It seems that some fashions, although immensely popular with celebrities, fashion magazines and the general public, are not the most practical for female drivers. The latest craze for long fringes is putting people on the road in danger. Eye-skimming fringes, copied from celebrity styles, mean some female drivers are in danger of a disaster, a survey revealed.

The survey revealed that 67% of women have a hairstyle which could, potentially, fall into their eyes while they are driving a vehicle. In this poll, which was conducted of 1,000 female drivers, half admitted they did not tie back their hair before embarking on a journey. 33% did not think it was necessary to control their hair before driving and 8% said they did not want to ruin their hair.

Of the women surveyed 1% admitted that their hairstyle had caused an accident, near-miss or a sudden, unexpected manoeuvre due to their vision being temporarily impaired. The survey was conducted by women’s car insurance company Sheila’s Wheels, and also discovered three out of five women take their hands from the wheel to rearrange their hair or move it out of their eyes.

Sheila’s Wheels’ spokesperson, Jacky Brown commented: “Not many women think of their hair as a potential driving distraction. But with the latest trends requiring styling round the face and eyes, it’s essential we are aware of safety.”

According to the survey, women in Northern Ireland were the most fashion conscious, 80% regularly change their hairstyle to keep up with the latest trends. North-east England’s women were least concerned about following fashion trends and south-west England’s women drivers have the most practical driving haircuts.

Brown pointed out: “There are so many hair accessories available that can secure hair in place without compromising style. It’s just about finding the right one for you and making sure it’s handy whenever you step behind the wheel.”

High profile hairdresser, Martyn Maxey commented on the study, he said: “For some celebrities, a change of hairstyle is headline news. Take Kate Moss and The Fringe for example – in recent weeks we’ve been inundated with requests for the long fringe and despite it falling over the eyes, it’s now a fashion statement and people want it.”

Maxey continued by giving tips for having beautiful hair and driving safely, he recommended keeping a hairband, headband or alice band in the car’s glove compartment at all times. He said that for the extremely style conscious there are many different styles of hair slides available to clip long fringes or styles that may interfere with driving, back.

Other suggestions he makes are to leave a chunky velcro roller in a long fringe while driving to keep it out of your eyes, when you arrive at your destination your fringe will be perfectly styled, for the ultimate glamour, a pair of designer sunglasses propped on top of your head will keep all stray hairs out of your face.

Fashionable hairstyles are obviously not only going to be practical for driving, however it is easy enough for women to keep a range of hair accessories in their car to minimise risks of accidents due to something as silly as hair in the eyes.

So, is it worth risking accidents to stay stylish in the car? It seems that it is not only the risk of hair falling into the eyes and obstructing vision that is a problem, but also women removing both their attention from the road and their hands from the wheel to rearrange their hair.

It seems women should be more concerned about their safety , that of any passengers and others on the road, than they should be about the immaculate state of their appearance, namely their hair.

After many tumultuous events in her life, American pop princess Britney Spears is now back on her toes to continue her glittering career and leave her experiences behind. In a recent interview, Spears who rose to fame at such young age admitted her past mistakes and revealed she already learned from it.

Spears said after what happened in her life she is very grateful that the world is giving her a second chance to continue with her career amidst the controversies she faced in life. “A lot of people thought I wouldn’t make it. People thought I was finished, didn’t they?” Britney said. The pop princess said now that the storm had finally stopped she had already matured and is now happy and contented with her life.

“I’m not sad any more”, the pop princess said.

She said her family especially her parents and her two young boys were the ones that inspired her to get back to her bearing and moved on from the bad things that happen in her life. Spears cited the efforts of her father to bring her back to her senses as one of the factors that brought her back to the mainstream of the entertainment industry. Aside from her family and kids, one man that makes Spears happy these days is her reported boyfriend and agent Jason Trawick.

In many various occasions, the two were seen showing each other affection the latest of whom was in Bahamas where the couple and Spear’s children had a brief getaway. The close relationship of the two even fuelled persistent reports that they will soon tie the knot. However, a close associate of Spears deny such rumors saying the reported 2009 December wedding of the two are not true.

The associate who refused to be name said that although the two love each other dearly they have no plans yet to get married soon. If indeed the two will enter the sacrament of matrimony, it would be the third time that the pop princess will be married. Spears was previously married to childhood friend Jason Allen Alexander on January 3, 2004, at The Little White Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas.

The marriage lasted 55 hours, ending with an annulment stating that Spears “lacked understanding of her actions to the extent that she was incapable of agreeing to marriage because before entering into the marriage the Plaintiff and Defendant did not know each others’ likes and dislikes, each others’ desires to have or not have children, and each other’s desires as to State of residency.

In July 2004, Spears announced her engagement to Kevin Federline, three months after they met. Federline had recently been in a relationship with actress Shar Jackson, who was eight months pregnant with their second child. These initial stages were chronicled in Spears’s first reality show Britney & Kevin: Chaotic, which aired on UPN in May and June 2005.

On the night of September 18, Spears married Federline in a surprise, non-denominational ceremony at a residence in Studio City, California, filing legal papers on October 6.  After the marriage, Spears announced via her website that she would be taking another career break to start a family. She gave birth to her first child, Sean Preston Federline, nearly one year later, on September 14, 2005 in Santa Monica, California by a scheduled caesarean section.

On her second full-length album, Lindsay Lohan tries to leave her Disney image behind for good. And what better way to do it than by starting off with the stark “Confessions of a Broken Heart (Daughter to Father),” in which the singer wrestles with her stormy relationship with her felonious father? Lohan Sr. also is the object of the tortured “My Innocence” (as in, Dad, you took it away.) But the best tracks here are the ones on which Lohan Jr. spares us the angsty therapy and del (more…)

Debbie Gibson never recorded anything as sexy as Britney Spears’s white-funk smoker “…Baby One More Time.” Unfortunately, neither does the 17-year-old Spears’s debut album contain anything else that remotely approaches that instant hit single. A few of the disc’s cuts are pleasantly catchy, but too much of its space is given over to icky ballads (”E-Mail My Heart”?) and other unconvincing moves such as the dancehall-lite “Soda Pop.” –Rickey Wright
