Each new role, filming a video, or simply appearing on the red carpet requires famous women to change their appearance.

And, as a rule, the matter is not limited to fashionable makeup or haircut. In order to shine even brighter, the star beauties are ready for the most drastic step - changing their hair color!

True, if someone takes a risk and then drinks champagne, then for someone the desire to experiment ends in complete failure!

Remembering the actress who never leaves the ranking of the sexiest women on the planet, we always imagine her only with blond locks. And nothing else! Alas, Scarlett had no idea about this and the result is obvious. Fortunately, the actress quickly came to her senses and corrected the mistake.

But the most important “beauty” of television screens has problems with accuracy and vice versa! Julia Roberts suits all shades of red, copper and even dark chestnut, but not blonde!

Knowing today's Victoria Beckham as the standard of style and taste, few can believe that in her youth she experimented with her appearance to the fullest and not always successfully. And if fans can still forgive her for daring haircuts and styling, then she will never bleach her naturally black hair!

Agree, comments are unnecessary here!

But actress Drew Barrymore can easily be called a hooligan when it comes to changes in appearance. And it seems that in the palette of colors and shades there is not one that she has not tried on herself. But you must admit, a radical white-black ombre is already too much!

It’s rare that natural brunettes manage to “painlessly” turn into a blonde. But in the case of Anne Hathaway, it's like a clear reminder that it's better to never do this. Never!

How come you also don’t recognize this girl without her blond curls? Apparently, actress and singer Ashlee Simpson with her new red hair had to prove so often that she was a fairly well-known character in the world of show business, that it was easier to just give up and quickly return everything to its place. Which is exactly what she did!

Every platinum blonde's nightmare is yellow hair. That’s why girls strive to get only to the best masters of their craft, so that later they don’t cry bitterly, holding burnt strands in their hands. And Lindsay Lohan's fans still can't decide whether the actress dyed her hair herself or simply visited an economy-class hairdresser, because her yellow blonde seems worse than that nightmare to them!

Once a year, as scheduled, the most popular star of her own family reality show, Kim Kardashian, turns from a fiery brunette to a blonde. True, this failed experiment does not last long - no more than a month, but this time is enough for several tons of criticism to pour into the “bright” head of the TV personality!

There comes a moment in every girl’s life when it seems that hair color can change her life (personally and for the better). And the most famous women in this matter are no exception. It’s interesting whether such “shock therapy” helped Cameron in 2006 or not, but it certainly made a splash. Fortunately, today the actress’s face once again lights up with her signature smile, her ring finger is decorated with a ring, and she no longer sees an alternative to her blond locks. And rightly so!

I am naturally blonde, my real hair color is dark blonde. Although I never felt blonde, and I have been changing my hair color to suit my mood for a long time.

Julia Roberts

How many times have you watched Pretty Woman? This film, according to an IMDB survey, is one of the few films that is watched over and over again. And Julia Roberts, who played the main role in it, has remained one of the most beloved actresses of several generations of women for the third decade.

As Julia herself repeatedly said in her interviews, she did not intend to be an actress: she was attracted to a career as a veterinarian since childhood, but after graduating from school, the girl changed her mind and entered the journalism department. Having received her diploma, Julia looked around and decided to go to Hollywood, where by that time her brother, Eric Roberts, had already settled. In 1984, the young girl unsuccessfully auditioned for a role in the famous Santa Barbara and other TV series, and the actress played her first more or less noticeable role only 4 years later in the film “Mystical Pizza.” After this film, Roberts starred in another film, “Steel Magnolias,” where she brilliantly played the role of a girl with diabetes. For this role, the young actress received the 1989 Golden Globe in the category “Supporting Actress”, and made critics pay attention to her.

Just during this period, Roberts was finishing filming a film with the working title “$3000” - if you remember, this is the amount that Richard Gere’s character promised a prostitute for spending a week with him. There was no happy ending in the film's script: it was initially assumed that Roberts' character suffers from drug addiction and is unable to fulfill Edward's (Gere's character) condition of spending a week without drugs, so he kicks her out of the fairy tale after a few days. However, after the success of Steel Magnolias, the director removed all the heavy scenes, changed the name of the film and reshot the ending. Critics did not appreciate the resulting picture, calling it superficial and stupid, but viewers did not agree with them - “Pretty Woman” collected $180 million and brought Roberts an Oscar nomination.

