He has a sort of come-on look in this.

Oops, sorry! Don't know how this could happen....

We'll make an exception just for you, Ricklocked. My husband's just watching Perfume, Alan Rickman kissing his daughter good night. Just saying.

Well, with PE it's no wonder as CT is always described as being blonde and pale. Please take a look at the face and forget about the hair colour for once. Maybe you should work as a hair consultant, AG.

I get that the character was blond and pale. Too bad they couldn't make it look real. Maybe on-screen it looks better than it does in these stills. Pale natural blonds don't have that brassy color or the lack of natural luster that bleaching leaves behind so often. I dunno. Just a pet peeve of mine. I'll shut up now.

Nice. Perfect hair, lolololol. See? I'm always sure to say when I like it, not just when I don't like it.

But, Aggie, wouldn't it look even better a little darker? And maybe with a little curl spilling onto his forhead?

Oh, my fave is always him as Sherlock. As long as they don't make the hair absolutely black. My fave Sherlock hair I believe was in Scandal. Especially in the scene where he tells John to punch him in the face, and John says, "I always hear punch me in the face when you speak, but it's usually subtext," his hair looks fantastic there. You know, more fantastic than usual, and that's saying something.

Anyone notice how we're galloping up on 100 pages in this thread? heh

Yes, dying hair blonde is difficult. I'm speaking from experience. There is only one way to get the colour out of your hair and that's hydrogen peroxide. Brutal but efficient. I suppose Benedict didn't want to torture his sensitive follicles.

I don't suppose he had much say in it.

I was just joking. Benedict once said:

“Pull the hair on my head the wrong way, and I would be on my knees begging for mercy. I have very sensitive follicles.�

Bless his little heart!

Instead of folliculus ovaricus? I hope so.

Sorry girls, but that's bringing water to my eyes!
