Nicole Richie Promotes ‘House Of Harlow 1960’ As A Brunette
The dark side

Nicole Richie showed off her new darker locks at an in-store appearance at Bloomingdale’s here in SoCal over the weekend at a promo event for her jewelry line House of Harlow 1960. Nicole confessed that she dyed her hair brunette about a week ago and did so because she was “tired of being a blonde”. I guess blondes don’t have more fun after all:


Do brunettes have more fun? On Saturday, Nicole Richie debuted a darker do at the launch of the House of Harlow 1960 Holiday Collection at Bloomingdale’s in Costa Mesa, Calif. “I did it about a week-and-a-half ago,” the mother-of-two, 28, told Usmagazine.com when asked about her new look. “I change my hair color all the time, and I hadn’t done it in a few years. With the babies, I just really hadn’t had time. I’m so used to having that change all the time, and I hadn’t done it in about two years, so I was just ready and sick of being blonde! I was ready for a change!” Richie said she is gearing up for the holidays with beau Joel Madden and their two kids, Harlow (who turns 2 next month) and 3-month-old Sparrow. Any family traditions? “I don’t have a lot of traditions,” she said. “I have gotten a new Christmas ornament every year so I will probably do that. I’m a big eggnog drinker. Not the kind with alcohol in it, but the regular kind. I thought that everyone drinks eggnog, but as I’m getting older, I’m learning that people actually think it’s really gross, but I love it, so I will definitely have some eggnog!” Her kids “are great,” she said, adding that Harlow “loves being a big sister.”

I love it!! Nicole looks amazing. In the photos she posted on her official blog last week, it looked to me like she cut her hair but I’m happy to see that she kept it long. As much as I love Nicole‘s bob hair’do, I love her much more with longer locks. I think the brunette really suits her … it makes her look more mature. What do y’all think … is this darker hair color a good look for her?

  13. CHASE says:

    The brunette ages her quite a bit but it’s better than the dish water blond look.

  14. p says:

    @Sweet!- Hahaha i thought the same thing!
    Omg she is one gorgeous beautiful woman. I dont think anyone else could transform themselves the way she has. I LOVE her!

  15. Susie says:

    She looks great either way, but I also prefer the honey-gold blond look on her – I think it compliments her skin-tone the best of all the hair colours she’s been. But the brunette is still a nice change and she pulls it off well. Love her!
