There's so much of it and the colour and curl - talk about crowning glory! Blush

No objections about the colour, but didn't realise the "dragged back through a hedgerow look" was in now.

Live and learn...

As a fellow redhead who once had a perm...she definately needs to defrizz it and cut a bit off. Neglected red curls are dreadful, well cared for red curls are stunning and I'm sure she could afford a trip to the salon.

far too early 90's/julia roberts in pretty woman for my liking

thefirstMrsDeVere · 15/07/2011 17:33

I ususally love curly red hair.

Hers gets on my bloody nerves.

I said this before on here somewhere but -I think someone told her once that it was her best feature. Thats why she never gets a proper cut or puts it up.

It doesnt look in very good condition either.

She will have that same bloody hair style when she is 70.

Yes she needs the frizz ease. Otherwise gorgeous colour.

dolldaggabuzzbuzz · 15/07/2011 17:36

YANBU.
She's a fabulously stunning looking woman.
Probably thanks to that gorgeous mane of red curls.

alistron1 · 15/07/2011 17:46

I have to defend Rebekah Brooks here as the owner of a strawberry blonde (not Brooks lovely red) mop of long tight curls.

She does not need frizz ease FFS. And her hair is not a hedge.

And if you could tell me, or any other curly person, what the 'proper cut' is for our hair you'd make a bleedin' fortune.

alistron1 · 15/07/2011 17:47

In fact my hair is curlier than Rebekah Brooks...just for context.

ZZZenAgain · 15/07/2011 17:47

she's a very attractive woman and her hair is eye-catching. I don't think she needs to shape/control/defrizz it etc. She could , yes, get a different effect but I don't have the impression she is someone who fusses about much with her appearance

allegrageller · 15/07/2011 17:48

yeah I think Rebekah Brooks is gorgeous, however that does not stop her being an ugly, ugly person....

just tried posting, but disappeared... i think she's got gorgeous hair, i am actually Envy of it.

Oblomov · 15/07/2011 17:51

I thought she was very cold. and calculating. like sausages and marmalade said.

alistron1 · 15/07/2011 17:53

She is a disappointment to the curly haired brethren. But, I will defend the hair of my brethren until I breathe my last breath.

Just don't get me started on that turncoat Nicole Kidman.

catgirl1976 · 15/07/2011 18:06

Maybe it's what she got in exchange for her soul? Can't have been Ross Kemp.

TakeMeDrunkImHome · 15/07/2011 18:09

Grin at looks like Mick Hucknall although to be honest that is quite a hefty insult.

TakeMeDrunkImHome · 15/07/2011 18:11

Is it natural?? Just looked through those pictures on above link and there is a lot of dark root showing in a few of the pictures Hmm

JamieAgain · 15/07/2011 18:15

She has the potential to have beautiful hair, but I agree with MrsDevere - she needs to re-think it on the basis of her age.

alistron1 · 15/07/2011 18:24

When one has v.curly hair one can not rethink it. if I went shorter (I am of an age of Brooks) I'd look like Vera Duckworth.

JamieAgain · 15/07/2011 18:26

alistron - actually - I think it's the colour (assuming it's coloured). I've got v dark hair but I think as you get older your skin tone changes and you have to go a bit lighter so as not to look washed out. But I appreciate it's not straighforward to get a suitable cut. My hair's v thick as well and v few styles work

HairyFrotter · 15/07/2011 18:45

It's not naturally red. I think she wears it so big to try and draw attention away from her haggard face. Rupert seems to like it though - he's all over her like a pervy uncle eww.

BulletWithAName · 15/07/2011 18:54

Mines better Grin

jeckadeck · 15/07/2011 19:50

its seen better days... look at the old photos the Guardian is running, back in the day when she was with Ross Kemp it was in much better nick. Looks a bit wild woman of the woods now.

sausagesandmarmelade · 15/07/2011 20:41

This thread has really made me chuckle!

Perhaps she could do with some of that Moroccan hair oil....ponders!

Jointhedotties · 15/07/2011 20:45

Attractive?

I find her hard faced and extremely unattractive. She looks pinched and older than her years.
