THESE MIGHT ALSO BE PERFECT FOR YOU

Cotton candy hair really pleases the eyes. Although it's far from being usual, this quality attracts many women. We all want to try something vivid sooner or later in our lives. And this style is just perfect for those who love experimenting. It allows you to feel as if you were a princess from a romantic fairy-tale. Getting your hair dyed cotton candy is a way to let that little girl’s dreams come true. Below, you're going to see how variously you can breathe sweetness into your hair look!

What You Need To Know Before Getting Cotton Candy Hair

Every bright hair color is not only a bold move but also a big decision for every mane. That’s why you should make sure you know what to expect from the process of coloring, as well as how your hair may react to it. Since cotton candy hair is a bright, yet pretty light shade, you will need to work with a light base.

Super light blondes can go without bleaching, while pre-lightening is mandatory for brunettes. Some dark and medium blondes, however, will also need to bleach those locks. But, unlike darker manes, one bleaching session will be enough. Of course, to get the best results, you should find a skilled colorist who will treat your locks with respect. But, it doesn’t mean you can’t get the color yourself!

How Do You Dye Cotton Candy Pink Hair?

When you can’t help but experiment with your hair color after seeing the cotton candy trend, semi-permanent hair dyes will be your best friends. Most of such dyes come with a conditioning composition that won’t damage your hair. However, you still need to bleach your hair first before going lightweight cotton pink, and this is where you need to be pretty careful. Here’s a tip to make it right: go with a bleach kit from the same brand as the dye you’re going to use. Such brands as Arctic Fox and Manic Panic offer good quality dyes and bleach with clear instructions.

What you will need:

  • diluter
  • two bottles of semi-permanent hair dye (one pink and one orange or reddish) for classic cotton candy hair
  • hair dye brush
  • bowl
  • shower cap
  • gloves

How do you cotton candy your hair?

  1. Add a generous amount of diluter to the bowl and mix it with a drop of one color and a drop of the other.
  2. Put on your gloves, and begin applying the dye to your freshly washed bleached hair.
  3. You should work your way from the top to the tips, making sure that all of your hair is fully saturated with the dye.
  4. Use your hands to distribute the dye throughout your locks better. You can also work in sections: just do whatever it takes to dip all the locks in the dye!
  5. Now, put on a shower cap, and let the dye sit for the specified amount of time.
  6. Lastly, rinse the dye with cool water.

How To Take Care Of Your New Cotton Candy Look

The sweet cotton candy shade is like a child that you should gently cherish and protect from the evil of dryness and damage. Seriously, if you want to rock this amazing shade, you need to organize the right hair care routine for that. Otherwise, the color won’t last you long, and the hair is most likely to be damaged. Here are the basic tips that you should follow to get the most of your bright color.

  1. Switch to products designed for color-treated hair.

    Anything from your shampoo to the conditioner, which is also essential for dry colored hair, should preserve your hair color. Therefore, look for the products that are color-safe.

  2. The cooler, the better.

    Hot showers are a no-no for colored hair because hot water strips off the dye, making it fade quicker. Instead, wash and condition your hair with cool water. In this way, you will keep your color for longer and prevent your hair from drying and damaging, as hot water opens up the cuticles.

  3. Less heat, better look.

    Trust us, your hair will look and feel better if you don’t use heat a lot after you color it. Plus, when it’s colored, it’s prone to damage more than ever, so make sure to protect it.

  4. If there’s heat, there’s a heat protectant.

    In the times when blow-drying is inevitable, always use a heat protectant spray or mousse. Also, read the ingredients list carefully so as not to buy a product containing alcohol: it can dry your hair like crazy.

  5. #Air dry, air dry, air dry.

    Styling your hair with heat tools is one thing, and drying is the other. Colored hair loves to dry naturally, and when it does, it gives you a better look and longer color in turn.
