Ariel is, without a doubt, one of the most iconic redheads of all time. And when people think of The Little Mermaid, they think about the strawberry-topped mermaid swimming around the sea. 

But not anymore, it seems. It has been confirmed that the upcoming live action remake of The Little Mermaid will feature Ariel with… blonde hair. *Shivers* 

Chloe Grace Moretz, who is set to play the famous mermaid, made the startling revelation in an interview with Entertainment Weekly earlier this week.

"We’re going off the Hans Christian Anderson novel, so I’ll actually have blonde hair." Noooo!

But the Internet is having absolutely none of it:

And it really is a tragedy with redheads everywhere:

At this point, we all know that there are certain beauty trends that require more work than others. 

One of these is opting to go blonde. Your coveted golden shade can be particularly elusive and leave you feeling annoyed when your hair takes on a more brassy appearance. Blonde hair can be very difficult to take care of. 

However, if you get it right, it can be a fabulous shade and you will possibly never go back. Unless of course you are Kylie and can afford a ridiculous amount of hair care experts to be at your beck and call. 

If you cannot in fact keep up with that chameleon Kardashian, then try these tricks to keep your blonde locks healthy and glowing:

Know your water:

Unless you are washing your hair in filtered and bottled water (which would be quite impractical and a bit odd), then it could be your water that's damaging your hair. The hard water in your showers can penetrate porous, colored hair which over time will alter the colour. 

Your shampoo frequency:

The more often you wash your hair, the faster it can appear yellow or brassy, as shampooing tends to strip the color pigments. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know dry shampoo is the key to going longer between washes. If you're completely adverse, you can always rinse your hair with water and then condition as normal.

All of the purple:

Purple shampoo and conditioner is much easier to get a hold of than it was previously. However it still requires some expertise. If you overdo it, instead of lightly toning your hair, you'll end up altering the colour already there. Use either pupple shampoo or conditioner (but not both) only once a week and allow for two or three minutes before you rinse it out.

She's had a load of different hair styles over the years: long and flowing, or short and cropped, Jennifer has sported everything from chocolate brunette hues to sun-kissed light tresses.

But now the 25-year-old Oscar-winner has really gone all out: dyeing her hair a bright and brilliant platinum blonde.

Fans spotted her new look during the filming of sci-fi thriller, Passengers, which she is currently shooting with Chris Pratt in Atlanta.

And while she had also been seen out jogging with her dog last Sunday – hints of light blonde strands peaking out from under her baseball cap – this is the first time that we've been given a decent viewing of Jennifer's oh-so amazing peroxide hair. 

Ms Lawrence is being paid a cool €18m for Passengers – twice what Mr Pratt was able to negotiate.

Due to be released next year, it is being directed by Morten Tyldum – who received an Oscar nominated last year for his work on The Imitation Game.

Nicki Minaj is not afraid to make some interesting style choices and we have definitely seen her sport some pretty interesting wigs from time to time.

However, the star stepped out in LA recently sported a much more laid-back look than we were used to. It looks like Nicki is the latest celeb to take the blonde plunge as her hair has been completely transformed.

Rather than go for a complete peroxide style, it looks like there has been a serious colour job done on Nicki’s locks.

Her hair has a multi-toned type colour going on currently and her darker roots definitely make for a more natural, grown-out style. She’s also rocking a serious fringe right now, which we’re slightly tempted to try.

Of late Nicki had been keeping her hair dark, and even in her GQ cover shoot with boyfriend Meek Mill didn’t wear any of the brightly coloured wigs would we have seen her wear in the past.

While she didn’t surprise with any hair transformations in her interview she did reveal that she first fell for boyfriend Meek when he was in jail last year.

She explained that she reached out to “his people” and asked them to call her for him. When Meek heard the request the two ended up talking for hours.

“I remember sitting on my balcony at my house and just being on the phone with him until it started getting dark outside. And I was just like, ''Yo, I'm in trouble.''' I just knew that first day. It was that long conversation.”

She also added that their relationship is genuine, not a publicity stunt and after ten years in the industry she doesn’t want to keep it a secret:

“When I came in the business, you couldn't tell people you were in a relationship, because record company and management said that doesn't make you appealing to men.”

Felicity Huffman is best known as the blonde Desperate Housewife from Wisteria Lane.

But last night, the 52-year-old actress looked almost unrecognisable as she showed off her chocolate brown locks at the Emmy Awards. 

Felicity first debuted her look at the Emmy Eve party in LA on Saturday night, where she wore a figure-hugging dress to show her toned physique. 

Her husband, William H Macy, was behind her all the way as she posed on the red carpet, her dark hair straightened and wearing delicate make-up. 

Her frock had a see-through mesh with gold pattern details, which she teamed with gold heels. 

At the official Emmy Award ceremony, Felicity opted for her hair in a messy updo, and wore a navy pleated halter gown. 

The star had been nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited Series or Movie, for her appearance in American Crime

Her husband was also nominated for a gong for his role in Shameless US

We love her new look and think her and her hubby look so cute together!

She's sported everything from jet-black to 'bronde' tresses in recent months – even giving bright blue a go for a time.

And while Kylie Jenner recently admitted that, in fact, most of those changes were achieved with the help of wigs – she's back to her natural locks for now.

Still, her 'ashy dirty blonde,' hue has proved divisive – with many of her fans saying that the shade ages her significantly beyond her 18 years.

Not that the reality TV star herself seems to mind: taking to Instagram late last night she said she's realising "that blondes have more fun".

Lounging around in her €2.2m Calabasas abode, which she moved into shortly before her 18th birthday, she also offered a sneak-peak of her AMAZING walk-in wardrobe. 

With Kylie dressed-down for "chill night," in a bright pink Superdry sports bra and black leggings, no fewer than seven rows of designer shoes can be seen in the background.

