Margot Robbie’s Natural Hair Colour Isn't What You'd Expect

Margot Robbie's Natural Hair Colour May Surprise You

Margot Robbie may look like a real-life Barbie doll with her long blonde hair — her role in the "Barbie" film only drives that comparison home — but you may be surprised to learn her natural hair colour. Though she's been blonde for most of her major motion pictures — "The Wolf of Wall Street," "Suicide Squad," "Amsterdam," and "I, Tonya," for example — the actor's original hair colour is a much darker shade. In fact, Robbie's natural hair colour is brown.

If you look at old red carpet images of Robbie, you can occasionally find her wearing a hue that's closer to her natural colour, but she's spent the majority of her career as a blonde. "I always dyed it dark in high school," she told Elle magazine in a 2014 interview. "I was devastated when I had to go blonde." It didn't take too long for her to get used to it though, and now, she embraces the light colour. "Once I was blonde for a couple of years, I ended up loving it. But I don't have a preference. I like both."

Occasionally you can find her switching behind the two colours. For example, at the 2014 Oscars, Robbie's hair was an ultra-dark, rich-brown colour. She wore a similar shade for her role as Valerie Voze in "Amsterdam," but that was courtesy of some amazing wig. Now, she's in full Barbie mode with her shiny, bright blonde on full display.

Ahead, take a look at Robbie's hair colour transformation over the years.
