Dianne's long red hair was visible in the first video chat with presenters Davina McCall and Matt Baker, but when they returned to see the results, the front sections had been chopped into an uneven shorter bob while the back remained long - and Joe even added a green colour to the roots. It's not surprising that her new look didn't last long…
