Instruction
Step 1: Spray a 1-inch section of hair with water. You don't need to soak the entire strand, just go as high up as you want the color to be. Make sure to wet the hair first so the color will attach to it. However if you’re blonde, do not wet the hair before chalking unless you want the color to stay in longer.
Step 2: Color on your hair with one of the pastels. I recommend choosing about three colors, and putting one at a time in your hair. Start with the lightest shade first, since, as you can see, the color gets all over your gloves and you'll end up with a muddied version of the same hue throughout if you go dark to light!
Step 3: Wait for your hair to air dry. so that you don't blow off the chalk.
Step 4: Using the curling or flat iron, go over each colored strand. This sets the colors in your hair, so it will last longer. Apply hair spray as a final step.
Step 5: The color generally will only last one shampoo; however, if the hair is more porous, such as color-treated blonde hair, it can last a couple shampoos. You can use a clarifying shampoo or dish soap to remove the color more quickly -- both have more detergent. Don’t use dish soap on your whole head, just on the strands that have been colored.
Hair chalking don'ts
- Don’t apply the chalk with any wax or product in your hair.
- Don’t use water on blonde hair if you don’t want the color to last.
- Wear protective clothing when applying and sleep on an old pillow case as the color will transfer.
- Don’t try this near the water/beach or on a rainy day.
Hair chalking tips for your hair color
- Blonde -- Blondes can have a lot of fun with hair chalk, but they shouldn't wet their hair first.
- Brown -- Brunettes can use any color hair chalk. With lighter brown hair, the color will be more intense.
- Red -- Redheads can chalk their hair, too. They just need to pick the right colors of chalk.
- Black -- Those women with black hair need to pick bright, vibrant shades of chalk.
