Hayley Williams Purple / Black Hair
Tweet
Hayley’s purple hair is both the most drastically different and the shortest-lived of her many hair colors, making it’s only public appearances at Z100′s Jingle Ball and KROQ’s Almost Acoustic Christmas in December 2008.
Hayley’s bangs are still a bright red, but the rest of her hair is a very dark shade of purple that often looks black. It looks most purple under stage lights.

finally
July 19th, 2009 at 3:20 pm
I don’t really care for this on her.
But i mean… she might be running out of ideas for hair colours. She’s dyed her hair so many times but wants to continue surprising her fans with fresh ideas.
I just personally like red better.
July 21st, 2009 at 11:34 am
Spongebob, what ever! I love all her ideas and because shes trying new things aint bad you know!!! Still love you Hayley! =D

July 26th, 2009 at 10:34 am

i love it!
thanxxx!

I love her hair so much!!
July 27th, 2009 at 11:20 am
I really like this, I’m sure it was just a phase for Hayley because it quickly disappeared. I love her hair now. It suits her.
July 28th, 2009 at 12:55 pm
i dont really like her hair in these pictures
August 1st, 2009 at 7:39 am
I like this one as i actually like every hayleys haircolors and styles. But do you think you should make a section of hayleys current haircolor ?
August 1st, 2009 at 4:38 pm
well,i~think~she~dyed~it~black,because~sometimes~if~you~dye
your~hair~black~then~bleach~it~it~will~turn~orangeyish.so~maybe
she~just~dyed~it~for~that
August 1st, 2009 at 11:57 pm
steph, that’s what i had thought at first, but apparently Hayley said that it was purple and not black.
August 3rd, 2009 at 9:42 pm
I would like this look a lot better if her bangs were longer.
The short bangs make the top of her head look narrower… and because she has a lot of jaw and cheek, and not so much forehead… it just really makes her whole face look a bit like an egg.
I’m definitely in favor of the long bangs. Much more flattering.
The color is cool, though.
August 4th, 2009 at 10:01 am
my hair was like this for a while
it just faded out actually
August 5th, 2009 at 6:14 pm
i think i want to dye my hair dark purplish like hayleys
August 10th, 2009 at 3:13 am
It’s too dark for Hayley. I mean no offense, but I just don’t think this suits her very well.
August 10th, 2009 at 3:22 pm
my hair is that color…and it’s been like that for almost 2 years now, but i think its too dark for hayley
August 13th, 2009 at 6:20 pm
i really didnt like her hair like this. she doesn’t look great with super short pixie bang.
August 15th, 2009 at 10:41 pm
I didnt really like this look on her, the color and super short bangs. Wut i luv bout hayley is her hair color always blends but the 2 colors kinda just stick out. But i luv her originality! Paramore 4 ever <3
August 16th, 2009 at 7:49 pm
Not my favorite, I think this colour is a bit too dark for her very light complexion. It looks very vampire like or something, it does not suit her whatsoever.
August 23rd, 2009 at 3:55 pm
hey, does anyone know where you would find a hair color like that purple? i’m having trouble finding one. thanks!
August 23rd, 2009 at 10:48 pm
love it!!! not as good as the orange but i like it!
September 4th, 2009 at 10:29 am
This looks awesome! She actually had purple and red hair around the same time I did!
September 5th, 2009 at 10:28 pm
lol at the 3rd pic in the second row. you can see the purple dye on her ear and on her head. :p
September 11th, 2009 at 4:26 am
i love it! it suits her BECAUSE she has a very light skin, so it brings out the contrast. but i didnt like the short bangs, and the 2 colors togheter ( i mean when the 2nd color is only on the bangs. the orange yellow mix is awesome cause its not only her bangs)
September 13th, 2009 at 10:36 am
i love it!!! so who cares if shes running out of ideas it looks great!!
September 15th, 2009 at 3:37 pm
i loove this hair, the only thing i dont like about it is how short the fringe is, other than that looove it xD
October 5th, 2009 at 3:08 pm
it looks great other than the fringe. i hate that!
October 6th, 2009 at 6:22 am
this is actually starting to grow on me, i’m beginning to really like it
October 14th, 2009 at 3:10 pm
the purple would look so good with blonde. longer bangs and a few blonde pieces
October 18th, 2009 at 6:46 pm
I love every single hair color on her. I don’t know why.
Well damn, she could go bald and I’d still love her “hair”.. stubble… whatever haha, sounds kind of creepy… :S
October 29th, 2009 at 5:29 pm
I really don’t like this on her…
November 4th, 2009 at 6:37 pm
If the fringe was a bit longer this would be a really cool look!
November 7th, 2009 at 6:54 am
I honestly don’t really like this hair color.I’ve loved all her colors until now.but this just doesn’t fit her very well.
November 7th, 2009 at 1:06 pm
