Bright & Suttle Hair Color

My favorite color in the whole wide world is.... Purple of course! So why not color my hair purple? (Rhetorical Question)

 I love to change up my look with various colors of hair, but for the past year and a half I've been growing my orangish/blonde hair out so it can become more healthy. What allows me to keep being creative with my hair color at this point in time, are temporary colors (some people may call them rinses or semi-permanent). Yet, those are not the only solutions to my hair coloring addiction! I also use bright colored hair extensions that are located at various beauty supply stores for super cheap.

 First, I'll explain this picture to my left. My natural hair color is a dark brown that has grown out tremendously, but the ends of my hair still have a little bit of blonde on them. So, I decided to purchase this Adore Semi-Color in the shade Purple Rage. Although it is a very bright purple, I knew it wouldn't completely show up on my dark brown hair. On the other hand, it does give my hair a purple tint in the sunlight or a well lit room which looks really cool. The rinse also showed up on my blonde ends more of a burgundy purple which also looked nice. So I was very satisfied on how it turned out, and people actually notice it too.

Oh and don't mind me being in my car lol

Now, here's another option for those people who don't want to give their hair a colored tint, or want to try out both like myself on the picture to the right. Okay, the purple tint just wasn't enough color for me. So, my friends gave me some left over purple hair extensions that they made clip-in pieces out of. You can easily make clip-in pieces out of the extensions and place them anywhere you would like on your head. Instead, what I did was use bonding glue and placed a couple of pieces under my bangs and behind my ear to give myself a 'peek-a-boo' effect. This made my purple hair stand out much more. Using bonding glue can last a couple of weeks in your hair, but if you only want color for a day then clip-ins would suite you much better.






 Putting a little bit of color in your hair can be super fun.  Don't let people talk you out of it or make you think that you'll look 'hood', 'ghetto, 'rock-starish'.. because remember--the way you carry yourself and act is how you will be perceived.  I hope this gives you some inspiration to change your look up and become a bit more adventurous!
