DIY FRIDAY: Colored Hair Dye!

Today's DIY Friday is one of my personal favorites and with summer coming up, I really think it will be fun for you all to experiment with it at home too! For those of you who have been following us on instagram (@buylovegivelove) you know that Jamie dyed the tips of her pink for Coachella weekend. After a week though, the pink slowly faded- tip: color hair dye fades VERY VERY QUICKLY, the more you dye it though, the longer the color will stay. Since Jamie didn't want to spend more money at the salon coloring her tips pink again (esp since it's fades so quicky), after much going back and forth, we decided to try it on her hair ourselves and it turned out great!

Jamie purchased the pink hair dye herself at a local Sally's Beauty Supplies.


DIY INSTRUCTIONS:


1. you must use color on already blonde or pre-bleached hair


2. use a sandwich bag or plastic wrap to dip hand into the dye


3. put the color on the blonde or pre-bleached streaks you want colored


4. leave the color in for about 30 minutes


5. wash out the color with cold water


And the that's all! :)


It's always a little scary dealing with color on hair, but after trying it once, it definitely was a lot easier than we thought! The best thing about this is you can save so much money by doing this at home. You can always ask a friend to help you too so you can have an extra set of hands and make it a sleepover night! Hope this helps and good luck!
