Paris Hilton Sued for Wearing Someone Else's Hair

Paris Hilton should probably be reading her contract instead of the Art of War.  She is being sued for $35 million by Hairtech Dream Catchers Hair extensions line.  She was caught wearing a competitor's hair extensions in magazines and on TV while under contract with Hairtech, a Beverly Hills Company.  Hairtech also accuses Paris of public debauchery tarnishing her public image.  Funny, I thought her image was created because of her public debauchery.  Anyway she also missed an important public event for the company because she was, wait for it .......in jail.  You can't expect a girl to stage a prison break just to stand in front of 600 hair professionals for god's sake.  It's not like she missed a sale at Neimans.  Anyway, the amount of the suit is 10 times the amount of her contract.

Emma Watson from wizard to pixie

Emma Watson no longer needed to keep her long witches tresses so she opted for a new pixie hair cut delivered by New York stylist Rodney Cutler of Cutler salon.  She is loving her new look after being under contract for 10 years and unable to cut her hair.  I think she was excited to shed the Hermione Granger of the Harry Potter series look.  She now enters her second year at Brown University.  She was asked if she had any remorse or regrets about her decision.  “It was weird. My hairdresser was like, ‘When are you going to freak out?’ Most people cry or go into shock,’” she says. “But I was very calm. I knew it was the right thing.”

Britney Spears is having a bad hair decade

Britney is a serial stylist switcher.  She has so many stylist you might even call her a salon Whor...no I won't finish it.  She has bounced around from George Papanikolas, Rick Henry, Kim Vo, Roberta Romero and Chris McMillan.  The pop tart was snapped last week with a big bald spot on her head!  Someone needs to help the girl, remember though, if you get the job don't expect any loyalty.

Trade Secrets and its parent company Premier Salons Beauty are filing for bankruptcy and closing 80 of their 612 stores.

Iran says "Death to the Mullet!"

Billy Ray will not be going to Iran for the next Hannah Montana tour if he knows what's good for him.
