Ombre hair color is not just regular highlights or dyed tips. The top of the hair is natural or a dark color and lightens up as it gets to the bottom of the hair. Many celebrities such as KeKe Palmer, Lady GaGa, Rihanna, and Ciara flaunts this ombre hairstyle occasionally.

3. Pastel Colored Tips and Highlights

Bring out you inner mermaid. This trend is fun and crafty at the same time being stylish and chic. There's two different ways you can get this style one being temporary and the other permanent. The temporary way is done by using pastel chalks straight from your local WalMart or OfficeMax. (Very easy to do here is a brief tutorial on how to chalk up your hair!)

4. Bun Fun

Weather you're attending a informal or formal event, this very trendy hairstyle is for all occasions. Actress Tae Heckard has been seen wearing her buns on the very top of her head multiple times.
