Heidi Montag Regrets Plastic Surgery

Wednesday, August 25th, 2010

heidi montag life and style breast implantsHeidi Montag blew us all away a few months back when she underwent a shocking 10 plastic surgery procedures in one day. The drastic change had everyone talking. Her parents were speechless. Even her husband Spencer Pratt said he didn’t agree with it, but still supported her. Now Heidi Montag is stepping forward in Life & Style Magazine to admit she regrets the surgeries.

Heidi Montag tells the magazine this month she regrets her G-cup breast implants. She says the implants are crushing her and she is in pain.

Now Heidi has to go under the knife again to get them removed. She plans to go down to a D or double D cup.

Heidi Montag is going to Costa Rica now and is looking for a plastic surgeon there to help her. She says she feels “trapped in my body.”

With so many young starlets going under the knife, Heidi Montag’s story will hopefully be a lesson to some.

Gabourey_Sidibe_2010The beauty blogs are heating up with news that actress Gabourey Sidibe may be creating her own makeup line.

Last week Precious star Gabourey Sidibe attended a party hosted by Estee Lauder. The very same day, she was spotted going in to a meeting with makeup expert Bobbi Brown. All of these things combined has led some beauty bloggers to believe that Gabourey Sidbie may be working on a makeup collaboration with Bobbi Brown herself.

While no official news has come out, Bobbi Brown and Gabourey do have a history together. Bobbi Brown did Gabourey’s makeup for the Golden Globe Awards. This will be an interesting beauty collaboration if it ever comes into fruition.

Celebrity Inspired Wedding Hair

Wednesday, August 11th, 2010

I don’t know about you, but at Real Style Network summer means wedding fever. We have seen more than our fair share of weddings both in person and in Hollywood this year. With a few weeks of summer left, you could still be preparing for your big day. Having the perfect beauty look for your wedding can be intimidating. With so many high-profile celebrity weddings this summer, take your cue from the celebrity wedding hair. We found tips from Latrice Strader, Master Hairstylist and Owner of Destiny De’Ve Hair Salon on the top five celebrity wedding hair choices you can chose.

Regal Beauty

America’s favorite first daughter tied the knot in a beautiful dress and ceremony, in addition to a classic feminine French twist. “The twists and braids are perfect for Chelsea since she is young, vibrant, and is a part of American royalty” says Latrice. “For any bride desiring a classic look with a lot of volume and texture, this French twist is a top bridal hairstyle—perfect for any princess fairytale wedding” Latrice continues.

Foxy and Simple

Transformers star Megan Fox shows off her shiny jet-black hair on her big day by keeping it straight and simple for her wedding. “Straight hair is definitely a sexy way to highlight natural beauty,” says Latrice.  “For any bride who desires a sexier and more natural look, straight hair is the perfect hairstyle” Latrice continues.

Gold, Elegant Waves

Khloe Kardashian’s perfectly crimped locks are highlighted by her luscious golden highlights for her big day. Khloe’s gold streaks bring out her glowing fair skin as well. “Gold and/or deep brown highlights are a great way to highlight your natural skin tone if you have naturally dark hair,” says Latrice.  “Shades of lighter colors for those with naturally lighter hair can also bring out beautiful glowing skin as well.”

All-American Girl Updo

Carrie Underwood’s beautiful smile and voice aren’t the only things touching hearts all around the nation. Carrie’s golden tresses are gathered into an elegant updo with loose curls that are easy to work with. “Carrie’s side swoop bangs complement her loose curls perfectly and add a fun yet beautiful look to her style,” says Latrice.

Fit for a Queen

Grammy award winning Alicia Keys continues to set trends even on her wedding day. Incorporating a diamond encrusted tiara with an elegant chignon tucked and pinned away from her face, Alicia exudes a regal look on her big day. “Alicia’s beauty is radiant with this simple yet glamorous hairstyle,” says Latrice.  “It’s a super chic and classic look that highlights her beauty well, especially with the added touch of the tiara.”

Justin Bieber For ProActiv

Monday, August 9th, 2010

Justin BieberTeen heartthrob Justin Bieber is joining the celebrity beauty endorsement craze by stepping in as the new face of Proactiv.

Sixteen year old Justin Bieber is promoting the skin care product in a new commercial. His commercial shows Justin Bieber being a ‘regular’ teen with ‘regular’ skin care problems like acne. He’s fooling around with his friends and playing basketball and washing his face to prevent acne.

Justin Bieber joins a list of young celebrities who have all smiled and showed off their skin for Proactiv. Katy Perry, Avril Lavigne, and Julianne Hough have all been Proactiv spokespeople at one time or another.

The skin care company is probably hoping that all of the young girls will want Proactiv because Justin Bieber uses it and the young boys will want it to get the girls who love him.

Hair Style Trend: Undercut

Wednesday, July 21st, 2010

When Rihanna debuted her new short undercut hair style, we thought it suited the edgy celebrity, but never dreamed it would become a fad. Now hair stylists are saying demand for the undercut hair style is rising.

An undercut is where you shave off a portion of your hair while leaving the rest of your locks longer and more feminine. It is a very edgy look that only the bravest should attempt. The look can go from a subtle undercut that you can hide under longer hair to dramatic looks that really show off the shaved portions of your hair. It’s up to you how far you want to go with your hair style.

According to this story in the Daily Mail the style has taken off thanks to a number of British celebrities sporting the hair style recently.

Apparently the look started in the 80’s when David Bowie sported one of the first undercut hair styles. Now it has launched back into demand after an appearance in fashion shows.

With the heat of the summer, it’s not surprising that women are choosing to shave off their locks for a bit of relief. Short hair styles are great for summer and hey, it will always grow back.
