If there is someone who isn’t afraid to reinvent herself, that’s Valentina Zenere. The actress surprised her followers again after her makeup artist Bettina Frúmboli shared images of her new beauty look, where the standout feature was her striking hair color change.
Far from the dark chestnut that had accompanied her for years, Zenere completed a transformation that began several months ago: she lightened her mane to reach blonde, and now has taken another step with a vibrant orange shade, keeping the blonde roots visible.
The actress herself celebrated the change on her social media with a caption that quickly drew attention: “Orange is the new black”.
The color that combines blonde roots and orange lengths
More than a simple copper hue, Valentina’s look responds to one of the trends increasingly seen in international hair salons.
It’s called rooted orange or orange melt, a technique that lightens the roots and blends the color toward the mid-lengths and ends into an intense orange. The result adds depth, dimension and a much more modern finish than a uniform coloring.
Besides being original, this approach has an advantage: hair growth looks more natural and maintenance is less demanding than in a completely uniform coloring.
From dark chestnut to orange: Valentina Zenere’s transformation
This change did not happen overnight. Over the past few months, the actress gradually lightened her hair to reach a blonde base, which today allows her to experiment with fantasy colors and vibrant tones without losing brightness.
The chosen orange retains golden and coppery highlights, softening the result and making it much more sophisticated.
Everything suggests this shade will be a major player in the upcoming season for those looking to move away from traditional blonde without yet daring to colors like pink or bright red.
