Hairstyles with Purple, Lavender, Lilac, Violet Highlights

When women long for diversity, natural hair colors start to lose their seemingly ever-present appeal. The time comes to enjoy variety and brightness of extraordinary shades able to bring forward your personality and to provide the craved spotlight for all the little nuances of your individual beauty. This is when such vivid colors as violet and purple resurface.

Purple, Lavender, Lilac, Violet Balayage and Ombre

Short Hair

Dyeing your entire head in purple or lilac is pretty extreme. Some may benefit from the stark image alteration, though, but still, notwithstanding the circumstances, try special chalk for the time being. Permanent coloring that is never extreme but definitely cute, stylish and especially flattering, is best done in the balayage technique. Purple balayage on short hair is oftentimes done in a pastel hue, tender and angelic in its softness. If your hair is short and you’d like to try some extraordinary dyeing, you might want to go for it.


Multi-layered short haircuts, including but not limited to popular bobs, remain among the most convenient hairstyles for purple balayage. Hair can be either dyed along its whole mass or separated by layers so that the lower tresses stay in one color. Wavy locks often take on an enigmatic look due to the touch of lavender or lilac. The proper purple hue is just as attractive; it underlines the depth of dark hair colors and gives the lighter tresses a truly magical vibe.

Long and Mid-Length Hair

While short haircuts may seem a bit limited in terms of balayage styling, mid-length and longer manes possess the entire potential of ultimate beautifying. Even though lavender and violet ombre remains in the trend, most fashion lovers nowadays prefer balayage. The purple palette is practically omnipotent in creating enigma; make use of its versatility to enjoy your most enchanting look.
