There is no female celebrity I love more than Blake Lively. I loved her in Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, I love her in Gossip Girl (my love for GG is well-documented on this blog), I love that Anna Wintour and Karl Lagerfeld both love her. I love her blonde hair, her fashion sense, and her fearlessness about showing some leg! I love that she’s now the face of Chanel handbags. In short, I love everything about her.
But at last night’s Time 100 Gala, she revealed a new hue: red! I thought I was going to hate it, but I kind of love it. It totally works, especially with the pale turquoise dress and minimalist makeup. To be fair, it’s a strawberry blonde, not a Rihanna-red, but it actually works! Lively revealed to PEOPLE that the change is for her role in the film Hick. Which I will undoubtedly watch and love.
Colorist Rona O’Connor transformed Lively’s locks about a month ago, PEOPLE reports. “I love it,” Lively gushed. “I feel like Ariel.”
I tried to dye my hair red once in college, but it came out that bad faux-maroon color that signals “box hair dye!” like no other color. I haven’t tried dying my own hair much since, but the people at Bigen’s sent this photo and suggested Bigen’s Semi-Permanent Hair Color in Intensive Red, a product formulated with four natural moisturizers (honey, sunflower, beeswax and shea butter) and without ammonia or hydrogen peroxide. Only $4.99, if you’re feeling adventurous and, um, lively, it’s cheap enough to give a shot!
