Kim Kardashian West’s New Icy Blue Hair Is Giving Us All the Winter Vibes

It looks like Kim Kardashian West had a very blue Christmas. The mom of two (soon to be three!) debuted an icy blue shade just before the holidays. Her hairstylist Chris Appleton was the first to reveal the new ‘do, posting a photo to Instagram of the reality star in an all-blue outfit, giving a whole new meaning to “head to toe” look. 

In a tiny tube top, sweatpants and an oversized fur-trimmed coat, Kim avoids looking too matchy-matchy by playing with various shades of blue. But, lets be honest, she could step out in a garbage bag, and it would probably be the next musty-have look. 

Appleton accompanied the candid-looking photo with the snowflake emoji, which is a perfect shade match to her hair, leaving fans wondering if a Kimoji might have been inspired by it. Either way, they’re loving it: 

However, others were quick to point out that Kim wasn’t always a fan of blue hair. Her younger sister, Kylie, was sporting an iconic blue ombre at the same time that Kim was set to marry her now-husband, Kanye West. On an episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Kim made her thoughts known, saying to her younger sister, “We must talk — the blue hair. I’ve got to be honest, are you going to get clip-ins or something to make it not blue?” When Kylie decided to stay blue for the big day, she said, “I cannot stop staring at her blue hair. Why does she have to have blue hair at my wedding?” Kim eventually said that she would “let it go”… after all, I’m sure there were more important things to worry about during her lavish event. 

Regardless of what happened in the past, it seems like Kim took some inspiration from her youngest sister, and we’re here for it. Do you think snowflake or emoji inspired hair will be the next big thing for 2018? Only time (or a Kardashian) will tell.
