   Although you have the freedom, you should consider the color that fits you.You can choose any color of your liking but consider these tips when figuring out the kind of hair chalk you should use.

Only buy hair chalks from trusted shops to ensure safety. Also avoid buying oil-based pastel chalks, because they can stain clothes. this is a recommended hair chalk set.

   Hair chalking is not usually for a large portion, but only for the hair ends or just to accentuate or highlight some parts of it. If you choose to dye the whole hair, expect to consume a lot of time and more hair chalks from just accentuating it.

4. Get a small bowl with lukewarm water and a clean paint brush.Soak a small portion of chalk into the bowl. Nevertheless, before you start, you should also check specific chalking instructions on your hair chalk product label. Using the paint brush, dip it to the wet chalk and paint the section of the hair you want to dye.

In case of long-haired men who like straightening their hair, they need to blow dry it slightly first before straightening it. Straightening or curling it actually helps to keep the color.
