Entertainers like Tina Turner have been performing in a wigs for decades, but the lace front wig, which allows for a natural-looking part in the hair, has really taken black Hollywood by storm. Beyoncé has been the lace front wig's biggest and most famous fan (or offender, depending on how you feel about lace fronts) and has taken flack from bloggers in the past for being snapped with a visible lace or wig glue along her hairline. Perhaps in response to criticism, Miss Knowles and her famous colleagues have stepped up their wig game. But that doesn't mean they've abandoned the lace front. See if you can spot the wig-loving stars in our gallery.

Guess Who: Celebrity Lace Fronts
When you don't have it, buy it. That's the philosophy of many of today's celebrities who want impossibly thick/straight/wavy/curly hair and have the money to spend top dollar on a lace front wig. Can you guess who some of Hollywood's wig-wearers are?

Oprah's hair is real...stop hating.My hair is long, natural and real and people are always trying to play me with the weave or wig question (not to mention my green eyes which are real too. Black women can have thick long beautiful hair just like me and Oprah. The key is good hair care and no chemicals.

That mess is okay if you're in show business, but in real life that crap looks fake an cheap no matter how much you pay for it. And then to top it off with that cake make-up and you look like a drag queen. I don't think some women spend enough time looking in the mirror at themselves, 'cause if they did they woul know, it's baadd!
