Hot Huez – Hair Chalk – Product Review

By: comment

Bright Colors On Darker HairWe Tried It!

Confession – Yes, this is a ‘As Seen On TV’ product! Our 7 year old daughter has long brown hair and is fascinated with brightly colored streaks of hair – since we have taken the ‘dying’ her hair discussion off the table for now – we decided to try this out as a fun alternative.

Here are the contents:
It was the little insert piece of paper that caught my attention:
 I can simplify this piece of paper for you – this stuff will get everywhere if it is not handled carefully! 
It is a ‘chalk’ but resembles a pressed powder and can flake and crumble.  
TIP – Once we read this we moved the activity OUTSIDE.
It wasn’t too messy – I did end up with some on my hands but it washed off easily.
TIP – I should have put a towel around my daughters neck like a cape.
Here is an open compact:

Now to the fun part – coloring! Your hair should be free of additional styling products – however have some spray leave in conditioner available – you will need this to PRIME the hair strands – this give the color something to cling to and if I had to guess it protects the hair too.

Select a small section of hair and place the hair ON TOP of the sponge part of the compact, closing the compact on the hair section and gently squeeze and bring the compact to the bottom of the hair.

Color!
Even on her dark brown hair she had a hot pink streak – she was thrilled! 

Next step – SET THE COLOR – using hairspray spray the color streak, this will keep the color intact on the hair and keep it from getting on your clothes, hands, etc.

The color was faded after a day of brushing and styling and easily washed out.

IN SUMMARY – This product was fun and easy to use – the colors would be VERY BRIGHT on lighter colored hair – but we were happy with the results on dark hair – IT WORKS!

TIP – This would be a fun activity for a sleep over or a home ‘spa day’.
