Experimenting with Color: Two different methods!!!

Hello there love bugs!!!

I wanted to make a very short and sweet blog about coloring my natural hair. First of all there are many different ways to do so without making the color permanent, or damaging your hair with various chemicals!!! I have watched many people on youtube, that have made tutorials on how to color your natural textured hair by using lipstick, semi-permanent colored hair spray, cream eyeshadow and one wash hair dye!!!

The methods that I have tried are the cream eyeshadow method.

How do I apply the color to my hair??? First, I use a cream eyeshadow and use my finger to smear some of the color of choice on the tips of my hair by rubbing the cream on the hair between my fingers ( middle and thumb ). I apply a generous amount of the eyeshadow cream so that the color is bright and vibrant. After I apply the color of choice, I coat my hair with my eco styler gel remix ( eco styler gel mixed with sheamoisture curling souffle and kinky curly curling custard ). The reason I do this is so that when I perspire on my face or get water on my face for whatever reason , the color does not start bleeding onto my face or onto my clothing. And then when it is time for me to co-wash my hair, the colors comes straight out. No lasting effects, and no permanent damage !!! Perfect scenario!!!

Method that I am interested in trying next: One Wash semi-permanent hair dye

I was excited to discover that Garnier has developed a clay based hair color for people that would like to color large parts of their hair with really vibrant color , without the permanence of having to have the hair dyed deep into the hair shaft. Since the dye is clay based, it coats the hair versus striping and dying deeply into the hair!!! It comes in other colors as well, but that color that I chose is listed above (obviously!!! )






Anywho love bugs!!! I will take pictures and share with you how I like this new product soon!!! Til then enjoy this Fall weather and keep a sweater with you when you travel!!! (^_^)
