28 Pretty Pink Hair-Color Ideas to Inspire Your Next Dye Job
28 Slides
Bubblegum, watermelon, millennial — there are a plethora of pink hair colors out there to experiment with. Just ask the slew of celebrities like Gigi Hadid, Blac Chyna, Rita Ora, and more who have tried the color on for size. Pink hair can be as bold and subversive or demure and delicate as you want it to be, depending on which shade you choose — and like we said, there’s a lot. Before booking an appointment with your hairstylist to take on a rosier outlook (or before making a quick trip to the store to pick up a box of dye), peek at these styles for the ultimate pink hair inspiration. Once you find your favorite look, be sure to show the picture from the list below to your stylist so they know just the right shade of hair dye to whip up for you. You can thank us later.

Pink Lemonade
Hair-color chameleon Halsey debuted rose-gold strands at the 2018 American Music Awards, making a decidedly different (and refreshing) change from the jet-black hair she was sporting before. This look couldn’t be cooler on the singer-songwriter, and is a super fun option for fall.

Well-Tipped
Allow Dej Loaf to show you how to rock a bowl cut — and actually make it look cool. The rapstress hit the 2018 BET Awards red carpet with a version of the cropped style in what hairstylist Kellon Deryck calls an “icy white” hue, punctuated by pink tips.

Bird of Paradise
Rita Ora only just debuted her new orange hair before deciding to play with even more color for the Fragrance Foundation Awards. Hairstylist Brent Lawler added hand-dyed pieces of hair in pink, red, lavender, and purple to the singer’s messy bun, creating a look that reminds us of a bird of paradise flower.
If you want to try just a touch of pink, let this dye job done by Winnipeg hairstylist Josie Vilayvanh serve as some inspo. The hair is mostly kept a white-blonde hue, while the roots are colored a dusty pink that seamlessly blends out into the rest of the hair.
Move over, rose gold, this coppery goodness, done on hairstylist Mackenzie Myers by Charley Teague, is making the case for mixing pink with another metallic-inspired shade. Think of it as the perfect pink hue for the fall season with its cozy, spicy hues.
Like the classic tri-colored ice cream flavor, Fresh Off the Boat star Constance Wu debuted a new pink-haired look complete with dark roots and blonde tips. First, she had to lighten her naturally dark strands before adding a rosy dye to only the mid-section of her hair.
Hailey Baldwin tinted her blonde hair with pink, adding brighter as well as pastel streaks throughout. If your hair is already lightened like Baldwin’s, you can easily replicate her look at home with Overtone’s Extreme Pink Deep Treatment, which gently deposits color onto hair in minutes.
It’s no surprise that Blac Chyna has a wig in this decade’s most sought-after shade of pink. But if you’re not a wig person and prefer a more permanent option, prepare to bleach your hair white-blonde before dyeing it this soft blush hue.

Magenta
Bella Thorne is proof that you don’t have to stop wearing pink makeup after dyeing your hair. Her electric magenta hue is an edgier take on the trend, and Thorne takes it even further with a perfectly matching lipstick. It’s a pairing that works brilliantly against her skin tone.
Cyndi Lauper told Allure in a recent interview that she was planning to dye her hair blue before realizing that her current hair color was the same as the marketing for the Women’s March. “I should never change the color of my hair — [at least] not now, just to keep solidarity,” the singer said. “Part of what I saw was women marching with signs that said: ‘Girls Just Want to Have Fun-Damental Rights.’ I was so moved by it, I thought, no, my hair is going to pink — so now it’s pink.”
Every member of K-pop group BTS has dyed their hair pink at least once, but Jimin, in particular, is a repeat offender. Last year, he colored his hair a vibrant watermelon shade that left fans inspired.
Need an idea for your next high ponytail? Take cues from Gigi Hadid, who showed off her colorful style on Instagram. It looks like she dipped her ponytail extensions in fuchsia and violet dyes, and we’re so here for it.
Leader of K-pop group NCT 127, Taeyong, showed us all how to master the rose-gold hair trend when the “Cherry Bomb” music video dropped. (We dare you to watch the whole thing and not want to dye your hair a matching shade immediately after.) The rapper even colored his brows in the trendy hue.
Iggy Azalea decided to try something new, straying from her signature blonde for a shocking shade of pink. Take a look and you’ll see that it’s brightest towards her roots and fades into a white-blonde at the tips for a bright and bold ombré.
You don’t have to bleach your whole head to achieve a pink look. Model Joan Smalls only dyed the bottom half of her hair and it looked stunning. If you have shorter hair, you can achieve a similar effect by adding in pink extensions.
You can ease into the pink hair fantasy with a hint of it like Kesha. Those with naturally light blonde hair can color their strands at home with a similar, barely-there shade using L’Oreal Paris Féria Smokey Pastels in Smokey Pink.

Fierce Fuchsia
Yes, pink looks amazing on buzzcuts, too. Case in point: Television personality Kandyce Hogan showing us how you can add a shock of neon pink to a close crop. Here, her sides are shaved down and the pink adds a stark line of demarcation between the bright hue and her natural shade.

Rainbow Sherbert
We can’t be the only ones that think that Fernanda Ly’s blush-to-creamsicle hair looks like melted rainbow sherbert, right? The model combined two pastel shades to create one deliciously gorgeous hue that looks good enough to eat. Anyone else in the mood for dessert?

Bubblegum Pink
Model Liz Harlan’s bubblegum hair is unapologetically pink. The vivid shade will eventually fade to a softer hue, but it’s sure to wow while it lasts. At home, you can recreate Harlan’s hue with Lime Crime’s Unicorn Hair in Bubblegum Rose.

Faded Rose
Here’s one way to go pink and make it look completely breezy and effortless. Avoid adding pink to your roots and ends like British singer Mary Charteris does here. The washed-out rose dye creates an almost tie-dye effect we’re obsessed with.
Rainbow-haired model Irene Kim worked her dark roots to her advantage to create a gorgeous gradient of black-and-pink. The best thing about this particular dye job is you won’t have to worry about touching up your roots on the regular.
For her pink hair transformation, Suki Waterhouse visited the U.K.’s popular salon Bleach London. Colorists there gave her a hue that was neither too bright nor too pastel. Instead, we’ve got a lovely mix of dark and lighter pinks that give a soft boldness to the look.

Two-Toned
Cruella de Vil, eat your heart out. Nicki Minaj clearly couldn’t choose between platinum and pink, so she went with both, rocking platinum on one side of her middle-parted hair and a petal pink shade on the other. We stan a multitasking queen.

Lavender Pink
Throughout her career, Pink has dyed her hair nearly every shade of, well, pink. Most recently, she’s styled her hair shorter on the sides of her head (which she didn’t dye), leaving it longer on top with a cool, violet-tinged pink hue.

Icy Pink
Teyana Taylor is a bonafide hair chameleon, rocking it short, long, and even in a shade of blorange — yes, that’s a thing. Here, she rocks a pale shade of pink layered over an icy blonde tone that seems to almost shimmer under the lights.

Strawberries and Champagne
Jaden Smith is low-key a hair icon, which he demonstrates here with this cool two-toned crop. You can still see flecks of blonde peeking through his rosé-hued hair, while the sides are serving full-on champagne. Drink it all up, folks.

Rose Hawk
Mel B has experimented with a lot of colors (even glitter), but her rosy Mowhawk is one of the daring hues she’s played around with that we particularly love. Varying shades of soft pink remind us a bit of cotton candy, but the Mohawk style is what gives this look ultimate edginess.
