Loathe or Love: Highlighter Hair

Published Oct 25, 2011

2011 might be the year of the braid, but it’s also an experimental time for Hollywood hair color trends. With so many wig and natural color-processing options available, it’s no wonder your favorite pop stars are dip-dyeing and color-blocking their hair weekly! And it’s not just the usual color suspects—we’re seeing funky neon highlighter hues of lime, pink, blue, red, purple, and orange appear on and off the red carpet. We never know which rainbow color Lady Gaga or Nicki Minaj will step out of the limo with, and Katy Perry’s blossom ’do always makes us smile. However, the award for the most sophisticated color trendsetter goes to Kelly Osbourne. Her nearly lavender gray locks look stunning against her bleached-out strands and porcelain complexion. So whether you go for a wig or a few hidden highlights, would you wear this candy-hued style?  Tell us below if you loathe or love the look!

my friend got "tumblr girl hair" - it's all a light, bright peach. i actually really like it, but you have to be really ballsy to pull it off.

I used to dye my hair all manners of colours (red, pink, green, blue) when I was a teen and in my twenties. Now that I'm in my forties (eep) I stick to warmer natural colours.

Katy <3

I love it on them, but not on me !!! Dont get me wrong, I love to change my hair and take chances with things !! But the most daring I would go with my hair ( which can change the whole tone of your face!) would be LC's peach ombre tips

Love Nicki Minaj's hair and LC's hair is cute it just looks like it was dyed with a kool-aid packet.

Lavender/silver locks is definitely something I wish I could pull off.

I try to keep my hair healthy... something tells me dying it a ton of different colors would break it off! 'll have to pass, unless it's a wig!

I've been comtemplating whether or not I should hop aboard the dip-dye train, but after seeing LC from the Hills do it, I want to try the trend. Why not? We only live once, right?

of all the examples in the gallery, i think LC pulls it off the best. it's subtle but you can still see the peachy ends

im doing this wif my hair soon. :) excited.
