We certainly appreciate all the effort women put into getting dressed in the morning. But can we take a second to talk about all these style tricks they're pulling on us? Wigs, extensions, and weaves. Deceitful waist lines. BUTT PADS. Women are getting more creative and are coming up with new tricks by the day, it seems. They're getting smarter about it, too. Which is why some of us fall victim to them, not knowing what even hit us.

Remeber that episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air where Will and his girlfriend, Kathleen, get stuck in the basement after an earthquake? Will freaks out.

Now ask yourself: Have I experienced this before? If so, pay more attention. If you haven't yet, then you'll want to familiarize yourself with these Women's Style Tricks, so you don't fall for the trap.
