9 Craziest Lady Gaga Hairstyles…

9 Craziest Lady Gaga Hairstyles…

Now we all know that Lady Gaga, more fondly known as Mother Monster goes all out to stand out and that almost always guarantees a bizarre ensemble. She defines OTT and it’s not just in the clothes (if you can call them that) but also her kooky shoes, her larger than life accessories and her Crazy Hairstyles. In the spirit of Halloween, I thought why not pay homage to some of  the Craziest Lady Gaga Hairstyles over the years. Best keep an open mind and mouth while checking out my picks for the Craziest Lady Gaga Hairstyles.

1. The Bow

Let’s start with the hairstyle that went viral shall we? Of course I’m talking about THE bow that was first seen in her Poker Face video that eventually went on to fascinate people far and wide for a very long time. I can definitely see the appeal though. What’s not to love about bows? They’re cute and the top of your head is as good a place as any to sport one. You Tube is full of how-to videos but if you are lazy like me, you can just buy one of these at Amazon.com.

2. Variations of the bow

I guess at some point the regular oversized bow on the top of your head just gets boring and you need variations,especially when you are Lady Gaga. So we saw the poodle-puff with lavender bows and then there were the two dual colored Mickey Mouse variations and that ladies is the story of how the bow went from cute to crazy.

3. Benjamin Button

This is by far one of the craziest Lady Gaga hairstyles I have ever seen! T’was June 2009 and Lady Gaga had just arrived at the Manchester Academy in England to show her support for those affected with HIV with what appeared to be a giant button sown to her head. Well, who needs sunglasses when you have a button of hair to keep the sun away…

4. Gaga mixes it up

The occasion: The Brit Awards, 2010. The hair: Lady Antoinette meets cotton candy. Of course when the hair is this dramatic, the outfit’s got to be sheer lace. She looks like an alien creature with evil powers et al and I love it!

5. Gaga goes Teal

I promised myself that I wouldn’t make any “green with envy” references but look how fantastic she looks in that teal bob. I could never pull that off! Okay, maybe that Marge Simpson-esque beehive makes me feel a wee bit better about my normal self. Just a little bit.

6. Lady in Red

That sheer red lace outfit is definitely something but the hair is just the perfect cherry on the cake. I honestly believe that although this is one of the craziest Lady Gaga Hairstyles ever, it looks pretty fantastic on her because of the regal, almost sun goddess like look to it. Warning: Do not imitate. No, seriously, don’t!

7. The Telephone Looks

Remember the video of her song, Telephone? I could do a whole new post on the craziest Lady Gaga Hairstyles (and outfits) based on that video alone but for now I will pick my two favorites. Soda can curls, anyone? That’s pretty innovative recycling I have to say. Also, what better hairstyle for a song named telephone than to have an actual telephone of hair stuck to your head. Oh Gaga.

8. Crazy Hat Lady

Sometimes it’s the hat that maketh the hair. Remember the very “architectural” hat at the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards? And if that is not unique enough for you, how about this very unusual silver lobster hat that she wore to dinner? It does NOT get any more kitsch. Let’s just hope she did not go to a seafood restaurant that night.

9. Hairy Scary Monster

And last but not any less crazy are Lady Gaga’s hairy scary ensembles. Is it still called a “hairstyle” if the entire outfit is made of hair and isn’t it just a little bit creepy to be wearing all that hair?! Oh wait, we’re talking about the woman who wears raw meat.
After all the Craziest Lady Gaga Hairstyles we’ve just seen, I just have one question: Isn’t that too much weight for the top of someone’s head? I would imagine it would be hard to walk or even sit but I guess that’s what makes Lady Gaga special in her own weird way. I hope you enjoyed gaping and sniggering at the Craziest Lady Gaga Hairstyles. Don’t forget to add your own finds to the list and until next time, put your paws up little monsters…

7 Tips for Killing those Crazy Cravings …

7 Tips for Killing those Crazy Cravings …

Everybody craves some kind of food sometime. Not to be too TMI-licious, but there are certain times of the month when I crave chocolate and salt at the same time, and must have it or I will die. Well … or everyone around me probably wishes they would, actually. Anyway! Food cravings are awful, because you know you’ll never be satisfied unless you fulfill them – right? Maybe … but before I say another word, here are some tips for killing those crazy cravings before they completely do you in.

1. Let It Pass

Sometimes, the best tip for killing those crazy cravings is not to do anything about them. Just let them pass by on their own. I know that sounds easier in theory than it could ever be in practice, but it does work. You just have to remember that when a craving starts, especially if it’s a craving for something sweet, it will pass quickly. Cravings are kind of like tantrums. If you get your mind off of it by doing something else, then you won’t even notice it’s there gnawing at you.

2. Don’t Forbid Yourself

Speaking from painful, awful, miserable experience, the worst thing you can do to yourself is cut something out of your diet. Cut out carbs, you’re going to start craving bread. Cut out sugar, you’re going to be a raging lunatic until you get some chocolate or candy or something. Tell yourself you absolutely cannot have potato chips ever in life, and you’ll probably go on a Lays-stealing rampage. What you have to do instead is learn how to…

3. Moderate Yourself

The best tip for killing those crazy cravings is to learn moderation. You can have an ice cream sundae now and then. You can eat your Pringles. You can even have a Big Mac or a Whopper every so often if you want to, you just have to remember not to overindulge. When you start thinking it’s okay to have cookies, a piece of pie, or an order of lovely, greasy fries every day, that’s when you’re in trouble. Treating yourself once in a while isn’t going to hurt you, though.

4. Stay Away from Sugary Substitutes

I know that a lot of my cravings are geared toward sweet, sugary things. If you’re then same way, then the worst thing you can do is turn to sugar substitutes instead. There are dozens of problems associated with these, and the fact is that they won’t really curb your cravings. On the contrary, your craving will just come back with a raging vengeance in a little while. It’s far better to…

5. Eat a Healthier Alternative

Instead, you need to find healthy alternatives for your favorite vice foods. If you crave sweet things, there are lots of fruits that are just as sweet as candy. If you like potato chips, even, you’ve got some leeway there. Trust me, when I’m having those salty cravings, I used to reach right for the greasy potato chips, but lately I’ve substituted them with healthier alternatives. Baked chips are better, for instance, and I’m a sucker for Sun Chips – both of which are fine as long as you remember moderation!

6. Exercise

Without question, the best tip for killing those crazy cravings is to exercise. This is one of the many things that will take your mind off your craving. Besides, when you exercise, your body releases endorphins, which will not only make you feel great, they will also curb your appetite – and kill your craving for junk foods.

7. Relax

A lot of people eat when they are stressed out, emotional, sad, and so on – and they tend to reach for the junk food first. As a recovering emotional eater myself, I can testify to this. You know what it’s like, you get stressed out and automatically reach for something that tastes wonderful and overflows with calories, and it does make you feel better … for about five minutes. Rather than simply covering up your feelings with bad foods, try to relax more, whether that means exercising, taking a nap, taking a bath, or reading a book.

I don’t know about you, but I found a lot of these tips for killing those crazy cravings quite helpful. Hopefully, there as easy to put into practice as they are to understand, though. What do you do when you’re having raging food cravings?
