Do you sigh when you look into a mirror? Ever wish you could add just a little excitement to your staid look? Well, why not try adding a pop, or two, or three of color to your hair for a dash of drama with a temporary shade?  We’re never too old for a hot dramatic change!

Temporary hair color is just that, temporary! Unlike permanent hair colors that are runny, messy, and involve mixing, many of the temps deliver a punch of color via spray that will not wash out until your next shampoo. The temps are easy to use and the extremely pigmented colors do not have to be pre-mixed. Many now come in formulas that are sweat-proof, water and transfer-resistant and in colors from subtle to extreme.

So if you’re looking to take a mini vacay from ho-hum hair, check out these fun temporary hair color products:
