Selena Gomez totally WOW’d errbody when she rocked the American Music Awards red carpet with a brand new blonde ‘do and we’ve been srsly frothing ever since.
As anyone with dark locks like Sel would know, it ain’t easy to transition from brunette to blonde!
So do you wanna know all the deets behind Sel’s hair transformation?
Take note from celebrity hair stylists Nikki Lee and Riawa Capri of Nine Zero One salon.
“Being that this was the first major color change Selena’s ever done, it was important to us that her hair remained healthy and the tone was right for her skin,” celebrity hair colorist and Nine Zero One co-owner Nikki Lee told Us Weekly.
“The vibe is 90’s chic and she named the color #NirvanaBlonde.”
Capri also warns that pulling a major transformation like this takes patience!
“It took 9 hours, about 300 foils, and 8 bowls of bleach, all with 2 stylist working together simultaneously, (@nikkilee901 and myself),” Capri revealed on Insta.
“It was a nice long patient process of baby fine slices, then going back and opening each foil and reapplying, but done in one sitting. Anything is possible in one day, it just takes time, no other clients ha, and patience to maintain the integrity of the hair.”
Lee adds: “Now that Selena is blonde it’s so important to keep her hair moisturised, strong and healthy.”
“For an added dose of moisture she swaps out her regular conditioner for Pantene’s Radiant Color Shine 3 Minute Miracle Daily Conditioner. This keeps her rooted creamy blonde healthy and Selena can rock this new fresh look just in time for the New Year!”
