Amy Winehouse Inspires a Hair Class

Dec 17, 2007 @ 11:44am

Karl Lagerfeld isn't the only one taken by Amy Winehouse:

We hear after his Chanel Paris-Londres show, which he claimed was alight with Winehouse's style, the Bumble & Bumble University team crafted a special hair class to teach their hair flock how to make a modern beehive.

"It was amazing," tells a model from the class. "They made this amazing beehive using only my actual hair, which isn't that long. I looked so cool."

Could the beehive - or maybe we should call it a half hive - replace the traditional up 'do at proms and formal functions? Maybe, but if it needs a whole hair class to figure it out, a flat iron and a cute headband from Goody might be a saner choice for party girls without stylists.

I used to do the half hive myself when I was about ten years old because I was obsessed with doowop and the fifties and sixties. Seriously.

The first time I saw the rehab video i wanted a hive, but my hair is only a little past my shoulders. Question is, how long is amy winehouse's real hair?

I am a child of the 60s and I remember my Mom with her beehive and it staying in for days! Also, I don't know if any of you know this, but when I was in elementary school and junior high, only the girls who were what we called in those days "tramps" (lol now) teased their hair. If you teased your hair and had a beehive, it was a signal that you belonged to "that tribe". Now it's just a style, which I happen to like, along with the cat eye look.

yeah, rocking this look will definitely date you in the future. but instead of being a cool style from the 50s/60s, you'll be branded an amy winehouse imitator. ugh. no thanks.

Oh my gosh Amy looks like she does not even wash her hair or comb it, the least you can do when wearing a beehive is comb it better. Looks like she got a nice beehive done and just wakes up every morning and just say "fuck it", like she fired her hair stylist or even gets he hair done once a year.
