Amanda Bynes debuts a striking new black and blonde hairstyle while out for coffee in LA

Amanda Bynes showed off a new two-tone hair color on Thursday.

The Amanda Show star, 38, was blonde on top and had black locks underneath. There also seemed to be some blue tones.

The star also wore heavy makeup with a septum piercing and a nose ring as she was spotted in Los Angeles.

Amanda wore a black sweatshirt and leggings with a black leather jacket while carrying a small black handbag.

The former teen star left a coffee shop with two drinks in hand: an iced coffee and a hot cup of coffee.

For her coffee run, she slipped her feet into a pair of flat silver loafers.

Earlier this year, Amanda opened up about her struggle with depression and how it has affected her weight.

‘I have gained over twenty kilos. having been depressed in recent months,” the Hairspray star wrote on her Instagram Stories in March.

“I’m doing a lot better now and I’ve learned to do the opposite when I don’t feel like exercising or eating clean.”

“I weigh 162 pounds. right now and want to get back to 110 pounds,” she added.

Today, she approaches her mental health in a healthier way than when she was younger, abusing cocaine and Adderall to keep her weight down.

She said she went into a spiral after seeing herself play a boy in the 2006 film She’s the Man.

“When the movie came out and I saw it, I went into a deep depression for four to six months because I didn’t look nice as a boy,” she told Paper magazine.

The short hair and sideburns she sported for the role were “a super strange and out-of-body experience.” It really messed me up.”

That’s when she started experimenting with medications as a means of losing weight. This eventually led to an Adderall addiction.

“I definitely abused Adderall,” she said at the time, after reading “an article in a magazine that (called Adderall) was ‘the new skinny pill’ and they were talking about how women were taking it to stay thin.” I thought, “Well, I’ve got to get my hands on that.”

That whole experience was a big part of why she decided to quit acting in 2012.
