Stealing Celeb Hair Color

Going blond?

From Our Friends at Total Beauty

Do you have super long or damaged hair? Difficult tresses? If you do, you've probably run into some of the same issues I have when I check out the celeb magazines and paparazzi pictures. It feels like every celebrity has such gorgeous, multi-dimensional color, but they all get it from top-notch salons. What's a girl to do when she's short on cash?

I seriously squealed when I saw this feature on Total Beauty, which covers how to get celebrity hair color at home when you're being budget-minded. Celebrity inspiration and tips, here I come!

I loved the fact that the article itself is in gallery format, which lets us flick through and then click to the corresponding hair dye color. I was already hair dye shopping on the first click, because Jessica Alba's glossy locks looked gorgeous--and the color by L'Oreal covers greys. Since I'm a forlorn gal who started going grey at 22 (thanks mom!), this was pretty important to me. Other celeb inspiration included Heidi Klum, Ashlee Simpson-Wentz, and Rihanna.

Check out the guide at Total Beauty if you're guilty of checking out certain celeb's hair color, but never testing it out for yourself. Now's the time to get dyeing.
