K-Pop Yellow Hair – Who Wore It Best?

I thought green was the unwearable hair color until K-pop idols did it again, this time glamming in yellow. And not just a deep blonde or a faze and pinch of “yellow,” the literal basic yellow to neon yellow shade. The hair shade factor has gradually become a fashion statement oozing out an individual’s personality, uniqueness, style, and occasional moods portrayed to the ever eagerly awaiting fans. As a statement piece, the hair shades bestow an identity to the idols’ personal brand further promoting their musical creations. Sophistication and exceeding normality with every fashion piece makes idols stand out despite what it is paired with as it portrays their unmatchable ability of pulling together exceptional statement pieces. Consequently the icons’ trend status increases awarding them an advantage of maintaining power in the fashion and entertainment industry they ascribe to.
