These days, it’s hard for us to be shocked by celebrities. Whether they’re making up, breaking up, shaving their heads or bleaching their brows, we often feel like we’ve seen it all. But we found out that some of our favourite Hollywood redheads, brunettes and blondes weren’t actually born with their signature shades and well, colour us surprised.
Some A-listers are known for their hair, like Zooey Deschanel‘s signature thick brown locks and heavy fringe, or Christina Hendricks‘ fiery red hair. As it turns out, they weren’t born this way—Hendricks was actually revealed as at-home dye nice n’ easy‘s Brand Ambassador this morning! Click through the gallery below to see the celebrities whose natural hair colour isn’t what you think it is.

celebrities-natural-hair-colour-anna-paquin
Anna Paquin’s platinum blonde locks are the result of a very good colourist. She was actually born with dark brown hair!
2/10
Amy Adams
It’s impossible to think of Hollywood redheads without Amy Adams popping up on the list, but the actress’ natural shade is actually a subtle strawberry blonde.

celebrities-natural-hair-colour-sofia-vergara
Sofia Vergara got her start to fame as a brunette in Modern Family but has since gone back to her natural lighter tresses.
One of the most surprising celebs on this list, Christina Hendricks has admitted that she’s been dyeing her natural blonde hair red since she was a kid. Translation: there are unfortunately no photos of her natural hue surfacing on the web.

celebrities-natural-hair-colour-dita-von-teese
Dita Von Teese is famous for her pinup aesthetic and we can’t imagine her without her jet-black locks but her shade is actually the result of box hair dye.

celebrities-natural-hair-colour-emma-stone
We met Emma Stone as a pretty redhead in Superbad but it turns out the actress is also a natural blonde. We guess blondes don’t really have more fun.

celebrities-natural-hair-colour-katy-perry
Katy Perry used to look every bit a California Girl with her natural blonde hair, but we prefer her with dark locks (or purple or pink or green).

celebrities-natural-hair-colour-kristen-stewart
This one is well-known but still shocking. Kristen Stewart’s natural blonde hair would be no match for her smouldering gaze and angst-ridden attitude, don’t you think?
9/10
celebrities-natural-hair-colour-leighton-meester
Another natural blonde, Leighton Meester was forced to dye her hair for Gossip Girl and now that the show’s over, the actress regularly switches back and forth between blonde and brunette.

celebrities-natural-hair-colour-zooey-deschanel-1
One of Hollywood’s most famous heads of hair wasn’t born with her signature chestnut locks. Remember the pretty blonde character in Elf? Yup, Zooey Deschanel.
