RANDOM MUSING: THE BLONDE PHENOMENON
I LOVE hair, whether it's straight, curly, natural, relaxed, weaved, or wigged out. The thing that baffles me the most about hair trends these days is the overinfatuation with Blondes. In entertainment, I've seen women and even sometimes men who were already beautiful go from a more natural-looking hair color to a highly unnatural looking blonde haircolor. There are very few people who can actually wear blonde hair. Your hair color should compliment your skin tone.Women of color should be especially wary of participating in the blonde trend, especially olive-tones....blonde has a tendency to give them the "washed out" effect. Not to mention if everyone else is blonde..where do you fit in? Where's the individuality? Don't get me wrong,there are plenty of women who have natural or color-treated blonde hair that look really fab...and then there are others who should be banned from ever purchasing a bottle of Ms. Clairol again (i.e. Lil Kim and Remy Ma). Some of the most beautiful women to me are natural red-heads and brunettes. This woman is so gorgeous to me but you hardly ever read compliments regarding her looks, just her acting abilities. Every time I see a newly-blonde starlet I just roll my eyes and say to myself "Another one bites the dust".
