How to get the hair

Applying soft pastel chalk to the ends of the model's hair allowed us to play up this spring look without commitment. Similar to your summer boyfriend. You can find soft pastel (not oil!) chalk at your local art store. Take small sections of hair, twist it and run the chalk down the strands. For light blondes, don't wet the hair beforehand; it will stain. For darker hair, slightly wetting it can produce stronger colors.
