We’ve had a few weeks to get used to Nicole Richie‘s purple hair, and now we have to admit, it totally suits the star. Honestly, the style and beauty risk-taker can pull off just about anything, but when we caught up with her at the AOL Newfronts, we were curious if she’s as used to her lavender tresses as we are.


“Surprisingly, it feels like having blonde hair,” Richie told PEOPLE. “My colorist Danny Moon, when I talked to him about it, he said, ‘I’m telling you, you’re not going to feel that different. Having purple hair has the same hue as having blonde hair, and you’re not going to feel that different.’ And he was actually right.”


Purple hair enthusiasts should not get too attached to her vibrant shade. Richie might be changing it up before summer. “You know what — I didn’t even know I was going to have purple hair until two days before I had it so it’s hard for me to say if I’m going to have it for summer or not. But we’ll see.”

Richie was at the Newfronts promoting her web series #CandidlyNicole, which has sparked her new VH1 unscripted series by the same name. And she said that interaction from her fans on social media — her Twitter was voted by Time as one of the best celebrity accounts of 2013 — is key to the show’s success.


“When we choose the episodes, we go on my Twitter and we see what people are really responding to, what people want to know more about or dive into,” she explained. “The show is not me, telling people, ‘You have to listen to me, I know everything about everything.’ It’s me saying, ‘I have no idea about anything, and I don’t think you do either and let’s just go on this journey together because it’s just fun. And let’s learn about these things and laugh at the same time.’”


Maybe she’ll try another big hair change on her show. Can we get that started on Twitter? What should Richie do next? Do you like her purple hair? Tell us in the comments.
