Bianca Censori’s rocking pink hair like Marie Antoinette, Kurt Cobain and Kylie Jenner before her – and psychologists say there’s a good reason why

Bianca Censori’s rocking pink hair like Marie Antoinette, Kurt Cobain and Kylie Jenner before her – and psychologists say there’s a good reason why

Whether it’s a punky neon shade or a Gen Z approved dusty rose hue, dyeing your hair pink is having a moment – but the trend is far from new.

Pink hair has long been a popular choice among free-spirited public figures, from Marie Antoinette to Madonna, Kurt Cobain, and Kylie Jenner.

Bianca Censori is the latest to join the club, yesterday revealing her bright pink locks as she stepped out in Paris alongside her husband, Kanye West.

Thanks to her daring outfit choices, there’s little left that Censori can do to shock onlookers, but the new hue was a positive start.

The style might be more than cosmetic for Censori, as psychologists believe that the non-conformist look signals reclaiming control – a timely message considering widespread concerns that she’s wrapped around her husband’s finger.

Positive Psychology Coach & Master Practitioner in body image, Elle Mace, is among the practitioners with the belief that pink hair is more than a stylistic choice for Censori.

She told MailOnline: ‘Pink hair is a bold and attention-grabbing colour. It’s often used as a way for individuals to express themselves, their personality and creativity.

‘It’s a great way to stand out from the crowd and showcase your individuality and independence.’

‘It breaks the norm and is a bold and unconventional style that many people felt helped them express themselves at a time of uncertainty and routine disruption where they may have felt out of control.’

‘For some, dyeing your hair a new bold colour can be a form of self-care and therapy. It can be a calming, empowering experience that can feel like a reinvention of yourself. It is also a mood booster and can give you a boost of confidence and self-esteem.

‘Dyeing your hair a new colour is also a way to break out of your comfort zone and try something new. It can also be a rebellion against societal norms or expectations, a way of asserting your independence.’

Elle continued: ‘Pink hair can represent femininity and a statement of female empowerment, independence, and self- expression. It can also be seen as a symbol of rebellion against societal expectations and conventional beauty standards.

‘It also conveys a willingness to embrace your unique personality, sense of style and expression.’

‘As pink hair is a bold, attention grabbing statement it could also appeal to those who enjoy pushing boundaries and challenging social norms.

‘People who have pink hair might exude confidence and self-expression and enjoy embracing their individuality.’

Reclaiming control and expressing individuality might explain the reason pink hair is prevalent in celebrity culture.

The last Queen Consort of France before the revolution, Marie Antoinette, born in 1755, was known to add a pinkish hue to her hair.

She became synonymous with elaborate styles, as shown in Sofia Coppola’s eponymous 2006 film on the Austrian queen, and as she claimed more power and control, her hairstyles became increasingly extravagant.

Years later, one of the most famous s3x symbols in the world, Brigitte Bardot, coloured her blonde locks dusty pink.

She paved the way for the likes of non-conformist musical talents like Madonna and Kurt Cobain to express themselves using pink hair.

Then, it was singers like Pink, Lady Gaga, and Rihanna, who expressed their individuality and creative flair with pink locks.

It is unsurprising then, that trendy Gen Z celebrities have hopped on the pink hair bandwagon.

Perhaps most famous of them all is Kylie Jenner, known for her daring looks and her ability to set trends for her loyal fanbase to follow.

Her fellow nepo babies – Kaia Gerber and Hailey Bieber – have also travelled to the salon to colour their locks pink.

But yesterday the spotlight was on Bianca. The former Yeezy architect debuted the bright, youthful locks at the PROTOTYPES Menswear spring/summer 2025 show in Paris on Wednesday.

Bianca – who has already been a brunette and a blonde in the past – seemed happy with the new hue as she wore her shorter hair in loose, slightly wavy tendrils – although the new do may have been a convincing wig.

The Instagram favorite had very little clothing on: she modeled a backless and sheer nude thong leotard that flashed the flesh. The budding star added knee-high stockings with heels.

The stepmother to Kim Kardashian’s four kids North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm walked to the front row of the fashion show late with West by her side.

The rapper had on an all white outfit with ivory netting over his face which made it hard to tell it was really him. He also wore white gloves and sneakers. His outfit made him resemble a beekeeper.

Ye’s wife’s outfit was even more shocking in profile as it revealed that the garment had actually been cut with scissors for its daring look.

It was likely cut up by West, who is also a clothing designer for his brand Yeezy.

It is not known who designed Kanye’s beekeeper-inspired outfit. But one of his gloves said Ester with an L on the front.

His wife seemed to be leading West as she held his hand; it appeared as if the artist had difficulty seeing through his netted mask.
