Love the Smokey Pastel Blue
I've had a few pastels in my hair done in a salon in the past, they were beautiful and took a while to achieve. I honestly didn't have high expectations of a spray in colour.
My hair is platinum in the lengths, the perfect starting shade according to the box.
I washed and towel dried, then sectioned my hair and with a towel over my shoulders began spraying the colour onto my hair and combing through. Right away it's clear that just combing is not sufficient to work the colour in. I rubbed and twisted my hair and added more and more colour until it appeared to be thoroughly covered. Managed to get it on the walls and bathroom door. It wipes off easily, while still wet. I can't imagine trying to apply in the shower as suggested in the instructions as you need to be able to see what you're doing.
After covering the blonde in my hair I blow dried my hair.
The fragrance is nice, not overwhelming. I could feel the product on my hair but not so much that it bothered me.
The shade was exactly the blue I'm always trying to achieve. Pale, silvery blue. Some sections appeared more grey, which I loved, it gave the colour more depth.
My biggest fear was how it would fade. Blue can easily go green on its way out. To my surprise it was almost completely gone after one wash. It may linger more with a milder shampoo.
It took about 1/3 of the bottle, and less than 15 minutes to make the lengths of my hair the pale blue I love. This is something I plan to try in other colours. Super easy and the colour of great. It might be nice if it lasted a bit longer, but as a person who has had colour refuse to leave in the past I appreciate how easily it came out. I can try a range of colours knowing they won't haunt me for weeks afterwards, not to mention just how easy it is to apply.
Very happy with this temporary, spray in colour from Got2be. #got2bmycolour #MEbyME #gotitfree
Denim Blue -- A Good Idea...In Theory
I was very lucky to have been selected by Chickadvisor to try the colour Denim Blue for free. Unfortunately, this product did not work for me, nor would it work for anyone who does not have bleached, natural or dyed light blonde hair (and I'm talking WHITE). My hair takes very well to dyes so I expected a lot more from this.
As for the application, it was a bit messy until you get the hang of it. It is a very wet spray that I did get all over myself and the walls. Luckily, it is very easy to take off with water and a towel. The way I applied the product was by twisting my ends (I went for a dip dye look), and completely saturated the hair. The package suggests to apply this product with damp hair, but I would argue that dry is best. Dry hair allows you to see where you're applying better and seeing that everything is easily coated. I deviated a bit from the instructions believing that letting the product sit for a bit before drying would give better colour pay off.
As for the product itself, it's more of a grey-blue than a denim blue. It is nothing like the colour that is dispensed. When I applied it to my ends, it seemed like it would be well pigmented but unfortunately it isn't. In the past I've customised my own pastel colours with Manic Panic and conditioner, so I know what to expect. I have blonde hair, which is what this product is marketed for, but this did not show for me at all. This is so poorly pigmented that, in my opinion, this would only be effective on pre-lightened or naturally very light blonde hair. I attached an image showing the before and after, and there is no difference other than this product seems to make my hair a cooler tone of blonde (both photos taken in natural sunlight). It's disappointing because it is possible to have pastel shades for ALL blondes (look at hair chalk!), and I hope they redevelop it to add more pigment (because I love the idea of a spray-in temp dye).
Overall, I would not purchase this product again. It is useless for most blondes unless you've purchased a pre-lightening kit or have very very light blonde hair.
Not pretty in pink
I was so excited to try the Got2Be Head Turner temporary hair colour in Cotton Candy. The box showed a pretty pastel pink that said it would last up to 3 shampoos.
The instructions said it could be applied to damp or dry hair so I tried it first on damp hair. The colour wasn't what I expected but it said to dry as normal so I thought it might lighten up when it dried. When it dried it felt terrible and was not lighter. It looked very uneven so I added more. It looked more even but felt even worse.
My bathroom was also covered in pink spray.
The next day I had to wash it and most of the colour washed out immediately. This could be a fun product for someone with white hair who wanted a few streaks but not for all over colour. I will not be purchasing it in the future.

I got it free
I got this free from chick advisor. Results are faint similar to applying hair chalk. Good for teens maybe. I tried cotton candy pink. I would not use this product.
#I got it free at least. It's a fail
I was confident the cotton candy colour advertised could not be achieved with this box dye unless you had white hair to begin with. The results were light and similar to hair chalk.
Good idea just not up to par
I was chosen to try the Denim Blue shade. I was pretty excited about this because I love colour that washes out. I love my blonde hair but I’m always wanting to switch it up a little.
Application: this part was kind of messy because it is a water based spray rather than an aerosol spray. I was able to apply it fairly easy (but I also do my own colour at home pretty often) I did get some on the walls but it came off pretty easy. The colour of the spray is A LOT darker than how it turns out. Brushed it through the ends of my hair (didn’t want to do the whole head in case it didn’t wash out properly because I’ve had that happen before). And blow dried.
