Her friend Kim Kardashian also often wears wigs. Her hairstylist Chris Appleton told The Hollywood Reporter, 'The thing with wigs is they’re better than they used to be, for sure.

'When we’re talking about a dramatically different cut or color, I always suggest that you try a wig first because it gives a vibe of how it will look and how it a new color will change your skin tone. 

'Or do clip-in bangs if you want to just try them to see how you feel. And clip-in ponytails are great.'

Paris also told ET she will always be grateful to her mother, Kathy Hilton, for teaching her from a young age to look after her skin.

 'I'm all natural and I really thank my mother for that,' said the DJ.

'She always taught me to stay out of the sun and to take really good care of my skin.

'I go once a week to Angela Nice and get facials and my favorite is her oxygen facial. And she also has another one called the red carpet facial. And then I get my Glam App done after and I'm just ready for a fun night out.'

And the Stars Are Blind singer isn't afraid to try out unusual beauty treatments, including experiencing extreme cold temperatures.

'I just tried the cryotherapy recently, and it was so cold like, literally it's like you feel like you're in Alaska. It's insane. I hope it works,' said the cover girl.

Paris recently admitted she feels 'flattered' when people copy her style, especially the silver mini-dress she donned for her 21st birthday, which has since been worn by Kendall Jenner and Blake Lively.

She said: 'As soon I put that dress on, I knew it was iconic.

'I'd never seen anything like it before, and it was so me. So to see so many people using it as inspiration is just the best. Even just on Instagram, I've seen so many replicas. And a lot of girls wore it for Halloween last year.

'Imitation is the highest form of flattery. I mean, it's the ultimate birthday dress. Everybody should wear that dress on their birthday.'
