So you want to look like. . .

Hate her or love her, Nicki Minaj seems to be the woman of the moment. Having collaborated with the biggest names in the industry including Usher, Jay-Z and Drake, the Young Money rapper/singer is finally shining on her own with her record-breaking debut platinum album ‘Pink Friday’. Talent and celebrity friends aside, Nicki Minaj is well known for making bold and beautiful statements with her hair- her signature look being long and pink with a blunt fringe.

But don’t let the cute pink locks and sweet smile fool you, this black barbie is not a woman to be messed with. Her infamous beef with fellow female rapper MC Lil Kim has earned her plenty of headlines and inspired many of her lyrical stylings, including her cutting rap in Kanye West’s ‘Monster’ track. Similar to other female celebrities such as Beyonce who uses an alter ego ‘Sasha Fierce’, Minaj has an alter ego known as ‘Roman Zolanski’. However unlike Beyonce’s Sasha, Roman represents rage and anger from Minaj and is one of several alias’ she is prone to adopt. Nicki does however, seem to have a softer side being named the new face of Viva Glam, alongside Ricky Martin. The Viva Glam campaign is run by MAC make-up and aims to fight AIDS/HIV through product sales.

Minaj is currently supporting Britney Spears’ Femme Fatale tour around North America and with her love for experimenting, we can only imagine what Nicki Minaj’s hair will be like on stage. The crazier the better we say! She’s pulled off green tinged blonde bobs, grey streaked white-afros and multicoloured rainbow hair, whilst continuing to look utterly fabulous. But what will she do next? Only time- and maybe her stylist- will tell.

To l0ok like Nicki Minaj?  Uh. . . .

You can’t get away from Rihanna right now but then, who’d want to? She’s everywhere!  Magazine covers, music festivals, award ceremonies, on stage, and wherever she is, she draws every eye.  Rihanna’s hair seems to change every time we see her and whether she’s incognito, rocking her off-stage, casual sideswept fringe or at work in her latest flaming eye-catching hairstyle, one thing is certain; she’s gorgeous!

Rihanna is number 3 on this year’s 100 Sexiest women list published by FHM and as 1 and 2 are dating Jason Statham and married to Russell Brand respectively, that makes Rihanna the sexiest single woman in the world.

Rihanna’s hair, face and body are not the real story though, her talent is stunning too. She’s sold over 30 million copies of her five albums and over 100 million singles worldwide.  Her live performances sell out rapidly and her music videos are among the most watched and are probably the most talked about out there right now. She’s collected over a hundred music industry awards including 4 AMAs, 4 Grammys, 2 MOBOs, a BRIT and 10 from MTV.  Her nominations and awards span Pop, R&B, Soul, Rock, Reggae and Rap categories  There’s something for everybody.

Away from music, Rihanna’s a busy girl too with endorsements from Nivea, Gucci, Nike, and other big names under her belt.

Her heart’s in the right place too.  She started her own Believe Foundation in 2006  to help terminally ill children and also fronted Gucci’s United Nations Children’s Fund campaign as well as working with other stars performing for charities.

All this from a 23-year-old. . .

We can’t wait for the next album, roll on Riri, we love you!

Rihanna’s hair is mercurial and there’s no single way to look like her.  Before her latest series of big, bright red dos, Rihanna’s sideswept fringe was the most emulated hairstyle of recent times. Her off-stage look was a big part of the inspiration behind LATrends new range of short wigs. . .

Megan Fox is purported to have said, “Getting typecast as what? Attractive? How bad is that?” and who can help but agree with her!

Young, talented and beautiful Megan Fox is  the gorgeous lady we all associate with the blockbuster movie “Transformers”. The film and it’s stunning leading lady made men stop in their tracks and women majorly jealous. She was nominated for an ‘MTV Movie Award’ for ‘Breakthrough Performance’ for the hugely popular film.

She had her first lead role in the black comedy horror ‘Jennifer’s Body’ where she played a powerful, evil possessed cheerleader who consumes the boys in her school.

Megan Fox has been voted ‘hot’ in men’s magazines year after year, she’s been in the top 20 hottest women in ‘Maxim’ magazine and ‘FHM’ readers have given her the title of “Sexiest Woman in the World”.

The breathtaking brunette with her startlingly blue eyes, sultry pouty smile, casual dress sense and sexy ‘bed-head’ hairstyle is one foxy lady we would all love to look like. . .

Megan Fox’s hair is long, wavy and brunette, to recreate this look is relatively easy using  either our European Virgin Cuticle Hair – Mediterranean Wave or our Virgin Brazilian Hair Extensions

These two styles of hair extension have the added benefit of having natural waves, you can straighten them with GHDs and they will go wavy again after washing.

These can be professionally applied for you by any competent extensionist or if you prefer, you can buy some hair clips and make your own custom clip-in hair extensions.

Everybody loves Cheryl Cole, she’s our favourite judge of X-Factor and has been an awesome performer for years now. Cheryl’s group, Girls Aloud (Cheryl Cole, Nadine Coyle, Sarah Harding, Nicola Roberts) had 18 top ten singles and Cheryl’s  debut album, 3 Words launched her solo career right at the top of the UK charts.

Her new album, Messy Little Raindrops has earned her nominations in this year’s BRITS for the Best British Single and Best British Female categories!

To say that Cheryl Cole is gorgeous is to make a serious understatement, she is perfection from her trademark high-volume luscious red hair to her perfectly painted toes.

She has been number 1 on FHM’s 100 sexiest women list for two years in a row and has been in the top ten since 2005. She is Glamour’s reigning ‘Woman of the Year’ and these titles as well as her L’Oreal contract , put her firmly in the ranks of of the most beautiful women in the world. She can be compared favourably to Eva Longoria, Scarlett Johansson, Penelope Cruz, Megan Fox, Kelly Brook, Eva Mendes, Jennifer Lopez, the list could go on. . .

It’s not just about Cheryl Cole’s beautiful hair or cheeky smile though, In all manner of surveys, Cheryl has been voted the Celebrity we would most like:
-to read us a bedtime story. (By kids)
-to have as a best friend. (By women)
-to bed (by men)
-to share a sausage with, be rescued by, spend 24 hours in a caravan with and of course, To look like. . .

In a couple of weeks, the Brit Awards 2011 will take place at the O2 Arena and be shown exclusively live on ITV1.

If you want to look like Cheryl as she waits to find out if she will take either of the awards she is nominated for;

The easiest way would be to buy some good quality 100% human hair clip-in hair extensions. The quality is important here because after clipping them in, you would style them into cascading waves with hot tongs and inferior clip-ins would not be able to stand the heat.
In honour of Cheryl Cole, we have added new Red and Auburn shades to these two types of clip-ins, enjoy!
Try two of these or one of these and tong into waves.

Beyonce Knowles is more than just a singer, she’s an icon!  We have seen her perform on stage, in movies and on TV.  Anybody who is anybody has interviewed Beyonce.

No matter where we have seen Beyonce, be it shaking her booty on stage or shaking her hair in a L’Oreal advert, she is always gorgeous. FHM readers vote her into the “100 sexiest women in the world” year after year.

She’s pictured here offstage at a concert looking great in long highlighted tresses with a gentle natural wave.

To recreate the look of Beyonce’s hair you would either get a good stylist to weave or bond in some good quality wavy Remi hair like this Or even better, clip a couple of these in and hot-iron/tong the waves into the extensions and your hair.
