Christina Hendricks is a natural blonde who dyed her hair red for one modelling job and it stuck. Because people do notice red hair in a sea of indistinguishable blondes and because people don’t notice racks in a sea of racks (her rack a decade ago was… less magnificent). Hendricks recalls her former agents pressuring her to return to her original look, calling her red look ‘ugly.’ She explains: ‘When I first started modelling I was blonde. Then I got a job and they wanted to do my hair bright red. I’d always wanted to, but the head of my agency was like, ‘You look terrible, it’s so ugly, you cannot have red hair.’ I came back as a redhead and couldn’t get my hair back to blonde for two days. In the meantime, I had to audition. I booked two or three jobs, because were a lot fewer redheads than blondes, and I was like, this is working for me, I’m keeping this! I think it does make you stand out. People remember you when there’s a sea of faces. It helps.’
