Good hair. Is there such a thing? Comedian Chris Rock tackles the issue of how society determines what exactly is 'good' hair in his latest film, aptly-named 'Good Hair.' So, while Rock looks at the culture of hair, CTV.ca decided to go the other way and reveal candid shots of stars having bad hair days. Because sometimes bad hair happens to good people.

Follicle failure:
Sanjaya Malakar
Trademark tresses:
Overgrown Mohawk never worn quite the same way

Follicle failure:
Russell Brand
Trademark tresses:
Terrifying teased 'do

Root resolution:
Wet. Shampoo. Rinse. Repeat

Follicle failure:
Snoop Dog
Trademark tresses:
Uses his locks to channel his inner six-year-old girl

Follicle failure:
Amy Winehouse
Trademark tresses:

Root resolution:
Clean up her act first. Then move on to cleaning up that hair.

Follicle failure:
Brad Pitt

Follicle failure:
Pamela Anderson
Trademark tresses:
Barbie mane - after a drive in Ken's convertible
Scalp sin status:

A rainbow of offenses
Scalp sin status:
How can a man who makes a living by making catty-comments about celebrity pictures not see the tragedy of his own bad hair?

Kanye West and Amber Rose
Trademark tresses:
Buzzed-down buddies
Scalp sin status:

Helena Bonham Carter
Trademark tresses:
Jagged bangs combined with an updo that is held together with multiple clips.
