So our favourite girl from ‘The Hills’, Lauren Conrad has dyed her hair purple!

LC is known for her perfectly curled coifed blonde hair, so I have to say I was a little shocked that she went for such a bold move. She did get multi-colour streaks in the ends of her locks back in 2011, so I guess I shouldn’t be that surprised, but this is the first time she has properly changed her overall look.

The 28-year-old announced the news on her blog under the title ‘Pretty in Purple’ and I have to say that I definitely agree she looks great. Obviously you can’t see the overall effect as the image only gives you a glimpse of the fashionista’s new look. However, from what I can see, if suits her colouring perfectly and looks absolutely gorgeous.

Lauren says the colour she used is semi-permanent, so it will last from 6 to 8 weeks, which is a definite bold move, as some coloured dyes fade almost as quickly as you put them in.

I am extremely jealous of anyone with blonde hair who can achieve this look easily, as I adore it. Being brunette all my life, I have only really experimented with red shades so far, as this easily washes out again. I have decided that I am definitely going to experiment with dip-dyed ends this spring/summer however, which will enable me to experiment with more colours. I  might even try going fully blonde for the first time after that – exciting!

Anyway what do you think of Miss Conrad’s new purple do’? And do you think pastel shades will be big this summer?

Let me know below!
