Scotty and Lauren, the winner and first runner up of American Idol will be performing on NBC’s Today Show on Thursday morning.  Not only is it exciting to hear that Scotty and Lauren are already hitting the road to perform their country song, they’re appearing on a competing network.

Fox/TV is the home of American Idol while The Voice is on NBC.  Recently there has been some controversy about NBC and whether or not they copied the Fox talent show format with The Voice.

Apparently all is forgiven by Fox and NBC since the two new American Idol talents – the youngest in Idol history – will be performing at NBC.

Although both are extremely talented performers, I will be especially interested in checking out Lauren’s hair since she is being groomed to be another Carrie Underwood in terms of her hair and beauty.

P&G Pioneering the ‘Omics’ Revolution to Solve Molecular Puzzles in Beauty & Grooming

Cutting-edge ‘Omics’ tools transform skin and hair biology to illuminate new pathways to advanced beauty and grooming innovation.

SEOUL, South Korea, May 26, 2011 /PRNewswire/ –Procter & Gamble (NYSE: PG) today unveiled its pioneering efforts in the breakthrough field of ‘Omics’ that is set to solve the molecular puzzles of beauty and leapfrog innovations in this space.

Twenty-one years after the start of the Human Genome Project in 1990, the science of genomics has come of age and led to a new era of ‘Omics’-based research. This approach brings together genomics, proteomics and metabolomics to map the entire biological system, illuminating new pathways to better skin and hair science for years to come.

The New Science of ‘Omics’

While genomics has dominated the beauty and grooming discussion in recent years, new advances in genome sequencing and other ‘Omics’ tools are enabling biologists to shift their attention from studying individual parts within a particular biological system to ‘mapping’ the entire system. From the genome to the proteome to the metabolome – together representing the total approach of ‘systems’ biology.

Our complex human biology means there are more than 20,000 genes, as many as a million proteins and thousands of metabolites underlying our fundamental skin and hair processes – now, for the first time, scientists have the ‘Omics’ tools to piece this puzzle together.

Kardashian sisters Kourt and Khloe gave OK! Magazine an exclusive interview about their personal Summer hair and beauty tips.  One thing the two brunette beauties agreed about was a hot summer braid.

Kourtney, 32, told OK “I love the little small braid, and then my hair is not too done.”  It’s one of her favorite beach looks and if it’s undone, even better. She confessed that a pet peeve of her is when her hair looks “too perfect.”

Except of course if it’s a slicked-up bun and in that case it “needs to be perfect.”  Otherwise for the beach, she likes her hair to “look messy.”

Younger sister Khloe, 26, agrees.  She told OK “I feel like braids are very beach chic – I have no idea if that’s a word – but putting in braids is the easiest thing. Even having a tiny braid, like my little sisters do. It doesn’t pull back your hair, but having them throughout your hair makes you look beautiful and funky – even though you didn’t try. Like, I used to do that in class, when I was in school, I’d do one of my braids, and you’d look that much cooler. [laughs]”

“I don’t like my hair up.”  She said “it’s so much easier to have it pulled off your face, but I don’t feel sexy.”  She said “so I do love having my hair long and beachy, and having a soft wave.” Continue reading “Kourtney And Khloe Agree That Braids Are Hot For Summer” »
