Periwinkle Hair Dye Pre-Color Preparation
Before starting, prep your area for a mess-free, stain-proof experience. Here’s what you’ll need:
Gloves (we give you those) |
Freshly washed hair |
Hair ties |
|
clips |
|
Cape or old t-shirt |
bobby pins |
The Coloring Process
After preparing all the materials you need, let’s now dive into the coloring process.
Step 1: Mix it
@ashley_unicorn mixes our Pastel Blue & Vibrant Purple Coloring Conditioners for a dreamy Periwinkle pigment to use on her platinum blonde hair. You can combine different ratios of blue and purple depending on how you want your Peri— add more blue for a cool, mintier shade and purple to get that fairy lilac look.
Step 2: Section Off your Strands
Depending on your hair type and length, use clips or bobby pins to separate your hair into sections for easy application. Applying color from the bottom layers of hair up to the top is recommended, but you can start anywhere as long as you get full coverage.
Step 3: Saturate And Wait
Wearing the gloves provided, saturate strands with your dreamy Periwinkle mix and let it sit for 10-15 minutes. That’s enough time to make some tea, have a snack, scroll the gram, and cuddle your cat— but no face cuddles. Unless… *dreams of owning a Periwinkle cat*
Step 4: Rinse to Reveal
Rinse hair with your preferred temp (yes, you heard right, it doesn’t have to be cold to get that dreamy Peri shade you desire), and squeeze excess water out with a towel to avoid stains, although these pigments are light enough that you shouldn’t have to worry.
Step 5: Show it Off
Simply dry and style as usual. Voila! And just like that, you can have a fantasy look that’s light, timeless, and makes a bold statement.