After: the ends of my hair felt like I had put a bunch of hairspray in them which sucked. The colour wasn’t super noticeable, it was pretty subtle and I can’t say that anyone noticed the change. I personally liked that it was subtle because I wasn’t ready for OMG BLUE HAIR but if that’s what you want, you’d likely have to use some more product than I did.
It pretty well all came out after the first wash, which doesn’t bother me as it is supposed to be temporary.
I likely wouldn’t purchase this again, it’s a great idea but it just missed the mark a bit.
Just an update for my fine haired friends - be careful using this on your ends. I thought mine had washed out completely, but I ended up with slightly green ends for another week or two.
Great product for a fun change!
Love this product! I tried got2b Head Turner in Candy Cotton shade. It was easy to apply with the spray bottle and lasted me a few shampoos. Very fun product to try. I highly recommend it. I would definitely purchase and recommend others to try it!

Great easy product
This is an easy to use pastel hair colour that lasts 3 washes. I tested it on a couple chunks of my hair and I found that after 1 wash this was mostly washed out.
To use, you simply spray on damp hair, blot away excess with paper towel, brush/comb out to distribute colour, and then blow dry. I found this to be easier to use on a chunk of hair vs your entire head. It was hard to evenly distribute the colour. Also, very, very messy, as it comes out as a very watery spray. The colour was also more purple/violet than blue.
I like this product because it is easy to use.. fun look for a weekend :)
Not as good as I hoped
I was selected to test g2b head turner. I was disappointed how it turned out. I found it to be really messy applying and the colour wasn’t really visible. I was hoping it will be quick and easy.
Fun idea but poor turnout...
I was excited to try the göt2b Head Turner hair color spray in Candy Cotton, as I have never really played around with dyes outside the more natural shade range. After receiving the package from ChickAdvisor and reading the instructions, I was ready to go!
Well...almost.
Being a newbie to spray-in dye, I made sure to read the box, the bottle, and the insert to ensure that something horrible wouldn't happen due to my inexperienced hands. However, I ended up confused. One side of the box said to rinse hair thoroughly after applying colour. Ok! The other side of the box, however, said to leave in and blow dry. Oh, well on to the bottle. Bottle says to rinse thoroughly. Hmm. Insert? A diagram with a woman applying the colour, then standing in the shower. Huh. I looked up a few videos on similar products, and no one seemed to be rinsing out the product after applying it, so I decided to go that route, as since it is supposed to wash out within 3 washes, it makes sense that you wouldn't start by rinsing it, right? Right! Ready to go!
Feeling smug because I just happened to have a pink towel to drape around myself to avoid any potential nuclear pink fallout on my skin, I proceeded to spritz my hair with what I assumed would be a fairly fine mist (although the product is not in aerosol form).
*sppfffttt*
*sppllllrrttthhh...*
*thbbbt*
Ah. Ok, the spray nozzle was not the most user friendly thing ever, and the colour rocketed out in unpredictable fashion, but that's fine since I'm saturating and combing through anyway. The scent was pleasant and non-chemical. About half a bottle later, my hair (fine and somewhat thin) was duly soaked, as was my scalp, bathtub, the walls, some of the floor, and the now even-pinker towel. Excellent, well at least my hair will be good and pink!
And, in certain light, it was. Sort of. More of a tint. Not a tint like you see on sunglasses, but sort of an afterthought that hangs around after the party is over. My hair is a medium golden blonde depending on the light, so I wasn't expecting 'girl on the box pink', but this was more 'put a red sock in a load of grey clothes' pink. So perhaps a bit of a rose gold hint (see photo of first attempt).
Not to be defeated by a less than vibrant result (yes I know, this is pastel, not bright dye), I decided the next day to take it up a level. Obviously I hadn't used enough. This time, to heck with the spray bottle. I carefully pulled my hair back into a ponytail, emptied some of the dye into a little bowl (looks like cherry KoolAid!), and dunked the pony. Submerged it. Swished it. Got a cramp in my arm. Still held it in there. Great! Took the ponytail out of the bowl, let it drip into the sink, then blotted a bit with paper towel and let air dry on the pink towel. This would really show a difference, as my ponytail was completely drenched but the rest of my hair wasn't. There would be obvious delineation where the dye started.
Nope.
At this point I assumed either my hair was simply too dark to really show this colour, or was pranking me. Maybe both. As the photo shows however (2nd attempt) there was honestly no difference. If anything, my hair just looks a bit strawberry-ish.
But the good news was that, as washed out as it looked in my hair, it washed out even easier from the bathtub, walls, floor, towel, and my scalp.
Final thoughts: I'm happy to have tried this product, and on super light hair I think it would be pretty. It just didn't really do much for me. Instructions were contradictory which I feel is an issue. Application was easy but messy, a cream would have been easier. Product was a pretty pink shade on everything but my hair. I'm still smug that I had that pink towel.
