I noted back in October that it looked like Blake Lively gave up highlighting her hair once she found out she was pregnant—something many expecting women opt to do in order to minimize their exposure to chemicals. (Kate Middleton also seems to have quit dyeing her hair during pregnancy, based on the gray roots she flashed yesterday.) And judging by these most recent photos of her, it looks like I was right. Her slicked-on-top Marchesa hairstyle emphasized several inches of grown-out dark roots.
I predict that Blake will be back to her usual bright blond very shortly, once she has time to nest with new baby a little more. In the meantime, I adore her for letting her beauty routine be a little lower-maintenance. She strikes me as the type who'd be much more focused on enjoying this time with her family than perfecting her post-baby appearance for the camera (unlike other celebs who shall remain nameless).
Meanwhile, I'm in my third trimester and totally craving highlights, just because I'm feeling SO blah at this point in winter! But I'm pretty sure I'll hold out till this kiddo arrives.
How many of you would choose/did choose to forgo highlights or hair dye during pregnancy? Let's discuss below!
Meanwhile, if you love Blake as much as I do, you need to watch this vid of her talking puppies and shoes during my all-time favorite photo shoot of her! (For a Glamour cover. Obviously.)
