Hair Chalking

Creative Director Katie Mulcahy at Lisa Shepherd Salons predict a new Season trend.. 

HAIR CHALKING!

Back in Feb shows and celeb stylists were chalking and now for some fun at home the trend is hitting the streets. Temporary shades on light or dark hair that anyone can do at home and for cheap. Much more of a contrast on lighter hair but all in good fun. Twist or scrunch hair for more pigment payoff.

KATIE'S TOP CHALKING TIPS

Step 1: Choose good quality wax chalk available in art supply and craft shop. Every colour and shade of the rainbow is available, so get creative!

Step 2: This technique works on any length or depth of base hair colour. If applying the chalk to darker shades then spray the hair down with a little water first as this will allow the colour to show through with greater intensity. For light base shades the chalk can be applied to dry hair. Use your imagination...deeper colours on the mid lengths fading to lighter ends creates a VERY cool result.

Step 3: Once the hair is completely dry seal the colour in with a curling iron, straighteners, or hold hair momentarily in the diffuser cup of your hairdryer.
