New Year, New Hair: Twilight Sparkle Hair

I Bought This

In my neverending quest for unicorn hair, I used some of my leftover Special Effects Blue Haired Freak and a little Atomic Pink and ended up with My Little Pony hair....





I think (and my husband thinks so too... is he a Brony?) that it's reminiscent of Twilight Sparkle's pink and purple streaks, granted my hair is more blue than hers... but anyway....




Basically, when I was about to dye my hair I sectioned off two small pieces on each side and left them untouched while I applied Blue Haired Freak to the rest of my hair. I then Applied Atomic Pink to the two undyed sections and separated them with claw clips, making sure the blue and pink didn't touch while processing. Both dyes I diluted slightly with a bit of conditioner. I feel that this helps the colour to soak in and lock onto the hair shaft, while also giving your hair a nice little deep conditioning treatment. I left the dye in for about 4 hours and then washed it out with cool water.

I'm really loving the contrast between the rich blue and the bright pop of pink, the bit of purple on the other side. It looks magical! 












I am super in love with my new hair and I can't wait to see what it looks like when it fades a bit! I am sooooo surprised that the two bottles of Special Effects dye have lasted this long. I have used them on my hair and my friend Desiree's hair about 6 or 7 times now and they're only just down to the last little bit in the bottle. I don't think I can go back to any other dye now... It also lasts really long and fades evenly to a nice pastel colour. I bought mine from ebay seller 'Fayngz' but they seem to only have a few shades in stock right now. I have seen them on Amazon as well, but that seller had the best price and they were shipped super fast.

I want to try some of their other shades as well, have you used any of the Special Effects dyes? Let me know if there are any you recommend.
