PrintDo blondes have more fun? Apparently, that's what Philippe Gilbert thinks. Dude got his head stuck in a bleach bottle. I'm not sure this is good? That Belgian National jersey is nice, anyway.

Oh dear Phil.
There is something you get wrong…
That jersey looks sexy though.
Chuck Norris isn't fit to wear Jens! cleats.
Famous blondes …Virenque … St David … anyone got pix?
pounding along in three ratios like a sonata
like a Ritter with pommelled scrotum atra cura on the step
Botticelli from the fork down pestling the transmission
tires bleeding voiding zeep the highway
Cool
And for the Worlds he dies his hair… what?

Isn't it illegal
Why isn’t it illegal? It should be illegal.

Hah! I like it. I want a piercing next, and I'm not talking about earrings.
Outlandish but superb sense of style.

Another vote of approval.
I’m surprised at how good it looks on him.
I think all the pre-Tour hair cuts and changes are awfully sweet. Primping for the big day.
Oh Phil
You crazy fool.
(please post a picture of bleached hair with beige suit for maximum hilarity, thank you)
(as you can see, I didn’t spend much time on it – I’m sure a higher resolution original pic would help!)

(The worrying thing is it actually looks better than the orginal)
(where “better” is a relative term, of course!)

Looks to be "platinum" blonde
I like it.

It's a little... white.
I’d prefer some streaky highlights or something.
Also, I still have Billy Idol stuck in my head. Le sigh.
Wowz, this is totally Billy Idol material
Now I’m going to have White Wedding stuck in my head for an entire 3hr ride. Thanks, Gav!

I went right there, too.
Like stepping in something soft.

It actually worked. A bit.
So the argument (although it’s a joke of course) isn’t that far fetched.

Not sure you was supposed to take it serious
I didn’t.

step one in a 3 step hair coloring process
he’s going for the tri-color to match the jersey, so don’t pass judgement until he has the red and black steps done…. gosh!

shouldn't have toned it if he was going to colour over it
Dude, I can see my house from here
Oh wow. Agree with gav. He needs a little toner.

I'm sorry. I'm a little rusty
But doesn’t that tweet say he’ll change his hair color after the tour?

No no

makes much more sense