The actress’s calling card is her soft voice and dazzling smile; she inherited her unconventional Hollywood appearance from her ancestors, who included English, Irish, Scottish, German and Swedish immigrants. Julia's smile is so widely known that when in 2004 in Bulgaria, scientists removed the mummy of a woman who lived 90 thousand years ago from an ancient burial, she was officially given the name “Julia Roberts”, since the mummy had magnificent teeth.

After “Pretty Woman,” the actress starred in various films, including very serious dramatic roles, but the public always expected romantic comedies from her, and the most successful films in her career were rom-coms. In 2007, “My Best Friend’s Wedding” was released, one of the highest-grossing films of the decade, after which the actress moved to the list of the highest paid actresses on the planet, where she remains to this day.

I don't pose nude. Playing a role with clothes on is an art, playing a role without clothes is a documentary. And I don't want my math teacher to know what my butt looks like.

The actress has warm friendly relations with the cult actors of her generation - Bruce Willis, Brad Pitt and George Clooney. When Pitt and Clooney were preparing to film Ocean's 11, they invited Roberts to act in an original way - they sent her a letter with the phrase “we heard you charge twenty for the film” and a check for $20. This was a hint at an interview in which the actress stated that she was not interested in a fee of less than $20 million.

Julia Roberts had a short marriage to singer Lily Lovett, and dated many famous actors (for example, Matthew Perry, one of the characters in the TV series “Friends”). In 2002, the actress married cameraman Daniel Moder, with whom she lives in still married. The wedding ceremony took place at midnight, in a narrow circle, where only Bruce Willis was a celebrity.

In 2005, at the age of 37, the actress gave birth to twins, and in 2007 the couple had a third child. The family lives in New York or on a ranch in New Mexico; the actress’s fortune today is estimated at $250 million.

Julia Roberts, the same red-haired beast from the cult melodrama “Pretty Woman,” not only won millions of hearts of both men and women around the world, but also managed to maintain her special attractiveness for 20 years, despite the fact that her style has changed several times .

Her glam team of stylists doesn't take all the credit, though. “Julia hardly needs me,” says hairstylist Serge Normand of the famously curly-haired Hollywood star and Oscar winner.

And, according to makeup artist Genevieve Guerre: “Julia loves subtle, sophisticated makeup. She’s pretty special, and her makeup is always the same.”

The star of the new film “Eat, Pray, Love,” instead of modern achievements in cosmetology, says that her elixir of youth lies in the form of her three children and loving husband Danny Moder. Makeup artist Genevieve Guerre said: “Now that she has children, she has reached her peak beauty.”

Let's see how the style, and with it Julia Roberts's hairstyle, has changed over the years:

1985: The gorgeous teen graduates from Campbell High School in Smyrna, Georgia.

1989: The "Steel Magnolias" star shows off her luscious curls as if to say, "I'm just a girl from a small town in Georgia with a giant, ridiculous dream!"

1991: Julia Roberts cut off her chic locks and dyed her hair blonde for the role of Tinker Bell in the film “Captain Hook.”

1994: The star of the comedy “I Love Trouble” played up her role with a sexy haircut and a crowning head of red hair.

2001: The natural blonde appeared on the big screen in the super popular film with Hollywood megastars “Ocean's Eleven” and returned to her natural color, having done her hair with clearly separated curls.

2007: Having played in the film “Charlie Wilson's War,” Julia Roberts again returned to the red shade of red-red hair, the usual length and curls - everything the guys like.

2009: After filming Nothing Personal, Julia Roberts told Entertainment Weekly: “Doing a movie while being the mother of three children under the age of 3? This is an achievement that I am proud of!”, and again the actress became a gorgeous blonde!

2010: The Golden Globe nominee hit the red carpet with beautiful golden locks and her signature super charming smile.

We already know that the main role in determining the color type is played by skin tone and hair color, because they carry most of the pigment. The color of the eyes, eyebrows and lips are less important here.

Skin tone cannot be changed, we are born with it, it is inherent in nature. Yes, you can tan, but this will not make your skin warmer or colder, just darker. So, people with cool skin tones have a grayish tan, although at first glance it seems warm.

