9 Famous Red-Haired Celebrities Who Aren't Natural Redheads

Lucille Ball is perhaps the most famous redhead there is, though her hair didn't always have that firey hue. Her hair apparently got its color from a henna dye, which was a closely guarded Hollywood secret — so closely guarded, in fact, that according to Huffington Post, the dye was kept under lock and key.
2/9Emma Stone
It may seem like Emma Stone and red hair go hand-in-hand, but she's actually a natural blonde. She was quoted in Vogue U.K. saying red hair is her favorite, however. She said that her coloring is similar to a redhead, which makes the hair color perfect for her. She said, "I really like having red hair. I'm a natural blonde, but I really like the red."
3/9Deborah Ann Woll
Though Deborah Ann Woll kept her hair a strawberry blonde color while shooting True Blood, her real hair color is actually blonde, sans the strawberry. She told Elle that she has been dyeing her hair on and off since the age of 14 as a way to get her strands to show up against her pale skin. However, for the most part, she's stayed true to her natural blonde hair since shooting for the show wrapped.

Bella Thorne is somewhat of a hair chameleon these days, but she does seem to come back to red hair fairly frequently, and it's the color she made her acting debut with. However, it's not her natural color — blonde is, as she told Allure back in 2014. However, she's not a fan of the blonde, and when directors asked her to go back to her natural color for a role, it once made her cry.

It's hard to remember a time when Amy Adams didn't have red hair, but we went back in the archives and found a photo of her with her natural color to prove that she's been getting a dye job for years and years. She started dyeing her hair when she was 27 and says it has "dramatically influenced her acting career" — in a good way, obviously.

Sex and the City starred two blondes, a brunette, and a redhead — and that redhead was important. Being "a Miranda" was synonymous with having red hair, but did you know that red hair wasn't Cynthia Nixon's natural color? She fooled us all during her SATC tenure, but when the show and the films were over, she told Marie Claire she was excited to get back to her blonde roots — so much so that she dyed her hair back to blonde to get the red out.

We know Christina Hendricks best as a redhead, but her natural hair color is actually blonde. In fact, she told Marie Claire that she's actually experimented with plenty of hair colors, including black, brunette, and purple. She said, "I just love experimenting." Now that her days on Mad Men are done maybe we'll see her try out the blue hair trend.

Sophie Turner may be one of the fiercest redheads out there in her role as Sansa Stark on Game of Thrones, but the color doesn't come by her naturally. In fact, while filming the show, she told Popsugar that she has to dye her hair red every week to cover up any of her naturally blonde strands that might peek through.
