Demi Lovato Is Brunette — Again!

So much for that promise!

After telling Kelly Ripa that she wasn’t planning to change her blonde hair, Demi Lovato debuted a new brunette ‘do on Wednesday night’s first X Factor live show. The singer kept her bangs, which she cut this summer, and wore her hair straight and down.

“It’s coming to fall and it’s harder to maintain a healthy skin tone, and when you’re going into winter it just sucks out the color of everyone,” Lovato told reporters after Thursday night’s X Factor. “So I tend to go dark during the holidays; it’s a nice contrast. There’s one thing about being blonde and pale, but I would rather be dark and pale.”

Lovato, a natural brunette, has tried a lot of looks in the past 12 months, from pink hair and blue tips to blonde locks and a bright-red ‘do.

“She’s a chameleon — she can do anything with her hair and makeup,” her makeup artist, Jill Powell, recently told PEOPLE. “She likes to change her look a lot — it’s fantastic. She embraces new trends.”

Lovato’s new look comes as a bit of a surprise — but one we’re definitely loving. Tell us: Do you prefer Lovato as a brunette or a blonde?

You look beautiful. You are gorgeous either way and do not let anyone tell you any differently.

She looks better with brown hair.

It’s a more natural look, but my favorite look shes sported is when she has blonde highlights with a brunette/red-ish undertone. I actually took pictures of her to my hairdresser and said “do this!!!”. I’m not feeling the bangs on her or B. Spears but I am just not a big bang fan in general.

Either way, she’s gorgeous.

I am glad she has fun with hair color but this medium auburn-brown color flatters her skin tone more.

She looks a lot better as a brunette..very pretty :)

I think she looks 200% better with dark hair even if it isn’t her natural color. With some of the things these young women do to their hair, I’m actually surprised that some of them still have hair.

Much more natural looking as a brunette, plus who needs another blonde?! I like her personality. Sure makes up for Britney’s lack of one. Airhead Central. Demi is bubbly and positive, but nothing can make me watch xFactor! Ugh.
