Carrie Underwood likes her hair big -- the bigger the better. She jokes with People.com that her big hair makes her look smaller. And truth be told, when she leaves the hairdresser, she poufs it up even higher.

Carrie says her love of tall tresses comes from her love of her country music icons. "I mean for me, it was all about country women. They like sparkles, they like big hair and they wear big hair. That was gorgeous to me and it still is.”

Carrie, big hair and all took, her Blown Away tour to Seattle and Portland over the weekend.
