6. Tom Felton, who played Draco Malfoy in Harry Potter had to get his hair dyed every 10 days to prevent dark roots and keep his hair white. In a 2008 interview, “The worst thing was dying my hair blonde. It built some superhuman resistance, but it seems to have survived.”
7. While the iconic “Rachel Cut” was everyone’s favorite from Friends, it still made Aniston’s life quite miserable. She believed it was the ugliest haircut that she had ever gotten. It frustrated her when she wouldn’t be on set because she found it impossible to style on her own.
