Popstar Cheryl Cole has ditched her long hair extensions and revealed her natural short crop after she was accused of misleading fans in shampoo advertisements with her fake hair.

The `Girls Aloud` singer known for her dark long mane became the ambassador of a shampoo brand despite the fact that her hair is styled with extensions worth 7000 pounds.

The images lead to complaints that the adverts were misleading, reported Daily Mail online.

Cole`s advertisements for L`Oreal promised to tackle weak, limp, lifeless, dull or straw-like hair, by making it feel stronger, weightless and silkier.

Hairdresser Simon Forbes, who is credited with inventing extensions almost 30 years ago, too had spoken out against the advertisements saying, “Cheryl looks great because of her extensions and L`Oreal are bathing in that light.”
