Jessica Simpson explains ‘new and youthful' look

Jessica Simpson just carried a “new and youthful" look for her hair.

The Blonde Ambition star showed off her "desert sunset blonde" look which was comprised of a dirty blonde colour with sunkissed highlights, on American Idol.

Her colourist, Rita Hazan explained that Jessica was eager to "switch it up" and was completely satisfied with the results.

In a conversation with PEOPLE magazine, Rita said, "The must-have in my kit that I use on all my clients is Glaze’s Supergloss. For Jessica, we used the shade Vanilla Lights — her perfect match to tone down brassiness in her highlights.”

She continued, "It delivers a rich, shiny payoff, and a silky, polished finish that leaves hair looking refreshed and healthier after just one use.”

"She was so happy to get a new look and switch it up. She always had a super buttery blonde — this time we wanted something new and youthful,” Rita added.

"I think it's a fresh and young vibe, but with confidence and a slight attitude to represent her mood. We have been in each other's lives for so many years that there’s personal and professional trust,” she further said of the look she gave her client.

Rita has worked with Jessica Simpson for quite a long time as they kick off their sessions with "hair party" where they share some laughs while exchanging gossip.
