hey during xtina aguilera's dirrty days lol what technigue do you think she used to get her hair such as in her dirrty video? also do you think the black streaks were fake , meaning dyed really or extensions
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.
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.
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....) :)
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.
