One Direction star Niall Horan has revealed that he is considering ditching his famous blonde locks.

The Irishman is fairly well known for his bright hair, but he told Channel 955 that it could be about to go.

He revealed that his natural colour is "nearly black" and hinted that he is getting a little tired of going blonde all the time. He said:

"My natural hair colour is nearly black."

He continued: "So I'm thinking about heading towards that kind of thing, because I've been doing this for a while."

Horan meanwhile recently took to Twitter to comment on the internet trolls which seem to plague the social networking website, stating that he doesn't really care what people say about him online.
