In an interview in the August issue of Redbook, the 68-year-old, who is set to star in The Hundred-Foot Journey, said she often trims her own locks.

“Not always, but yes, I can’t handle going to the hairdresser every six weeks, so I only go about once a year,” she said. “In between, I get out the scissors and do something, usually rather disastrously. Sometimes I’ll even chop my hair the morning of a big red carpet event.”

The successful English actress also revealed her tips to looking fabulous at any age.

“Lately I’ve been using a Kate Somerville face wash, but I’m also a great believer in drugstore products,” she said in the interview. “You don’t have to spend a lot of money to get quality stuff nowadays. A brand like L’Oréal has amazing technology.”
