Josie gets a blue rinse

Poor Josie was the latest housemate to fall victim to a shower of paint yesterday, following Mario and Caoimhe's near miss this morning. Josie enjoyed a marathon preening session in the bathroom, where she performed some intense pampering and grooming treatments including a bizarre shaving sesh which saw the housemate twist into some quite unique shaving positions! What is it with our housemates and their strange shaving habits this year? First Corin and her forehead, then Ben and his neck and now Josie has joined in!

After all her preening (no doubt for the benefit of John James), the manicured housemate then stepped into the shower for a rinse - well that's what she thought anyway! Instead mischievous Big Brother sprayed Josie with blue paint forcing her to return to the tub for another soak! Avatar pulled off the blue smurf look, but for our Josie, blue would never be a winner, especially when trying to woo a certain gorgeous Aussie...

Josie may have more than a blue rinse to worry about after tonight. The house is set to open its doors to three new housemates, two of which are young, attractive females who are bound to cause a bit of rivalry! I'm not just talking about competition for the remaining girls but also Ben's status as Diva of the house! Watch this space.

A close shave for Ben

Following Shabby’s shock exit from the BB house to return to the Shire, housemates were left wondering what to do with themselves. However, Ben did not need much time to decide what will take his mind off the latest house drama - a good old pampering session!

Having decided that his neck was looking disagreeably hairy Ben sought guidance from hair removal queen Corin. Asking if she could help out, Corin (no stranger to bizarre shaving habits), gladly grabbed a trusty razor to set to work on the hairy neck.

Onlookers Steve and Dave watched with amusement as Ben got shaved by Corin, commenting that Ben now had ‘more neck than a giraffe!’ Watch out though, Ben’s moisturising tips caught on with the boys in the house, perhaps this will be the next fad!

Obviously pleased with her handiwork, Corin exclaimed that Ben’s neck was looking as ‘smooth as a baby’s bum!’ Obviously believing that less is more as far as hair goes; perhaps Corin could work her 'de-hairing' magic on Nathan to sort out that mono-brow of his!

Tell us how you like a neck in today's poll.

To monobrow or not to monobrow

OK, so I have been trying my hardest not to mention this as I’m not a monobrow phobic, but I just can’t hold it in any longer…Nathan – will you please do something about that hairy eyebrow of yours!!!

He would give John James a run for his money as best looking male if only he invested in some tweezers or a spot of waxing. Surely Corin, who goes the full hog and draws her eyebrows on, could share some forehead shaving tips with her fellow northern housemate!

Although obviously proud of his almighty brow, Nathan revealed in his first week that he once listed his 6.5 inch eyebrow on eBay to see if anyone would sponsor it, apparently he got up to £5 before the listing was removed. He has also boasted that his eyebrow is the finest monobrow in the Western hemisphere; I think he probably means that his monobrow is the size of the Western hemisphere!

Am I overreacting? What are your thoughts? Should men keep eyebrows natural or is there any harm in a bit of preening to keep them looking tidy? Were eyebrows not intended to be separate from each other?

Shaving...Everywhere?

As day 5 in the Big Brother house arrives some shocking and extreme beauty regimes are revealed...

So I’ve seen girls who shave practically everything, but a forehead? Corin - what’s going on with that? We all know about shaving legs, underarms and even arms but shaving your forehead is a whole new concept to take on board! In case you missed it, Corin was spotted in the bathroom shaving her whole body, face, head and all, as part of her rigid beauty routine. We appreciate that in front of all those cameras a girl wants to look her best but is this going a step too far?

We all get carried away from time to time with our beauty regimes but have you ever gone so far as to shave your forehead? Is there even any hair to shave off on foreheads?! Corin could at least invest in some hair removal cream rather than her bright pink razor.

Corin prides herself on looking like Jordan, although I’m not quite sure what the famous glamour model would make of this bizarre behaviour! What more wacky and wonderful beauty habits does Corin have in store for us? I for one will be keeping a close eye on what else the northern lass gets up to.
