Christina Aguilera and Lauren Conrad have little in common, except for the fact that they both like to experiment with their hair colors.
The designer is known for her subtle ombré look — a dark blonde at the roots that gradually fades into bleached-out tips — while the daring pop star recently tried a more shocking two-toned route: platinum strands with vibrant reddish-pink tips.

We would have never guessed that this ’80s children’s cartoon would someday be an influencer in the style world, but after seeing these pop stars’ manes, it appears that My Little Pony is just that.
Avril Lavigne, Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears all seem to be using My Little Pony as their tress-piration. The three singers recently revealed rainbow dip-dyed hair that’s very reminiscent of the unicorns’ manes on the retro show.
On Wednesday, Lavigne debuted her new hairdo, which features lavender highlights to go along with her already hot pink tips. And since August, The Voice judge Aguilera has been sporting her own multicolored pink-and-purple tresses.

The video for Christina Aguilera‘s latest single, “Your Body,” hit YouTube on Friday, and take it from us: it’s pretty sexy. The singer takes on a whole bunch of dangerous personas in the clip — and each character has glam hair to match, thanks to stylist Mark Townsend.
“We called the look ‘Updated Xtina,’” he tells PEOPLE of the colorful wigs and extensions used in the video. “Christina is very visual so when she told me her ideas about having colors in her hair, I immediately started gathering examples of colors I thought would work well with her blonde hair and she said, ‘I love them all!’”
The results include styles like a curly purple wig, straight pink tresses with blunt bangs, dip-dyed ends and badass braids. “Christina loves colors in her hair and she has been very into braids lately, so we combined the two for a couple of her looks,” Townsend explains.

All good things come to an end — and that includes fashion trends.
Way back when in 2007 when Lindsay Lohan called Paris Hilton her BFF, she hit the Maxim Hot 100 party in a sexy style of mini that few had ever seen before: the bandage dress.
Since then everyone has worn different variations of the sexy silhouette. There have been too many sightings to name, but some standout moments include Kim Kardashian in 2010 (second), Amanda Bynes in 2011 (third) and Jennifer Love Hewitt earlier this year (fourth). Most recently, Christina Aguilera wore the dress for a night out in Hollywood (fifth).

Christina Aguilera has worn many hats on this season’s The Voice, and not just figuratively (balancing judging, coaching and bickering with contestant Tony Lucca).
On Tuesday night’s semi-final results episode, the singer sported yet another headpiece, donning a Princess Jasmine-inspired crystal-fringed necklace worn as a headband (bottom left) by Martin Bernstein. She paired it with an American Apparel dress, a black Balmain motorcycle jacket and Loree Rodkin hoop earrings.
On Monday’s episode, Aguilera made an equally stunning statement in a crystal skull tiara by Butler and Wilson (bottom right). But even though she topped off her look with a regal accessory, the rest of her ensemble was far from demure: she skipped pants, and opted for a black peplum Alexander McQueen jacket, American Apparel short-shorts, fishnets and Christian Louboutin boots.

Christina Aguilera appeared on The Voice‘s first live elimination show Tuesday night looking soft, subtle and sexy — just the way we like her! The noticeably slimmer mentor ditched her harsher hair color and often-heavy makeup, opting for a much simpler routine.
“Our glam look all revolved around the color of my dress,” Aguilera writes on her website. “I thought it was fresh and bright and I wanted to be sure my hair and makeup complemented the color, rather than clashed with it.”
To balance the marigold Roland Mouret frock, Aguilera’s makeup artist, Jake Bailey, gave the singer “a bronze smoky eye, big lashes, tawny cheeks and a rosy glossy lip,” he writes on her site. After lining her eyes with black liquid CoverGirl liner — smudging it to soften the edges — he used a bronze M.A.C shadow on her lids and finished with a strip of false Ardell lashes and DiorShow mascara.
