That's right, think Jennifer Lopez, Jessica Alba and even Cameron Diaz. These lovely ladies once upon a time had dark strands before they decided to take the leap into lighter hair. Not sure who's natural or just had the help of a total dye job? Wait, until you find out who's real and who's been faking it!

Jennifer Lopez blonde
Jennifer's honey highlights look so great against her olive complexion you'd think they were natural, but the Puerto Rican beauty was actually born with dark brown hair.

But Mariah's natural color is actually a light, golden brown. No wonder she looks so good as a blonde, right?
Cameron Diaz blonde
For years I was convinced Cameron Diaz was born blonde.

But when Cameron decided to go brunette a few years back, she confessed it was more her natural color. "It's not for a role. Just for me. It's just how I see myself," she said during the UK premiere of the Holiday. "Everybody sees themselves in a certain way. Well, I see myself as a brunette. My friends all say it suits me. It looks more like me–more natural."
Jessica Alba blonde
Jessica likes switching up her hair color every here and then. She especially loves honey highlights and blonde sombre hair.

But if you look at pictures of Jessica when she was younger, her hair was a light/medium brownish shade, sort of similar to her daughter Honor's hair color.
Eiza González
Eiza looks amazing as a blonde. You'd thinks she was born that way.

But little Eiza had dark brown hair, more like how she's been wearing it lately for her role in From Dusk Til Dawn: The Series.
Shakira blonde
Shakira been rocking her hair blonde for so long I almost forgot it wasn't always like that.
