The listing, **FREE AUCTION!!!** Hair Chalking Tips!! **NO NEED TO BID!!** has ended.
I am a little sick of seeing auctions on Listia for DIY instructions that can be looked up online for free so I am doing this, and a couple other auctions in the hopes of saving some people some credits!!
Here are instructions on how to do hair chalking!! Please enjoy!! Bid if you would like, but it is not necessary!!
You'll need:
Soft pastel chalk. We picked this giant set up from a local craft store for about $5!
A small spray bottle filled with water
A flat iron or curling iron
Rubber gloves
A old towel or t-shirt you don't mind getting color on.
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.
Step 2: Color on your hair with one of the pastels. I recommend choosing about three hair chalkingcolors, 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. This was the hardest part for me - I was so anxious to see the final look!
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. Then brush and style however you normally would!
I found these instructions on the Seventeen magazine website. The blogger said the color lasted for about a week but if you bleach your hair it might not last as long. Have fun!!! :)
