Top Ten Tresses

Our Top Ten styles in the world were ranked by Hair Fans for the sixth time in a Cutting-Edge Hair News poll 10-17 August 08. Current as of 16 June 09:

#1 - MARIA ELVIRA SALAZAR. A Miami TV talk show host who has impressed us for 20 years -- and she's made her hair even more awe-striking with age. She's an Ultimate 50 member, and now has a Gold Award for one year on this list. (Was #2)

#2 - VICTORIA WARREN. A Boston TV news reporter has climbed to rare Super-Hair heights. Her delicate yet tough bob won the 2008 Super-Hair Wars title, then two more Crown Awards besides -- plus a historic heads-up win over Bonnie Bernstein. (Was #1)

#3 - ALEXANDRA STEELE. The Weather Channel meteorologist with "feathers of Steele" has come back from a couple of near-falls due to dangerous bangs. She has a Crown Award, as well as a Double Platinum Award for three full years on our list.

#4 - DR. LISA MASTERSON. She's not's simply one of The Doctors on a TV talk show. She's a women's health care specialist, whose long hair could distract Hair Fans away from the nurses -- and a 2008 Crown Award winner. (Was #6)

#5 -- NATALIE MAST. She's smart enough to be near the top of her class. She runs so fast that she's nicknamed "Deer." And her bubbling curls can stop Super-Hair hunters cold. This softball star at Concordia-Minnesota is the total package. (Was #4)

#6 -- LISA SYLVESTER. The woman we consider the "mid-length master" (see our Style Profile section) always looks flawless on CNN. She has a Gold Award for one year on our list -- but the embarrassment of being shut out in Super-Hair Wars. (Was #5)

#7 - VANESSA ROUSSO. One of today's hottest poker stars (at the table, we mean), whose strong blonde locks could distract plenty of opponents off their pocket pairs. (Was #8)

#8 - CANDACE PARKER. She can dunk a basketball, help the U.S. team win an Olympic gold medal, be named WNBA Rookie of the Year - oh yes, and have a baby girl. Her medium-long hair is deceptively sturdy. (Was #7)

#9 - SHARON VERSYP. The Purdue women's basketball team reached the Elite Eight this year, and the coach's hairstyle barely budged along the way. She has a Gold Award for one year on our list!

#10 - TONI MARSH. The weathercaster for TV-3 in New Zealand knocked off the defending AAA Cup champion in group play. But what do you think of this newly-trimmed look?

WHO'S NEW: No changes.

Top Five Men's Styles: (Alphabetical order)

ROD BLAGOJEVICH. He's now the ex-Governor of Illinois, but he proved one thing with his media tour. Joy Behar of The View is a Hair Fan, because she tried to muss his -- on the set, no less.

MAX HODGES. To borrow from his description of Danny Moder at Malibu, this TMZ producer/spokesman looks like a "surfer.... who doesn't suck." He even inspired newsroom lookalikes on New Year's Day 2008.

JOHN KERRY. The U.S. Senator in Massachusetts now has a seat secured through 2014. Can any opponent knock his well-secured hair out of line?

BELLO NOCK. Gel plus hairspray plus blowdrying equals a seven-inch high style that holds through stunt after stunt with the Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey circus. We challenge any woman on this list to outlast him -- and we want to be there to see it.

TROY POLAMALU. Don't cut your hair for more than five years, and you might match the style of this Pittsburgh Steeler all-star. But our Cutting Edge Hair News voters have seemed ready to rule him out of bounds.

WHO'S NEW: No changes.
