Experiencing a breakup often leads to impulsive hair changes, a common rite of passage that many regret later on. However, a well-executed hair transformation can symbolize a fresh start. For former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Denise Richards, a visit to Jennifer Aniston’s trusted hairstylist for a color update proved to be just what she needed, resulting in a stunning new look.
Denise Richards Embraces Bronde Hair With Chris McMillan
Following her recent split from husband Aaron Phypers, Richards opted for a hair makeover instead of a typical “revenge dress.” Turning to renowned stylist Chris McMillan, known for his work on Leslie Bibb and Jennifer Aniston, Richards chose a more dimensional color palette than her usual style. The addition of feathery layers added the finishing touch to her post-breakup hair transformation.
“Finally all grown out and healthy long BRONDE hair (thanks to @kccarhart) for the color and consistent trims,” McMillan shared on Instagram. He explained that Richards had previously bleached hair dyed over with brown, requiring time to blend her strands into a soft, nuanced bronde shade. McMillan praised Richards’ natural beauty, stating that her effortless look was enhanced by loose, long layers that added movement to her hair. Using products from his upcoming hair-care line, McMillan’s work on Richards provided her with a refreshed and suitable look for this new chapter in her life.
