Amazingly Bad Celebrity Hair

Xtina has sported a lot of questionable hairstyles over the years — from multicolored highlights to crazy cornrows — but her current bleached-blond bob loses major points for lack of originality since it's pretty much a rip-off of Lady Gaga's signature style. And just like lace face masks and circle lenses, there are certain things only Gaga can get away with.

Technically, Brit-Brit's worst hair moment of all time was when she decided that she didn't need any and shaved her head. Sadly, things don't seem to have improved much since her hair has grown back. The pop star constantly steps out with ratty extensions that look like they belong on a Cabbage Patch Kid.

At first we thought that Mena was wearing some kind of strange hat, but after a closer look, we can confirm that the thing sitting on her head is indeed her hair. And the worst part: The updo is French braided up the back, prom-style. That's two major hair offenses rolled into one horrifying look.

It's hard to believe that there was a time when we totally coveted Mischa Barton's mane. Those sun-kissed highlights! Those glossy waves! If the O.C.’s Marissa Cooper, could see the star now, we're certain that she would like, totally barf, over these fake-looking, Barbie-esque extensions.

But now that the color is more gray than purple (not to mention those lunch lady-inspired curls), the only place that this look would be considered trendy is at Bingo Night. Hey, at least we know that Kelly will be a GILF when she’s like 70. Katherine Heigl Photo: Ferdaus Shamim/WireImage.com In all fairness, the actress had to dye her gorgeous blonde hair dark brown for a movie role, so we won't rag on her about the color. But what's her excuse for this '80s-news-anchor-meets-politician's-wife bouffant? We can only imagine how many cans of hair spray had to die to achieve this helmet hairdo. Heidi Klum Photo: Michael Tran/FilmMagic As the mother of four children, it's entirely possible that Heidi Klum didn't have enough time to blow-dry her hair before running to this red carpet event. However, we have a very bad feeling that her wet-looking, slicked-back style was done intentionally. Taylor Momsen Photo: Tim Mosenfelder/Getty Images The Gossip Girl star's Rapunzel-goes-Goth extensions are so long and straggly, we actually miss that weird mullet cut she used to have (and that's saying a lot). Oh, and no one was even remotely surprised when the wannabe rock star recently told mtv.com that she doesn't brush her hair. Cassie Photo: Joe Kohen/WireImage.com If you stood on Cassie's left side, you would assume that she had a lovely head of hair. And you would be half right. Recently, the singer shaved one side of her head, writing on Twitter "sometimes in life you need a change…" Yeah, that's what a few face-framing layers or some pretty highlights are for. Jaime King Photo: John Shearer/WireImage.com At first we thought that the My Bloody Valentine actress was headed to a costume party, where she dressed up as some sort of alien with crazy hair. But she actually sported these finger-in-the-socket curls to an awards show. Yikes!
