FAQ About Blue Hair
Does blue hair fade quickly?
The longevity of your blue hair color depends on your chosen shade and hair care routine.
A pastel blue hair color like Periwinkle usually fades much faster than a dark blue hair color like Sorceress.
Blue hair color can be high-maintenance, but it's SO worth it! Pro tip: Wash your hair less frequently with cold water and use color-safe products to ensure your blue hair color sticks around as long as possible.
What skin tone works with blue hair?
Any! It's all about finding your perfect shade for YOU. A good rule of thumb is to use cooler blues for cool undertones and warmer teals for warm undertones.
Can I go blue without bleaching?
Yes, you can achieve some blue hair color without bleaching, but with limitations.
If you have darker hair (level 6-9), colors like Aquamarine or Sorceress can create a subtle blue tint that's visible primarily in sunlight.
For more vivid results, like soft pastel blue or bold electric blue, bleaching your hair to level 10 platinum blonde is necessary.
Pro tip: Always perform a strand test first to ensure the color turns out exactly how you want it!
