Even Reese Witherspoon Is Surprised By Her Natural Hair Colour

The actress shared a throwback photograph on Instagram - by Danielle Fowler
  • 25 Nov 2019

Actors are expected to switch up their appearance in the name of a new role but Reese Witherspoon just proved that keeping up to date with it all isn't just tricky for her fanbase.

The 43-year-old graced the headlines after showcasing brown locks for her starring role in Amazon television series The Morning Show but it turns out, the chestnut shade is actually quite close to her natural hue.

Even Reese Witherspoon Is Surprised By Her Natural Hair Colour

Earlier this week, Witherspoon took to Instagram to share a throwback photograph of herself taken in the early nineties.

In the adorable image, the actress is seen smiling at the camera with her face resting in her hand.

Witherspoon's most referenced beauty phase is without question her stint as Elle Woods in Legally Blonde, as she sported Malibu Barbie waves in the 2001 silver screen hit.

Fast-forward to Big Little Lies and the mother-of-three took on the role of Madeline Mackenzie - another excuse to keep her covetable 'do.

It's true... #LegallyBlonde3

That's why behind-the-scenes snaps of the actress in The Morning Show soon went viral with fans surprised by her transition into chestnut brown territory.

The actress has only adopted the hue twice previously for the big screen in Walk The Line (2005) and The Good Lie (2014).
