Meghann Fahy has a new look that's definitely fit for a rom-com character. She's currently in the midst of filming You Deserve Each Other, a new romantic comedy (based on a book by the same name) that she's set to star in alongside Penn Badgely, and she underwent a significant beauty transformation to kick off filming. The Bold Type alum recently went from brunette to blonde for her new role, and upon learning about how long the process took, I realized that the only thing I admire more than her acting chops is her patience.
Fahy's colorist, Matt Rez, shared a video documenting the bleaching and lightening process via Instagram on Aug. 6. The appointment lasted a total of 12 hours from start to finish, since, per the caption, it included "full color removal and saturating her hair roots to tips with the bonder, mixing it with her all-over colors and glosses to recreate her natural base color, low lighting, highlighting, #teasylights, #airtouch tip out—you name it…," Rez wrote.