This hair colour looks good tied up but down i don’t really like it the fringe is way too short!
November 19th, 2009 at 10:40 pm
Love the colour, but her bangs need to be longer. It makes her head look egg-shaped. Hahah.
November 20th, 2009 at 11:23 am
She doesn’t dye her hair for her fans. If she were to do that, she wouldn’t be blonde right now. I’m pretty sure it’s because SHE thinks it looks cool and thats all that matters.
December 6th, 2009 at 6:51 pm
In the first picture on the second row, Josh has a doll with red hair! Coincidence..? Hahaha.
December 23rd, 2009 at 11:14 am
oh dear… i really dont like this!
i mean the colours are okay…
she should have gone for a side fringe rather than a solid fringe, and i hate the length of it!
It’s wayyy too short and jagged cut..
i love Hayley, but tbh, this was a mistake!
x
December 23rd, 2009 at 4:07 pm
HORRIBLE!!!!! I am so glad she got rid of it.
December 24th, 2009 at 4:02 pm
red will always be her signature color but i love how she tries new things without caring what anyone thinks.. you go hayley!!
December 25th, 2009 at 11:31 am
imagine that purple with some light blonde parts. that would look soooooooooo good.
December 26th, 2009 at 5:35 am
I think the purple hairstyle would look better on her if she had her long, choppy bangs. I actually kind of like the purple… 2nd picture of the 2nd row… Herbangs were so short! :/ Glad she dyed her hair back to red.
December 26th, 2009 at 5:38 am
The 1st picture in the 3rd row looks awesome.
December 31st, 2009 at 12:18 pm
She looks awesome in this. I really like the last picture in the 4th row.
January 5th, 2010 at 6:22 pm
This hair makes Hayley look like she’s wearing a wig. I like it.
January 6th, 2010 at 4:42 pm
Her hair is cool I have acc. only just seen these pictures after only just dying my hair a similar shade of purple. But i am glad she got rid of the purple it doesnt really suit.
January 17th, 2010 at 3:18 pm
Errrr… It might look better if her bangs were longer. I <3 her but not really her color
January 20th, 2010 at 12:44 pm
Interesting, but not a flattering look in the slightest. It does not highlight her glowing skin or radiant eyes.
February 3rd, 2010 at 12:16 pm
This isnt my favorite colour on Hayley but i still think it suits her. I dont really like the short bangs though, they dont suit her
Shes still Awesome XD
February 3rd, 2010 at 9:04 pm
maybe if her bangs were a little longer i would like it more. really loving the colors though! something new. <3
February 7th, 2010 at 3:09 am
I actually really like it. The bangs r too short but i love the color. And i think she only died it for that appearance only. Not sure though. =]
February 19th, 2010 at 5:54 pm
Heyy, I was just wondering if anybody had any idea what hair dye she used to dye her hair purple? I really love it XD thanks x
March 14th, 2010 at 12:27 am
When I met Paramore, my hair were exactly that color, only the fringe longer and orange, not red. Hayley told me she liked it a lot and I was so happy.
Then, the next december, she did the same and I was like… woooh, did I influence my favorite singer in the world?
March 15th, 2010 at 10:24 pm
eh i like the whole purple hair idea but i think she should have done a lighter purple so her hair didnt look like black when it wasnt in the light, also i think her bangs look really good with her hair
March 18th, 2010 at 5:11 pm
i think the thing that bothers me the most is that her bangs where so short…
March 24th, 2010 at 7:41 am
love her hair <3
March 28th, 2010 at 12:07 am
i actually kinda like her hair with the blue bangs. idk y. but shes def my inspiration especialy her cherry red nd her yellow nd red.
March 28th, 2010 at 12:08 am
but def love her purple hair. she has awesome ideas.
March 29th, 2010 at 10:36 pm
the first pik in the third row looks the best
April 13th, 2010 at 11:03 pm
I luv this hair coulor!!! But i almost got myself kicked out of skool cuz i came with this coulor and once again my idiot teacher (why the hell did my skool hire her??) said ‘Why the heck is ur hair this coulor? U do know you look soooooo dumb!’
April 14th, 2010 at 2:52 pm
the bangs are to short for her…
April 20th, 2010 at 2:49 pm
@lolla: whatever, if you think her bangs r 2 short, u should see what my friend’s sister did 2 mine. she chopped all of my bangs and i look soooooooo bad.
May 2nd, 2010 at 8:38 pm
I LOVE the purple color….and the red, for that fact. But, i think her bangs are too short. I think it would have looked nice if her bangs were longer, like in her other haircuts.
May 12th, 2010 at 12:21 am
i LOVE this!!!! this and the cherry red r my fave.
May 28th, 2010 at 3:30 am
I dyed my hair purple again! My bff Areil tried 2 kill me though….. she says i look like a anime gurl. i told her ‘Ur on drugs if u hate this gurl!’
June 6th, 2010 at 1:43 am
