If you've ever saved one of Miranda Rae's hair photos and immediately thought — Okay, but how do I recreate this? — you're in the right place!

From dreamy mermaid blends to bold Y2K moments, content creator icon and GDY bestie Miranda Rae has a way of making every color combination feel effortless. While her mix-n-match looks may vary, there's one shade that keeps finding its way back into the mix: Baddie.
When Miranda Rae teamed up with us to create her perfect shade of pink, Baddie was the answer to all of her prayers. The ultimate bubblegum pink, Baddie has become a signature staple in Miranda's color rotation. Bright, playful, and impossible to ignore, it's the perfect shade to wear on its own — but Miranda also loves to melt, mix, and pair Baddie with some of her other GDY favorites.
We rounded up some of Miranda's most iconic color combinations so you can steal the look (or make it your own).
THE SHADOW ROOT

For anyone who loves a lived-in pink with extra dimension, this high-contrast pairing is the move. Miranda combines bright pink lengths with a deeper shadow root to create contrast, depth, and an effortlessly cool grow-out. The result is a bold but wearable look that feels just as good weeks later as it does on day one.

THE Y2K RACCOON TAIL

The early 2000s are back, and we’re loving every second of it. Also, punk’s not dead and it never has been! This playful alt color trend takes inspiration from classic raccoon-tail highlights and gives them a modern GDY twist. Paired with Baddie's vibrant pink, Ex-Girl adds the perfect pop of contrast for a look that's equal parts nostalgic and new wave.
Shades Used:
MERMAID WAVES

If mermaids had mood boards, this would be on them. This multidimensional blend layers soft pinks, warm peaches, and dreamy pastel tones for a romantic color story that looks different from every angle. The combination creates movement, softness, and a little bit of magic with every wave.
