Hailey Baldwin Just Dyed Her Hair Watermelon Pink
In terms of celebrity hair changes, the bar for 2018 is high—Kim Kardashian-going-silver high. It’ll take a lot to beat Selena Gomez going platinum (and back), Cara Delevingne going buzzed, and all of the other major transformations that last year saw. But thanks to Hailey Baldwin, we’re off to a good start. The model just showed up with pink hair, and the shade is all-out beautiful.
Baldwin was spotted with her new color on the beach in Miami, and at first glance, it looks like another case of millennial pink. But in a turn of events, Baldwin found a way to make the color—the color that’s been everywhere for the last few years—feel brand new. Case in point: Baldwin herself went pale pink in November 2016. But where that brush with pink fit into the pale, millennial pink category, Baldwin’s new shade leans more vivid. And by that we mean, the model’s gone neon.
Or at least partially so. The interesting thing about Baldwin’s new color is that it’s actually pretty two-tone, and while that’d look out-there with two different colors, sticking within the pink family, it looks gorgeous. From Baldwin’s Instagram, it looks like the back of her hair is a dusty, rose-gold color that skews strawberry blond.
Closer to her face, the pink’s intensity picks up and it turns into a saturated, vivid hot pink, the likes of which we haven’t seen since Gigi Hadid’s pink pony. Baldwin also manages to make streaky, chunky pink roots look appealing. No surprise, coming from the woman who was wearing “soft roots” before everyone else.
Baldwin’s dabbled in temporary colored mousse for a single-use change, so there’s no telling how long her pink will stick around. The model’s known for her buttery blond color, but with the amount of intrigue she’s brought to pink, we’re hoping it sticks around.
