Hilary Duff Explains Why She Dyed Her Hair Green

Telepictures Productions Inc.(LOS ANGELES) — What in the world would make Hilary Duff dye her blonde tresses green?

“I’ve never done anything like this, and I was just in Cabo [San Lucas, Mexico] with my son and I was staring at the ocean and I was like, ‘I want that on my head,'” she said on Monday during her 12th appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. “So this happened.”

Duff said her 3-year-old son, Luca, with former NHL player Mike Comrie, loves the new look.

“Here’s the thing: Luca is very particular about how he likes my hair. There are absolutely no buns on my head, no ponytails. I’ll have a ponytail and he’s like, ‘Um, hair down, Mom. Hair down, please,'” she explained. “Now he likes to go through his roster of colors that he knows. He’s like, ‘Your hair’s purple,’ and I’m like, ‘No, it’s green.’ He’s like, ‘Nah.’ I’m like, ‘Yeah.’ He’s like, ‘It’s blue.’ ‘No.’ ‘It’s purple.’ ‘No.'”

“He’s very, very funny,” Duff added, smiling.

Duff is set to star in TV Land’s new comedy Younger, which premieres Tuesday at 10 p.m. ET/PT.
