Hal Jackson Dead At 96
WATCH: George Zimmerman 'Comfortable' In Police Station…
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?

Back in the day, wearing a wig was a status thing. What I don't understand is how can Beyonce' be in a hair color commercial? It feels like silk! Yes it does, IT'S A WIG! My mother wore wigs. What she did was make a bang, curl it backwards, and flip it over the wig. Beyonce' is a very pretty no matter what she has on her head!

YOU ALL SOUND LIKE A BUNCH OF IGNORANT SOB'S. PEOPLE (ALL COLORS) WEAR WIGS/WEAVES/EXTENSION BECAUSE THEY WANT TO. IT'S NOT JUST ONE RACE. MY COMMENT TO YOU IS....IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT...CLOSE YOUR EYES AND MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.

I want to know what is wrong with their real hair. I see more and more African American women go completely natural (no hair relaxing or processing) and they look great. Does Beyonce or Tyra think her real hair is ugly? Bigger question is this a form of self hate among African American women who'd rather go through this painful process to have hair of a White Women. The sad thing is that same process will make you lose your hair in the future and you'll need the wigs to give the appearance of a full head of long shiny straight hair. Is it worth it?

phony and fake, girls with NATURAL long pretty hair are the ones that turn heads. real rose or solk rose look similar at a distance but up close there is only one real thing

I never heard of this. Women should just wear their own hair anyway, cause weaves wigs braids just take your hair out..

I think that you guys have nothing left to report about. To get that close and magnify a pic that much so that people can investigate the glue line of a lace front is just a bit much. They are doing it because we as the public would just crucify them if they don't look perfect. This is just overkill.
