If I buy something they buy but in a different colour .They even died they'll hair my hair colour. At first I didn't mind , I actually thought it was kinda cool, as for now I'm going insane. I even started this little rule says we're not allow to copy each other but they don't listen to me. What should I do

I agree, it could get annoying after a while, because it's your style that they're copying. But one day, they'll each have their own style, and you'll still have yours. Just enjoy it, maybe even help them by picking outfits together and going to the salon together, etc.

Say about how you REALLY love these shoes and point out the most hideous pair you can find.
Buy them (but keep the receipt so you can take them back the next day) and then when they do just start laughing that they bought really ugly shoes and you just wanted to see if they would do it.
It might annoy them a bit but it will also get the message across that they are acting like little sheep.
Good Luck!! xx
