Reese Witherspoon Might Be "Legally" Blonde, But That's Not Her Natural Hair Colour

Reese Witherspoon's Natural Hair Colour

While you probably know and love Reese Witherspoon as a blonde (she is Elle Woods, after all), that's not her natural hair colour. The actress and activist recently posted a childhood photo to Instagram, complete with candy necklace, revealing that her natural hair colour is actually brown.

Over the years the 43-year-old actress has tried a multitude of different hair colours, from deep chestnut brown to near-platinum blonde, and even a red hue. Considering how flattering each hair colour looks on Witherspoon, it would be hard to distinguish which is her natural hue had it not been for the childhood photo.

Ahead, you'll find photos of Witherspoon's natural hair colour as well as the other hair colours she's tried over the years.
