attack and there are never enough bobby pins. Yet, our hair can either make or break a look, so we spend hours planning, executing, and perfecting our style. In my case, that usually ends in sweat, blood, tears and an even frizzier mess than I started with.
After yet another such ordeal this past weekend, I came up with a brilliant idea – shaving my head. It’s perfect. There are literally hundreds of reasons why I should (and a couple why I shouldn’t, but I say my boyfriend can take a chill pill and worry about his own hair). Here are just a few of the wonderful benefits of shaving your head:
Fabulous Hat Opportunities - I have come to adore hats. Never before I have I seen so many fabulous hats just wandering the streets. We have fedoras, cloches, berets, slouchy knits, and even pork-pie hats. They are the perfect accessory and also do a wonderful job of keeping your head warm…which is only useful if you have no hair. Plus, if you shave your head, you don’t have to worry about an awkward hat hair situation when you remove said fabulousness.
Wig Potential – Kind of like a hat made out of hair, the wig is an awesome way to accessorize yourself. Just grab and go! Make sure to go the natural hair route, unless you’re specifically going for that cheap-anonymous-bachelor-party-stripper look. Which, since Samantha Jones rocked it in Sex and the City, I fully condone. Read More »

We’re back with another edition of G.W.W…
…well, sort of.
I’ve got a healthy libido and a short attention span, so my celeb crush turnover rate is pretty high. But every once in a blue moon, my ever-wandering eye is caught by someone so despicable, so nasty, my sexual drive is dashed in an instant. This week, let’s talk about a G.W.D.W.E. (Guy We Don’t Wanna Eff)–Phil Spector.
Phil’s career as a music producer is perhaps as illustrious as they come–he’s worked with The Ramones, The Righteous Brothers, and The Beatles. But just last month, he was sentenced to 19 years to life for the murder of Lana Clarkson. Witnesses at his trial said he had a ghoulish habit of “bullying” women with guns. Great songwriter? Maybe. Soulless, gun-wielding psycho? Definitely.
But the pièce de résistance of Spector’s uneffable resume is his God-awful puffball hairdo. Seriously? Look at this thing! It looks like someone stuck his pecker in a socket and transplanted his putrid pubes onto his head. Looking at this photo for more than three consecutive seconds triggers my vom-in-my-mouth reflex. Yuck! And worst of all, the ‘do is a wig! Spector has been known over the years to fancy all sorts of alternative hairstyles, but this one takes the fashion-disaster cake. Who voluntarily chooses to look like that?
Philly, shame on you for your nasty updo. Double shame on you for murdering an innocent woman. Triple shame on you for wasting your legendary talent. Don’t expect any conjugal visits from me.
