If you’ve been seeing all of the vibrant color trends and are curious to give it a try this summer, but DON’T want to subject your hair to bleach, then you’ll be happy to know that Alexis here got this look without lightening her hair first. This damage-free color comes courtesy of Maybelline’s Color Tattoo cream eyeshadows, which you can find at drug stores for under $7 and come in a variety of fun colors. Alexis says the eyeshadow did not cause any dryness, however the color did rub off to the touch.
She simply rubbed a small amount of the eyeshadow into sections of dry hair. Watch the video to see how she got the look.

I shampoo and deep condition my hair every 7-10 days. I pre-poo with a bit of water and finger detangle. Then I put my hair in about 8 braids that are loose at the roots so I can properly cleanse my scalp. Products tend to vary. But lately, I have been using Carol’s Daughter’s Monoi Shampoo and Conditioner. I clarify my scalp with ACV 2 times a month. After applying my SheaMoisture Raw Shea Butter Restorative Conditioner leave-in, I blow dry my hair on warm (my hair is thick and will never dry over night”>, making sure to give each section a cool shot to close the hair follicle. I massage my scalp and seal my ends with Jamaican Black Castor Oil. I usually do braid outs to achieve a voluminous and textured look. I’m not really a fan of super perfect, defined hair for me.
