Kate Winslet Lands Cover of British Vogue Showing Off Edgy New Platinum Cropped Hair

Kate Winslet is one celebrity who gets lovelier with age. True, she's young at 35, but her bone structure seems to look better and better each year.

Check out the UK beauty on the April cover of British Vogue, photographed by the legendary Mario Testino! And look at her edgy, new platinum cropped hairstyle! We love it!! Reminds us a bit of Gwen Stefani's trademark platinum but with a softer makeup palette.

Kate Winslet has now become a high maintenance gal, because the upkeep on those roots will be killer. Still, it's a great, sexy look for the Academy Award winner, and the talented actress told Vogue, she was looking for a brand new start:

"I’m embarking on a new chapter in my adult life," Kate says. "And I’m single. And it doesn’t scare me at all."

So....you, too, want to trade in your mousy do for a hot, bleached bombshell style?!

Well, then we advise beginning with a healthy head of hair and going to a salon pro. Keeping your locks in a pixie cut like Kate's and like Ashlee Simpson's reduces the damage often caused by peroxide and more peroxide.

We found this advice on a British website forum talking about platinum hair. Read on what this un-named pro said:

"I am a cosmetologist in utah. I have been doing hair for seven years and bleached many heads of hair. i am telling you that Loreal Platinuim is by far the best lightener for damaging the least ... notice i said least damage wise. every chemical process that you do to your hair WILL DAMAGE IT! and loreal is the largest hair care company in the US... this is Loreal Professional.. it is a very good line, so dont think of Loreal grocery store shampoo and hair color.i caution anyone who uses any harsh chemicals with out a licensed cosmetologist is ultimately planning a very expensive trip to the salon... color correction is very expensive and very hard to do! also professional products that arent sold or done in a salon are "black market products" and maybe just the professional packaging with crap inside... i have seen it before. "

Good advice. Want to go sexy platinum like Kate Winslet? Then, please don't go it alone.
