If you’ve been wondering whether you should dye your hair pink, JLo just gave you another compelling reason.
The singer and JLo Beauty founder traded in her signature bronde for a pastel pink, as revealed via hairstylist Chris Appleton’s Instagram.
Now, our first thought when it comes to colourful hair transformations like this is of course: is it a wig?
And gosh, it is damn hard to tell.
Her roots are left dark, which creates a grown-out effect that suggests there could be an element of real to it. We also love how some lighter pastel pink highlights are interwoven with darker to create dimension — this is how to do pink hair people.
Of course, this isn’t the first time JLo has been total #hairgoals. Remember that Super Bowl performance blowout? Or how she all got us hooked on the glass hair trend? All the work of Appleton too, of course.
Thinking of following in JLo’s pink hair footsteps?
Find your pefect pink
This shade of fairy floss looks stunning on JLo, but there’s a whole spectrum of pink to choose from and customise. We’re huge fans of rose gold hair. Plus, if you don’t want to bleach from root to tip, pink balayage is also an option.
Protect your hair health
If you need to lighten your hair first in order to turn it pink, make sure to fill your routine with strengthening and repairing hair products. You may also find your hair becomes drier and experiences a change in texture as a result. A hair oil will become your new styling BFF.
bh recommends: JUSTICE Professional Repairing Conditioner ($19.95 at amazon.com.au), Goldwell DUALSENSES Bond Pro 60Sec Treatment ($30.50 at Oz Hair & Beauty) and Goldwell Elixir Oil Treatment ($29.95 at Price Attack).
Upkeep you colour
Pastel pinks in particular have the habit of fading fast. Keep your colour intact for longer with an at-home hair toner like Scott Cornwall Colour Restore Candy ($17 at Coles).
Do you like JLo’s pink hair? Would you ever try the colour yourself?
Now I’m craving fairy floss haha
lol it does look like a fairy floss =D
Well, it’s contagious, Miss19 – I’ve got a shocking sweet tooth.
Oh wow I didn’t recognize Jo Lo in this picture I thought it was one of the Khardasian ladies.
I can see what you are saying…yeh so similar
Don’t have the courage or complexion to pull off pink hair. I like her beyter as a brunette.
I’m more of a purple girl myself, although I did have pink hair at one stage, you do need to bleach your hair a lot though or it just won’t show up. I can see why BH and others like the shade Rose Gold, it’s a bit more subtle.

I’ve tried pink but prefer purple, you have to lighten your hair a lot to get that shade.
It’s not for me but for Jennifer, she looks fantastic in whatever she does. She is just so beautiful and down to earth too.
Same here 🙂 She is one gorgeous lady.
Wowzers, what a dramatic change!
I have that colour in a wig.
Gosh she’s stunning! Love that on her she looks amazing no matter what she does 🎀
Wow, she looks great. I still do prefer her as a brunette though.
It looks great on her!
I’ve tried pink and purple, you have to bleach your hair pretty light to get this colour. Rose Gold is a nice colour for people who don’t want really bright hair.
I really do not have the courage to have pink hair. Or any bright colour really.
Me either because I wouldn’t want everyone looking at me because of it.
No I am the same
I don’t think she suits the pink hair. It looks like a wig.
Going against the trend. Don’t like the colour or style. She is a beautiful woman and now she looks like another Kardashian
Doesn’t suit her, I think her skin is too warm for this and her hair is overly bleached so looks like a straw. She used to have thick healthy hair. She does look stunning regardless always!
I love that colour but for some reason I don’t like it on her. I also think she has great eyebrows but her overlined lips aren’t done very well. I usually think she’s stunning no matter what but I do not like this look at all. That’s just my opinion.
I noticed a pic of her in a recent article where she also had badly overdrawn lips – otherwise, she’s always flawless!

Not a fan of this look.
She looks so good!
I wouldn’t have recognised her. She looks younger with pink hair.
She looks stunning with any colour -What a classy lady
I prefer brights to pastels. I’ll go pink again one day.
I love that!
She is stunning but I think her hair looked better before, more healthy, this looks dry. If I had her hair there’s no way I would do this to it.
i’m not sure if I like this look…
It looks great but not the colour for me.
Love this!!!
Im always telling my daughters that im going to dye my hair hot pink 🙂
This is a terrible look to me
Her hair is so pretty! but gosh, she needs to go easy on those photo filters lol
I think the colour suits her but I wouldn’t be able to pull it off.
Looks awesome. However I think she should wear any look & look fab.
I’d probably like it better without the dark roots – but gee she looks good.
I’ve in love with her cheekbones – I’ll pass on the fairy floss
I think she looked better before.
She absolutely cannot do wrong!
Wow, she looks incredible.
It’s a lovely mix of pink with a touch of purple.
Don’t really like the Fairy Floss Hair on Jennifer Lopez she always looks beautiful in her Blonde and Light Brunette Hair Style.
I had to do a double take, I thought she was a Kardashian!
Its so pretty!
Not a fan of it on her, sorry.
When my daughter wanted pink hair around 5 years ago…I was warned by hairdressers that it would probably wreck her hair because her hair was brown and would have to be stripped of colour first to get it white so that the pink would show…..they were right and it seemed to have turned her thick locks into fine hair even now after her hair is natural again.
Not rushing to do it but she looks terrific.
Love pink anything……..so I love it!
wow , thats a real lot of makeup
She is looking a bit too plastic lately
looks odd and ratty
No I haven’t tried any of these products and I’m not really a fan of the pink hair!
Not something I’d do but JLo looks great whatever she does and whatever/however she wears it.
I love the colour
