Helen Flanagan has celebrated her 22nd birthday in style by ditching her old hairdo in favour of blonde locks.
The ex-Corrie star uploaded a series of images showing off the new do.
She was famously ordered by Coronation Street bosses to dye her hair back to brown the last time she went blonde in April 2011.
But just days after going lighter she started to fret about the future of her barnet:
"Really want to go for a swim but I've heard it ruins your hair when your blonde? Tips anyone? Xxx" she tweeted to her followers.
We can only assume a flurry of advice ensued, for she later tweeted: "So I shall invest in products... Keep my head above the pool... But no I'd rather be seen dead then in a swim cap hahahahaahgaa xx"
The star currently lives with her footballer boyfriend, Scott Sinclair, who plays for Team GB and Swansea City.
