Celebrities are like the rest of us; they want change and follow trends from the runway. Often however they get the tips from the hairstylists before we even know what trends are emerging, so keeping hair watch when it comes to celebrities color change can lead to your own change inspiration.

Celebrity Hair Color 2012

Redheads, brunettes, blondes, and ombre tips are all in trend for 2012. Check out below what the A-list is turning their shade to this season and what might work for you.

Ombre Hair Color Trend

Many celebrities are turning their strands into the ombre trend. A fantastic trend to grow out your old hair color while you decide on a more permanent color.

  • Rachel Bilson is one beauty making the ombre trend her own, with dark brunette streaks at the roots and a sun-kissed blonde hue towards the ends of the strands.
  • Hilary Duff has let her hair go the ombre root naturally since she discovered she is expecting her first child and it looks stunning on her. Her strands are going from a deep auburn to beach-lit blonde.
  • Drew Barrymore is a starlet that keeps the ombre trend alive season after season. Often photographed with deep brunette roots and light blonde tips she keeps this look casual and fresh.

Natural Rich Color

A trend that will last well into 2012 is the more “natural”-looking rich brunettes and deep auburns. Think of Sofia Vergara’s golden undertones and her warm brown shade. The good news about the natural-rich color of brown is that it is low maintenance and suits most complexions.

Champagne Blonde

The luxurious champagne blonde seen on Taylor Swift and actress Sienna Miller is a popular hue to transition from 2011 to 2012.

Deep Red

The deep red shade for 2012 goes more natural rather than shocking, though saying natural might be misleading as the red hue is one of the most high maintenance colors to choose. Celebrities that wear it well are Drew Barrymore, Julia Roberts and Julianne Moore.

Go low-maintenance with ombre hues or rich browns, risk a change with champagne blonde, or spend your time looking after high-maintenance locks with deep red shades. In 2012 make your hair stand out for all the right reasons, healthy glossy strands!
