To Bleach or Not to Bleach?
For people with dark hair, using pink dye straight up will only produce a pink tint and for people with blonde or light hair it will be brighter but it still won't be florescent pink. So how do you fix this so that your hair can be REALLY pink? You bleach your hair first. Bleaching your hair strips all of the color from it and will make the pink dye last longer and be brighter. How to Bleach Your Hair
How To Color The Right Way
- Prepare Your Work Area - Pink dye will stain almost anything it gets on, especially porous materials like wood, carpet, and clothes. Make sure you cover items in the area you will be coloring your hair. Make sure you wear an old t-shirt that you don't mind getting some pink on.
- Prepare Yourself - Put vasaline around your hairline, ears, and neck to prevent dye from soaking into your skin and staining it. You should wear gloves while dying to protect your hands from turning pink. You want your hair to be freshly washed but not conditioned. Conditioner coats your hair and can prevent dye from soaking in.
- Get to Dying - Use a tint brush to cover the areas around your hairline and either side of your part. If you want to be very careful you can section your hari and apply the color section by section. If not, just use your gloved fingers to slap on the color all over. Make sure you comb your hair so that the color can get evenly distributed.
- Wait - With most pink dyes it's ok to leave the color in for a couple of hours. Just wrap your hair in plastic to keep the heat and the moisture in.
- Rinse - After your done waiting, rinse your hari in warm water untill the water runs clear. Use conditioner to lock in the color.
- After Color Care - Pink will fade quicker than other natural colors. The more you wash it the more it fades; I'm not saying to not wash your hair, but avoiding excess washing when you can. Leaving the color in longer will make the color last longer. You can use color care shampoo and conditioner, I know this helps when you dye your hair naturaly but I'm not sure how it works with pink.

So What if I can't have Pink Hair at Work?
Most bosses don't like the idea of their employees having bright pink hair and it probably isn't a good idea to test them becuase they will either make you get rid of it or fire you. Well the option for people who have bosses like this is wigs. You can either get a natural colored wig to cover your pink hair or you could get a pink wig to wear when you are not at work. Most people would probably just choose to dye their hair pink and wear the natural wig. This also applies to students in high school as most schools ban crazy colors. More Pink Wigs

Wow, I didn't know you could bleach the color out of hair (just dye it). Interesting.

This lens wigs me out - I love the pink hair rocker look on the right (young) person. I've seen lots of pink streaks lately, too. Cool lens.

I got into dyeing and wigs as a teenager. My hair is a super dark red, looks black-brown, but is all hena-red in the sunlight. I love my natural hair color, but I love the bright colors too. I've done red-red, dark blue, and pale blue, all as is straight on my hair, no bleaching first. The red came out the best, the dark blue couldn't be seen hardly at all, with the pale blue made my hair look gray!
Usually I still to wigs though, cause I like to be able to go back to my natural hair color (and besides, my super long hair takes 3 or 4 packages of dye just for one dye job!). After a while I started using natural hena dye, cause it really makes my hair glow. Well, since red dye always works well with my natural color, I just stick to red dye now, and use wigs for all other colors. I LOVE wigs! I just bought another one this past week.
Anyways, great lens!
