Beyoncé's Curly Bangs - Fierce or Fugly?

Beyoncé lets her curls do their thang. Photo: Freddie Baez, Startraks

Beyoncé has been taking more fashion/beauty risks lately -- a trait we 300% support -- and the mega-star is known for looking glam and polished every time she steps out.

But we're not sure about these curly bangs. On the one hand, she's out enjoying a leisurely lunch with her husband (um, Jay-Z) and shouldn't be expected to be "done" all the time. If she wants to let her hair go au naturel over the weekend, she has every right.

On the other hand, cutting bangs into curly hair is a responsibility that shouldn't be taken lightly. You know going in that your air-drying days are over, lest you end up looking like a poodle.

Or, is this just a case of hat head on a killer new cut?

So, you tell us, what you think of Beyoncé's low-maintenance look: hair hit or miss?

I LOVE Acai-eez BURN. Acai-eez BURN http://www.acai-eez.com has helped me to lose over twenty five pounds! Acai-eez BURN contains acai berries, green tea, grapefruit, kelp, and apple cider vinegar that work together to suppress the appetite, increase the metabolism and gives you a natural energy boost that lasts all day. Acai-eez BURN NEVER auto bills or auto ships like most of the acai berry companies who offer a free trial and then sign you up on a monthly auto bill program, with Acai-eez, you order the product whenever you need it! I feel amazing now that I have lost weight. Acai-eez BURN has made the difference in my weight loss. Buy 3 get 1 free to save money while you lose weight!

Why can't celebrities step out of the house with someone buzzing around them to go home and type up a bunch of crap about them that no one cares about. Here's a newsflash: Celebrities poop. Some of them eat ramen noodles. Alot occasionally go for a week or so without a haircut. And I bet you more than half of them watch porn. And guess what? So do I. Who cares.

I am in love and his name is Mr. Power Colon Cleanse ( http://tr.im/PowerColonCleanse ) ! This is by far the best cleansing product available. I saw it on Oprah and thought I would give it a try. Power Colon Cleanse has pretty much changed the way I live my life. My daily chores are done in a breeze and I have more energy, not to mention more time in my day since I don't mind jumping out of bed in the mornings at 7:00 am now. This is not just a cleanser. It is also a detox. I can feel it working and have only been using it for 6 weeks.
I owe my life to http://tr.im/PowerColonCleanse

I had been overweight for the past five years. I had tried almost everything in the market, right from taking diet pills to enrolling in a gym but nothing really worked. Yes I did lose a few pounds but nothing substantial. It was then that a friend recommended Acai Slim ( http://cli.gs/AcaiSlim ) to me. I have been using the product for about a month now and have slimmed down considerably. I have actually started to wear all those dresses that I had put off for so long. The product is definitely one of the best weight loss products in the market today. I have already finished two bottles of Acai Burn and am on my third bottle now. It totally changed my life! Not only did I lose a lot of weight quickly, I have also never felt more energetic and so full of life!

What ever happen to the saying, "If you can't say something nice.......then keep your mouth shut"? It is ALWAYS the people with the low self esteem that cuts everyone else down.

Beyonce's adorable...leave her alone!
Can't celebs have a day to themselves? She's obviously not performing or on camera (except for the jerk who took and published this shot), can't she just not be worried about her looks for one day without criticism? I suggest anyone who thinks this is a disaster go look in the mirror for a minute. Are you 100%?
Yeah, didn't think so.

What's the prob? Are we so used to celebs groomed within an inch of their lives that we freak out when we're shown that they are actually humans just like us? I have curly hair, and mine looks just like Beyonce's here....on a GOOD day!
