7. Opal Balayage Lob

Guy Tang is rocking it again with lilac and lavender balayage hair. The effect of the two colors mixed together in this long bob is like that of an opalescent jewel, glinting in the light.

8. Messy Lavender Mermaid

This look is simple, with just solid lavender locks dyed all the way through. However, keeping the hair a little messy, and adding flattering layers near the front to frame the face a little, makes this shimmery metallic color a little more natural, as though you’ve just burst through the ocean’s waves.

9. Metallic Lavender Lob

Tousled waves are always stylish, and they make this long bob haircut look a little shorter and funkier. Ombre lavender hair color ideas are all the rage, with a darker purple near the top fading into a metallic pale lavender.

10. Warm and Cold Balayage

This two-toned purple balayage hair is a flattering mixture of warm and cold shades of purple that’ll suit most skin tones. Keeping the roots dark saves you salon visits, and the combo of the relaxed half knot at the crown and loose curls is a soft and effortless look.
