    January Jones has opened up about her battle with hair loss and says it’s all down to being a colour chameleon

    January Jones loves to experiment with hair colour - she's pulled off platinum, dark brown, red and golden hues - but it’s come at a cost as she reveals hitting the (dye) bottle so many times has resulted in hair loss.

    JANUARY JONES STUNS IN YSL

    Speaking of her hair ‘mare, January told Grazia Daily: ‘I have been every color and now my hair is falling out in clumps. I’m going to have to shave it off and wear a wig.'

    At Sunday night’s Screen Actors Guild Awards the star worked her hair into a high backcombed quiff, exposing a small patch of her scalp where the hair appeared thinner than on the rest of her head.

    But she won’t let this stop her from being her favourite shade: blonde. But her reasoning is pretty sweet, she explained: ‘My son recognizes me in photos when I’m blonde, He says “mama.”’

    But baby Xander isn’t the only one baffled by his mother’s barnet, her family don’t know who she is if she steps away from her signature shade.

    January added: ‘[When I was brunette] I was suddenly invisible. Not just as a celebrity, but to my friends and family. I was like, “Come on you guys, it’s me!”’

    What are your experiences of changing your hair colour? Can you sympathise with January Jones and her hair falling out? Share your thoughts below.
