    Kelis, our favorite boss chick, one who has been rocking short hair for a minute, still switches it up with a big layered bang and 70s shades for a retro feel. Black is the color tonight. (Photo by Arnold Turner, WireImage.com)

    Alright, Beyonce's hair is not short -- but this IS short for the Texan born beauty who has always done it BIG. Her hair for the 50th Grammys was finally MODERN with lots of blonde streaks over darker low lights.(Photo by Kevin Winter, Getty Images)

    Dressed in all black like the omen, Keyshia Cole, goes jet black in her hair, outfit and even nails. The ringlets in front are pretty, but all that black washes her light complexion out. (Photo by Steve Granitz, WireImage.com)

    But wait a minute -- oh no, there's more! No Rihanna DIDN'T switch the hair up mid-show (same dress but different hair), giving them a second look for her short style. Trading in the precision wisps for a softer upsweep, Miss Ri beckons elegance when she picked up her award. (Photo by Robyn Beck, Getty Images)

3. I saw "stretching" here as a suggestion on Black Voices..relaxing the hair less often which I know has helped with my hair breakage. It is a fact that the following WILL grow anyone's hair and fast= moisture and the correct blend of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. I had thick strong hair until like an idiot I tried to put in a color that was clearly to harsh for my hair. It destroyed it and inches fell :( My hair dresser told me to go to www.horizonshaircare.com The hair vitamins I bought there can only be described as amazing. You will see all the new growth coming in within the first few weeks, and there is just no other oil, or home concotion that can do that for you. Go to the site and you will get that growth and fast! I'm hoping for another 3-4 inches this months.

4. I am sorry but who ever put up the advice about the horizonshaircare.com please don't believe that. Horizonshaircare is nothing more than a BIG SCAM!!!! All they do is target on people who are in need of getting healthy hair. The moment they get your money they take it as fast as they can and never even have the respect to send the vitamins to you and on top of that their phone number on their website is no longer working. Ladies if you want healthy hair take vitamins from GNC not from phony websites like horizonshaircare.
