Night of the Living Red: Ann Margaret

Ann-Margaret can best be defined as the "female Elvis" She was a hip-swiveling, heartbreaking, sultry song bird. The perfect blend of Girl next door and Sex Kitten. I'd put her up there with Icons like Audrey, Elizabeth and Marilyn.  Ann-Margret had a chance encounter with Ms. Monroe, who was on location for a film. Monroe noticed the striking girl in a crowd of onlookers, then chatted privately with her, offering her encouragement. She's a triple threat, singing dancing and acting. Ann- Margaret is a natural brunette and her red hair color  was the idea of Sydney Guilaroff, who changed the hair color of other famous actresses such as Lucille Ball.

Bye Bye Birdie

2010: at 69 she won her first Emmy for SVU

Ann proves you can be sexy and beautiful at any age, she's a true icon

Night of the Living Red: Julianne Moore

 Ryan Gosling is perfection!

Anyways..... Lets talk Ryan's co star Julianne Moore. She  is an Iconic Redhead who I think is aging very gracefully & seems like she'd be a very down to earth celebrity. I also loved her when she was on 30 Rock as Alec Baldwin's love interest

Night of the Living Red: Me, sort of...

A few weeks ago Sandra, Ashley Bird and I got together to do some hair fun. I bought a bucket of bleach and we went to town on our strands...

3Things my hair needs ...

1.) Pssssst Spray Shampoo- This does wonders for Bangs in between shampoos, Since starting school I've learned that washing my hair on a daily basis is a huge No-No! So Ive slowly limited my hair washing to every other day and now that I have red hair I apparently need to slash that in half and wash my hair once a week. I need to stock up on so Pssssst!

2.) Pony Tail Holders- My usually ends up in a high ballerina bun most days. Its at transition length and I can't deal. I like these ponys cause they Dont damage your hair and I always wear a bunch on my wrist like a bracelet

3.) Color Refresh- My friends Ashley & Sandra are the colorists behind my hair color, They both recommended using Jazzing to "jazz" up my color. It helps make my Reds last longer and stay brighter. Once a week I apply it directly to my noggin for 15 minutes, I also mix it with my conditioner and use it as a color rinse.

Night of the Living Red: Evan Rachel Wood

Happy Birthday to one of my favorite Redheads

Evan Rachel Wood!

Night of the Living Red: Rupert Grint

Ron Weasley is the Best Friend of Harry Potter. He is the 6th out of 7 Weasley Children. He is a member of Gryffindor House along with Harry and Hermione. Ron is often immature and provides the comic relief through out the books and film adaptation. His family is a Pure Blood Wizarding family and tehy are all characterized as having Red Hair.

Night of the Living Red: True Blood

Sorry for the Hiatus, The past few weeks I've felt drained for some reason, Speaking of Drained...True Blood Season 4 Premiered last night.What did you think? I was disappointed that Queen Sophie wasn't in the episode, I'm dying to know what happened between her and Bill and When did Bill become King? Hes such a Creep, I'm team Eric, I pretty much watch the show just to see Eric.

I think True Blood has more Red Heads than any other show on television. People used to believe that Red Heads were Vampires. All 3 Ladies on True Blood dye they're hair red for the roles. Sophie Ann and Jessica are more strawberry blonde and Arlene is more of an intense Red.

Sophie-Anne Leclerq- the vampire queen of Lousianna is played by Evan Rachel Wood.

Sophie-Anne was born in the late 1000s and was treated very poorly by men in her human life.She possesses a great knowledge of the supernatural and her personality is that of a spoiled child. She's my favorite vampire aside from Eric.

Jessica Hamby- is a young Vampire played by Deborah Ann Woll

Jessica was turned into a vampire by Bill Compton.Since she is new she only possesses common vampire powers. She does not enjoy mainstreaming and dates a human named Hoyt Fortenberry. Deborah Ann's natural hair color is blonde and she dyes it red for the show.

Arlene Fowler-played by Carrie Preston

Arlene is a waitress at Merlotte's and is human. She is also naturally a blonde and sported a wig for the first 2 seasons of True Blood.

I'm so excited to see what Season 4 of True blood will bring...Vampires Werewolves Shifters Witches and Fairies....

Night of the Living Red: Emma Stone



via Mtv.com

Emma Stone won the VMA award for best comedic performance for Easy A last week. I saw Easy A and it wasn't the best movie but I have to say Emma is a pretty funny chick. She was great in Superbad and ZombieLand too. Oddly Enough Emma is not a natural red head but was born blonde, she dyed her hair for her role in Superbad and is most recognized for her auburn locks. She's going to be in the upcoming "The Amazing Spiderman" as Gwen Stacy (a blonde), which I'm very much looking forward to seeing.

Emma has cemented her role as Hollywood's Favorite little redhead, replacing Lindsay Lohan

I feel like had Lindsay Lohan stayed Red and also stayed out of trouble she probably could've landed many of Ms. Stone's roles.  I'm still hoping she can make a comeback, since I loved her in Mean Girls...anyway thats neither here nor there.

Back to Ms. Stone, who 1. is an awesome actress, talented funny and professional 2. she's a pretty kickass redhead, she manages to look great and show off her personal flare for fashion.

Night of the Living Red: Mystique

Mystique is a Female Villain from the Marvel Comic X-men. She has superpowers, most notable is her ability to shapeshift and when she is not posing as someone else she has blue skin yellow eyes and mahogany red hair. In the film versions she is portrayed by Rebecca Romijn and Jennifer Lawrence. I'm very excited to see X-men First Class,  Mystique is one of my favorite comic book characters.

Drew Barrymore via Stylist.com

Drew debuts long waves with a  Fiery Copper Tone which warms up creamy complexion. And She proves yet again that she is a fashion and beauty chameleon. She happens to be one of my favorite actresses and I had the chance to meet her at a Strokes concert years ago she was so sweet and friendly. Stay tuned for a Hair Idol post on Drew.

Mandy Moore via Stylist.com

The Singer/Actress is now a member of the Ginger club too. She showed up at an event in NYC with straight fire colored hair. I'm not really a fan of Mandy especially her acting (yikes! reference- "because I said so" ) but the Red is very flattering on her.

Blake Lively via Stylist.com

 Spotted Serena Van Der Woodsen..., Oh ..Errr... Blake Lively with a New Strawberry Hue. I must say in the Hair Department it appears Blake can do no wrong. The Bright Copper color works well with her skin tone and brings out her teal green eyes. While her signature look, Long wavy locks with plenty of polish & shine,is still ever present in the over all Gorgeous Package.