The snap has already notched up 1million likes from her 35million followers.

However, and although it seems that she very much loves her new hair (which she says has been inspired by elder sister Khloe Kardashian's look), Ms Jenner has nevertheless been uncharacteristically deleting pictures from her Instagram and SnapChat accounts.

One showed her donning oversized aviator sunglasses and carrying a medium-sized brown leather Birkin bag – but it mysteriously vanished from her profile shortly after being posted. 

Last month, HollywoodLife.com reported that Kim Kardashian, who herself went for platinum blonde tresses earlier this year, felt Kylie's lighter look didn't work.

"Kim loves and supports her sister," the website stated, "but she doesn’t know if her blonde hair is working".

A source added that Kim felt "her blonde hair looked much more natural and professionally done.

"She wants to help Kylie get her blonde hair redone, so that she looks her best."

OK we’re going to be honest here: we weren’t overly keen on Kim Kardashian’s blonde hair.

It wasn’t awful – her features mean she can probably pull-off even the most extreme styles – but ultimately, darker locks got our vote every time.

Until, that is, we saw her hot-off-the-presses Vogue Brasil cover: big dark eyes, smouldering to the camera – and totally gorgeous with her mop of platinum blonde tresses.

In fact, we dare say this is one of our favourite Kimmy looks to date.

And evidently Vogue Brasil agreed: the publication released not one but two different Kim Kardashian covers for its June 2015 body issue, which hit shelves yesterday.

Late last night, she also posted a behind-the-scenes video clip from the shoot – which took place in Brazil several weeks ago.

It depicts the reality TV star as a 1960s screen goddess; applying mascara and layers of lipstick.

When she first went blonde in March, Ms Kardashian’s colourist, Lorri Goddard, told Us Weekly that it was just the right time for a colour “adventure”.

Apparently the process took nearly four hours, and Lori also stated that the super-light hue was “glamorous, rebellious, sexy, and chic”.

Have our eyes been deceived or have all of the Kardashian/Jenner ladies gone blonde?!

While Khloé may have opted for a toned down blonde a few weeks ago, her sister Kim has been having a great few weeks experiencing life as a peroxide blonde.

Now, it looks as if her sisters have taken their lead…or have they?

Kourtney shared a photo on her Instagram account showing all of her sisters and even her mum with Kim’s blonde locks.

Unfortunately, things are not as it seems and the images are photoshopped, but we reckon it might inspire some of the ladies to go blonde – especially Kendall! Doesn’t she look fab?

 

Do blondes have more fun?!

The mum-of-three captioned the photo: "Do blondes have more fun?!"

It certainly seems as if Kim thinks so!

Whether you are a vibrant red-head or a bright blonde, all ladies with coloured hair have one goal – to keep the colour from fading for as long as possible.

If you want to keep your colour as deep and as dynamic for as long as you can between treatments, try using these tips!

1. Hit the hairdressers
Getting your colour done in a hairdressers is of course more expensive, but it will be worth it. The colour will last longer than at-home hair dyes.

2. Use a shampoo and conditioner for coloured hair
Yes, we know it may seem obvious, but many people with dyed hair don’t do this! We know shampoos and conditioners especially for coloured hair may be more expensive but you will save yourself money in the long run if your hair is in tip-top condition between treatments.

3. Don’t overwash
Shampooing and conditioning your hair with hot water every day will make your colour fade faster. Skip the water every second day and use a dry shampoo or some talc if your hair feels greasy.

4. Deep condition
For coloured hair, it’s worth investing in a deep conditioning at-home treatment you can use once a week or once every two weeks. It will keep the ends of your hair stay smooth and moisturised, helping to avoid split ends. Olive oil also works very well as a deep conditioning treatment.

5. Turn off the hair-dryer
The heat isn’t good for coloured hair so either turn down the heat or even better, let your hair dry naturally.

6. Stay out of the sun
Unless you’re a blonde and you want your hair to be lightened, it’s best to keep your hair in the shade when in sunny weather. For red-heads and brunettes, keep your hair tied in bandana or under a hat to keep your colour from fading.

The internet basically lost it's mind yesterday when Kim emerged in Paris with bleach blonde hair. 

While we're all aware there's a lot more to life than hair, Twitter had some serious light-hearted fun with Kim's hair yesterday…

Here are our favorurite:

1. While we would never "woof" Kim K, this meme is nothing short of genius.

2. The Mean Girls effect 

3. Who run the world? Kimye

4. These are real questions that we need answered. 

5. Kim just has to stand on everyone. First her sister (who went blonde the day before she did) and now Jared freakin' Leto. Jeez Kim.

There must be something in the air over at the Kardashian household as only days after Khloé showed off her new blonde hair, her sister Kim copied her!

Kim, who is in Paris for fashion week at the moment, was spotted wearing a giant beanie hat yesterday – but some sneaky cameraman managed to capture what was underneath the hat:

Yes, Kim has gone blonde! However, it’s not like the dark, ombre blonde she's had before, this looks well and truly peroxide:

Reactions have been mixed so far… but we kinda love it!

Khloé Kardashian has unveiled her brand new hairstyle on Instagram and she is KILLING it!

Opting away from the ombre style she has been sporting for the last few months, the reality TV star has gone fully blonde.

Khloé shared a photo of her new look with fans on Instagram, writing: “I’m in love with my blonde hair!!! @traceycunningham1 you killed it with this colour!!!”

We have to admit, the deep blonde colour looks absolutely fabulous on Khloé – we wonder how long she’ll keep it for! 

Khloé isn't the first member of her famous family to go blonde; Kim also dyed her hair shortly after the birth of daughter, North while Kylie was also seen experimenting with a blonde wig not so long ago.
