Haute Hue: Red, Yay or Nay?

First Scarlett Johansson then Blake Lively... it seems our favorite blondes are trading in their signature locks for strawberry-hinted reddish hues. Blake's excuse?  She wanted to feel like the character she was playing for her new role in the movie Hick.  Makes sense to me and even though I like her better as a blonde I think she nicely pulls off this color too.

I remember when Scarlett dyed her hair red for her role in Iron Man 2 back in 2009.  I liked it then, but it was also a deeper red and her hair was longer so it was an overall sexier look.  Now, I think her short hair looks better as a blonde.

Thoughts?

Oscar Beauty Predictions

I absolutely cannot wait for the Oscar's tomorrow night, but feel it's bitter sweet because the ceremony brings a close to awards season, my favorite season of the year. I got the scoop from celeb stylist, Sally Hershberger who works with major A-Listers including Julia Roberts, Meg Ryan and Blake Lively on her predictions for Oscar-worthy hairstyles.

"I predict lots of flow and movement," Hershberger commented.  "For those who opt for their hair up, the the overworked, over-styled updos are gone and the modern take on it is a soft, sophisticated style that is still youthful and pulled together."

Thinking back to the Golden Globes, which was just a few weeks ago, I guess Hershberger would be surprised to see anyone walking the carpet with a 'do like the stiff mess that was on Scarlett Johansson's head.

What was she thinking anyway!?
