DIY Dye Got the Better of Diane Kruger

Diane Kruger is synonymous with effortless blonde tresses and killer red carpet ensembles. Hence why one was noticeably slightly two-tone at last Friday's amfAR gala. Her hair was looking just slightly darker than usual - and here's why. Home hair dye.

Speaking of her foray into chemist bought creations, the actress said: "I hadn't colored my hair in six months, and I had been away working for two months. I'm in New York, and it looked a little dull, so I just thought, I'll go to CVS and buy a gloss. Only it turned my hair a dark mud brown..." Needless to say, she wore her hair up at the God's Love We Deliver Golden Hearts Awards at Spring Studios on October 15th.

At least she had a renowned hairstylist on speed dial: "Serge Normant literally saved me this morning. And now it's still slightly red, but it's getting better. I have to keep going back. The woman at the salon who is helping me said it's going to take three visits."

Have you ever had a home dye horror situation? A friend of mine dyed her hair green by accident once before a wedding. Mare.
