Halle Berry

In Xmen and BAPS Ms. Berry sported golden locks.
I think she looks kinda barbie-esque in the pink suit!

Tila Tequila




Say what you will about this stripper/model/mistress of myspace/reality tv star Tila Tequila but she looks super cute blond!

Keyshia Cole




I still have yet to hear one song she actually sings but of course she caught my eye with her blondness....on the vibe cover her hair is looking quite similar to the pix of Kelis I posted!

Kelis





I liked Kelis when she first burst onto the scene with a mop of messy multi-colored curls. In these pix she is sporting a Betty Grable-ish do in color and style. The updo,clothes and marilyn monroe style makeup have a very vintage vibe to them.
Rock on.

Ganguro/Yamamba








GANGURO: This is the opposite of ganjiro. They want to have the most possible tanned skin and dye their hair with light tones, they also wear light or pastel make up to make contrast with their faces and it seems the ultrabronzed californian style.
YAMAMBA: This is the most extremely provocative kind of kogal, they also have tanned skin, bleached hair, and white make-up that seems like a panda bear.
The Yamamba is considered a more extreme version of Ganguro.
the look is lots of makeup,deep tans or fake-n-bakes (to give the normally pale japanese tones ranging from golden bronze to chocolate), and bleached blond hair.
Both looks are rife with contreversy as many feel that the japanese are in a sense emulating black face and or ashamed of their heritage. I find that notion ludicrous, there is nothing wrong with stepping out of the beauty box. I love this style! Kawaii!

Eve






Miss Eve has come a long way from her early days. Her stylist needs a big hug,flowers and a thank you card. Seriously.

Self Made Blond

most of the memorable blonds of our time have been self made, marilyn monroe, jean harlow, pamela anderson, jayne mansfield, etc
but the focus of this blog is non white beauties who decided to step outside of the box and live life
as a "self made blond" . While it is common and acceptable for a white female to decide to go blond many non white females who decide to become smb's are met with all kinds of reactions from
hostile (I hate her hair that color it looks unatural!), to accusatory (oh she hates being (insert "race" here) but who cares about all that judgemental harshness? some women just look better blond period regardless of race. I love to see women from groups who arent naturally blond with flaxen locks. The blonder the better!!! So whether by wig, extensions, bleach I salute the self made blond.
Did I mention that I was a self made blond?
