Bye bye brown hair. Thats what Jessica Alba Tweeted on Thursday afternoon before lightening her dark mane and going blonde, marking the first time the actress has changed her hair color since 2009. (In Hollywood years, thats an eternity to stick with one shade.)

Three days later, Alba took to Twitter again and followed up with another set of photos, showing off her new, ombr locks in this picture (left).

Alba is known for constantly switching up her style and taking risks with new trends, but is typically not as experimental with her hair. So this change feels especially drastic (though not quite as drastic as that other star who also recently debuted a new hairstyle).

But Alba didnt go lighter just for the fun of it; shes reprising her role asblonde stripperNancy Callahan in a sequel to 2005s Sin City. (You also may recall a blonde Alba in the 2005 and 2007 Fantastic F! our films, too.)

Its going to take us some time to get used to Albas lightened hair, but the more we look at the photo, the more the hue grows on us. Tell us: What do you think of Albas new blonde hair? Do you think she should return to her roots after filming is finished?