Well, didn’t she say that it was supposed to turn out *black* and red? I am pretty sure I remember her saying that in one of their videos. So then the purple was actually just an accident?
June 27th, 2010 at 3:23 pm
i acctually like this color, but because of her bangs i prefer it when it’s in a ponytail. i can’t really explain it.=P
June 29th, 2010 at 7:06 am
This is nice, but i liked the red one better. I love red and orange on her ♥
July 6th, 2010 at 7:15 pm
I didnt know she ever had this. I’m like in love with hayley but this hair is a disappointment for me…
July 16th, 2010 at 5:00 am
although its very different to her other colour choices, i actually like it. its original, and unique. Though it would look alot better with her fringe longer =/
July 16th, 2010 at 12:40 pm
i agree exactly with Roxy
July 23rd, 2010 at 4:16 am
I like the purple on Hayley, it’s cute. but the purple and the red doesn’t go well together. =
July 27th, 2010 at 10:05 am
I love Hayler, ands especially her beautiful hair, but I don’t really care for how the contrast of the bangs and the purple.
July 27th, 2010 at 2:14 pm
Not too keen on the two tone hair. But i like the main hair colour (excluding fringe.)
July 29th, 2010 at 4:10 am
my least favorite of hers. but her face looks gorgeous here
http://hayleyfashion.info/hair/redblack/11.jpg
sometimes dark hair can really bring out facial features.
July 29th, 2010 at 10:56 pm
I actually think that the color looks really pretty on the 3rd row, 4th pic. I think that it brings out her eyes…
August 6th, 2010 at 1:33 am
No one else coulda pulled it off, but she rocked it!!! I like the ponytail pic. She looks so cute!
August 15th, 2010 at 2:25 pm
i don’t like the red bangs, she should try completely black
August 24th, 2010 at 8:14 am
I think her bangs were way too short, they made her face shape look weird.
August 26th, 2010 at 9:33 pm
The short fringe isn’t doing much for her, but I love the colour.
September 4th, 2010 at 8:41 am
and her bangs should be swept to the sides, i don’t like short fringe on her
September 12th, 2010 at 12:08 pm
i like the colour but it would be way better if it was all the same without the red fringe, and if the fringe was a bit longer. still coll though
September 17th, 2010 at 4:27 pm
I think it woulda looked much better without the red bangs- maybe just all purple.
September 22nd, 2010 at 7:05 pm
one day she should dye her hair a dark brown. I wonder what it would look like.. Ive never seen hayley with a natural hair color, only red yellow orange etc…
October 4th, 2010 at 11:05 am
I loved this hair colour on her, it’s something different. Wish she kept it for longer.
October 4th, 2010 at 10:29 pm
i think it was temp. hair color. like the kind that washes out after a couple days
October 18th, 2010 at 4:24 pm
hayley williams!<333333
my sweet love!!!<333333
November 5th, 2010 at 3:55 pm
i really like her hair color here. i like it that it looks more purple in the light, but too bad it did not look like that when it was not. also for my taste, her bangs are too short.
November 9th, 2010 at 1:19 pm
i agree exactly
November 10th, 2010 at 9:11 pm
i think it would’ve looked a little better if the bangs were longer and maybe a darker color… but i still love the colors!!!! PURPLE!!!!
November 14th, 2010 at 8:11 pm
i wish if she dry her hair purlpe with pink highlight !!!! it will be sooo coool !!!
i like the 3rth in the fist list !!! vry layered just like i like it !!!
November 16th, 2010 at 7:20 pm
This color is Feria: Choclate Cherry you can pick it up really everyhere its my favorite color i have dyed my hair so far i got mine at safeway (:
November 20th, 2010 at 4:48 pm
HOW DO I NOT REMEMBER THIS?? I HAVE KNOWN ABOUT PARAMORE SINCE THEY STARTED!
December 14th, 2010 at 8:26 pm
that is sooooooooooooooo awesome!!!!!
December 28th, 2010 at 9:11 am
I think it would’ve looked really awesome if she have had long bangs and side-parted them.
December 30th, 2010 at 10:32 am
I have to say, short bangs arent my thing, they always look like the hairdresser accidentally cut too much off :/ And I have to say that purple isnt her best colour, but I love it in the 5th pic 2nd row xoxoxox
January 11th, 2011 at 10:40 pm
Oh my gosh!
January 25th, 2011 at 9:00 pm
manic panic
February 13th, 2011 at 9:31 am
I don’t like this haircolor. It looks just ugly for me.
Hayley’s best hair is the orange color!
March 11th, 2011 at 5:16 pm
That’s not PURPLE!
March 11th, 2011 at 9:38 pm
umm … yes it is …
March 19th, 2011 at 1:57 pm
You should try Swarzkopf, I actually have my hair dye in purple and it’s a little brighter than hers but still good, it makes a really great color
April 12th, 2011 at 8:15 pm
I don’t know what she used but Directions in plum comes out a similar colour, I dyed mine from really dark brown and it came out really bright
April 14th, 2011 at 12:24 am

