Katherine Heigl Hair Change - Blonde to Dark

"Grey's Anatomy" star Katherine Heigl debuted a new brunette hairstyle this week.

The new mom is known for her golden locks, which have run the gamut from a frosty almost-platinum to a deeper honey shade. Heigl did flirt with auburn hair at one point, but ultimately went back to blonde.

Whatever her color, Heigl's hair always had that warm, tell-tale tone of naturally dark hair that's been lightened, so we figured she'd go back to her roots eventually.

Verdict: We like the rich new chocolate look. And whether or not this is her "natural" hair color, it looks very natural on the star. Heigl is lucky that her light, peachy skin can carry many shades.

Which look do you like best? Shoud Heigl have stayed blonde? Leave a comment and let us know!

p.s. Did you notice that Heigl darkened her eyebrows to match her hair?

Eh, every blond I know has done this lately. Any change is fun for a while, but the WOW factor is missing with this color on her. It's staid and boring. If she's a natural blonde, she should stay that way, and judging by her skin tone, she is, although maybe not as light as we are used to seeing. Maybe she did it so imbeciles who believe hair color is an indication of your intellect will think she's smart. Yawn.

Katherine always looks good but I think she looks more
sophisticated and a lot softer as a blonde. Please change
it back. George likes you better blonde.

I think Katherine looks pretty good as a dark brunette but I believe she looks more vibrant as a blonde.

Hi,

I think she colored her hair brown because she is going to be Stephanie Plum in the series first book One for the Money. They are probably getting ready to film it.

She's no doubt getting ready for her role as Stephanie Plum in One For the Money which she just signed on to do. The character Stephanie from the Janet Evanovich series of books has shoulder length brown hair!

I think Heigl looks just great with her dark color. It gives her a whole different look. Good luck with that great color.

Although both colors compliment Heigle, the darker hair gives her face more depth bringing out even more her beauty!..

SHE IS SO PRETTY IN EITHER COLOR ALTHOUGH I PREFER TO SEE HER AS A BLOND BUT KNOWING PERSONALLY HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO MAINTAIN-DARK IS GOOD.

It's so annoying, but she looks fantastic either way - isn't that just sickening? You're supposed to look dowdy if you change your hair color too drastically, but on Heigl, either shade looks great. I think her hair is probably naturally darker, but probably falls into the fantastic shade of blond mine does naturally, which is dark blond - such a boring, ick color - suffice to say, like most women, Heigl will continue to change her hair color over her lifetime, whether it be for a role or not. Either way, she looks amazing!

Love her haircolor.....Dark is in, blonde and highlights are out! Deeper and richer darker color. She should stay dark for sure.

Looks fabulous Katherine!
