Hayley Williams has never exactly been afraid of a hair-color moment.

From the unmistakable orange of Paramore’s Riot! era to the kaleidoscope of shades she’s worn throughout her career, the singer has made changing her hair part of the fun.

Her latest look, however, takes a surprisingly low-commitment approach.

The Paramore frontwoman debuted her new high-contrast hair as she kicked off The Hayley Williams Show, the second tour of her busy 2026 schedule .

Created by longtime hairstylist and Good Dye Young cofounder Brian O’Connor, the look mixes Williams’ natural color with her existing blonde and warm brunette sections for a transformation that looks much more complicated than the process actually is.

The technique is surprisingly simple: section strategically and let the color do the work.

Shop Good Dye Young Hair Products on Amazon O’Connor, as shown on his Instagram and the product website , divided Williams’ hair into nine blocked sections, alternating the color treatment between them.

Instead of covering her entire head, he kept her natural roots and previous blonde intact in select sections.

That creates the dimensional effect without requiring a complete color overhaul.

For the brunette pieces, O’Connor used Good Dye Young Rinse Color-Kind Conditioner mixed with two to three ribbons of the brand’s KO semi-permanent color .

The mixture helped fill in the blonde before he layered Chocolate DYEposit over those sections.

After letting the first step sit for 10 minutes and the full color process for 30 minutes, he rinsed and styled the hair.
