All of us have looked deep within at some point in our lives and wondered if we could ever have been good enough to be a competitive moustache grower. When I was a kid, we all had trading cards depicting our favourite moustache or beard man, and we would trade them. That is why I…
Awhile ago we did a post about hairdo’s inspired by foods. If you don’t remember, we are hurt by your ignorance. Anyway, this time we are switching it around to hairstyles that were inspired by silly animals!

Back in Roman times, women did not have fancy chemicals to dye their hair with. So, they opted for the next best thing – pigeon poop.
We have talked before about some crazy things people have made out of human hair, but here are some tried and true methods of using human hair that could actually be useful if you knew what you were doing, and you are also the kind of person weird enough to make stuff out of hair.

The mere mention of lice can make your head begin to itch!
And while the subject of adult lice is both unpleasant and inconvenient, it’s

somewhat reassuring to know that it can happen to even the cleanest head of hair.
In fact, getting hair lice isn’t even a matter of hygiene or cleanliness, since it’s spread…

Not all fairy tales happen the way Disney likes to portray them, for example did you know that the story of Rapunzel was originally published as a short story by the Brothers Grimm in 1812. The original tale is a bit darker and more twisted than the current Disney version “Tangled.”

Just like every other piece of your body, the cells and procedures that produce solid, energetic hair rely on upon an adjusted eating methodology.

Have you ever wondered why some people have curly hair while others don’t? Or what exactly makes curly hair curly in the first place? Well, as it turns out, curly hair is actually kind of mysterious.
Big, absurd hairstyles are great. How often have you seen an enormous and majestic beehive or afro and thought to yourself, “that must not be very good for your neck”? Or, sub-question, how often have you thought “how heavy could that hairdo be before the structural integrity of the neck gave out”?
Ow, that’s gotta…
If you’ve ever watched Fear Factor, then you’ve probably cringed and gasped as scorpions, snakes, and cockroaches crawled over people’s faces.

It may seem like something out of your wildest dreams (or nightmares), but one spa service in Israel might awaken your animal instinct.

The way people wear their hair will inevitably cause judgments from other people. If you never get a haircut and never wash your hair, people will think you are a bum. If you get dreadlocks, people will think you are a hippie or raver. If you have a mohawk, people will think you are a…

When you ask someone what their hair is for, they will usually say something like “It keeps my brain warm”, or “It looks pretty”, or maybe “I chew on it”.

Many years ago, the hairdressing industry was dominated by male barbers. As time went on, women decided that this was dumb and started becoming hairdressers. Then, science went ahead and proved that the women were right all along, and they do make better overall hair people.

Is it possible to grow curly hair just by adjusting your diet? No. Scientifically the very idea is as ridiculous as it is impossible.

Ah the age old question: curly hair or straight hair? Many people with curly hair straighten it daily. And many people with straight hair get perms. Maybe it is a “grass is always greener” mentality.

Typically, when you see someone with a shaved head it is a male, but have you noticed the string of female celebrities who have been shaving their heads? Remember the movie V for Vendetta with Natalie Portman? Portman shaved her head in order to play Evey in that film. In fact, Portman didn’t just shave her head, she shaved it as part of the movie. “She loved it and kept rubbing her head.” Says the Director James McTeigue of Portman and her new style. Portman definitely rocked the shaved head hairstyle for females everywhere.

Spring and summer brings in new style in clothes and hair. Hair is the crowning glory of women. Most women keep their hair long because they believe it adds femininity and sexiness. But there is a certain air of confidence when we see a woman with short hair. Five trending styles for this spring and summer are classic bob, asymmetrical bob, boys cut, pixie cut and undercut. A beautifully styled short hair whether it’s a Bob, Pixie or boy cut gives a different allure and mystery. The undercut gives the wearer an edgier and out of the box look.
