Rock a Doodle Do
Rihanna had a tumultuous year, but her amazing style trumps all. She set herself apart from the R&B goddess pack with this edgy, spiky haircut. Rock on, RiRi!
Half n Half
Half of the world’s male population wanted to put a ring on Beyonce after seeing her “Single Ladies” video. The other half—us beauty gals—wanted to copy her half up, half down, pompadoured hairstyle. As a result, women everywhere have been spotted rocking this look; along with their new engagement rings, of course.
The Bald & The Beautiful
Solange wanted a new look and gave herself one! This brazen beauty looks flawless in her new, closely-cropped natural. We have a feeling that everyone and their mama will be cutting their hair off in 2010
Side Shave
This year, we saw several celebrities (Cassie rocked it best) displaying their half-bald-best on red carpets everywhere. And when Willow Smith debuted her shaved look in Oslo, we realized the style had even reached the elementary school set!
Rat Tails
One look at Keri Hilson’s modified rat tail ’do, and we changed our minds about the look being the stuff of 80s surf dudes. We love the juxtaposition of the heavy, swooped bangs with the angled fringe—so sexy on this cute songstress.
Braided Beauty
We just couldn’t take our eyes off of the models walking Oscar de la Renta’s Spring 2010 runway. Those beautiful, be-ribboned braids! We may not be able to get our hands on the pretty frocks, but we definitely had no problem stealing this gorgeous hair look.
Blonde Ambition
This year, celebs everywhere lightened up—including a newly back on the scene Toni Braxton. It definitely seems like she’s having more fun as a blonde (did you see that onstage kiss with crooner Trey Songz at this year’s Soul Train Awards?).
The New Wave
2009 was a great year for Zoe Saldana. She’s starring in the blockbuster movie ‘Avatar’ and looks fab on the cover of LIFE Magazine. Being beauty girls, we’re particularly obsessed with her new cut—the long, wavy bob. A trend is born.
Perm Free
This was the year to set yourself free of all things toxic: old boyfriends, bad marriages, crappy diets and perms. Yes, perms. Perhaps it had something to do with the release of the movie ‘Good Hair’, but more women have released their tresses from the jaws of the “creamy crack” and are rocking their naturally curly locks or freshly blown out strands.
Frizz Be Gone
Frizzy hair was so 2008. In 2009, Living Proof gave us just the weapon to fight the fuzz: Straight Making No Frizz Styling Cream ($24). One dollop of this super light styling cream, and bad hair days were a thing of the past.
