[post_ads]Though she made her
name while her hair was bleached a soft platinum blonde, Davis wasn't
always a golden girl — she originally rocked this soft medium brown
shade. And regardless of her hair color, we could recognize that
intense, sultry stare anywhere.
Before Norma Jean Baker reinvented herself as Marilyn Monroe — the most famous platinum bombshell of all time — she had shoulder-length brown curls.
When you think of
Brigitte Bardot, the usual image that comes to mind is a stunning French
woman with a big blonde coif — but she actually wore the brown side

This platinum rockstar literally
fronts a band called Blondie, but in this throwback photo circa 1968,
23-year-old Harry looks almost unrecognizable with long, straight brown
hair.

We're all used to Madonna's changing looks, but this deep brown behind-the-ear cut pixie cut is even more of a departure from her usual glam, over-the-top style.
Bet you never thought you'd see this Baywatch
babe as anything but blonde! At just 16 in this yearbook pic from 1984,
Anderson looks totally different from her '90s self with a short brown
crop.

but Aniston has almost always maintained a blonde 'do — except early in
her career, like in this photo from 1990 when she rocked tousled
brunette waves.

Though she made her
name with white-blonde hair in the late '90s, Aguilera opted to go in
the opposite direction in 2004, donning a chic black dye job with her
deep tan and red lips.
That's right: Even America's sweetheart, Reese Witherspoon, went brunette at one point in 2004 — and it looked great!
