Carrie Underwood and Husband Mike Fisher Walk First Red Carpet Together in Two Years
Carrie Underwood is going back to her roots—literally.
The American Idol judge traded in her signature golden locks for a brownish blonde ‘do on Aug. 4, revealing that this was the first time in 30 years she had rocked the hair color.
“Well, the last time I saw my natural hair color, I was probably about 12 years old,” Carrie wrote on Instagram alongside pictures of her newly tinted tresses, “but I thought it might be time to give it a second chance.”
Thanking Nashville-based colorist Katelin August for “helping me get back to my roots,” the 42-year-old added in her caption, “#NewOldMe.”
Indeed, Carrie has waited quite some time to play with her look. As she put it Refinery 29 in 2012, “I’d love to do a little more with hair color. I’ve always been blonde! The problem is, I don’t want to shock people––like if I dyed my hair brown, I don’t want people to think I’m turning dark and serious.”
