    Based on our crystal beauty ball (AKA the fact that we see rosy-hued hair on a new celebrity head everyday) and the changing seasons (hello, spring pastels!), we're pretty sure Manic Panic's about to be sold out everywhere. From Cara Delevingne's punk-pink festival hair to Gwen Stefani's '90s bubble-gum pop waves, there's no shortage of celebrity inspiration to help you take the color leap.

    Katy Perry

    Katy Perry

    The Firework singer wrapped up the Asia leg of her Witness World Tour with an ode to Tokyo and South Korea. On Instagram she confirmed that the countries' cherry blossoms inspired her to dye her platinum blonde pixie hot pink.

    Known for taking major hair risks, Kim confirmed on Twitter that her ice-pink hair is, in fact, real, thus giving new life to grown-out roots everywhere.

    Nicole Richie

    Rainbow hair queen Richie's neon pink pixie may be our favorite shade she's ever sported.

    Lily Allen

    Lily Allen

    Because Lily Allen looks like she's having more fun than all of us in this punk-y shade of deep pink (and milkmaid braids!) .

    Katy Perry

    In which Katy Perry makes the case for pink haired ladies having the most fun. We love that she's wearing it in a retro style, too.

    Our recent cover girl kills it with a bright pink dye job that perfectly accents her bubblegum pink lipstick.

    Lady Gaga

    Never a red carpet wallflower, Lady Gaga makes a case for "going halfsies" with half a head of pink curls.

    Abby Lee Kershaw

    Kershaw shows us how to pull off a pastel treatment the only way a supermodel could: in two-tone mermaid lengths.

    Diane Kruger

    Is there any better to way to go punk than a jolt of pale pink at the tips of your ponytail? *takes notes*

    Fernanda Ly

    Model-of-the-moment Fernanda Ly is known for her long pale pink locks, which she's wearing crimped for a Marie Antoinette (well, uh, the Sofia Coppola version) look.

    Lauren Conrad

    Lauren Conrad

    A more intense version of Kruger's ponytail, our favorite California girl Lauren Conrad shows how to rock dip-dyed hair with a flair.

    Kendall Jenner

    Kendall Jenner

    Whether she's going pink IRL or it's just temporary, we're loving Jenner's strawberry shade against her intentionally-exposed roots à la her sister Kylie.

    January Jones

    Jones show us that a single pink statement streak is sometimes all you need.

    Rumer Willis

    Willis' hot pink and peachy tones give us serious strawberry-banana vibes.

    Jemima Kirke

    Jemima Kirke

    Kirke's ridiculously long, mermaid locks became all the more striking thanks to these ethereal fuchsia swirls.

    Kate Hudson
    (Image credit: Getty Images)

    Kate Hudson

    Hudson gave her signature golden blonde strands a soft, rosé tint we'll never stop coveting.

    Kaley Cuoco
    (Image credit: Getty Images)

    Kaley Cuoco

    Her edgy, asymmetrical chop was all the more badass thanks to these strokes of purplish-pink.

    Sienna Miller

    Miller proves that dark roots and rose gold are a match made in cool-girl beauty heaven.

    Chloë Grace Moretz

    Chloë Grace Moretz

    Moretz goes especially subtle, only sporting deep pink streaks on one side of her mane.

    Alicia Keys

    Alicia Keys

    Adding dimension to Keys' raven black hair, these skinny pink streaks are everything.

    Rihanna

    Rihanna

    RiRi's blush-toned pixie is not for the faint of heart (and that's why we love it).

    Ellie Goulding
    (Image credit: Getty Images)

    Ellie Goulding

    Always one for an eye-catching dye job, Goulding gave her white-blonde hair a carnation pink tint.

    Hayley Williams

    Cyndi Lauper
    (Image credit: Getty Images)

    Cyndi Lauper

    The '80s icon will be forever young thanks to her free spirit and her textured pink champagne 'do.

    Dakota Fanning

    Dakota Fanning

    For those shy of colored dye (heh), take note from Fanning who only dons a few chic pink streaks at the ends of her strands.

    Rachel McAdams
    (Image credit: Getty Images)

    Rachel McAdams

    Achieving the hot pinks streaks we always wished we could pull off, McAdams made it look totally Hollywood Glam.

    Demi Lovato

    Demi Lovato

    Because dark brunettes can (and should!) get in on the fun too, magenta tips are perfect for a wispy cropped 'do.

    Katy Perry
    (Image credit: Getty Images)

    Katy Perry

    Another take on a pink lemonade dye job, Perry's look is slightly faded and grungy. (In the best way.)

    Sky Ferreira
    (Image credit: Getty Images)

    Sky Ferreira

    Instead of a basic touch-up, make like Ferreira and get rainbow streaks on the roots.

    Gwen Stefani

    Gwen Stefani

    Fact: No one will ever top this OG feathery, bubble-gum pink dye job.
