How to use hair chalk sticks?

Published in Hair Coloring 2 mins read

Using hair chalk sticks is a simple process for adding temporary color to your hair.

Hair chalk offers a quick and easy way to experiment with vibrant colors without a long-term commitment. The process is straightforward and primarily involves applying the chalk to slightly wet hair.

Step-by-Step Guide to Applying Hair Chalk

Follow these steps to effectively apply hair chalk sticks, ensuring vibrant color:

  1. Prepare the Hair Strand: Start by selecting the specific strand of hair you wish to color.
    • Crucially, you need to wet the strand of hair you want to chalk. This helps the chalk adhere better and produce a more intense color.
  2. Apply the Chalk: With the hair strand wet, take your chalk stick.
    • Starting at the top of the strand you want colored, gently rub the chalk pastel over the wet strand. Move downwards along the strand, ensuring even coverage.
  3. Alternative Application Method: If you prefer not to wet the entire strand, there's an alternative.
    • You could also try just dipping the tip of the chalk in water and rubbing it on the hair as well. This method wets the chalk directly before application.

Quick Application Methods

Here's a summary of the application techniques based on the reference:

Method 1: Wet Hair Method 2: Wet Chalk Tip
Wet the specific hair strand Do not fully wet the strand
Apply dry chalk to wet hair Dip chalk tip in water
Rub gently from top downwards Rub wet chalk tip onto hair

After applying the chalk, allow your hair to air dry or gently blow-dry it. Style as usual. The color will typically last until your next shampoo.
