These Temporary Hair Colors Are Actually Really Good, You Guys

No-commitment color that slays
This liquid hair chalk reminds us of when we used to color our hair with markers. The key difference is that the chalk pen is actually specially designed for your hair. And unlike traditional hair chalks, there's no messy application or crumbly mess: Just run the pen's nib down hair, et voilà. The color is pigmented enough that it will show up on locks from blond to brown. (Yeah, we see you, brunettes.)

Lime Crime makes more than rainbow lipsticks: The brand also has a range of rainbow unicorn hair colors, like these quick-to-use mists. Spray the temporary hair color all over or use it on sections to create highlights or an ombre look. Another thing we love? The vegan product is suitable for all hair colors.

Good Dye Young Poser Paste, $18
Don't assume this is for art projects because of the jar and "paste:" It's a washable hair color that delivers an electrified look that's suitable for all hair colors and textures. Additionally, it offers medium hold like a gel. The vegan, cruelty-free product is available in all colors of the rainbow. Choose one, two or them all.
