09.02.10Talking Pixies At Lock & ManeI'm guest blogging again for my girls over at Lock & Mane, discussing how to decide if you're really ready to take the pixie plunge! Thanks to Hair On The Brain reader Chelsea and our emails exchange about this very topic for the inspiration behind this post! (Heart you guys.) Here's just at taste: You are a perfect candidate for a pixie, if you… Have a petite face with amazing bone structure. Pixies definitely work best on small faces, but it doesn’t stop there. It also requires high cheekbones and delicate bone structure. Don’t believe me? See amazing examples like Halle Berry, ...

09.02.10Anne Working The WigThere are some more pictures out of Anne Hathaway with her incredible new pixie. (Wig!) Now I'm kind of sad that it is a wig because she looks so great with the short hair in these photos! Anne is currently in Paris filming One Day with co-star Jim Sturgess. Le sigh. Filming in Paris sounds lovely and romantic, doesn't it? Gorgeous!

08.31.10Anne Gets A Pixie?Pictures of Anne Hathaway with a dramatic new pixie cut are hitting the Internet this week. Word is that Anne's new cropped style is for her role in the upcoming film One Day. But don't be fooled by the short locks; Anne's rep is tells Us Magazine: "It's a wig!" Hmm. I kinda like Anne with short hair, but I was honestly releeved to here it was just a wig. I think she looks better with longer hair. What do you think of Anne Hathaway's new (temporary) hair?

08.30.10How To: Emily Blunt’s Emmy HairEmily Blunt looked as amazing as ever as she walked the red carpet at the 62nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards with new husband John Krasinski. I love her lavender Dior, but what made the whole thing was her bag, jewelry, nails and her HAIR! Loved her hair. It was styled by Emily's long-time friend/stylist, Laini Reeves, co-owner of the new Essensuals London Salon on Melrose Ave in LA. Laini also styled Emily's hair for her wedding, but last night she created a fresh & sophisticated look for Emily, inspired by the iconic finger waves of the 20s. Laini used the lightweight, ...

08.30.10Katy Goes TechnicolorThis is such a great look on Katy Perry! So chic, cool, and sophisticated! Hee. Multi-colored hair extensions are really not my thing, but particularly with a tiger print jacket. I get that Katy has a crazy sense of style--and sometimes I like her daring choices. But I just don't get this particular look. Why would you want to look tacky? Maybe I'm missing something. Do you guys like this look on Katy?

08.30.10Ice QueenJanuary Jones looked fabulous at the 62nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards. I really like her style... She's always interesting! She wore gleaming blue Atelier Versace gown that looked like a work of art, and left her hair down and simple. I've read criticisms of this styling choice, but I actually liked it because it's unexctected. An updo would have made this look too perfect/precious. Wearing her hair down and undone feels much more modern and cool. Love it. Plus, her bright blonde hair against that blue is amazing. What do you think of January Jones' Atelier Versace gown and undone hair?

08.30.10How To: Jenna Fischer’s Emmy HairTRESemme Celebrity Stylist Mara Roszak created loose, elegant waves for The Office star Jenna Fischer at last night's Emmy's. Jenna looked comfortable and effortlessly glamorous on the red carpet. Roszak shares her tips on how to get the look at home: Start by parting hair slightly off center when the hair is damp. Next, apply TRESemme 24 Hour Body Root Boosting Spray to roots and brush through. Distribute a dime-sized amount of TRESemme Fresh Start No-Frizz Creme to the ends, and blow dry hair smooth with a medium-sized round brush. Once dry, create natural-looking waves with a 1 1/4" barrel curling iron rotating ...

08.30.10Mad For ChristinaI loved Mad Men's Christina Hendricks' chin-length curly bob at the Emmy Awards last night. So beautiful on her! And that red color against her pale skin. Ugh. Perfection! I am not totally wild about the Zac Posen gown, however. All that ruching, feathers, pleating... It's just a little much for a woman who is enough all on her own. I do like the lavender shade on her though. What do you think of Christina Hendricks' Emmy look?

08.30.10Queen KimmieI'm stuck on Kim Kardashian lately. She looked typical at last night's 62nd Primetime Emmy Awards, doing the Grecian Goddess thing. It works for her, but we've seen it a million times. I was not loving her hair, but her simple makeup is beautiful and her eyelashes are even a little toned down! Are you sick of the Grecian look on Queen Kimmie or are you still loving this style on her? And part 2: Are those eyelashes a result of: extensions, false eyelashes, or Latisse?
