Vegan Hair Dye

Recently @vegbunny asked me what kind of #vegan #hairdye I use or recommend ... I have used different kinds of vegan hair dye; special effects, manic panic, pravana and raw. My favorite and the one I have been using the last year or so has been RAW and nothing else. It says it last 3-6 weeks depending on how often you wash your hair.. but I can maintain it in my hair for a few months and still be all kinds of bright fun colors! (washing with ice cold water every other day or as long as I can go) Over time it does fade as do all semi-permanent, or demi-permanent hair colors do but it fades slower then most and I actually enjoy watching what color my hair turns. I always start off super deep dark purple than fade over time but always still receive hair complements. People must think I dye my hair every week, because that's how often they ask, but its just when I wash it, it fades a bit more each time. @vegbunny also asked where she could obtain some, and I purchase mine at hot topic its 12.99 (14 after tax) but worth it.

Cruelty Free Hair dye is the way to go! also my hair never feels dry or dull.. it almost feels healthier after I freshen it up with some raw! and I use the color named 'purple punch' its the brightest purple, they do have some brand new colors I am tempted to try tho, lavender and mullberry(sp). I have also used raw color shades other then purple so if you are curious, just ask! I have used other brands colors but they don't last as long, fade quicker, and my hair isn't as soft, which is why I am a RAW Hairdye lover!

I also recommend the longer and brighter you want your hair color to last that you wash your hair in cold water! its actually better for your hair then hot even if your hair isn't purple!

ps. I am writing this blog as I am getting my hair done by one of my best friends @msmandydevine, vegetarian herself but she dabbles in the vegan world more then the average tarian! I will post pictures later if you care to see my new hair or perhaps I will change my default picture to represent the new hair do!

last I would like to comment that its a hot day in seattle to be wearing a black cape! melting in the name of pretty colorful hair :)
