VeganRibs dyes her hair Pink!



Aloha Vegans

I hope you are all well and happy! :) 
Since i was about 16 I have constantly changed the colour of my hair as I just love being bright! I have had pretty much every colour of the rainbow, but my favourite will always be pink! Since I've been teaching/Training to teach over the last 2 years I've had to repress this part of me..and it has sucked..I just want silly hair!!! I am now leaving education as  finally the opportunity to start my dream job as a full time youth worker for a charity has happened! Im sure I will go back into teaching in the future as I have really enjoyed it..but right now..I know that youth work is the right place to be.
This means that I can be a bit more expressive..so I bought the dye and here we are. 

After a really shocking election result I needed a pick me up..so what better way than to dye my hair pink..

When going vegan i never even thought that it would effect this..so i spent a while doing some research about what products to use.

I found that crazy colors..the dye i had always been using was Vegan..someone in a group shared the email from a company..I was BUZZING.. The final question was the bleach!..Smart Beauty, found in my local savers store was the answer, they state their vegan and cruelty free status on their website.

Heres the results:

Pre Dye

Mixing the smart beauty blonde

Bag on the head

Post bleach ginger!..i i wanted to be fully blonde i would need 2 goes i think, but its not great for your barnet!

The Results!! Lovely bright pink!..I also got a hair cut after i had it dyed 

The products I used..Crazy Colors cyclamen and Smart beauty bleach. The hot purple was a bit creamy and didnt really take!!
Overall I am super happy with the results..my hair is a lush pink!! And it was an entirely cruelty free process..Winning

Much Love

Smart Beauty Vegan Hair dye

Aloha my lovely Vegans! 


I have been beyond useless at updating my blog..a mixture of work woes, busyness and my laptop being useless has meant I've got a backlog of blog posts that need updating!
So keep your eyes peeled for more coming soon!

This blog is about hair dye. As an avid dyer of hair I have struggled since going vegan to find something thats ethical and that works for me. I've dabbled with henna and such, but been left disappointed. After some research i found that Smart beauty offer a rainbow of vegan colours.
As I'm still teaching and trying to be professional i cant have my usual variety of bright colours, so I went for this red. I found this brand in in the uk shop savers.
Heres what i thought!



The first time i used this i went for a lighter shade.
It was easy to apply and very gentle on my hair



Pre dye!

During!


Just incase you wanted confirmation of the veganess
The result! The pictures dont really do it justice, it made my hair a really nice shade!


Overall, I liked this dye, but I would have liked it brighter, so see the next pics!!

I tried this deeper shade...

Buzzing,,the results are great...colourful hair..with no harm to animals or me...you can see where my natural hair colour has started to grow..but i love this colour..and im uber happy!!..YAYYY

Hello chins!!!...haha..but you can proper see the red..happy bunny indeed!

Overall I am SUPER happy with the results. Smart Beauty have a huge range of colours..and since I plan on leaving education, I am super excited to try them and get some even brighter hair!

I hope you are all well

Much Love
