For almost a year now I have wanted too dip dye my hair and last night me and my friend did! We went too a specialist shop too buy the hair colour then we bought cheap tinting brushes and foils from poundworld! I cannot believe how easy this is too do!
Foil, tinting bowl and brushes(came with 3in a set) both from Poundworld.
Directions Hair colour £3.99 from a specialist shop but also avaliable from Ebay.
I chose the colour Carnation Pink for super bright pink colour. For brighter colour on darker hair its advised that you bleach your hair first with a bleaching kit, I didnt have too carry out this step as I have blonde hair anyway and still managed too get a bright colour!
Step by Step...
1. Place your colour in the tint bowl that you have and prepare your foils you will need around 1-2inch thick strips.
2. Apply your colour too damp hair with your tint brush evenly too the ends of your hair covering every strand. You need too apply your colour too around 1-2inch thick sections this makes sure your colour is neater.
3. Now wrap your foil around the coloured part of your hair on the ends.
4. After leaving the colour for the recommended 15mins, personally I left mine on for 30mins even with blonde hair. Rinse with cold water and conditioner if necessary, DO NOT SHAMPOO this will wash all of your colour out!
5. Blow dry and style as usual and there is your dip dyed hair!
I'm so happy at how mine turned out!
Will you be trying this trend?
