Human Barbie' Sarah Burge Gives 7-Year-Old Daughter Breast Implant Voucher

Step aside, Botox Mom. There's another candidate for parenting award of the year.

"Human Barbie" Sarah Burge gave her daughter Poppy a $10,000 voucher for breast augmentation surgery for her seventh birthday.

Sarah explained, "Poppy begged me for a boob job, so I gave her the voucher so she can have it after she's 16, when it's legal. If she develops naturally big boobs, she can have something else done with it." Sounds like a reasonable, open-ended gift. Poppy, for her part, said, "I can't wait to be like Mummy with big boobs. They're pretty."

Poppy also received a computer, pink Swarovski crystal ring and matching necklace and a spa weekend from her mother.

The 50-year-old has supposedly dropped more than $800,000 on her own plastic surgeries and plans to have her daughter watch her next series of treatments, slated for later this year. Burge remarked, "I want Poppy to see what will happen. Some people think it's controversial and I get angry when strangers say I'm a bad mother because I don't think there's any harm in giving her this gift."

She added, "Poppy is a normal kid who is good at sports and loves playing outside. Girls don't want Snow White and Cinderella any more....I'm just supporting her and making her dreams come true."

And, really, isn't that all a mother can do?

BIRDS EYE VIEW: FEATHER EXTENSIONS!

Feather hair extensions are taking flight this summer!

Bright and bold plumage peeked out of models' hair on the Fall 2011 runways of Cushnie et Ochs and Gucci, and celebrities like Jennifer Love Hewitt, Selena Gomez (pictured above), Miley Cyrus, Steven Tyler and Hilary Duff have layered their locks with this season's "it" accessory.





While this hair trend echos the boho style of the '70s, it hasn't just returned, according to Hair Flairs Canada (custom hair extensions and accessories manufacturer) it's taken over!


Technology has coupled with an old idea and made it new. We're not looking like Pocahontas.


Faced with a rough economy, I believe that women were in search of a budget-friendly way to dress up their hair. Feather hair extensions are a fun and flirty alternative to costly highlights, and the appeal sparked a frenzy among stylists.

Feather crackheads is what I call them, As a supplier a stylist would want to satisfy the demand but are limited by the availability of the saddle rooster.

Normally reserved for the fly-fishing industry, fashionistas are tapping into the supply of hackle feathers -- the plumage used for this hair service that costs anywhere from $100 and up.

I have noticed that women and not so much as young girls are sitting down in my chair for natural hued feathers because it looks natural and organic.

And feather hair extensions ability to endure stress is an added bonus, It can be curled, shampooed, blow-dried and worn in straight and curly hair. Talk about low-maintenance!

Designers and brands are also catching on and creating modern clip-ins for those who like to constantly switch things up.

LoveChild duo Roxanne Grace and Laura Stewart's feather hair accessories boast a California cool. Known for their "peek-a-boo" pieces, they organically create a story or theme to design around images and ideas from the past, mixing texture and color.

Professional hair tools supplier Sultra has now added Feather Hair Accents to their roster. "Ethereal and edgy at the same time, these feather hair extensions can be worn by anyone to complement any personality or hair color," says Julie Taing,Sephora PRO beauty expert. "Because they easily clip in and out, you can wear only one or don multiple for any style, occasion or outfit."

GROWING OUT YOUR NAILS??

Ladies, it's time to ease up on those nail clippers and invest in some extra polish!

From this season's color blocking to fall's metallic shades, nails have been stealing the spotlight. And now, with an emerging trend of extra-long nails, they're taking it more ferociously than ever.

I first caught on to the talon trend when I saw backstage pictures from New York Fashion Week Fall 2011, and when celebrities like Katy Perry and Rihanna flashed their claws at this year's Grammy Awards. Since then, manifestations have ranged from the raunchy to the terrifying.

Where will this long nail trend wind up? 
One thing is for sure, catfights just got a lot more dangerous.
