Katy Perry, Christina Aguilera And 28 Other Stars Who Dyed Their Hair Purple (PHOTOS)

30 Reasons We Love Purple Hair

Purple hair comes in many forms. For me, it's all about wigs on Halloween exclusively. But many stars have taken the plunge and tried lavender, lilac, magenta and grape-colored permanent dye. While Katy Perry, Kelly Osbourne and Azealia Banks committed to the hue, dying their whole heads, other stars (like Christina Aguilera and Demi Lovato) tried dip-dye, ombre and streaks.

Purple hair is currently a hot trend, and these ladies aren't the first to sport the color. Take a look at the photos below to see Cyndi Lauper, Claire Danes, Diana Ross and more stars with purple hair. Would you try this cool color?
