3 Dreamy Ways to Wear Pink Hair

With celebrities like Lucy Hale, Vanessa Hudgens and Emma Roberts who have rocked a pink hue, it’s obivious that the millennial hair color du jour is going nowhere. The best thing about the trend is that you don’t have to have a certain style to pull it off; pink can be worn as an ultra-striking fuchsia shade or pared down to a softer pastel tone.

HIDDEN PINK HUES

If you’re going for an all-over shade of magenta or candyfloss, pink hair becomes a big statement. Consider instead trying the hidden hair color trend, which sees a lightener (if you’re brunette) and your pink tone painted through the lower layers, so the color simply peeks through as you move. A semi-permanent product, like Color Fresh CREATE in High Magenta, makes this look even more foolproof, as it can be custom-blended to your perfect shade. Think, any tone from vivid fuchsia to pale macaron pink.

ROSE QUARTZ CROP

A cotton candy hue looks fresh when paired with a bob or an edgy pixie crop – and even more so when your short ‘do features texture-building dark roots with lighter tips. Get the look by asking your hairdresser to mix up a blush tone using Koleston Perfect or, if your hair is slightly porous, a demi-permanent shade of Color Touch. Whichever formula you go with, be sure to team it with a bond-strengthening treatment.

ROSE GOLD GLOW

For hair that makes all skin tones glow, blend pinks with metallic copper shades or subtle hints of gold. This creates a soft, dreamy, rose gold finish that’s super-Instagrammable. Rosy manes like this work best with an extra dose of shine, so be sure to lock the vibrancy down for longer with INVIGO Color Brilliance Shampoo and Conditioner.
