Amazing color that lasts! Have some application tips, too!
I had my hair highlighted at the salon with pink highlights and I noticed it started to fade almost immediately. My stylist pulled me aside and told me that she uses Special Effects at home and it lasts a long time! She was right! I left it in for about 2 hours (instead of the recommended 15 minutes) and the parts of my hair that were bleached because a vibrant pink. The rest of my head (which is dark brown) became a lovely violet color. I love it!!!<br /><br />A couple tips:<br />- Wear gloves when applying. You can get a box of cheap gloves from a drugstore.<br />- Use a mascara brush to apply it. I had a mascara wand that I<br />I had gotten from Sephora that I had not used for mascara. You can dip it into the bottle and carefully apply it to your hair. It helped me control where I wanted the dye to go AND it kept it off my scalp and ears.<br />- Use clips to separate your hair. If you do your hair in sections, you won't get any on your clothes, ears, forehead, etc.<br />- Put a plastic tarp (like one from a hardware store to use when painting) on the counter and floor. Trust me, it's easy clean up and can be reused every time you color.<br />- After rinsing your hair in the bathtub, spray some Lysol bath & tub cleaner or similar immediately on the tub and let it soak. I did that every time I rinsed my hair for the first couple days and my white tub is not pink. No scrubbing needed.<br /><br />Good luck and have fun!
