Oscar winner Jennifer Lawrence is making headlines for her new dramatic pixie cut. It appears the new look isn't for a new role, but instead, the result of excessive styling for recent roles.
"My hair couldn't get any uglier," she was quoted after the cut. She later clarified her statements by admitting that part of the reason she chopped her hair was because it was "fried from being dyed too much."
Jennifer is hardly the first celebrity starlet to see damage following over-styling. She joins Megan Fox, Carey Mulligan, January Jones and Lady Gaga, who have all admitted to hair woes, and even hair loss, following constant color changes.
Many women don’t realize that chemicals like bleaches and
dyes fundamentally change the structure of their hair, making it weaker and
more susceptible to breakage and damage. Overusing these treatments and frequent color changes can lead to
breakage, hair fallout, loss of density and volume, and in some severe cases,
even traction alopecia.

The tabloids are buzzing about rumors that Megan Fox, who stars in the upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie, suffered hair loss after a salon mishap.
According to a source who spoke to Star Magazine: "She went [back] to a different stylist, and they ended up using a metallic hair dye that reacted to the initial product. Next thing you know, her hair started falling out in clumps!" More details available on Celebitchy.
Is it true? It hasn't been substantiated, so take this latest Hollywood gossip with a grain of salt. However, frequent harsh chemical treatments have been known to cause damage to the hair strands and the underlying follicles - resulting in hair loss in some circumstances. Remember January Jones' admission that frequent hair dyeing had caused hers to fall out? If Ms. Fox really did have a salon mishap though, it's likely to be a temporary problem unless her scalp was actually burned.
Brian Austin Green might be the envy of many men - but it's no thanks to his hair!
The actor, 37, is showing early signs of temporal recession, which isn't uncommon at his age. 30 percent of men in their 30s experience hair loss, and the odds only increase as you approach 40.
The pressure is on to look good when you have Megan Fox on your arm, so it might be time for Brian to visit a certified hair restoration specialist. I'd recommend an FDA-approved medication like Rogaine or Propecia to help stop further recession.
