The Purple Hair Experiment

This post is sponsored by Vivid Shades Semi-Permanent Hair Color via Mode Media but all opinions are always my own.

Purple hair has been on trend for the last several years and even though I’ve always thought it was really cute, I wasn’t sure I could do it to myself.

So because I am a bit of a chicken (Ok so I’m a total chicken) I enlisted the help of 11-year-old Hayley to try out the Vivid Shades Semi-Permanent Hair Color in royal purple. Hayley is my bestie’s daughter and what is cooler to an 11 year old than purple hair right?

Hayley was completely game for the experiment and she was the perfect guinea pig because she has natural blond locks so the color would really stand out on her.

The best part of this is the process is really easy. (She requested we do an ombre look and hey, I’m no colorist, but I gave it my best shot!) 

We started with a cream bleach developer that helps the color be really bright. After rinsing that out, we washed her hair and dried it thoroughly. Next we added the purple color and let it sit for 25 minutes before rinsing and conditioning.

The  oil-rich formulas have no ammonia and no peroxide and are very gentle on the hair so no matter what your age you can color with confidence.

Personally I LOVE it. I am definitely thinking really hard about doing this on myself. Hayley loves it too (and more importantly it’s a hit at school!)

What do you guys think about purple hair?
