Actress Christina Hendricks started dying her hair at the age of 10 because she thought redheads are "intriguing".

The 39-year-old is naturally a strawberry blonde, but has always believed redheads have more fun, reports contactmusic.com.

She told Redbook magazine: "''When I was 10 years old, redheads always intrigued me. Especially Anne of Green Gables, and my mum said, 'Let's just throw a rinse on that!' Little did she know she opened a can of worms. I still love my hair as red as I can get it!"
