HOW TO: Blue Gray Hair + Lavender Ombre Extensions

hair game thumb

You guys know I love to play with hair color. I've had pastel hair since Jan 2014. Many of you asked for a hair tutorial, so here it is! Loving this new shade of blue gray.

FYI:
▸ Pravana is a semi-permanent dye and lasts 4-6 weeks (but will fade with each wash)
▸ You must start with blonde hair. Any darker and the color won't show well.
▸ If your hair is pale blonde or white, then the color in the bowl will be the color on your hair. If not… see below.
▸ Know your color wheel (https://bit.ly/1LnyqBm) so you know how to adjust the formula according to your hair color (i.e.: if your hair is more yellow, add more purple)
▸ Nail polish remover will remove dye off ‘most' surfaces (not drywall, so be very careful) – if you stain something, remove it immediately
▸ Have fun!!
