Teal Green Can Add Royalty As No Other Can!
Now, not every girl loves to have a light and girly bedroom. Some like to go for a bold-looking, dark, and mysterious bedroom.

These colors have their own charm as the above teal green has it;’s own. Without using a leaf, you can get a forest-like peaceful feel in your bedroom!
Please note, that whenever you use a dark color in your bedroom, ensure that it’s either balanced with a light color, there is plenty of natural light in the room, or there is enough space. If one of these is not the case, your room might start looking very small and compact.
Or Just Make It Colorful!
White is our all-time favorite because it’s so flexible that it can stick with any theme, whatsoever!
So, even when you want a colorful teenage girl’s bedroom, there is no need for you to plan things out. Just get the room painted white and use neon lights all over the room! Plus, keep them colorful.

A pop of yellow is always the best to lift the mood of the room and throw boredom out as nothing else…
Peach Color Is All You Need…

Magenta is A Teen Girl’s Love!
Again, pink is the color to fall for. And magenta…the one to die for!
Magenta can brighten up and give a color pop to any room, whatsoever. It is so versatile that it goes with pretty much every color. If a bright and energetic room is required, couple it with orange. And if a subtle one is to be designed, marry it with white or baby pink. You see?

Turquoise Has A Charm Of Its Own!
Turquoise is a cool color and works best when used with white! (it’s just an opinion, by the way…)

Silver Thrives All The Time…
A princess deserves a royal bedroom! And what else can say royalty more than silver can?
That is why silver is also a good bedroom color for teenage girls. When the lights go on, everything sparkles! It’s magical!
Silver has a cool quality and when coupled with a bit of gold or white reaches the next level of beauty, altogether.
To make it prettier, use wallpapers, chandeliers, and silver lights, and you are no longer in the bedroom but in a room in the imperial palace!
Use Muted Beige
Muted beige brings the legance of brown but mutes it’s loudness. That makes it so special and preferred in most popular bedrooms for girls.
So, taking the trend forward, you can always use beige for your teen girl bedroom and couple it with various other colors, confidently.
And since girls LOVE aesthetic and artsy bedrooms, you could always add a few plants and patterns to make it all the more appealing and pretty!
The Combination Of Pink, Purple And White!
We’ve talked so much about the pink and purple bedrooms but not once about the pink and purple bedroom combination that is killer for girls! So, here we are.
Of course, the white base is what brings immense peace to the bedroom. It is in domination and pink and purple is only used in the bedding. That’s quite balanced, easy to create and peaceful!
Plus, whener your teenager asks you to change the color of the bedroom (maybe, the next week) all you have to do is change the bedding! it’s THAT simple.
Light Gray Is A Nice Color Too
Another great paint color for a girl’s bedroom is light Gray. It’s not as bold or dingy as dark gray is and not so fun and enthusiastic as the other colors.
It’s quiet, still and silent. But, it surely lifts the mood of the room when paired with colors like red, magenta or royal blue!
So, it is definitely dynamic! If that’s how your teen is, look nowhere else.
Or Use No Color At All!
To keep up with the trend or maybe, create a bedroom interior that’s evergreen, you can even consider skipping wall color altogether!
Instead, you could use wall panels of various designs, or even wallpapers. They are quite easy to maintain plus they look absolutely lovely!
The Endnote
There are so many color ideas for a teenage girl’s bedroom but there were a few that we found the best of all!
All that you want to keep in mind while decorating a bedroom for teenage girls or anyone is that it must be balanced and not too gaudy or bright. That is why white, gray, beige, and other neutrals are used along with the other colors.
Plus, remember to engage with your teen while you engineer her bedroom because eventually, it’s HER bedroom, right? She’ll have some experience from doing it and you’ll have some fun too.
No more sage advice anymore!
