Hello Ladies,
Sometime last week I came across an article on CurlyNikki.com talking about an alternative to coloring your hair. Many curlies shy away from using dyes to color thier hair because of the dryness and damage it does cause. Of course there are rinses that dont contain peoxide or amonia that are completely safe and wash out in 10 washes. But if you want something that has a little more pop than the usual honey blondes and reds you can try eyeshadow! Thats right eyeshadow. Its free of peroxide and ammonia and it comes in all types of colors that pop. Blue,gold,pink,purple. Also it doesnt wash out the minute water touches your hair like spray can color does. All you do is wipe coconut oil on you hair and it rubs right out or you can apply cocnut oil and then wash your hair either way it comes out easily. So anyways I went over to Walmart to purchase the eyeshadow that Nikki used just to give it a shot..Hair color without the damage why not!
I purchased Maybelline Color Tattoo in Gold($5.47). This eyehshadow is very creamy so it works perfect for application. Ive seen on other sites that people who didnt have a creamy eyesahdow mixed the powder one with a little water and it worked the same. So I went home took a clump of curls from the back and smeared it on. Its that simple. The only thing is that I had to be generous with the Gold so It would show against my brown hair, but if you use the blue or purple they are brighter colors so It might not take that much eyeshadow to show. Anyway I LOVED IT! It was such a great idea. I applied to the front of my hair in various places and it spiced up the look of my overall hair do(twist-out). I defiently will be using this as hair color as my hair grows out. Try it and see if you like it :)
