Marilyn Monroe has passed away for more than half a century, but she is still mentioned as an immortal Hollywood icon with curly platinum hair and sexy red lips that have become a trademark.
However, few people know that Marilyn has naturally dark hair. In the first dyeing of her hair, instead of achieving the desired platinum blonde color, her hair turned a reddish blonde. After that, in order to get platinum blonde, she had to bleach her hair every 2-3 weeks. At this time, she was forced to use high doses of sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide to achieve the desired hair color.
Marilyn also uses caustic soda (NaOH) whenever she needs to straighten her naturally curly hair. Due to the high frequency of chemical use, her hair is becoming more and more frizzy and prone to breakage. In the last years of her life, Marilyn’s hair still fell in patches and she had to wear a wig.
The icon of Hollywood beauty is also very rarely in a high bun. Most Marilyn hairstyles cover her ears for the reason that the beauty always thinks her ears are large and wants to hide them.
