Hair chalk is all the rage these days, so when Lady Jayne released their cost effective range of hair chalks, I was thrilled to try them out! Lady Jayne has released four colours in their Colour Bomb range, Mystic Green, Midnight Violet, Rebel Pink and Candy Lady. Being that all four colours are pastel, I was a tad worried they wouldn't show up on my dark brown hair! But, I had my sister over and we had a play with the colours... and here are the results!
First up we tried a quick little braid! The ombre look is so popular, particularly with hair chalk, so I wanted to try something a little different! With the applicators (which just clamp your hair with the chalk in between so the colour rubs off) it was pretty easy to apply! However with my darker hair, I did need to reapply a few times over to create a richer look!
Upon removing the braid, I was left with gorgeous bright streaks! I particularly love this look! I have fairly long hair, and I found that just by doing this one whole streak, I used up majority of the hair chalk included in the kit! There was some left over, but not a great deal. So, I would probably say that using this on your hair in parts is far easier than trying it out on your whole head!
Midnight Violet was my favourite, so rather than doing streaks again, I tried to colour my fringe! I found it a lot harder to manage on shorter hair, as the applicator is a bit too big in comparison to my fringe! However, once I got the angle right it became a quick job, and I didn't use anywhere near as much of the product, so I had a lot left over for other times!

Overall, my sister and I had a lot of fun applying this to my hair, and I really loved the results! I found that majority of the colour stayed put until I washed my hair, although brushing it through definitely made the colour more subtle and not so bright. The Lady Jayne Colour Bomb hair chalks are a great way to change up your look without going for something more permanent! Afterwards there was a little bit of mess, but I just threw an older towel down on the floor and it was fine! The packaging says to be wary of the colour staining clothes in case you do happen to get some on you, but I had no problems with that at all.
The Lady Jayne Colour Bomb Applicator & Refills cost $9.99 each from anywhere that sells Lady Jayne!

Have you tried the Lady Jayne Colour Bomb hair chalk yet? If so, what are your thoughts? Do you like the idea of having fun coloured hair?

These sound great! I have a pink Kevin Murphy colour bug, but it actually barely shows up on my black hair, and fades off really quickly. These sound much better (for the price!) and seems so much easier to apply with the applicator!

Ohh that's a shame! The price of having dark hair! :(
DeleteThese are pretty decent for the price though, I love how much it shows up on darker hair! And the applicator is SO easy haha! I haven't tried the colour bug but I've heard similar stories :P
xx
WOW your hair looks great!

Thanks so much xx
DeleteLove the long streaks of colour in your hair! I really didn't think these would work on dark hair... now I want to try them out too! I think I like the pink best, but all the colours look great! X

Thanks Bec! I had the same fear, but they turned out great! xx
DeleteGreat review, Jasmine. I love the look of the pastel braid in your hair and your girlie afternoon with your sister sounds like it was a lot of fun! X
ReplyDeleteAw thank you Soph! The braid was my sister's idea, she's so much more inspired than me haha! xx
DeleteWow it looks so pretty and seems really affordable too! It's great that it works on dark hair :) I may even give it a try!

Ohh let me know how you go if you do try it! I was surprised at how well it showed up on my hair! xx
DeleteOoh these look fun! Would be great for a costume or Halloween. Love the rainbow braid!
ReplyDeleteOh so true! Come Halloween I'll have to have some fun with the green maybe haha! xx
DeleteGorgeous looks! I'd like to try these out because I've wanted crazy-colored hair for so long, but I don't think these products are available here :(
ReplyDeleteThank you! And oh what a shame! :( xx
DeleteI have the Kevin Murphy Colour Bug in pink, but it was so hard to maneuver around on the head! These applicators look way easier :) Good for a quick fix of colour for a festival :)

These are SO easy! You'd love them Kate! xx
DeleteI'm so impressed with how bright they are in your hair! I have dark hair too so I haven't even thought about buying them. Maybe I will now.
ReplyDeleteI was the same, when they offered to send them to me, I figured "ohh this will be a test in writing a negative review for a gifted product" haha but lucky I didn't have to because they actually work good! :P Definitely try them out, they're so nifty! xx
Deletewow....they look so pretty and plus point is that they are affordable too.....great......xoxoxo.....^_^
ReplyDeleteThanks so much lovely xx
DeleteOh my gosh, I love the effect you got with the braid, it's beautiful and so fun! :) x
ReplyDeleteAw thanks Candice! It was my sister's idea! xx
DeleteGreat Post! You look gorgeous, the colours, and the braid and the gorgeous lip colour. Possibly love this look more than the green hair = O
ReplyDeleteI would try these out but my hair is very black :(
xx
Thanks so much! I miss my green hair haha! I have a feeling these would still show up really good on black! xx
DeleteI keep meaning to pick this up and ALWAYS forget to get it when I'm in Priceline. Must go in tomorrow :)
ReplyDeleteMy local is always sold out! Hopefully you love them when you get them! xx
DeleteThis looks very very cool and your hair looks awesome! I want to try these out for a quick colour fix that'll be gone at the end of the day :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! It's nice to know it'll just wash out hehe xx
DeleteThese look amazing on you!
ReplyDeleteAw thanks so much hun! xx
DeleteWhat's the difference between using normal pastels and lady jayne's ? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteWow. For years, I have been wanting to try crazy-colored hair, but I've never gotten around to it. And now that I'm working, it's even harder to pull it off. I wish they'd make this available in my country so I can try it out!
