Brittany Snow has undergone a stunning hair transformation through the years, and one thing is clear: she's not afraid of a little hair dye. She's been a redhead and a brunette and stunned in just about every shade of blonde. "I have had every hair color!" Snow told Yahoo in 2015. "I joke with my hair colorist. She keeps sheets of paper on every hair color that I've had, so she has records of it all. She's done my hair since I was 15, and I guess I have a thick folder going because I've had so many different hair colors."
According to Business Insider, Snow's natural hair tone is a soft color between brunette and blonde, sometimes called "bronde." However, a glance at throwback photos shared by the star on her Instagram reveal it's closer to a classic light blond. The actor also shared a photo of herself as a child during Halloween that revealed she had short, golden tresses (via Facebook).
Still, the "Pitch Perfect" star has colored her hair so many times that it has practically triggered an identity crisis. "I really liked it black, but only for a little while," she told Refinery29 in 2016. "Then I was like, 'What am I doing? Who am I?' I would like to dye my hair really dark again...but I think my favorite is a strawberry-blond, honey color." However, with "desert sand blonde" shaping up to be a most coveted hair trend, perhaps Snow will embrace her natural color again soon.
Keeping colored hair healthy like Brittany Snow
For anyone who colors their hair as frequently as Brittany Snow, it can be tricky to keep strands looking healthy. Snow admits that changing the shade of her hair is her "favorite thing to do," which means she can't afford to skimp on moisturizing and repairing treatments. "I use Kérastase masks, which really work for me," she told Refinery29. "I have gone through so many different hair colors that it's always really important that my colorist does a mask and a treatment. I try to keep it healthy because I get really bored really easily."
You can mitigate added stress on your hair by limiting the use of heat styling and handling your locks gently. That said, split ends and frizz can be among the telltale signs you're dealing with hair damage. Once that happens, a good trim is your best option. "The only way to rectify severe thermal or chemical damage is to frequently trim off dead ends and allow for healthier hair to grow down without being affected by lingering damage," says trichologist Shab Caspra in a 2025 interview with Vogue.
