Later this year, the stars of “Twilight” will return in the highly anticipated sequel “New Moon.” But first, they’ll be undergoing an extreme makeover.
“I think we are just perfecting it,” Nikki Reed explained when she stopped by the MTV studio recently, revealing the conversations she’s had with new franchise director Chris Weitz. “I think it will be a little bit different, and we’ll perfect it for the best.”

It’s no secret that the team on the original “Twilight” struggled mightily — and occasionally found their efforts enraging fans — as they attempted to perfect the hairstyles of the Cullen clan. Now, with a new director and bigger budget, Reed revealed that Weitz is determined to get things right.

“[My conversation with him:] was revolving around the look of the Cullens; I don’t know if we necessarily got it right the first time around,” Reed explained. “We weren’t expecting all the weather issues and all the makeup we had to put on. Every single character [had a hard time:]. I know a lot of people think it was just me that changed how I looked physically, but Peter Facinelli has black hair, and he has to go back blond [for ‘New Moon’:]. And Kellan Lutz, who is a natural blond, has to go back to dark hair.”

Now, as the cast heads into “New Moon” and “Eclipse” back-to-back (and “Breaking Dawn” likely to film after those), Reed said they’re hoping to streamline the process.

“We all had hours of hair and makeup in the morning, and then when we showed up on set, it was raining,” she remembered of her experiences filming the first “Twilight” flick, which hits DVD March 21. “And because we are vampires, we can’t shoot in the sun! So, we were always shooting when it was cloudy, and then there was hail, and the makeup was pouring off. It was an experimental process — now, I think, we are more prepared.”

But what will this mean for the fans? Reed said the die-hards might notice some of the changes — like her plan to wear a wig this time rather than dye her hair again. “My hair fell out,” she winced. “It took 36 hours initially to make me blond, and every other day, I was bleaching my head and my skin. This time around, we are testing out different wigs and stuff.”

Before the Twilighters start judging the change, however, Reed wanted to point out one thing: The franchise stars went above-and-beyond to make their original hairdos work. “I really wanted the fans to understand that I was dedicated, and I was going to do whatever I needed to do, even at the expense of going bald,” said the 20-year-old, who hopes to squeeze in the film “K-11″ with Kristen Stewart between the “Twilight” sequels. “But it was such a brutal process, plus we have a break in between where I have a couple of other projects. And then I go back to Rosalie. So I don’t think I’m bleaching my hair this time. I know how upset everyone is going to be, but [my devotion to Rosalie:] is why I did it initially.

“The goal is for something better, just better, all around better,” she said of Weitz’s upcoming attempt to give the Cullens an extreme makeover. “I think we are always striving to better ourselves. And the fact that we are all vampires in the first place … of course we are going to look unnatural. [But in the first film:], all of us looked unnatural.”

Stephanie | 4175 comments Mod
I don't think birth certificates in the US say ur hair and eye color. My daughters doesn't. But its ur hair so u can say its whatever color u want.


message 20: by I ♥ Luke Castellan *Alexa*, and Twilight! (new)

I ♥ Luke Castellan *Alexa* (i_love_jacob_black_95) | 3164 comments As long as its logical. Like you have dark hair, then say its blonde.

Stephanie | 4175 comments Mod
Yeah I mean my hair is naturally a dishwater brown blonde color but I always said it was brown. Then I started coloring it so now its whatever color I want it to be. Lol.


message 22: by [deleted user] (new)

I don't want color in my hair. Alot of people at my school whos hair is dark are dying it blonde, and I'm proud to be brunette!!!


message 23: by I ♥ Luke Castellan *Alexa*, and Twilight! (new)

I ♥ Luke Castellan *Alexa* (i_love_jacob_black_95) | 3164 comments I just made my hair more red. I like having dark hair!!


message 24: by [deleted user] (new)

exactly! I don't see whats so special about having blonde hair anyway. I'm not saying blonde is bad, but why would you want to change your natural color to that?


message 25: by Stephanie, Loves Vamps and Werewolves but Zombies scare me!! (new)

Stephanie | 4175 comments Mod
Yeah I just made mine a reall dark red. It looks good cuz I have really blue eyes.


message 26: by Erica (new)

Erica (thppjfan) that sounds like it looks good. If I died my hair I would make it darker so no one could call me blond again!


message 27: by [deleted user] (new)

my eyes are really weird... its dark blue on the outside and hazel in the middle... I kinda considerit green;)


message 28: by Erica (new)

Erica (thppjfan) I have blue eyes. I love my eyes! There my favorite part of me!

message 40: by Jenna (new)

Jenna | 44 comments my hair changes color in sun... i have like, really dark brown hair in the winter, but in the summer it gets a little bit red... kind of how stephenie meyer explain bella's hair. n then i m pale 2, but that's probably just becuz i live in WI n the snow is just melting now! lol


message 41: by Erica (new)

Erica (thppjfan) Im so flipin happy that the snow is melting! OMGS it is 61 degrees out!!! YAY!!! The only thing that really changes about me in the summer is that I get freckles. I have a hit of red hair bc my dad has red hair, and i look EXACTLY like my mom! Seriusly. At my school musical my mom sat next to this lady she never met, and they talked a little before the show and when I was on stage the lady pointed to me and said "Thats your daughter, the one with the glasses, right?" and im just like OMGS!

I dont argue about my hair. Lol, it is often debated on. My ends always look different from my roots, due to natural highlights, I try not to argue anymore. The general consensus is that I am a brunnete, however, there are some people (I dont know why) that presume my hair to be dirty blonde. Like my mother, she knows me best, but she see's blonde. Mainly because she wants me blonde, but thats besides the point, I gave up on that a long time ago. Some people have blonde colored "glasses", so who am I to argue? :)
