New L’Oréal ambassador Stacey Solomon has explained just why she wanted to return to her ‘natural’ roots ahead of her wedding next week – sharing the process of going from bright red to blonde at home with her Instagram fans on Friday
Stacey Solomon has unveiled a brand new hairstyle ahead of her wedding day at the end of the month.
The Loose Women presenter, 32, is known for sporting bright hair colours and frequently changing her style, but has plumped to return to her blonde roots in time for marrying husband-to-be Joe Swash.
Stacey and the former EastEnders actor are due to tie the knot in the grounds of their Essex mansion next week, following Joe popping the question to one-time X Factor finalist in December 2020.
Showing off her transformation on Friday, the mum-of-four said she “just wanted to be back to me” when explaining why she wanted to be a blonde bride, and confessed she “didn’t want anything crazy for the wedding”.

She explained to her 5.4million followers on Instagram how the process of going from bright red to blonde had taken four days in total but was “sooo WORTH IT” – a nod to her new role as a L’Oréal ambassador and their famous tagline: “Because you’re worth it.”
“Wedding Hair Done,” Stacey began captioning a series of snaps of herself as a blonde once again.
“It feels so so lovely to be blonde again. For some reason I just wanted to be back to me and my (not so natural but natural for our special day.

She went on to add: “I love it so much. It was a process but it was sooo WORTH IT. Happy Friyay everyone. Not long to go.”
Over on her Instagram Stories, Stacey went into a little more detail about how she made the drastic change, and spoke of her pride at being a part of the L’Oréal team.
“They’ve watched me dye my hair over the last year always using their colour kits and I never in a million years thought they’d ask me to be a L’Oréal ambassador,” the bride-to-be explained to her Instagram followers.

“I honestly love it so so much,” Stacey gushes after sharing some before-and-after pictures on her Stories. “It’s so soft and pretty.”
“And I just feel like me [laughing-face emoji]. Even though I’m always me [laughing-face emoji] but you know what I mean.”

Prior to revealing her bridal hair on Friday, the TV star also unveiled something else new – her engagement ring.
Stacey showed off her new sparkler to her Instagram followers and explained her reasons for switching things up on her left hand.
Showing off a pre-wedding manicure, the Sort Your Life Out presenter explained how husband-to-be Joe had her “ring changed because I wear more gold than silver.”
Writing on her Instagram Stories, the star continued to explain: “It’s all the same stones but we moved them around abit [sic] so it was more dainty on my fingers.”
Stacey and Joe first met back in Australia thanks to reality TV show I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!
Joe, who was crowned King of the Jungle in 2008, was hosting a spin-off show for the hit reality TV show when his future fiancée was a guest the following year. The pair hit it off and became good pals, before things eventually became romantic.
The happy couple share five children between them; including only daughter Rose who the pair welcomed into the world together on Stacey’s 32nd birthday last year.
