Pastel Pink
For a look that turns heads, choose an all-over application of pink like this beautiful style. Casual waves and layers add dimension to this single-color look. Whether your hair is long or short, cotton candy pink is a sweet shade for spring and summer.

Pink and Purple Ombre
Rather than transitioning to caramel or blond ends, ask your stylist to use a dreamy shade of pink or purple. Consider coloring your roots a shade of burgundy to complement the lighter ends. An ombre look is easy to grow out, so your pink and purple hair should last and look gorgeous for months with a few touch-ups here and there.

Rose Gold Balayage
If you're blonde, weaving hints of rose gold into your hair is a great way to add dimension and a pretty shade of pink to your look. The subtle color is perfect for any time of year whether you have short, medium, or long hair.

Just the Tips
For those with short hair, a pop of color just on the tips can be a fun look. Make the color as bold as you dare from a light pastel to a vibrant hue.

Rich Purple Curls
A rich purple color combined with cascading curls can make you look like a fantasy goddess. To make sure your hair stays vibrant, take good care of it with a gentle shampoo that's designed to preserve color, such as L'Oreal Paris EverPure Sulfate-Free Color Care System Moisture Shampoo, $6.99.

Layered Pink and Purple Hair
For a look that shines and moves with your every step, apply multiple shades ranging from deep indigo to hot pink. Cutting your hair in varying layers allows each color to get its own moment in the spotlight.

Ultra-Light Purple
If you already have platinum hair, or were thinking of going platinum blonde, it will be easy for you to transition into an ultra-light shade of purple or pink hair. A delicate pastel shade glows from roots to ends.

Subtle Shine
For those with naturally dark hair, very subtle coloring will allow pink and purple hair shine in the sunlight. The nuances of a deep magenta color catch the light and make the hair look shiny and healthy.

Hints of Orange
Choosing pink highlights that are closer to the orange side of the spectrum lets you get a multidimensional look with tons of texture. Deeper purple lowlights complement the salmon pink tones for a playful style.
