Gwen Stefani dyes her hair every week to keep it blond
To keep Gwen Stefani’s brunette roots at bay, hairstylist Danilo “Danilo” Dixon told Refinery29 he colors her hair once a week to avoid root re-growth. “I developed a high lift formula for her. I learned that I could get to a place of achieving the blond that I want, and the quality of hair that we need and want, by using a new product, as opposed to just bleach,'” he said. Danilo also shared some of the products he uses to keep Stefani’s hair healthy with E! News, including Pantene Repair and Protect 3 Minute Miracle Deep Conditioner and Pantene Conditioning Detangler Spray. “She gets multiple types of deep conditioning every day,” he shared, though it’s important not to use too much conditioner on your hair to avoid it looking greasy and limp.
Though we haven’t seen much of Stefani’s natural color since her childhood, she has rocked it as a grown up (or a shade close to it, at least). Danilo revealed the bouncy, brunette ‘do Stefani wore in her “Cool” music video was very close to the color it grows from her head. “Gwen’s an Italian girl with wavy brown hair … we did her in her natural shade, maybe a little darker,” he said.
We probably shouldn’t expect to see the singer embrace brown tresses permanently, though. Stefani told Harper’s Bazaar she first went light blond aged 25 after an eight-hour salon session and never looked back. “It was like I’d unlocked the key. I remember feeling like, ‘I have arrived. This is me. Finally,'” she said. And she still looks just as gorgeous as a blond as she did back then.
