Dollars to doughnuts, Xtina's entire head is fake hair every time you see it--either a wig or a LOT of extensions. The Dirrty look was definitely extensions, and it's pretty easy to replicate--you can use pretty much any strand-by-strand method to do it. I had that look myself a few months ago. You would need to have light-blonde to platinum hair, at least on top, to begin with, though.

Here's a link for more info on the Xtina look: http://talk.hairboutique.com/forum/viewthread.asp?forum=AMB%5FAP934431446&id=3961

:) Good luck!

actually you wouldnt even need to do strand by strand to do it. I replicated the look with a manaquin head (In reverse, brown on top and blonde on bottem) entirely with wefts.

all you need to do is make sure the contrasting hair is longer then the natural hair.

I'd still recommend strand by strand for this because you'd be able to place the streaks a little more randomly after doing the underlayers. :)

Lazy? Somehow I doubt that.

You are the same girl who pretipped and installed 4 1/2 bags of PlastikHaar? That's no small feat!

Speaking of PH, did you try to reset the wave yet?

I've heard that Christina's hairdresser actually uses "clip-on" pieces for her.
If I remember his name, I'll post it.

At this point, I'm sure she's used everything imaginable--wigs, clips, pieces, extensions. She's changed her hair so many times.

Personally, I loved her two-toned hair and the big, black waves she had afterward. I'm not crazy about the Marilyn look; I don't think it works somehow, but the fashion police seem to like it (which always seems to mean that I hate it--lol). Oh, and that Dee Snyder 'do wasn't the best, either, was it? (Forgot about that one....) :)

yeah, she changes her hair so much for shoots and shows that I don't see her really wearing anything more permanent.

Dee Snider used to get his extensions done at the shop I worked at in NYC.

Ha! That's funny. I never even knew people had extensions until the late '90s probably. I'd just never heard of it. I had so much hair-envy growing up, and probably so many of the heads I saw on TV were extensions....

Even now, women's magazines and other media outlets are very hush-hush about it. They'll do a feature with a celebrity, who obviously has extensions, and they'll make no mention of it at all in the beauty credits. They'll just say, "Celebrity X had gorgeous hair, so stylist so-and-so sprayed volumizer on the roots and set the hair in hot rollers for a full, sexy look..." Nothing at all about the person who slaved away applying extensions for hours, or the wig-maker, or the person who made the clip-ins.... It's pretty misleading, actually.
