# Technicolor Tresses Lauren Conrad Shows Us How to Rock Tie-Dyed Hair Right By Souzan Michael | Published 2011-07-10 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tie-dyed-hair References: [fashionista](http://fashionista.com/2011/07/prediction-lauren-conrads-new-tie-dyed-hair-is-going-to-be-a-huge-trend-plus-a-photographic-look-back-at-the-dip-dye-hair-trend/) & [thebeautydepartment](http://thebeautydepartment.com/hair/) After seeing Lauren Conrad's [tie-dyed hair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/witches-delight), I have never wanted to be blonde more in my entire life. Her always-flawless beachy waves have taken on an even cooler edge with pink, blue and purple tips. Conrad recently launched a beauty blog called The Beauty Department where she lets readers decide what beauty trends she should try out. A resounding 60 percent of her readers voted "yes" on this hair style, while the other 40 percent were a little more apprehensive. Boy, were the naysayers wrong. Lauren Conrad does a beautiful job of mixing last year's uber-popular [ombre trend](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/main-character-hair) and tie-dyed tresses. The end result is a look that is part bohemian, part edgy and completely awesome. Tie-dyed hair obviously works best on blondes, but that's nothing that a bit of bleach can't fix for my fellow brunettes. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.9/10 - Popularity: 56% | Activity: 84% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hair](https://www.trendhunter.com/hair) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Tie-dyed Hair Trend:** There are opportunities in the hair dye market to create new and unique hair coloring products. - **Reader-driven Blogging Trend:** Incorporating more reader-driven content, like the beauty trends Lauren Conrad tries on her blog, can increase engagement with customers. - **Hybrid Hair Styling Trend:** There's potential to create more celebrity-inspired hairstyles that mix and match popular trends to create unique looks. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Beauty Product Industry:** Innovating with hair dye formulas and creating new products to achieve the tie-dyed hair look can bring disruption to the hair coloring market. - **Blogging Industry:** Incorporating more interactive features that allow readers to engage directly with their favorite bloggers can help create more loyal and engaged audiences. - **Hair Styling Industry:** Creating more hybrid hairstyles that mix and match popular trends can bring a fresh take to the hairstyling industry and offer new creative opportunities for stylists. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Multi-Dimensional Hair Dyes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dphues-color-dream.md) - [Reimagined Tie Dye Rugs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tie-dye-collection.md) - [Vibrant Anti-Fade Hair Colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clairol-bold-bright.md) - [Future-Facing Hair Colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aveda-vibe-collection.md) - [Glowing Neon Hair Collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hally-hair-1.md) - [Defiant Hair Color Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aging-disgracefully-collection.md) - [Digital Hair Color Consultations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/licensed-colorist-ondemand.md) - [Whimsical Semi-Permanent Hair Dyes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pastel-hour.md) - [Nostalgic Hair Lighteners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hair-lightener.md)