April 16th, 2011 at 3:47 pm
It’s a shame that her bangs are short and red.. it would of been so nice if they weren’t
May 7th, 2011 at 11:07 am
idk why but the fact that the bangs are so short makes me like it even more xD
May 11th, 2011 at 8:32 pm
I really like the picture 2nd row 3rd picture…. she looks pretty …. I LOVE HER SOOOOOO MUCH …. shes amazin’ lol =)
& i have my hair like her color but i have it long i wanna cut it like hers lol….
May 17th, 2011 at 7:19 pm
Hayley just died her hair purple again. It looks awesome!!
could you post it please??? thank you! 
May 27th, 2011 at 5:53 pm
I do quite like this.. Quirky!
June 2nd, 2011 at 9:55 am
Really? Are there any photos online?
June 9th, 2011 at 6:16 pm

Here’s a pic of her purple hair. It looks awesome! But, everytime she dyes her hair purple, it is alwas short lived.
July 14th, 2011 at 10:23 pm
am i the only one that notices Zack in the background of pic number 5??
August 21st, 2011 at 6:35 pm
cortne , when did hayley colored her hair purple again ?
August 21st, 2011 at 6:36 pm
when did hayley colered her hair purple again ?
September 20th, 2011 at 8:32 pm
Not a fan of her bangs
September 30th, 2011 at 6:08 pm
I hate how everyone says it’s black. IT”S PURPLE! It only looks black because of lighting and purple always makes your hair look black. Trust me my sister did that and it looked purple.
September 30th, 2011 at 6:08 pm
I mean black. Black. :/
November 6th, 2011 at 12:13 am
HER SHORT BANGS ARE AWFUL WHY DOES SHE KEEP DOING THIS TO ME?! and she should stick to red. oh my god i wish she would never get straight bangs again.

Please i luv u but this hair color is crap ;(
January 7th, 2012 at 7:23 pm
lol I just did this to my hair xDD Black with red bangs. It actually looks pretty cool.
February 19th, 2012 at 10:22 pm
I don’t think it would looks so bad if her hair was all one color and if her bangs were longer
