Bebel Gilberto

I saw the film "Rio" over the weekend and being set in Brazil they used some very good Brazilian artists. Also it reminded me too look up a particular artist who I believe has naturally curly hair, Bebel Gilberto. I believe she is featured on the soundtrack and I've always thought she had a lovely voice. Anyways I'd only seen one picture from her album cover which led me to believe she was naturally curly. Looking up pics however I'm not so sure.

It might just be a perm in the latter picture and a curling iron in the first. Either way I say check out her music even if you don't speak Portuguese (which I don't haha). It's very calming especially the song "Aganju". The movie I actually liked a lot more than I thought I would, visually it was quite beautiful and cute story if not somewhat predictable. But you're not here for my film/music critiques soooo feel free to ignore ;)

Jamie Gertz

I used to watch The Lost Boys quite a bit when I was young mainly for Kiefer Sutherland and even though it seems like everyone had big hair in the 80's, I just wanted to share some pictures of the female lead Jami Gertz.

Now it probably is just a perm, but I loved that she had such big hair and in my opinion today her hair style probably looks the least "dated" compared to her co-stars *ahem*
Jami is on the show Modern Family currently, and her hair is a lot shorter and a lot more sleek. She's beautiful either way but when I think of her I will always picture her like this first:

24

When 24 first aired I actually despised almost all the female characters. They were annoying, or bad or just made stupid decisions or they got killed off. It wasn't until Reiko Ayelsworth was cast as Michelle Dessler that there was finally a stronger leading female (aside from a few others like Chloe). However the Michelle character caught my attention because of her hair obviously. She always had it pulled back and it could look a bit messy but I liked that fact.


Every other female cast member had either really short hair or it was sleek or both. Now I'm just guessing this is Reiko's actual hair because I found a few pictures of her on the red carpet where it's not styled by curling iron.


I didn't even realize that initially I was drawn to her character because of her hair because at the time I was flat ironing my hair every day.  I didn't even realize my hair was curly then, I just thought it was frizzy.  Anyways I think she's a great actress even with straight hair, but I like the fact that for the most part she seems to keep it curly.

Amy Iriving

She never really (that I saw) abandoned the hair she was given.


I think she's most famous for her role in Carrie
But I always knew her from Rumpelstiltskin first

sorry I don't have any screen caps of her hair from this, I only have it on vhs which I should just go out and get the dvd already.

Mia Sara

I think aside from the Unicorns, the reason I loved the movie Legend so much was the Princess in the film didn't have straight long hair. She had shorter curly brown hair and it was lovely! Now I know her hair in real life is straight but if you look at pretty much any of the Princesses around that time and in Disney  or non-Disney movies since, most of the female characters (let alone the lead) have straight hair.

And I think this last picture really shows her hair style best as it was in the film:
