Temporary hair color wax is a pliable, pigmented substance applied to hair to impart a temporary hue. Unlike permanent hair dyes, this wax adheres to the hair shaft without penetrating the cuticle, allowing for easy removal with shampoo.
Temporary hair color waxes have become increasingly popular due to their versatility and affordability. They offer a low-commitment way to experiment with different hair colors, create vibrant highlights, or conceal gray hairs. The origins of temporary hair color waxes can be traced back to ancient Egypt, where henna was used to decorate hair and beards.
