Pastel-hued hairdos can be seen everywhere lately, from Katy Perry and Nicki Minaj to the pages of Vogue. Following a season of pastel-filled catwalks, spring's beauty and hair editorials have taken this aesthetic to another level with a number of eye-catching pastel-hued hairdos appearing in shoots. The eccentric touch of color to your tresses can be made less jarring when employed in the spirit of the ombre look.
While soft, cotton candy-tinted tresses are the most common, there has been several boldly hued models with blue, green, orange and purple looks appearing in beauty editorials as well. Teen blogger Tavi Gevinson rocked the pale gray/blue hair a few seasons ago, and the look can still be found in the odd fashion publication.
