DIY: Etude House Bubble Hair Coloring in Sweet Orange

Despite the rains these past few days, it did not stop me from thinking about this SUMMER! I went to the mall and have the urge to color my hair. I immediately visited Etude House Southmall Branch to grab one of their Bubble Hair Coloring for only 378Php. I wanted the Natural Brown color but unfortunately it was out of stock. :( The available colors that day were Deep Black, Wine Red and Sweet Orange. My first Bubble Hair Coloring was in Wine Red but there was no drastic change. :| So I tried the Sweet Orange.

Let's Start! What's inside the box? Pink sachet. - Hair Color Pump bottle. - Mysterious Liquid, the Oxidizer Lavender sachet. - Amazing Treatment Mini booklet. - Instructions written in Korean.  :( Not helpful at all.  Mini Zip Lock. - Gloves and Plastic Cape

Directions, Caution, Main Ingredient and Contents. Located outside the box.

STEP 1:

Put on the gloves and plastic cape. Messy hair. I know. :( Forgive me.

                                                                 

STEP2:

Pour the (1) Hair Color in the (2) Pump Bottle with Oxidizer.

Close the Pump Bottle.

STEP 3:                                                             STEP 4:

DO NOT SHAKE!! Just do this 5 - 6 times only. I'm watching Kris TV while doing this. Haha.

Pump the bottle and you're ready to go! Sorry for the FACE! I look STUPID i know. :(

                                                                   

Waiting Game is ON!

Wait for 30 mins - 1 hour before washing.

More obvious color change. Yey! :)

Verdict Time!

What I love:

• The BUBBLE formula. No need to use a comb/brushes for even application. You just lather it on your hair like you're shampooing. So easy! 
• The SCENT. I don't know if it's just me or anything but at first it smells like a flower but after a while the scent turns stronger. Like the smell in salon when they dye your hair. 
• The Gloves and Plastic Cape. It's all in 1 box. Everything you need is provided for you.
• The A-Mazing Lavender Treatment. It smells so sweet and very calming to your senses. It turns your hair very soft and manageable after wash.

What I hate:

• The Mini Booklet. Well, I know this product is from Korea and maybe that's the reason why the instruction booklet is written in korean. For me, it didn't help me at all.
• The Stinging sensation. Maybe it's just me but I had a stinging sensation while applying it on my hair. I really have a sensitive scalp.
• The Plastic Cape. I know it's on my "What I love" BUT the cape is not sturdy and I stained my tank top even if I had the plastic cape on. Weird.

SCORE: 9/10

My Advice:

• For even application, section your hair. Start from the bottom hair then just add hair from the top little by little. 
• If you have dark color hair for base and you want the color to show more, leave the solution for  1 hr. Just like what I did.
• NOTE TO EVERYONE: If you're going to start applying the hair color you should CHANGE your top with something you wont use anymore.
• DON'T THROW the excess formula! Apply everything on your hair! Don't forget your sideburns and the baby hairs around your forehead.
