Trend of the day: long, incredibly straight hair. Ayumi Hamasaki either started this trend or got in on it super fast back in December for her Jewel PV and performances.
It's a gorgeous look, although I'm pretty sure Ayu is sporting a wig. Wigs really bug me, but I'm starting to get over it. American stars will sing ballads in bikinis, but Japanese artists are more
concerned with fitting the song. So many hair changes = wigs.This style has been seen a lot on the runways lately, and was very popular at this year's Oscars in February. As you can see on Nicole Kidman-->
One way to get this effect is negative ionic hair straightening, which is actually a Japanese-born method. It makes your hair look perfectly blow-dried 24/7. This is a PERMANENT method though; it can last up to 2 years!
It's probably super expensive too... my hair is naturally straight with a slight wave at the bottom...I think I'll just use a good old flat brush and a hair dryer.

I always believed Ayu was the starter of so many trends. I used to try to recreate a lot of her styles, only to find the items I needed were never in fashion until months later.
Yeah I totally understand. This has happened to me too.
I don't like it on Ayumi H. I like it on Nicole Kidman though. -peaceB
