What does hair makeup do?

Hair makeup adds color to your crown by coating the outer layer of your hair strands. This means that they don't need to penetrate through your hair layers (like other hair dyes) to give your hair a burst of color. So they DO NOT contain harmful chemicals, such as ammonia and hydrogen peroxide . You also don't have to bleach your hair to get your desired color when using hair makeup. This makes it non-damaging and completely safe to use for all hair types. Curlfit hair makeup even goes the extra mile to include rich ingredients like argan and almond oil (to name a few), in the formula. So silky soft hair is guaranteed and it also leaves your hair hydrated, therefore accentuating your curl pattern.
P.S - Curlfit products are vegan and cruelty free!
How do you use hair makeup
Using hair makeup is a one process application and is super DIY friendly. Plus, it's really fast to do.
Step 1: Prepare the things you need
You don't really need anything special to use hair makeup - even gloves! But when you have purchased your desired hair color(s), always check if your normal hair products are compatible with the hair makeup. Mix a small portion of the color with your hair cream and observe the results. If it forms clumps, then you can leave out applying your creams before coloring your hair and just go straight in with the hair makeup. Don't worry about hydration, Curlfit products moisturize your hair while coloring it.
Step 2: Wash your hair
It's best to use hair makeup on clean detangled hair. This will make the process seamless and easier to apply. Plus, it will last longer.
Step 3: Use a leave-in-conditioner (optional)
If you want to add moisturize before coloring your hair, this is the time to do so. But like we mentioned in step 1, if your creams are not compatible with the color, then you can leave it out. Don't use hair oils! Especially sealing oils. This will aid color transfer and shorten your hairstyle life span.
Step 4: Style your hair
If you're doing a tight ponytail or a colored pineapple, you can do the style before applying hair makeup so you don't have to color your entire head.
Optional Step: Mix your colors (if it implies)
What makes hair makeup super flexible is how customisable the formula is. They follow the basic color wheel. Mixing two hair makeup colors is almost like mixing colors before painting. For instance, if you don't find Aquamarine in the array of hair makeup colors, you can simply mix dark green and blue hair makeup to get that shade. To get rosegold, mix gold hair makeup with pink hair makeup in equal portions. There are so many other shades you can get. For more hair makeup mixes, you can check out the Curlfit community across all social medias.
Step 5: Apply hair makeup
You can do absolutely anything with hair makeup - a subtle tint of your favorite colors, contrasting highlights, a colored twist out, a glorious colored afro - anything you can think of! Unleash your creativity with hair makeup and express yourself through your mane. You can even apply it ontop of an already done hair style (like a wig, extensions, ponytail, pineapple, etc.).
Every drop of Curlfit hair makeup is super-pigmented. So a little goes a long way. Start applying the hair color, section by section and in small amounts. If you want to increase the vibrancy, you can just apply more color.
Step 6: Air dry/ blow dry
Best hair makeup for dark hair
All Curlfit hair makeup products are great for dark hair, because the hair coverage is amazing and the formula super-pigmented. So having jet black hair is not an obstacle. If you are looking for hair color suggestions for dark hair, we say go for gold hair makeup and apply it as a gentle tint that pops under sunlight!

#1 Skunk stripes trend

#2 Underneath hair/ peekaboo hair

Having a blanket of color, hidden behind your head is the best subtle hair makeover there is .... absolutely gorgeous!
#3 Neon Pink and Burgundy hair makeup look

Burgundy hair became the most loved hair color a couple of months ago. That's not a surprise because this shade has been underrated for far too long. It's so pretty! And with a touch of neon pink, it becomes super bright! You can simply achieve this burgundy look with neon pink and burgundy hair makeup from Curlfit.
#4 Purple and blue Galaxy hair

Take your crown to space with this illusion of the Galaxy. We love how she made it a peekaboo look! All you need is blue and purple hair makeup. Just play with it. You can make a section of your hair an ombre of the two colors and another section a random mix of the two shades. The crazier the better!
#5 Honey Brown hair

Wade in a crown of honey (yum!). To get this shade of brown, mix equal portions of ginger hair makeup and brown to a delicious consistency of honey brown.
#6 Two toned hair

A two tone mystery! Pick your two favorite colors and divide your hair into two equal halves - each for the individual colors. You can spice it up and leave two braids infront with the opposite colors.
#7 Ginger hair

You can be a Max Mayfield look alike in a minute with ginger hair makeup. This shade will make you go from calm to fiesty.
#8 Pink E Girl Highlights

In our opinion, pink E girl highlights will never get old. All you need is pink hair makeup and this blog as a guide. Start with coloring your ends and then select strands where the color will go all the way up. Don't forget to color your two front pieces to frame your face!
#9 Colored bangs

We love this grunge colored bang trend. You can use a color 10 shades away from yours to emphasize that color contrast the style gives.
