It's not to say that changing hair colour is not a risky business. It can actually turn into a disaster. For model Linda Evangelista, this was not a problem as she went from dark brunette to a light shade of champagne. The supermodel was then known afterwards as someone who was not afraid of changing her looks. It was also common knowledge that Evangelista would not work for less than $10,000 a day.

Emilia Clarke of The Game of Thrones was not always platinum blonde. Her natural hair colour is almost black. She had to dye her hair for her role as Danaerys Targaryen.