What about hair color? Yes, anything, you can change it at least every day: you can paint it, you can do highlights, you can stick on strands, put on a hat, or even shave your head. This is, of course, very cool, but there is also risk. After all, what happens to our color type? Is he changing?

Yes and no. If the change was successful, then no, or only a little. If the hair color did not suit us, then we did not change the color type, but “knocked it down”. And this is very important to understand.

Here's a classic example that I see every day. Older German women and their hairdressers love this hair color (note the natural eyebrow color):

Greetings from Lola and this beautiful woman:

Here is an example typical of the Russian public:

No one doubts that there is something wrong with the girls’ hair color, namely, complete disharmony and the color type is off.
So what to do if your hair color does not suit you or you simply want changes, but still want to look harmonious, emphasize the beauty given to you by nature, and remain in your color type.

To do this, you need to take a closer look at your natural hair color. Two parameters are important for us:
- light dark
- warm/cold
With the first one, I think everything is quite simple. Therefore, let's move straight to the second.

Cool hair color, regardless of its darkness, always seems somewhat grayish, muted; even in the brightest sun it does not turn golden.

Warm shades of hair are shimmering with gold, they can be both dark and light, from honey to fiery red:

And so that everything doesn’t seem so simple and clear, there are hair colors that are in the middle, they are no longer cold with an ashy tint, but not overtly warm either:

I hope the difference is obvious and understandable. If not, write in the comments, we will look for the right photos together :-)

So, let’s define ourselves into one of three categories and learn the rule by heart: I PROMISE NOT TO PUT IN TONES WARMER THAN MY NATURAL! Of course, there are exceptions to this rule, like any other, but they are few and we will talk about them.

If your hair has warm undertones, then you're in luck, dye your hair in honey, red and gold shades as much as your heart desires. Oh, how I envy you :-) You can even go for cooler shades by adding strands (just strands!) of cool tones, but avoid overtly ashy, grayish shades. Julia Roberts with warm hair tones:

If you have cool-toned hair, stay with it. Believe me, the mousy gray hair color that irritates you looks much more noble on you than red, red and yellow-white. This can be seen very clearly in the examples at the beginning of the article. Here are a few more unsuccessful transformations:

You can dye your hair a lighter or darker tone, but not a warm one. Dilute the ashy tone with light strands of cool shades. In some cases, if the skin has a warm undertone, you can add thin strands and warm shades. The main thing is not to overdo it, it’s better to start with 5-10 strands and see if the shade of the skin turns yellow or pale. In my opinion, stylist Jennifer Aniston does an excellent job with this, the hair color is not cold, not warm and looks very natural due to the strands of different shades:

If you cannot accurately define yourself in the warm or cold category, and are in the middle, then do not hope, the rule written above in capital letters works exactly the same for you :-) Yes, you can dye your hair in warm shades, but they should not be warmer than your own, frankly red or red. But with a clear conscience you can afford to highlight strands of warm tones.

I've talked a lot about warm and cold shades. What about dark and light? It is important to remember here that dark hair colors age you and make your facial features sharper. This isn't always a bad thing, by the way, just remember that. And if we are talking about naturalness here, then I think the transition from blond to soft chestnut will be quite enough, it is not at all necessary to dye your hair in the shade “crow’s wing”, just like going from a brunette to a platinum blonde.

Often you don't get the right color the first time. Find a good hairdresser and work with him towards the perfect hair color that will complement you without overshadowing your natural beauty and make your skin and eyes glow.

Another star who decided on an image was. The actress recently appeared on the Great Mental Challenge show, during which she talked about filming the series Homecoming and also showed off her new hair color. The actress became blonde again.

Let us remind you that this fall the Amazon channel will present the psychological thriller “Coming Home,” in which Roberts played the main role. The plot centers on social worker Heidi, who works for a secret government organization and helps soldiers return to normal life after the war. The series is based on Gimlet Media's popular series of podcasts in the United States, which touch on important social issues.

During the show, Roberts explained how excited she was to be working with longtime friend, 54-year-old actor Dermot Mulroney, again. The stars starred together in the film My Best Friend's Wedding, released in 1997, and in the film August: Osage County (2013).

According to Roberts, she was not looking for options to return to television when representatives of the series approached her with their offer.
