Blake Lively’s the quintessential California girl, so when she dyed her naturally blonde hair, you could hear jaws drop everywhere. While we don’t love this super saturated red on her, it started to look a little better when the color began to fade.

Pelusi’s thoughts: He’d like Lively’s hair a little more if the color was toned down and began to fade into blonde. One way she could achieve this look is with Pelusi’s “off-the-scalp” technique. Think of the earlier pic of Diaz and her slow, subtle change of hair color — now just imagine that in red.
