Ava Elizabeth Phillippe
The daughter of Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe may be young (16!), but she understands the importance of picking a shade that flatters your complexion. Apparently, so does her colorist.

Kylie Jenner
The new queen of the lipstick game opted for green locks for the launch event of her new Lip Kit. Sure, it’s a wig, but we’re still into it.

Rihanna
RiRi never shies away from bold hair color; this year, she sported a rich, just-vibrant-enough-to-be-fake shade of red.

Lily Allen
Allen knows a thing or two about colorful hair (see examples here and here). Her latest shade of intense royal blue appeared on the red carpet for last month’s British Fashion Awards.

Amber Rose
The model traded in her platinum hair for an electric shade of blue this spring — and even matched her nails to her new ‘do.

Julianne Hough
While it was super short-lived, the candy-pink shade that hairstylist Riawna Capri created for Hough will live on as inspiration for blonde bobs everywhere.

Halsey
The singer is a color chameleon, to say the least, but we’re the most into this soft wash of peachy pink. It’s so subtle, you can barely tell — until you look closely.

Grimes
The pop singer is dedicated to the pink-hair lifestyle, but her latest look took it to another level: light pink that transforms into purple and black through the lengths.

Rita Ora
Ora’s soft-pink hair is subtle compared with her wardrobe of wonderfully daring looks. But for most of us, this kind of change would make a massive statement.
