Katy Perry's new purple hair

Katy Perry’s unveiled a punchy purple new ‘do – and we think it’s her best hair look yet.
Yep, the singer’s officially moved on from her Muppets-inspired hair colour, showcasing the Ribena-esque hue on her Instagram page.
While the caption had more to do with her choice of dress (“OOTD school girl raincoat vibez”), we were distracted by the singer’s chic, wavy bob cut – and her mauve make-up.
KatyCats may recall this isn’t the first time the pop princess has had purple hair – she rocked a darker shade (which we loved almost as much) back in 2012.
Want to copy Katy’s ‘do? Try L’Oreal Paris Casting Crème Gloss in Licorice or Schwarzkopf LIVE Colour Ultra Brights Magnetic Purple for strands that’ll stand out from the crowd.
Complete the look with a slick of mauve lippie (we love Ulta3 – Matte Lipstick in Misty Mauve or Designer Brands – Moisturising Lipstick in Classic Mauve) and some fun false lashes: try UBU Eye Spy Lashes or for a customised look, Ardell Duralash Starter Kit.
Are you a fan of Katy Perry’s purple ‘do? Would you dye your hair a colour this bold?

I love it! Most colours suit her, I've used the Schwarzkopf LIVE Colour Ultra Brights Magnetic Purple quoted in the article. It's more of a violet pink shade, which fades to pink. I WISH they had a nice bright purple.
