Short on cash, but in dire need of a root touch-up? Save your hard-earned money and let your roots show like Mira Sorvino!

The Oscar-winning actress was spotted with deep, dark roots at the "Like Dandelion Dust" premiere at the 35th American Film Festival in Deauville, France.

"Cameron Diaz has been doing the root thing for awhile, so it's sort of a chic thing to show your roots," says Charlie Price, runner-up on Bravo's "Shear Genius" and two-time North American Hair Stylist of the Year. "It's sort of a trend for spring."

However, that doesn't mean it's a good thing. "I think that three or four inches is way too long if you're not a rock star," Price says.

Adding, "Ultimately, the the public wants someone who has access to everything to look good -- especially when they're at something glamorous like a movie premiere."

Other stars not afraid to let their roots show? Madonna -- often. Sandra Bullock, Gwyneth Paltrow; the list goes on and on.

Showing your roots may work on the red carpet, but for work, it's a no-no.

Do you think it's OK to let your true color show? Leave a comment below and vote in our poll!

No worse than all the imitation Kate Goslin and Posh Beckham hairdoos with the stringy bleach job hanging all around the face and hacked up the back, nearly bald where the real color shows ( which is usually a better color than the bottled one).

Maybe she is pregnant. You aren't supposed to dye your hair during pregnancy.

The root discussion to me is just gossipy harpy stuff. Most of my family and I have dark hair as it grows in, spend most of the summer in the sun and it bleaches to complete blond. No it's not all even, yes there are permanent roots because it takes time in the sun to go blond. Seeing how her skin has gone pale again I'd say there's a good chance it's natural.

I am a hairstylist, and I would say that if she doesn't get her hair done, that's her decision. However, it is a poor representation of her hair stylist's work. If I were her hairstylist I would want to make sure her hair looked amazing before she stepped out onto that red carpet. because not only will she be "slammed" by the "fashion police", it would be MY work that was being slammed! A hairstylist's job is to make sure their client's hair best represents their lifestyle and flatter them best. Roots DO NOT flatter anyone! and to Mira Sorvino's hairstylist: Shame on you for letting your client look like this!
