Introduction: Pink - The Color of Whimsy and Wonder
Oh hey, gorgeous! Got a minute? Let's talk about turning that lovely hair of yours into a pastel pink wonder. Think it's too much of a fairy tale? Well, not anymore! With Linange Color Gel, that soft, rose-tinted hair is not just a dream. This semi-permanent color miracle is all about giving you that perfect hue without playing the harsh chemical game. And, guess what? It's packed with goodies like elastin, ceramides, and hyaluronic acid to keep your hair looking not just fab but also feeling like silk.
So, ready to pink up your life? Here’s your backstage pass to achieving a pastel pink that would make even the flowers jealous.
The Prep Talk: Your Hair, The Canvas
First things first, let’s get your canvas ready. If you’ve got a darker base, you might need to pre-lighten your hair to get the true pastel payoff. Remember, the lighter the base, the brighter the bloom. We recommended the Linange Bright & Lift Lightener. And, just like painting a masterpiece, prepping is key. Make sure your hair is clean, dry, and ready to absorb some pink goodness.
Mixing the Magic Potion
Now, let's mix it up! With Linange Color Gel, the ratio is your potion spell - 1 part Color Gel 0.04 to 3 parts Clear and Color Gel Activator. Think 2 oz. of 0.04 gel with 4 oz. of Clear and 6 oz. of Activator. Give it a good mix in an applicator bottle to avoid any patchiness in the potion.
Application: Painting the Dream
Time to paint the town pink! Apply the mixture evenly on your hair, and let the magic unfold. If your hair is wet, it's all about enhancing and revitalizing the tone, with an application time of 5 to 20 minutes, depending on how porous your hair is. But for dry hair, we’re talking about neutralizing and intensifying, so leave it on for a solid 20 minutes to let the pink really pop.
Rinsing: The Grand Reveal
Tick-tock, time’s up! Rinse out the color and follow up with a gentle Kolorplex Shampoo and Kolorplex Mask to lock the color. It’s all about locking in that color while giving your hair the after-party it deserves.
Customizing Your Shade: Pink, But Make It You
Feeling creative? Why not customize your shade! By adding a percentage of CLEAR to your mix, you can dial up the brightness or soften it down. Want that extra gloss? Slide in some CLEAR gloss treatment to make your hair shine without altering the color.
The Grand Finale: Rocking Your Pastel Pink
And voila! You’ve got yourself a head full of pastel pink that's bound to turn heads. Remember, with great color comes great responsibility. Keep your pink perky with color-safe shampoos and masks, and a touch-up routine that keeps those roots in check.
