We'd like to introduce you to platinum blonde's slightly eccentric cousin, lavender hair. Not only does she add an ethereal quality to any look, but she's a boss babe when it comes to hiding gray hair. We think you two will be really happy together.

For an oh-so-subtle take on the lavender hair trend, add a strategic streak of color to your mane that will stand out when you throw your hair up in a top bun or other updo.

While it may seem like lavender hair would visually overpower bold makeup choices like a bright red lip, it can actually work quite well with equally attention-grabbing hues.

Lavender ombre hair works just as well on blondes as it does on brunettes, whose dark hair contrasts beautifully with light purple shades.
