Top 10+ Inspiring & Wild Hair Extension Coloring Trends (2025)

From stars to heart shapes and much more. These pictures will give you ideas you did not think were feasible.

One of the many benefits of AiryHair is that we are one of the few (if not the only one) hair extension providers that can create any hair extension. Be it a new and never-before-seen attachment type, colors that don’t exist in the typical color ring, or coon tail/print/zig-zag hair extensions that seem to be a newly discovered and quickly growing trend.

Today, we are going to list some of the best hair coloring trends that you can either do yourself or buy in the form of clip-ins, tape-ins, or flip-ins.

Side note: if you want to order any of these in the form of hair extensions, please visit our custom hair page, type in preferred hair length, hair type (natural or synthetic), color, style (we prefer pictures) and we will get back to you with a price quote within minutes.

Believe it or not, this specific hairstyle first appeared in the 1980s, and Japan popularized it through various shows and media. No, anime is not the only thing that they are good at.

You either dig it or not. However, it has been one of the most popular trends recently—and not in the United States.

This is more extreme than the others, but it will fit both men and women. Popularized by growing YouTube star Matthew Lush (and created by Alaina), it will be perfect for, you guessed it, Valentine’s Day.

The only sensible way to rock this look is with extensions or a hair wig. Don’t ruin your hair.

There are four different ways to make a hair pattern/print hairstyle. One can use the star stickers and apply them to your hair. Another involves burning your hair (also known as the hair tattoo), while the third one is achieved by using star shapes and color spray. The last option is the simplest: clip-in extension strands with star texture.

I’d go with a hair tattoo for the uniqueness factor, just not on your hair.

Despite its weird name, the so-called skunk streaks are another interesting take on hair and are similar to that of coon tails. The only difference? Yes, skunk streaks, and just like with coons, this one has also originated from Japan.

How many weird hairstyles can Japan invent? Seriously.

Another take on skunk or raccoon hair dye style – simple yet very effective zig-zag look. You can create a stunning hairstyle by experimenting with various colors, not just black or white. Be careful; too much crazy might make hair look trashy, which you probably don’t want.

This one is too extreme for my taste.

At first sight, it might look like an inverse zig-zag hair dye, and you are right. However, you can do so much more than that!

How about matching a specific necklace ornament with your hair? Or a blouse pattern with your hair? We are saying that the possibilities are endless as long as you are open to various shapes of dye—the absolute favorite of simple hairstyles.

If you don’t feel like creating shapes independently, there is a pre-made and popular choice: dye diamond and bat stripes, like the girl in the picture above. Is it too much? Well, it depends on the person, but in this situation, it looks neat.

It’s like the heart pattern for Valentine’s Day, just tuned to 11 out of 10. If you dial it down and add your favorite characters from cartoons or anime shows… Now, that’s something I would be open to doing.

If you want to feel or look like a Disney villain, then look no further than at the Cruella’s de Vil hairstyle. This look became a reality and a growing trend thanks to Nicole from Sydney. However, you don’t have to settle with black and white, as it seems that women have started creating their styles and color combos.

It’s like a vertical ombre, just with two colors and a dip-dye technique.

While previous hair dyes were on the easier side (unless you get hair extensions), we are entering the hardcore territory. Check out the best of glow-in-the-dark hair for some awesome ideas.

These are too awesome not to try. Seriously, you live only once, right?

If the neon hair dye looks too extreme for you, meet our next contender: Galaxy Hair, which will go up the notch even more, just on a different scale. A few of my girlfriends were unsure why anyone would dye hair like that. I, on the other hand, am open to any trendy ideas.

Some of these hair dyes are mind-blowing, and you can see more of these in our galaxy hair dyes post.

Last but not least is another fan favorite: rainbow hair dyes. From a few color blends to absolutely bizarre and awesome color choices. The good news? We have collected more than twenty of such hair dyes and published them here; check the rainbow color ideas post from earlier this year.

It’s one of the oldest techniques known to man. Some women can pull this look easily, while others need to look for something else.
