How I Color My Hair

I've always had people ask me whether or not I get my hair done at a salon - the answer: no. As a college student, it's financially impossible for me to visit a salon every 4-5 weeks and pay over $80 for someone else to do my roots. Okay, so it's not technically "coloring", but here is a little peak into my root-bleaching routine....

 

Supplies (from Sally Beauty Supply)

- Mixing bowl & brush

- 30 Volume Cream Developer (2 fl. oz.)

- Quick Blue bleaching powder (1 Packet)

I usually leave the mixture on my roots for about 20 minutes. As I wash the bleach out, I use the generic version of Clairol Shimmer Lights purple shampoo in order to get rid of any brassiness or yellow-ish tones in my hair. So there you have it! A simple & frugal alternative to going to the salon! :-)
