Stacey Solomon joked she looks like Eminem when he was in 8 Mile as she undergoes a dramatic hair transformation for her wedding.
Soaking up the sun in her garden beside a willow tree, the Loose Women panellist, 32, wore a towel on her head in an effort to protect her hair from the sun.
Referencing the rapper's hair before the film, Stacey joked: "I currently look like Eminem when he was in 8 mile,
"But it's working really well. Giving it a break today and protecting it from the sun."
She shared the video after she was asked by a fan how her hair transformation was going.

"It's going alright, I'm currently trying to protect it from the sun which is why I've got this weird towel on it, and I've put a treatment on it as well to give it a bit of love because it went through a lot yesterday.
The mum-of-four who has had cherry red hair for a while now, said she wanted to get her hair back to being a colour that suits her most.
"But I think this towel is actually doing me the world of good, because when it's off I look like Eminem from 8 Mile - it's very bright."

"I'm just trying to get it to my most me colour as possible. I don't know why but as soon as I imagined getting married I wanted to look like the most me I could look.
"I change my hair all the time which I LOVE but for this day in my life I just wanted it to be as soft and natural as possible even though it's defo not natural," she wrote with a laughing emoji.
She explained that she wants to get her hair as close to the colour she had when she was little, adding that she "doesn't know why".

Stacey is marrying her partner Joe Swash on Sunday 31 at their home in Essex.
Stacey opened her new pool to the public yesterday after the country saw record-breaking temperatures of 40C.
Due to the extreme weather, many schools, offices and businesses were forced to close for the day.
