Tangerine hair is a great way to prove you're ready for summer

Replace your rose gold with citrus.

Is this hair orange? Yes. Is it orange hair? No. It's tangerine hair, and it's a nice new color trend popping up on Instagram.

The pastel-y, citrus-y shades will probably cost you a while in the stylist's chair -- per Glamour, about four hours -- but if you love Creamsicles and are sick of rose gold, they're a delightful option for summertime.

Bonus: You get to look like Leeloo from The Fifth Element, but without the damaging Born Sexy Yesterday trope! Imagine the 'grams you could 'gram, y'all.

Check out a few tangerine-haired trendsetters below.
