Losing Her Color

Could this be her pop star makeover????

Gossip Girl star and aspiring singer Leighton Meester, usually a brunette, was spotted leaving the Byron & Tracey salon in Beverly Hills this week with decidedly lighter locks.

We kind of like it.

What do U think?

She should definitely stay a brunette! There's a certain charm to her light skin / dark hair combination. She's just going to blend in with that wannabe blond look.

I LUV IT!!! Even though you chose to post the most unflattering pic of her!!!
BTW Perez that one girl that you linked as the real Leighton is nothing more than a FAKE one!!!! But of course you failed once more to check your sources, hopefully her fans will read and realize that they are following an imposter!!!!
*********************************************
Search for pics of Leighton where you can see her natural beauty… must hurt to you Piglet that even though you always post unflattering pics of her she always looks awesome!

NO! I hope it is just for a role. I know her natural color is lighter, but it doesn't look as good with lighter hair. She is stunning with deep brown. This color washes her out.

She's pretty both ways but I loved the dark hair more…. Maybe she was just sick of having it so long for GG and is lightening it for her summer off?

I honestly
Though this
Was Dakota
Fanning and
That losing
Her colour
Meant being
Pale skinned
For New
Moon filming.
It makes
Her look
Tres young.
Plus I'm
Naturally blonde
And love
Brunette locks.
But they
Are impossible
To keep
With blonde
Roots always
Coming through.
You honestly
Dye your
Hair dark
Every month
To maintain
It. So
I guess
Good move
On her
Part. Cheaper
In the
Long run.

I don't like that color on her. Maybe if it were lighter it'd be ok. But she looks good as a brunette.

Beautiful!!! Anyone that knows anything about dyeing hair knows that darker hair ages you. Going too light can look wierd but her hair looks beautiful!!

67

this is actually her natural color. but she looks better with the dark hair… guess this means they have filmed the finale for gossip girl….
Sportyraven says – reply to this

68

this color is much richer than her natural color…it looks better.

If you google search her you can see pics of her with the "blonde" hair which appears more to be a very light brown imo.
bellear86 says – reply to this

SHE IS NATURAL BLONDE
Gangstalysia says – reply to this

78

Brunettes are always better! Especially in her case. However, this might work with Gossip Girl because in the books she gets interviewed by a sorority of all blondes and she gets drunk and decides to dye her hair blonde too, haha.
Anitalovesthisweb says – reply to this

79

i think she looks better as a brunette
Classhole says – reply to this

80

I know she's a natural blonde, but she should really stick with the brunette! I'm a natural blonde who's been dying my hair dark for years; it's a lot more striking on a girl with pale skin!
Amp5390 says – reply to this

81

yeahh her hair was like this in all the tv shows she was in before gossip girl
Amp5390 says – reply to this

82

i like the dark wayyy better though
Lyndil says – reply to this

83

she only dyed her hair dark for her role as blair…she naturally has lighter hair.

84

for a spilt second i thought it was dakota fanning! i love her new hair! she looks amazing either way!
annesofies says – reply to this

85

i don't know if it's the new hair or the fact that she's wearing less make up, but i think she definitely looks better…
pinkixniki says – reply to this

86

correction. she's a natural blonde. (but i think she looks better as a brunette) she only went darker for gossip girl because serena's the only blonde in the story..

she made a cameo on House where she plays a sassy 17 year old who throws herself at the infamous Dr. and she was a blonde. If you actually watched anything other than those MTV "reality shows" you would know. She's much better as a brunette
