The men in white coats have been and gone, the votes have been counted and verified, and there really is no more than a hair’s breadth separating these two style icons.
Each week Cheryl and Dannii impress us with the glamorous and imaginative ways they display their luscious locks, but when we asked ‘Whose hair do you prefer?’ it seems the question polarised the nation in a way we thought only John and Edward could.
In the 48 hours you’ve had to cast your votes 6,270 have pledged your allegiance – either to the flowing mane of Cheryl Cole or the sophisticated bob of Dannii Minogue… and now we can reveal the results of the 2009 Battle of the barnets.
Dannii brushed-up nicely and received 3,091 of your ballots giving her a very respectable 49% of the vote… but streaking ahead with 3,179 pledges was Cheryl giving her a marginal 51% victory.
How close was that?
Next week we’ll ask you to vote on the new and inventive ways our other two judges style their hair… actually on second thoughts…
