Here’s my final fabulous hair color ideas pic for today and it’s a stunning mid-purple pastel hairstyle to suit an oval, round or heart face.  Vivid purple shades are suitable for a warm skin tone like the model’s, as your hair color shouldn’t drain all the color out of your complexion.  To offset the vivid purple, the hairstyle is very simple and smooth with an off-centre parting and shorter lengths around the chin to soften the line.  The colour fades gradually into a neutral blonde shade and the ends have been thinned and given sharply textured tips to add a nice touch of contrasting texture to the smoothness above!
