Open Letter to Mel B's Head

3/17/2010 11:18:00 AM by Colleen Moody

Dear Mel B, formerly Scary Spice:

The Real Beauty staff thinks you are a peach. We are jealous of your bod after birthing a child and we love that you can carry on a career without the help of your gal pals, the Spice Girls. But now Mel, something has upset us, and we can't hold it in any longer.

It's your hair. Or lack thereof, we should say. We know this has become a popular trend. Cassie's done it, Rihanna, heck even Carmen Electra went halfsies on her head. But really, do you want to be a part of a trend that started with Britney Spears losing a few of her marbles and deciding to take a razor to her head? We think not.

You see Scary, we love changing it up, but let's try something a little less drastic, like changing your hair color, or buying a new feather headband. We can't imagine growing out one side of your hair can be a pleasant experience for anyone. Imagine baby hair peach fuzz on your head for the next six months. Gross, right?

Plus, long hair is in! These bombshell celebs know that long, voluminous locks are sure to turn some heads. Your new 'do will turn heads too, but not in a good way.

We hope you take our advice seriously, we just want the best for you. Girl Power is one thing, but maybe you should take a tip from Lady Gaga and just walk around without pants for a while. That seems to get the point across just fine.

Warm wishes,

The Real Beauty Team
