“Orange Is the New Black” star Taryn Manning has ~pastel pink~ hair now and is basically unrecognizeable

Now this is a look we can get behind. Actress Taryn Manning debuted pink hair ahead of the new year and we’re kind of obsessed.

The Orange is the New Black star usually looks like a total badass with her long brown locks — at least on the show — so her new pastel hue is surprising…in a good way.

Manning plays Tiffany “Pennsatucky” Doggett on the Netflix series and while we know she doesn’t rock prison attire and brunette extensions in real life (at least not often) we are used to that ‘do.

Now that it’s 2017 however, the 38-year-old actress has spiced up her hairstyle (she was most recently a blonde) and man, do we love it!

"Never let anyone treat you like a yellow starburst," Manning captioned her first pink haired photo. "You are a pink starburst #pink thank you @keithlondon1."

Seriously, could the Virginia native get any cooler?

This edgy look is SO fierce!

Even Barbie would approve of this cotton candy color — it’s fabulous. Plus, it’s just the change up you might need (or want) for 2017.

Manning’s hair stylist even got in on the picture sharing action and we’re happy have another look at this pastel bob.

"New #haircolor for the #newyear #pastel #pink #hair for my gal @tarynmanning 🎀," Keith London captioned his photo.

Okay, we’re in love.

Orange might be the new black when it comes to Manning’s TV career, but pink is definitely the new blonde in hair color.

What do you think of the actress’ new ‘do? Would you rock a pastel pink hue?
